Save configs - woohoo!

 

[jbrodack]

great work on the emulator. one question though, is there any volume control implemented and if not is there going to be?

​

There has been a volume control from the first versions.

If you are playing in vertical mode flip the screen 90 degrees to horizontal, adjust volume and then flip back. This is so that you can use volume controls for fire in stuff like galaga, etc.

Yes, I _am_ a wanker

/me goes to fire it up

volume control didnt seem to work earlier but anyway i tried it now and it worked. sound emulation needs some work but the same can be said for most emus on the gp2x and even on other platforms. still graphically everything is good and the scaling seems to work better sometimes it used to give me messed up graphics across the bottom of the screen but now games like rampage play fine. good work.

ohhh I was waiting for super sprint, awesome!!!!

 

[naples39]

Save game configurations and hardware scaling for large res games---now there are two options I've been waiting for!!! Can't wait to get some Super Sprint, Paperboy, and Rampage going. Looks like it's about donation time....

 

[heisty]

Yeah volume is weird sometimes. It plays at full volume and if I adjust the volume it switches speakers so that it only comes out of one side but LOUD. Then I exit MAME and come back in and it is fine, weird.

Thanks Franxis! Any improvements on TV-Out Support?

 

[Franxis]

Thank you people!. Still no TV-Out support because i have not tried the TV-Out myself.

Somebody tested the scaled mode in TV-Out? Maybe it could run ok... Press L+R a couple of times to activate scaled video mode, and please tell me if it runs ok or not with TV-Out...

 

[Shane R. Monroe]

I can try that later today if someone else doesn't do it first.

Nice work, as always. I'll play MAME a lot more now that I don't have to reconfigure every game I play

Thanks Franxis!

 

[sbock]

Well done !

Rampage now works flawlessly.

Good work, Franxis!
