Miscellaneous News
eSwan has been updated. It emulates Bandai’s Wonderswan/Color. New is the sound emulation! Thanks to PSP-Wiki for the news.
Release notes:
This is a little program that I originally wrote to test out some of the SDL functions and extra Libraries such as SDL_TTF, SDL_Image, SDL_Mixer to see if they are working correctly with my dev setup.No idea if it will be of any use to people but it makes a nice little first program to compile and test your dev setup and also to maybe learn how to setup a program to run on the GP2X and PC. I will add this to my GP2X User Guide on the next update.
