Just gave it a whirl - couldn't get it to work - black screen hung on boot up.

Aye, black screen for me also, has any one noticed crackling in the sound on the new version of frodo?

Yeah I noticed the crackle, and most of my T64 files don't work anymore, as well as the snapshots disappearing between sessions, but we are promised an update on Friday so hopefully that will fix everything.

I've spent a long time trying to get this great game going and have all but failed, so I thought I may as well attempt prodding the creator to see what he says. You may (or may not) be interested in what I sent to smash@smash-designs.de:

Congrats on Turrican 3, it's truly a awesome piece of work. I have been trying to get it to work on my gp32 portable unit (http://www.gbax.com/gp32review.html) so I can get the time to play it but have had some problems.

The emulator is a port of Frodo (http://dexy.mine.nu/gp32/frodo/) and is renowned to have trouble with games that use some kind of fast loader, and often when there is a choice to enable/disable the fastloader , disabling often works.

I have been trying desperately trying all kinds of methods to get the game across including attempting to dump a savestate using an action replay cartridge, but this just crashes every time I try, possibly due to the complex routines you have used in the game.

Any help with this would be really appreciated, I wondered if it would be easy to implement a choice to disable the fastloader? Anyway, once again, congratulations on making many Turrican fans (such as myself) extremely happy
