Gp2x Handy V0.1d

[tuskenraider2k]

I have updated the lynx emulator. It's a bit slower but two bugs are solved (screwed sometimes ingame gfx & loading screens) & added cpu speeds 250mhz and 256mhz

Further more I have uploaded the sources. This is my first release. It is surely not that easy to compile [cut] :rolleyes:

This is great news, this is my favorite emulator on the 2x, keep up the good work

This version just hangs on the loading screen for me.. I did a completely new install and just copied my roms and boot image over. Any ideas what could be wrong?

Edit: I just copied over the gpe from the previous version and it's working fine so I'm sure it's not something I buggered up.

oO god hates you? I dunno... try reformatting your SD card...

EDIT: Oh, you already solved the problem... never mind.

 

[krosfyah]

Nope didn't solve it.. I meant that the older version works fine. Still not sure why the new one won't.

Cool thanks for the update. Good to see it.

Maybe you could use the MMU hack in future versions to speed it up? May be fullspeed then, it is close now.

wow! really? i must admit, the lynx completely bypassed me as a nipper.

think i might have seen one running....once.

i had a quick search but nothing came up....

Thanks for that. You weren't joking.. a very interesting build setup, although I've seen many harder

I'm looking forward to actually playing it at lunchtime.

Excellent news! I've actually reverted back to my real lynx at the moment because the emulator crashes sometimes in Rampart*. Do you want to know what error is displayed? Are you planning to do more releases?

*Might also have something to do with my gp2x being currently bricked.

 

[dosteridge]

Here is an excellent site with details of all the Lynx games, with screenshots, etc.

http://www.atariage.com/software_list.html?SystemID=LYNX

My personal favourites are:
Rampart (played several times a week still!)
Joust
Scrapyard Dog
Xenophobe
Lemmings (excellent version optimized for a handheld)

There is also an awesome updated version of the arcade BattleZone...

Yes some great games there I forgot to mention.

Just out of interest, does anybody else have Zalor Mercenary crash about half way through the third level or do I just have a bad rom?

Edit: can somebody tell me how to use this quote thing properly!

I love the Lynx. That's why I use a real one.

same here, it is wonderful and I got many of the really good games, however, battery life is a problem...

Ive still got mine aswell, and a fair few games B) The battery life is laughable, my parents used to have to remortgage their house to keep me in batteries, until they discovered the ac adaptor

And to think people moan about the battery life on the 2x

I've had my Lynx out recently as well. My favorites are,
Stun Runner
Blue Lightning
Gates of Zendecon
Rygar (yeah I know, some people hate this version)
Shadow of the Beast
Toki
Zalor Mercenary

My favourites are California Games (BMX run is incredible), Klax (perfect conversion), Chip's Challenge, Paperboy, Toki, Lemmings, S.T.U.N. Runner and Awesome Golf

 

[taras]

This just hangs on the loading screen for me too, unfortunately... (and yes, I do have a lynxboot.img in the right folder, and have tried it upper- and lower-case.)

Ooops! I forgot about klax! I have the box sitting on top of my computer desk and didn't even think of it. It is very arcade perfect! Love it.

I am also experiencing this issue. I formatted my 512MB card and put just the Lynx emulator on it with images and the lynxboot.img. Still hangs. Using GMenu2X or the standard menu - still hangs. Not overclocking at all or playing with the RAM.
