The port of Caprice (CPC emulator) for the GP2x has been updated. As the release thread holds the changelog in spanish, here is a plain bablefish translation:

Eliminated scr_width, scr_heigh, scr_window and scr_style of the CAP32.cfg (so that? 320×200 full screen and goes that it shoots… no? )

Eliminated of I cosay to 32 source all”drivers”of 24 and bpp

Added parametro — nosound to deshabilitar audio (Priority on parametro of the CFG) Asi we can have the audio one qualified, but deshabilitar when we want from scrip or the selector of Kounch, without reediting the CFG – DIRTY TRICK to raise framerate… I have obtained with frameskip zero that emu shows the same rate of imagenes that without the sound before. 200Mhz we can play 84% of the speed of the originalCPC, and 250-266 mhz the 100% in mayoria of the cases. It depends on the intensive use that matches of the AY (audio chip of the CPC) the AY makes us lose a 12% of the speed… Not to use frameskip greater of 2, because this DIRTY TRICK fight a little with I cosay of frame skip…

Eliminated button START for reset of the CPC (So that? mola to see those yellow letters in blue bottom and despues you not key in anything) and used now to mostrar/quitar info of emu. SELECT continues being worth to leave emu.

Volume + and -, they serve now to fit the volume 8)

Image provided by: UnknownWumpus is a remake of an old computer/calculator game called”Hunt the Wumpus”. It was available for the calculator TI99/4A and many other systems.Description of”Hunt the Wumpus”from wikipedia.org:Hunt the Wumpus was an important early computer game. It was based on a simple hide-and-seek format, featuring a mysterious monster (the Wumpus) that lurked deep inside a network of rooms. Using a command line text interface, the player would enter commands to move through the rooms, or shoot arrows along crooked paths through several adjoining rooms. There were twenty rooms, each connecting to three others, arranged like the vertices of a dodecahedron (or the faces of an icosahedron). Hazards included bottomless pits, super bats (which would drop the player in a random location) and the Wumpus itself. When the player had deduced from hints which chamber the Wumpus was in without entering it, he would fire an arrow into the Wumpus’ chamber to slay it. However, firing the arrow into the wrong chamber would startle the Wumpus, which might then devour the player.Originally written by Gregory Yob in BASIC while attending the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, and noticed on mainframes at least by 1972, Hunt the Wumpus was first published in the”Peoples Computer Company”1 journal in 1973, again in 1975 in”Creative Computing”, and finally in 1979 in the book MORE BASIC Computer Games. Building on several grid-based games of the”Battleship”variety, Yob injected adversarial humor into the computer’s hints, prefiguring the”voice”of the Infocom narrator. 1 Later versions of the game offered more hazards and other cave layouts. An implementation of Hunt the Wumpus was typically included with MBASIC, Microsoft’s BASIC interpreter for CP/M and one of the company’s first products.http://forum.gp2x.de/viewtopic.php?t=943

This is an attempt to create a native NDS homebrew firmware which is VERY minimalistic, don’t expect anything exciting. If you just want to see what it looks like without changing your firmware, run firmware.ndshttp://www.cs.utah.edu/~tew/hbfirmware/

Author release notes:

I got tired of the same old Lowser interface, so I decided to make a file browser. It has the basics right now, neat interface, file browsing, execution of Lua scripts, and an image viewer. You may change some settings in the index.lua to suit your needs. Suggestions and comments are welcome.

This is a patch for the GP2x which redirects the serial output to the USB cable. Together with the included WinXP driver, you can now use your USB cable as serial cable and read out the GP2x shell.http://www.gp2x.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,8,1191
