Font and Sprite Library (15-01-2006) (NDS misc)
Changes:- 1/15/2006 A few new things in this update. First, I consolidated a few functions that did not need to have duplicates, such as character width, height, etc... Also, I added functions that allow you to supply a raw buffer and use the sprite and wrapped text functions on your own 15bit color backgrounds. I have also added the ability to draw text or sprites inverted.http://www.youngmx.com/?loc=ndsdev/NDSDEV Read more about Font and Sprite Library (15-01-2006) (NDS misc)
OldPlay v0.8 (GP2x Application)
Image provided by: GP32SpainSasq released the music player OldPlay for the GP2x. It plays classic music formats like MOD and SID. Thanks to GP32Spain for the news.OldPlay is a music player that uses libsidplay1, modplug and UADE to play a multitude of classic music formats.Sids are played using libsidplay1 (resid wouldnt work on gp2x) and so filter emulation is far from perfect.Amiga formats uses UADE, which is based on UAE (The Amiga Emulator) and Eagleplayer. It takes quite a lot of CPU so the equalizer is automatically turned off when playing amiga formats. However, if you want to avoid stuttering on TFMX and other songs that require a bit more CPU, you can try overclocking (~250 should do it).Oldplay also uses libzip to look inside zipfiles (which is almost a requirement when playing from HVSC).http://archive.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,6,1154 Read more about OldPlay v0.8 (GP2x Application)

ScummVM GP2x (Alpha 6) (GP2x misc)
ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the game, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed! ScummVM lets you run these adventures: Adventure Soft's Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2; Revolution's Beneath A Steel Sky, Broken Sword 1 and Broken Sword 2; Flight of the Amazon Queen; Wyrmkeep's Inherit the Earth; Coktel Vision's Gobliiins and games based on LucasArts' SCUMM (Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion) system. SCUMM is used for many games, including Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Sam and Max and more. This is a test release of ScummVM for the GP2X, it would be appreciated if this alpha test distribution was not mirrored and that people be directed to http://www.distant-earth.com/scummvm instead, until the port is a little more mature, to ensure people download the most recent builds.This build is still in a very heavy state of development and as such no ?expected? behaviour can be guaranteed.http://www.distant-earth.com/scummvm/ Read more about ScummVM GP2x (Alpha 6) (GP2x misc)
