Lazy Reader is a new program by Woogal (author of Bob The Amazing Lemon) which allows you to read text files on the GP32. It’s called Lazy Reader because the author is lazy to press a button each time to display the next page so this program has a variable scrolling speed which automatically scrolls down the text file at your convienience 😉 Visit the homepage athttp://gp32.sector808.org/for more information and the downloads.

That’s right, Rlyeh has actually released fSMS 😀 with tons of features, namely optimisations over the old private betas, and:

– PNG grabbing support – Scaling modes 1:1 and 1.25:1.25 for SMS / 1:1, 1.5:1.5, 2:1, 2:1.5 and 2:1666 for GG – Added lot of options: autofire, double buffering, vsync, frameskip, gamma correction, etc… – Untested multiplayer support (RF) – Fixed bugs everywhere as usual…

There’s still no PCM sound, but FM is clear overall, thanks to CHN’s sound lib. Rlyeh is now on holidays so this is the last release for a bit :)In addition to all this we have a fast filesystem manager (able to scan 1300 zips per minute), CRC32 ROM naming detection using GoodSMS and GoodGG by Cowering, plus other additions covered in the readme. Grab the file atGP32Emu!
