    GP2X How Do You Change Surface Color?

    Have you played around with pixel manipulation yet? This tutorial is pretty good at explaining how to know the exact location of each pixel within the pixels array of your surface. By returning instead of setting the element, you have a "getpixel" and a "putpixel" method. I haven't been using...

    Adding 2nd Controller

    Couldn't you use some ingenious wiring to go directly in the EXT?

    Ssh Into Gp2x

    You could, but why not just telnet ;) (to self: ooh, pedant!) If you turn on the "advanced" part of the system settings menu, you can activate the telnet server. Try this: http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?showt...amp;st=30&# I started writing an in-depth guide a while back, will have to...

    A Game And A Program

    Hand-held real-time translators (even speech-to-speech) are advancing extremely rapidly. There was a news story a couple of months back of a pototype that was announced as "flawless" (Chinese to English and back again) - but I didn't see any write-up of the device in use, so probably a...

    Should The Gp2x Be Bought?

    http://wiki.gp2x.org/wiki/Getting_started_...P2X_development ;) You'll need to pick a language, though. Probably best to go the C/C++ route and read up on SDL. There are some great SDL tutorials around and you can get a simple image viewer running in a matter of hours. Best bets: Use a PSU and...

    A Game And A Program

    Since you always seem to have so much time and willingness ;) why not make the graphics first and find a developer who's interested? :P I'd have a quick stab at it, but Vynx would have my balls for not focussing on the simple RTS :ph34r: Edit: Since when did "focus" have an "x" in it? O_o

    The Essential 50

    Not that one. OXO was almost 10 years before Spacewar! and there was a "missile simulation game" 5 years before that (according to wiki)

    Slow To Load Films

    :o What?! How long /are/ these films? I encode my films at 320x240 (or as close as possible) and even 1h30 to 2h films load in well under a minute (though some refuse to resume or skip until you've watched the first minute).

    Define Retro Gaming

    So what's real retro, then? EDSAC!? (that was the first computer to run a game, if you didn't know)

    Gpx2 Has Just Broke

    And we're a forgiving bunch - we've seen worse trolling ;) Is it a Mk2 (is the back label in Korean)? If so, you shouldn't be getting any USB issues. Until I bought a dirt-cheap SD reader I was using the GP2X, but it's not as fast as a dedicated reader (which is fair enough). But now I code for...

    Gp2x Community Game Contest!

    I like it, sounds good (sorry, Yay!). On the financial side, even donations in to a pot would work. With 1st place getting 50%, 2nd 35% and 3rd 15% (or whatever).

    What model do you have? Sounds like your headphone socket needs fixing

    Someone's Dissing The Gp2x!!!!

    (IANAL) Actually, it's a pretty grey-area legally. Just because no one (as far as I'm aware) has been taken to court for it, doesn't mean it's legal. Copying your own CDs and DVDs became illegal in many countries over the last few years because the courts decided that the classic "personal...

    New Firmware Soon!

    *sings: Ca-ndy!* http://archive.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,52,1603 ;) It'd be interesting to know what they're planning for this release; there are some improvements needed, but I wouldn't think anything big would be completed since 2.0. New codecs, maybe?

    Herd Any Good Jokes Recently?

    I'll attempt one, then (no promises): Superman had clocked off for the day and decided to see if Catwoman wanted to go to the pub with him. He'd secretly fancied her for ages and decided that he'd try it on tonight. As soon as he gets to Catwoman's place, though, he sees her leaving all...
