BitBank: I think you should go the way of other emulator writers (trying my best to not mention any other emulators) such as Nocash, who does impose time limits on his emulators, but doesn't ask for real payments to unlock them-- he asks for donations. Also, people who dont have credit cards or PayPal won't be able to enjoy this...

here you go

Sounds good with a new nes emulator if it runs as perfect as smargear. As I said earlier I would pay for the software if it is very good and I think smartgear is.

[agent.m]

a master system emulator would be cool as well.Posted from my SmartPhone!

[bitbank]

agent.m,
The code in SmartGear already emulates the MasterSystem perfectly.  The problem is the screen size.  Shrinking the MS games to be viewable on the phone will make them look kind of crappy.  Mostly the same titles are available for GG and MS, so I figured there is no need to do MS and have to shrink the image.  Opinions? Are there unique MS games that make it worth seeing a shrunken image?

High thnx for this new effort to emulate a console. This is the first time sound work great on a decent speed. Only problem I got is that the gameboy color game are not working. It only shows a black screen. Can u tell me what I do wrong?

yeah! Ill let you know in through the proper channels. But I bet most people can guess  :wink:

You'll have to excuse me for a couple of days (traveling tomorrow).  I will add screen shrink for the MasterSystem code and try to toss the NES in there as well.  Check back on Monday.

eep, sorry for the small text last time-- just messing around with the switches. But seriously, BitBank made a heck of an effort with this one; even adding NES support. I wonder if he could just toss in a Spectrum/a2600 emu so we won't be needing any more clutter programs-- an all in one package! Oh, yeah-- where do we report bugs? I noticed that the keypad sound turns back to "Tone" (I had it on silent) when I run the Emu...

[xAix]

And another question--- what iNES mappers will your NES emulator support? Will it be based on any emu engines (i.e. loopy's)?

[gravity]

If I were you I wouldn't include any gameboy emulator in that package.  Nintendo have been known to crack down on commercial gameboy emulators thanks to their recent patent.  They obviously won't win in court, but they will drag out the legal battle until you're bankrupt.  GG/MS emulators sound great though.

mr siu99spj thanks very very well .

[bitbank]

I've done some work on GameBoy performance and placed the new code in the same spot:

http://www.bitbankso...s/smartgear.zip

The new code should run everything at full speed on a 132Mhz ARM.  Please let me know of any games which do not work properly or run too slowly (clicking noise).

The MasterGear and NES shrunken mode are coming next...

Wow! I can run gameboy color game on full speed (mpx200). Faster than gnuboy. And when you sell ? and how much ?

[bitbank]

Thenet,
If all goes well, hopefully I can begin selling this product by the end of the month.  The reason for the name "SmartGear" is because I am working on a partnership with MorphGear.  We are planning on redoing many of his emulators and dramatically lowering the prices.  The goal is to have a SmartPhone, Pocket PC and Desktop PC version of everything available.  Not sure if we are going to sell all the platforms together or separately, but certainly the price will be significantly reduced.  It will take lots of time to integrate everything, but the SmartGear product should be the first to be ready.

[agent.m]

morphgear was an emu i was talking about a few months ago. it would be cool :wink:

[Coolbox]

would it be possible to buy af version now with no time limit with the rights to download the final version when you release it?
Please
I cant play the games with the other emulators so I cant wait to use smartgear....

[RAVENMAD]

I'd like to buy a copy of it now as well best emulator if seen...
