YAY, now if only anybody knew how to set it up.....

 

[Pekele]

download the package here :

http://unplugandplay.free.fr/minigp32-2.zip

installation is the same as the old package.
create a new directory :
c:\minigp32

and extract the package in it.

add to your autoexec.bat or you variable environement ( XP, W2k ) the path :
c:\minigp32\bin

that's all !

have fun !

Well, I'm currently using CHNs patched DKA, does anyone know how to just upgrade the compiler from 3.0.2 in that, to the 3.2.2 included in this release, without getting errors such as:

Any help much appreciated...

P.S. Ignore the fact it's complaining about libc at the moment, I realise I am meant to replace it all, I was just experimenting, when I replaced it all, it still complained about the same errors on libs like libmodplay.a

3.2.2's ARM output is looking a good bit better then earlier versions.

I really must get around to building a 3.3 version or playing with the 3.4 CVS.

Pekele, many thanks.
