BBC Micro Emulator

– GP2X BeebEm, with minor changes
– built with gcc, optimized for OMAP3
– with Notaz SDL, for hardware scaling
– a few free disk images are included with the emulator
– button mapping and save states are working now
– remembers path to your disc images

This port is a work in progress, not perfect yet:

– the GP2X BeebEm uses 320×240, some scan lines are lost.
– the sound is a bit choppy sometimes
– virtual keyboard don’t work, not much needed on Pandora
– hard to type some keys in Basic, need a Basic key map / option?

Changes:

0.1.2.6, fixed to import old appdata, creates backup files like OddJob.uef~ if need be

ptitSeb ported PPSSPP to the OpenPandora handheld. PPSSPP is an open source project, licensed under the GPL 2.0 (or later).

PPSSPP is a PSP emulator written in C++, and translates PSP CPU instructions directly into optimized x86, x64 and (soon) ARM machine code, using an efficient JIT compiler.

PPSSPP can thus run on quite low-spec hardware, including stronger Android phones and tablets, as long as there’s support for OpenGL ES 2.0.

Changes:

* A bit faster (again, but still not enough)
* A frameskip option (ingame menu). Doesn’t look compatible with “hardware transform”
