Engine02 is a script-driven, multiplatform 2D game engine with builds for DOS, Windows, Linux, Intel/PPC MacOS, PSP, and Wii.

Changes:

* Added “Repository” support. Special files placed in the “repo” folder allow E02 to connect to other download resources. This makes possible the creation of public and private listings for third-party games, and private listings for local transfers between platforms (when already running an http server). This feature is not displayed when only the default repository file is found

-BugFixes-

* When a script line was followed by whitespace (space or tab), the whitespace would not be removed from the end of the loaded string. This would cause problems especially with filenames that were followed by comments, as the filename used would contain the space/tab characters and fail to load on some platforms. Trailing whitespace on strings is now ignored, eliminating this problem (comments can be used after strings, and the strings themselves will be terminated after the last non-whitespace character)

* Mode 5 for the Set_PaletteAlpha_Range Script Command attempted to set the global palette rather than the target palette, and when intentionally setting the Global Palette, the alpha was not properly applied. This Command should now function properly for mode 5, and for applying an alpha to the Global Palette colors

* The Dim_Palette_Range Script Command did not test for component value overflow when “Dimming” up, which caused them to “wrap around” and become the wrong colors. Using this Command to brighten the palette (a “Percentage” value greater than 128) should now work properly

* The “Installed Games” section of the menu would crash when no games were installed due to a test on an array entry for an array whose length matched the number of games (in this case, 0). The “Installed Games” menu will now display correctly under this condition, reporting no installed games and displaying only the option to return to the Main Menu

Another emulator port by Reesy, SMSPlus!

Release notes:

Hi,

Yes thats right its another SMSPLUS port…you can never have too many ports right 😉

I started this before Dingear was released, if I had known someone else was working on a port I would probably not have bothered but hey the work is done now so I may as well release it.

Just in case you have never heard of SMS Plus, it is a Sega Master and Sega Game Gear Emulator originally created by a bloke called Charles MacDonald ( http://cgfm2.emuviews.com/ ).

Downloads are below.

http://reesy.gp32x.de/smsplusv1.zip
http://reesy.gp32x.de/smsplusv1_src.zip

Installation instructions can be found in the readme.txt found in the zip file but basically just copy the contents of the smsplusv1.zip file to the Games directory on your Dingoo and then update your jukebox. You should then be able to launch SMS and GG roms via the Roms menu option on your Dingoo.

Press SELECT to enter the menu system where you can change various settings and save or load your games etc.

The emulator is based on the excellent Dingoo SDK created by Flatmush and Harteex and so should work on all Dingoo models.

Later
Reesy
