    Ok, Weirdest Search Results Ever

    Hey, go easy Johnny, this is one of the rudest forums I visit, I must say. I was more about the goofy results, not decoding sub(super?)-text messages. Honestly if I knew of such a locale, would I be bringing it up in the first place? Forgive my deductiveless-ness, Watson. Might as well try...

    Ok, Weirdest Search Results Ever

    Oh, I did put in a "32" there didn't I... whoops! Still, it's a funny search result all the same, the most disassociated results I have ever managed to conjure up - I should win some kind of award! What do you mean about ".com"? Is there some other stealth Google I have managed to utilize...

    Ok, Weirdest Search Results Ever

    http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=mame+gp32x+torrent ...quick, what do 7th Day Adventists, bovine oil, freeze dry machines, and research papers on "The Terminator" NOT have in common. Give up? They all have NOTHING to do with rom torrents! Thanks Google!!! Thanks for the laugh, anyway...

    Aleph One Port

    Thanks for that info. I actually did poke around afterwards and find that. Which makes me ask, how come such *simple* info couldn't have been written into an extremely short "READTHISFIRST.txt" file? I mean, come on, renaming half a dozen files? How hard is that? That and the button...

    Aleph One Port

    I have the same problem w aleph1, altho the 2nd and 3rd seem to get up and running. But the first one is the one I want to try the most! Could anyone give better fix advice than "muck around"?!?! Please, that's not very descriptive or helpful in the least! No offence, I just wouldn't know...

    Mame Rom Problem

    Bwahahaha! Cruis'n World on the GP2X!!! Oh, ok, whew, sorry.... My more-than-slighly-dated 1.8GHz AMD gets only 50% framerate when running CW on MAME. It's a fully-modeled 3-D environment game (albeit with software rendering) commercially released in 1996 and not ported to MAME until 1998...

    Q About The Gp's Version Of Nethack

    Another quirk - there is supposed to be teleport-control between levels for characters that have the teleport-control attribute and try to teleport when confused (way obscure stuff, I know!). This control option is not offered in this port. I know you have used the vol +/- button to control...

    Q About The Gp's Version Of Nethack

    While you're looking throught the code, could you also check whether it is possible to dig a hole under where you're standing? I haven't been able to use a pick or wand of digging to dig a hole directly under myself (to fall through to the next level intentionally). I have read about it...

    Q About The Gp's Version Of Nethack

    I can't seem to get any protection from writing Elbereth, even when engraving into the stone floor. Was it removed from the GP's verson?

    Joystick Broken, Unresponsive

    Well, to follow up, I was looking at it a bit more (actually hadn't put the paper in yet, had just raised the stick physically), was *about* to put the paper in, when a whole 1/3 section of the pole piece sheared off. So this apparently was what was making the pushing not connect, it was...

    Joystick Broken, Unresponsive

    Thanks to you all for your input. It turns out to actually be the cap after all - I pulled it off, and there was a little deterioration on one edge of the pole-base of the joystick. This indeed allowwed the pad to tilt too far, touching the faceplate and not allowing the motion to be fully...

    Joystick Broken, Unresponsive

    Oh well, here we go. My joystick is extremely unresponsive when pushing left, probably 4 out of 5 pushes to the left go unregistered. I blasted it with the air duster can, which made it about 50% better for about 1 minute, probably. I tried to disassemble the unit, to swab the joystick base...

    Question On Mame Gp2x 2.4

    You know, I totally forgot MAME had savestates, but you have reminded me. I for one am getting a little fed up with all this talk of "cheating" when saving. It's as if we are supposed to forget that computers have the ability to retain and restore data. (It's slightly OT, but I'm trying to...

    Darker On The Gp2x

    Magic Ripper does a one-pass encode? And the only way to control filesize is by manually adjusting the DivX codec using a bitrate calculator? That is really oldschool, plus a lot of manual work, and the one-pass encode is simply unacceptable and totally undesireable. You really want your...

    Darker On The Gp2x

    Proably not a good idea to do any filtering/adjusting of video unless you absolutely have to. Dark video gamma on LCD screens is an infamous problem, I have had LCD screens longer than most people and have been wrestling with it forever. It will be much better if you can find a solution that...

    "hacking" Nethack

    Well thank you for taking my topic seriously! I mean that seriously. Yeah I hear you, I can definitely see the thinking behind the original mode of play. I must say, I was getting better even after a dozen or so games. It's possible I have been conditioned by other multi-save games, but then...

    "hacking" Nethack

    Right, well neither is calling for the closing of a legitimate topic before it even gets addressed (quite politely and legitimately by the developer himself, if I am not mistaken). %^/

    "hacking" Nethack

    Thanks for the insight from the dev (?) here. I am getting better at the "manual" savestates, it was more a problem with working out the clunky copy/paste of the GP's Explorer, but as you say, it's getting better. Also, it wasn't my intention to make a comparison to Diablo! I like Nethack...

    "hacking" Nethack

    Nethack is really enjoyable for me, very oldschool D&D fun, but it is totally exasperating that there are not multiple savestates in the program. It's basically, play until you die, then start a new game. I personally don't have the time to be starting from Level 1 every 30 minutes! I'd like...
