Shortly after Test 1 here comes Test 2 of ZODTTD’s PSX4ALL/PSX4iPhone port for the GP2x.

Release notes:

Here is the direct download link to psx4gp2x v0.1.2 Test 2:
http://www.zodttd.com/psx4gp2x/psx4gp2x_0_1_2_t2.zip

It’s been a long time since a psx4gp2x version has been made, so the change list is very long.
I can tell you that the newly redesigned frameskip has been helping things a lot. Also the dynarec has been remade. Performance has increased quite a lot.

I just got done playing a game on my GP2X @ 266MHz. Buster Bros Collection, with sound on and interlace off, ran at 60FPS steady in-game, and the menus went way too fast, sometimes 120FPS. Frameskip works well on it’s various settings and due to the way it must be designed, it doesnt skip certain frames, so things are kept smooth even on really high frameskips. Wipeout XL is amazing to see! 🙂

While there is still more to be desired, this is pretty exciting news. So my todo list contains:
– Further improve the dynarec.
– Tweak some default settings so compatibility is higher while maintaining performance. Thing includes the psx cycle setting.
– Enable BIOS emulation option in the menu.
– Enable the use of external menu systems. 🙂
– Check if save states are working. Both save states and memory card saves are implemented.

POWDER is a roguelike game, which is not a port of an existing roguelike. It is built around replayability and long term ergonomics, not short term learning.

Changes:

Dequipping a non-equipped item no longer dequips the corresponding equipped itemslot.
Option menu has an option to disable the Action Bar to placate the churlish users out there.
If a creature misses themselves, it is no longer “Herself misses Wazerli the imp.” (Clare Boothby)
A massive refactoring of the message system has occured. In particular, I have abolished all of my stack buffers and the rotating ring of dynamic buffers in favour of dynamic memory allocation. This means I don’t have to worry about buffer overruns any more, and hopefully likewise won’t have stack overruns on the GBA anymore. No doubt in this process I’ve created more typos, however. Please report any weird text swiftly.
If you change dungeon levels while possessing a creature (like a Wizard’s Eye) and release control on the other dungeon level, you will now properly return to your previous dungeon level. (Mark Ehlke)
To aggressive refactoring made swords and clubs burn up in fire rather than just state-change. (Richard Quirk)
One new room type.

WARNING: In this release, scrolls of enchant weapon and remove curse will crash the game. So will random uncursing from gods. You are discouraged from playing this version.

Move the blocks left or right, and form groups of 2 or more to have them disappear…
