I'm not made of money, I will get the Pandora but not this. I already have a GP2X to play GP2X games on and I doubt that many devs will choose the Wiz instead of the Pandora for their future projects.
Of course, that's obviousPickle said:Maybe you meant to say it only the fenix runtime needs to be recompilied?
Orkie even needed a little button tester to test the buttons.Orkie said:The Wiz already has a basic Fenix runtime, it took about half an hour to get running.
I've changed some things and added direct hardware controls (like on GP2X), but I still haven't got to show 8 bpp correctly... did you achieved that?Orkie said:The Wiz already has a basic Fenix runtime, it took about half an hour to get running.
Hmm, sounds like GPH really came out and talked to some in the community before releasing it. Or at least you Orkie know quite a bit than the rest of us.Orkie said:The Wiz already has a basic Fenix runtime, it took about half an hour to get running.
Nope, though apparently they have a fair idea of what the problem is already and are working on fixing it.Puck2099 said:I've changed some things and added direct hardware controls (like on GP2X), but I still haven't got to show 8 bpp correctly... did you achieved that?
I'm guessing that GPH doesn't really consider the Wiz a re-release of the GP2X, but a considerably more powerful platform. They probably would've had more trouble selling it if it looked the same as the F-200.SunSpire said:Why didn't they just upgrade the gp2x to have the wiz's specs and leave the design alone. An even smaller screen and double d-pad sounds terrible. And built-in battery? So next time when I travel abroad and take this thing with me, after 5 hours (if that's even true, it might only last that long in idle status) I'll be carrying a brick with me cos I can't replace the power source anywhere on-the-fly.
Because my F100 died after the stick completely broke off, and because I bought a F200 shortly after that .. I'll stay away from this one. The pandora seems much more appealing to me, if I am going to buy any future device at all.
I really really wish they had stuck with the original F200 design and improved upon it.

Wowowowowowow, I have just got it correctly :lol:Orkie said:Nope, though apparently they have a fair idea of what the problem is already and are working on fixing it.

I've found the problem, I'll write them a mail with the solution![]()
I'm quite happy because I've spent all the day finding the way to access 8 bpp mode (I'm implementing a low hardware access library like Ryleh's Minilib).
Not that 8bpp mode matters to me but I do need a fenix runtime for my game![]()
Dynamically linked, maybe (depends on app). Statically linked, No.Spadoof said:1) I think somebody already anserwed this but is this backwards compatable with the gp2x software?
