DrSMS v1.03 (Master System emulator for GBA)

New day… new version :o) But read more:

I’ve got DrSMS to work with pogoshell, I just need to write an exit function to return back to pogoshell. I’ve re-written the character data routine so a few more games work, I’ve also put in some code to check for 200 Byte SMS rom headers ( I had completely forgotten about these ) so a few more games should run. I have also made a change to the background scrolling routines, Because DrSMS is never going to run fast enough to get rasta effects working right I have stopped the emulator changing the xscroll value of the backgrounds before the SMS Vsync. This will allow you to play a load more games without them flickering. I will continue to work on a Vsync option that you can switch on and off, but with the Vsync option”ON”the speed of the emulator will drop drastically. Anyway after I have written my EXIT function I will release another version.

GBA3DS v0.9 (GBA demo)

Text taken from Torlus’ page. Thanks to Torlus himself for the news:

The aim of this project is to provide a set of functions for writing 3d games. By 3d i mean”true”3d (not raycasting as used in some FPS). The main features of this engine are : – Polygon-based (triangles) rendering. – Affine Texture-mapping. – Backface culling and Z-buffer sorting. – Skeletal animation support. – Import tools for Half-Life SMD file format (vertices and animation frames) which means that you can use well-known tools for 3d modelling, such as MilkShape 3D (http://www.swissquake.ch/chumbalum-soft/), 3DS Max (http://www.discreet.com/) with Valve plugin, etc. – Uses GBA graphic mode 3 (240x160x15bpp). – Makefiles for both Linux and Windows.

Torlus will add an online demo with help of the BoycottAdvance java-applet very soon. Binary and source are allready avaliable.http://heliscar.com/greg/

GPRoar Alpha 2 (Dragon 32/64 emulator for GP32)

Ciaran Anscomb released the second alpha version of his Dragon 32/64 emulator for the GP32. The changes:

GP32 version now features a virtual keyboard and is slightly faster than the last release. Note: You *do* need to find a Dragon ROM and edit it so it’s just the ROM and no leading bytes. See the README for details. Next release should have a file requester in so you can select from multiple ‘tapes’.

OGG Vorbis Player Alpha 2 (GP32 application)

Text taken from GP32emu:

Hey everyone, we just received news about an Ogg Vorbis player for GP32! For those of you who do not know Ogg Vorbis, it’s an audio codec, like mp3, but open source. Also, Ogg files are twice as small as their mp3 equivalent !This program uses ‘Tremor’ of ‘Xiph.org Foundation’ to decode the ogg vorbis codec. It runs at 66 MHz.Supported sampling rates : 11025kHz, 22050kHz, 44100kHzThis is just an alpha version, you can only run 2 files at the moment :”a.ogg and b.ogg”in gpmm . The output seems fine, from what i’ve tested 🙂

Text taken from GP32emu:

Tom Forsyth updated his his GP32 port of Doom. Its been over a year since the last release and he has now released the source code in the hopes that someone will continue with the project. Changes in version 0.3 are: -Save/load do now work I believe.-First attempt at a sound libarary, but it doesn’t work and locks the machine. The FXE for version 0.3 hasnt been updated but I will look into compiling the new source code and release a FXE if all goes well. In the meantime head over to the homepage here for more information and the sourcecode downloads.
