GP2X-Colem v1.1.0 (Coleco Vision emu for GP2x)

GP2X-Colem is a port to GP2X of Colem Unix version 1.0.

Changes:

– A thumbnail image is now displayed in the file requester while selecting any file with the same name of a previously saved game (roms, keyboard, settings). It might be very helpful to recognize that game later if you have thousand different games in your rom folder !
– Save state dates are displayed in the emulator window
– Save state files are now saved using gzip compression (with STZ as file extention). It’s much faster to save or load states now. You can use gzip or 7-zip to convert old STA to STZ.
STA file format is still supported for loading, so you convert your previous saved files inside the emulator. (it’s now easier to identify and to load the right save state slot)
– Cheat support !
– Memory monitoring engine to find your own cheat code !
– Text editor to modify the global cheat.txt file
– Text editor to write your own comments on games
– Display first comment line while browsing game files
– Auto fire support for second joystick
– Zip rom files are decompressed in memory (much faster !)
– Improve file requester with virtual keyboard to choose sequentially rom files beginning with a given letter
– Add documentation for settings in help menu
– Auto-fire mode, press RTrigger+X to switch it on/off
– Add several new hotkeys :
. settings such as fps, render mode, auto fire speed can now be directly modified inside the emulator (no need to enter in the settings menu)
. quick save / quick load current state
(no need to enter in the main menu)
– Add ntsc/pal option and fix issue with default speed (emulator was too slow in ntsc mode)

Monster 2 v1.0 (Wiz Game)

nooskewl ported his role-playing game “Monster 2” to the Wiz.

Quote:

Monster 2 1.0 is now officially available for the GP2X Wiz handheld console. Visit the Monster 2 page for download links. If you already have the beta that was available from my blog, there’s not much point in upgrading. It’s basically the same thing just repackaged to make it easier to install, including an icon and .ini file.
