This build contains a quick fix for Doom’s garbled graphics. As I suspected, MIPS32 R2 instructions are to blame. I disabled some of them (and will need to revalidate them before enabling them again later). The performance will be up to 4% less in any release from now on until the MIPS32 R2 instructions are validated, which will be unnoticeable in all games except Mario Golf and Tennis.

In this release, there is also a small change to the progress bar. The text is now inside the bar, and the background is TRS-80 blue.

The last commit that went into this build is commit fbc3d1a: “OpenDingux: Quick fix to disable most MIPS32 R2 instructions in the stub, but allow the SYNCI instruction.”.

Sometimes developers disappear, sometimes they re-appear. Happened with Tony Young who showed up on the NESdev.com web board during 17th October 2013 and released Mouser 2, a heavily reworked version of Mouser. It’s time to guide your mouse and catch some cheese! Right?

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:

* In synch with the git repo

PicoDrive is a Megadrive / Genesis / Sega CD / Mega CD / 32X / SMS emulator.

Release notes by notaz:

This should run on GP2X/Wiz/Caanoo, but I’ve only tested this on GP2X and Caanoo. The main change is that SegaCD compatibility issues should be resolved now. 32X compatibility has been improved too, but it’ll be too slow on GPH consoles. I don’t know if/when I can optimize 32X, although it should be possible to improve it still.

From what I see there is not much action on these boards any more, I guess everyone moved on to one of the gazillion Android devices that are available these days.. If anyone still uses this on their GPH consoles (especially on good old GP2X), it would be nice if you posted here so that I know if it’s worth building future PD releases for GPH consoles or not.
