    Uae4all Gp2x 0.7.2

    hehe, I'm on many forums, but a double post inside the same post, that's a first for me :) Anyway Gods is confirmed stuck after loading graphic on 0.7.0. Haven't installed 0.7.1 yet.... work ya know...

    D-pad Vs Joystick

    The point isn't preservation of energy, it's precise control so you don't lose in a game due to hardware quirks. In fact, if the deadzone was big enough it would be more precise. Proof: Play a platformer. Try nudging closer and closer to the edge of a platform until you only have the toes on...

    Just A Question From A Noob..

    Emulating a console requires that it's substantially slower than GP2x. The other alternative is that it's about as fast, but have no real differences from GP2x. If the CPU isn't ARM then it can't be done. I'm afraid I don't 'get' any stab at humor there might be there drIan ?

    GP2X What Rgba Format Do You Use (non-sdl)?

    I say, start with the most luxurious solution you can think of and see where it goes! But also consider the interlace type effect of the screen (30Hz?), which might affect realtime dithering. To get 100% control of dithering over time, may I suggest a custom graphics converter? From 8888 to...

    Gp2x Hardware Reference Manual

    Well, the Wiki is a gold mine for the reference stuff and very much needed. But it's a too big step for many to take on the entire chip set and learning how they all interact, and then spend a bunch of time experimenting with their great hardware-close routine that will boost performance. An...

    Convince Me Into Buying A Gp2x

    And my advice as collector: never sell your GP32. ;)

    Amazing Price For Linux Laptop!

    Everyone looks for fakes :) It's a sign of the times I guess... :/ When it gets showed on a consumer electronics type show and someone cams it and posts it on Youtube, I'll buy one. Until then, I'm looking for the $199 Asus eee pc, but the 10" one. Or a tablet pc. I'm interested in this topic...

    How Would You Describe The Gp2x...

    Linux Entertainment Handheld. PSP can't dream of running anything OS-like.

    Convince Me Into Buying A Gp2x

    Haven't read all the replies but on the topic, buy a GP2x because it has raw power for other than, you know, 3D fluff racing/shooter games. It really has the potential for mindblowing 2D pixel wizardry with those CPU cores. Some stuff realize that potential, many don't, yet. You won't see...

    Best Games -all Genres, All Systems

    I come from Amiga, so fave shooters are Hybris and Battle Squadron. Better than any shooter on many other platforms imo. My alltime fave, all platforms, is Gravity-Force by Stephan Wenzler. Pixel perfect control (physics), ugly graphics that you love if you play Twin Peaks music while playing...

    Gpsp Has Improved Diagonal Stick Response

    It is. And it can't be solved in hardware. It's all about the software that interprets the joystick input. If you have a game where you guide the 'ship' let's say, in circles, then no problem. (Like Gyruss or Time Pilot in MAME, for example.) Any attempt to 'fix' joy input in hardware or...

    GP2X Official Sdl Support For Gp2x

    If you dislike c, the JEDI sdl project supposedly has GP2x support. I've yet to see something coded with it though. In the mean time, FPC with arm-linux will compile Delphi SDL stuff for GP2x by simply adding two lines.

    Gp2x Hardware Reference Manual

    I think I understand what xampi wants, since I'm from the Amiga scene myself and Amiga H.R.F. was written by my old boss, Jez San. 'Tis a well written piece because it's clear, concise and complete, and both list the hw stuff AND has overview and asm examples written by someone knowing the...

    Uae4all Gp2x 0.7.0

    Now THAT's a facelift! :) The blitter improvements really aren't minor, gave a good boost to my BlitterSweet amiga demo. Had hopes of getting Gravity-Force <3 to run, but still hangs on level load (mission). I believe Stephan Wenzler relied on Kick 1.2 contents for the track routines, since...

    Acorn Archimedes Emulator?

    Weee-e-e-e-ell if that shouldn't be possible, why not archive old threads? ;) Hehe, didn't notice the date, however Zarch is one of those games that people keep coming back to time after time. So any postings about it I consider timeless :ph34r:

    Your 4gb Card

    Why only one card?? :) 2GB ones are dirt cheap now. Pretty anti-DRM discussion here, but I'll go along ... :P How about every game Rare Games have ever made and all the emulators required to run them? B) Just forwarding a rumor from a programmer now, but apparently Nokia is re-releasing N-Gage...

    Puck's Usb Joystick Lib Fix!

    Great work! Just one thought, pretty much every game in an emulator for a console that only supports joysticks with 1 fire button (phew!) will need to have diagonals pressed simultaneously. Simply because up on the joystick is jump in most (all?) platformers, like Turrican on UAE4all. Some of...

    Coding Gods?

    That's a bit too cynical. I hasten to add that I don't know what organizations you have in your country. Of course some are con artists, but it's also true that many of the international organizations are not, and that naturally a (too) large chunk goes to the organization. It costs money to run...

    Gp2x - Basic Info Faq

    I noticed that the SOC .PDF you linked to requires Korean charset on my Acrobat. (I'm assuming it's not _written_ in Korean :P) I'll see if updating Acrobat fixes it, but if it requires searching for some plugin and installing it, not a lot of people will be able to read it. Humble suggestion...
