Aliens vs. Predator is a science fiction first-person shooter computer game developed by Rebellion and published by Fox Interactive.

Like the 1994 Alien vs Predator game for the Atari Jaguar, Aliens versus Predator offers three separate campaigns, each playable as a separate species: Alien, Predator, or human Colonial Marine. Each player character has different objectives, abilities, and weapons. The single-player campaign presents the player with a conventional series of levels to progress through that are designed around the abilities of each character.

In order to play this game, data is required from an Aliens vs Predator installation, at present only Aliens vs Predator Gold edition is confirmed to work. In order to play you must:

1. Get data (AVP Gold works) from a previously installed version of game
2. Make all files and folders lower case
3. Copy data into pandoraappdatacom.pawprintgames.avp
4. Launch game

ArcEm is a portable open-source emulator for the Acorn Archimedes. It’s capable of running multiple operating systems including RISC OS and ARM Linux. Ported to Pandora by Sam Watkins.

Changes:

1.5.1.4, some minor fixes: – starts fullscreen, can still alt-tab out of it. I stole (and fixed) code from an unmerged NET_WM_FULLSCREEN patch to SDL 1.2! – starts with mouse tracked, can still switch using Pandora ‘select/ctrl’ button – press Pandora logo button to quit

BeebEm by Mike Wyatt is a BBC Micro and Master 128 emulator and enables you to run BBC Micro software. BeebEm was first developed for UNIX systems in 1994 by Dave Gilbert and was then ported to other systems.

BeebEm for Pandora ported by Sam Watkins.

Additional information:

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
