Nope, I'm adding extra stuff to it

There's currently only one guaranteed way of becoming a tester and getting access to the pre-release versions, and that way has been posted on the main news page and the homepage of SquidgeSNES (and is still on the homepage of SquidgeSNES)

done

Can't find the way...
But, I'll go ahead and guess that it involves PayPal?

extra stuff......savestates perhaps? *crosses fingers*

 

[Paradox]

i cant find it either, how do you become a tester? i guess donators get access to the beta's i suppose.

Im borrowing another 256mb sd card, yay! So now i can use my 2x... anyway
Just a little problem.. Havent seen anyone else with this problem but i guess ill ask.


When I try to load squidgesnes my gp2x just shows a black background with a bit of white writing, then it skips to the squidge background and returns to my main memory. Yes i got the rom and skin folder in the same dir.


Maybe one of these are one of my problems?
Its in Games dir.
It also has my drmd, and bor in same directory.
Batteries are at Medum Power
I got 4.13 mb of space left on my sd card.
super mario all stars + world rom
super mario world rom
terranigma rom

Anything else I need to install to get it going? I read the readme and baffled myself here. B)

thanks!

when i was making my skin for SSNES i found that when some skin images where not done right (too big, too small, missing, wrong format, corrupt, etc) then it didnt load the skin after the black screen

OK, if you can't figure out how to become a tester, here are a few simple facts to help you along:
1) Squidge wants money.
2) People want to test.
3) People pay money for things they want.
4) Donations are a way of satisfying points 1, 2 and 3.

(If I'm wrong, you can hit me, Paradox)

yeah i know


but i dont "want to test" so i can play with the latest features, i was thinking more along the lines of actually testing it thoroughly and reporting bugs and such to make the emulator overall better, which to me is more of a job than having any fun

Might I also Add that I use firmware 1.2.1 Succesfully upgraded and im using the icons that rokd made.

Paradox: If you want to do that, talk to a developer personally about things they're working on but haven't released, and if they're in need of testers, they'll let you.

 

[Paradox]

have you tried with everything default?

batteries wont matter on medium power, or low for that matter

space on sd card wont matter

ehm...try without anything else in the squidge snes folder?

​

God im such a noob... I figured out the problem.. The icon names in the icon pack that he made are named wrong so thats why it didnt boot up

Luckily your post made me think of that, thanks!

 

[Paradox]

yeah, it seems really dependant on the skin, if any bit of it is buggered it wont load at all, rather than just not load that 1 skin file or something

Hmm.. I replaced the orig ones with them now and they show up all distroted in black,grey and other colors -.-

 

[daclassicgamingmaster]

omfg yes I cant wait! Squidge, have my babies FIRST!

im waking up bright and early tomorrow to grab this. Thank for everything man. NK snes.....rest in peace.

donations are afoot

 

[rokdcasbah]

is it my icons that are named wrong? what should i name them?

 

[Drak]

​

Yours are named:
settings
savestate
return
reset
loadstate
loadrom
file
exit

The basic ones are:
settings
resetsnes
loadrom
exit
continue

so basically return[continue], and reset[resetsnes] are the culprits.

also, i dont know if its just me, but i have them all with basic names, but they dont show up properly, they are just blurs of grey+black :huh:

Either way, I want to use your icons, they look so neat.

Edited for my horrible spelling

last i knew, inopia was updating the menu code. so if you're using 0.33 those aren't going to work just yet. but they will soon i think. but i've updated the filenames, so thank you for the help, drak.

How do you think this emu will perform after sound and transparencies are added?  I

It'll probably run like a snail through treacle

Still, we have upto 266Mhz, so it might not be that bad.

​

Do you ever think SNES will be anywhere near full speed with sound and transparencies at 200 MHz or is that a pipedream? Do you think the only way to get decent full SNES on a portable will be on the PSP? 266 MHz is not practical on the GP2X as the battery life sucks now at 200 MHz. At 266 it will last like 15 minutes.

Will the second core ever be usefull in speeding this up or is it too limited to use for this?
