Spectrum Emulator


I use Rlyeh's fZX32 on my GP32, and he will port his f-emus to the GP2X as well. Someday :')
 
I think your best bet is the now mythical "fday". fday which is the brainchild of Rlyeh contains a whole set of emus (12 :blink: ) . A spectrum emu is included but there's no telling when fday will occur (so no use asking ;)).
 
What the hell OS/Shell is that on his desktop?

Where did that picture issue forth from?

How may I thank you for filling me with joy?

Considering he is a developer, no doubt its a flavour of Linux. I personally so much prefer the interface had with Linux - its truly customisable. The only proggy I know of which changes the shell of Windows XP is Windows blinds which consumes memory and sits on top of the basic shell anyway.

Not sure how he would get WinAmp running on Linux :p (well...) Not to mention that those tray icons are 100% Windows, and I've never seen a WM that quite resembled that.

Just because you're a developer doesn't mean you're forced to be on linux, though it does make it much nicer :)

I've seen many tray icons in Linux look very similar to windows icons. The use of "Grafik" sounds dutch, which suggests to me that its a european based operating system unless this has been customized.

I'm gonna put a bet down. I have a smelly cat with a diseased ass which I'm willing to bet.

You do realise that Windows is localised for most of the locations it's sold in, right?

Linux was developed in Europe, Windows was developed in America. Sorry didn't make that clear.

That's one of the reasons why I put "(well...)" in the part of my quote that you snipped out. I was just stating that it's not a very common practice.

My guess is that fDay happens with HH-Day :D I think (hope?) he will release his emus when HH mode gets released (as he is closely involved into that).

Just speculation though... :)
 
spectrum? Wait... that was the computer system with stunning 4 colors at once right? :D

I fear the GP2x can't handle so much raw power :(

It had 8 colours all of which can be displayed on the screen at the same time. However, only 2 colours can appear in any 8x8 square of the screen.

Actually in all fairness to the spectrum it had 16 colours, though admittedly the limitation mentioned still applied. I seem to recall that the Turtles game brought out the best graphics on the old spectrum... and even that wasn't too impressive (The Amiga was out by then!)

Technically the Speccy had 16, but I don't think that the 'Bright' colours were usable in normal circumstances.. Yes, the Spectrum had a 'Bright White' colour, and a 'Bright Black' colour too... ah, the good old days.

I really should start getting coding again, haven't done any real coding in years.. now, what to port.. LAME for the GP2X! ... err, no... I'll think of something :)
