Gp2xpectrum

[camokid]

Hi

Anyone tried gp2xpectrum out yet? How does it compare to fuse?

 

[quietbloke]

I gave it a quick go last night. I only gave it a go with a couple of games but from what Ive seen its very nice. Manic miner works great !.
Its a lot easier to use. You get a nice front menu / a file selector to pick your game. You get the option to play original size or fullscreen and volume control
Just tried chuckie egg. I still need to play around a bit. I cant seem to redefine the keys to use the joystick to control the player. Probably just me being dense.
All in all... It seems like we have another great emulator

I was playing Manic Miner for ages last night - ace.

It is partly based on FUSE cos Philip Kendal is mentioned in the credits.

I have to agree about the key redifinition probs, but all in all very good.

Elite runs at a good rate n'all

it's a very nice emulator, I played dr destructo and zub fine.

it has nice features like on screen battery and screen scalling... only thing that's missing is control bias like the Atari-ST emu. The onscreen keyboard works well and is easy to use too.

I think its absolutly Fab!!! was playing Treasure Island last night for ages, haven't played that since i was 13!!!!!! bliss

:lol:

This seems a lot better than fuse I could never get fuse to work. I've tried hunchback, hypersports, renegade, and robocop all seem to work 100% with no problems. The only tiny problem I've found is the sound isn't 100% on the 128k games but thats no biggy. One of the best spectrum emulators I've used.

can this version play zipped roms?

can this version play zipped roms?

​

[scoobyjay]

manic miner is playing way too fast. is there anyway of slowing the emulator down.

cheers

Underclock.

So far looks pretty cool!

Hey Hey 16K! http://www2.b3ta.com/heyhey16k/hey5.swf


:lol:

 

[nickspoon]

Hey, hey, 16K! What does that get you today? You need more than that for a letter, old school rampaks are much better...

Sorry, what were we talking about?

 

[remowilliams]

Can't get that song out of my head! :lol:

I would also like to give praise for GP2xpectrum, fantastic, fully featured emulator!

Played my fave Speccy game on it last night, Rex, it sounds pretty good too for a speccy emulator!

 

[tobytyke]

Has anybody tried to play Alien8, I get to selection screen and what ever I select it reboot the speccy. Is this because of my rom or has anybody else seem this problem. I've tried other Ultimate games (Knightlore) and it works ok, Just a little to fast.

 

[WhizzBang]

The graphics in Commando smear all over the screen as it scrolls.

I found compatability was not so great, but my games are all zipped tzx files so I shall try again with Z80 images. The emulation is a little fast and I find the interface a bit awkward. I would love to see a Spectrum emu on the GP2x that was as user friendly as GBAdvance on the GBA.

Still, this is a very welcome addition to the GP2x and I look forward to future releases.

I have sound problems on 128k games and +3 disk images, I cant redefine the keys either, left/right work fine but not up/down. also I couldnt get the joystick to work as a Kempston either.

 

[Trashman]

Well its a fantastic improvement over Fuse and now the update has fixed the vol. up and down im happy as a pig in shit! :lol:

 

[camokid]

is there a way to define keys to buttons? Only i'd like to define my 'up' in some games to a button instead of a joystick direction to solve the diagonal jumping issue

 

[lubidog]

It can't find my roms. And how can I have a folder called roms in the root directory and have my roms DrMD folder in there as well?

Reallly wanna play my old speccy games, so any help much appreciated...
