Hi all

I've added definable keys to PicoDrive, and also added a screen orientation function, so the Motorola users should be happy ;) . There aren't any changes to the emulator itself so no new games work.

You can download it from http://www.gamesforsmartphones.co.uk/picodrive.shtml ... don't forget to use the key settings app to set your keys before playing...

Feedback here as usual :D

Enjoy...

Updated again, now based around Dave's latest (0.016) source code.

Don't know what the changes are to the emulator,

wicked! :D I know this is gonna sound funny but this emulator is too fast!! or i've slowed down?! :wink: anyhow, the file selecting thing, is a bit buggy, wasnt before - so you know it could be something you've added/changed. On the whole - brilliant work !

:idea: Do you think it will be possible to make two player games using bluetooth? (play someone with a e200)

There'll be a new version in the next couple of days which fixes that and uses pretty much the full viewable area of the smartphone screen (in landscape modes).

Also there'll be a speed button, so you can run the emulator at 100%, 75% or 50% of correct speed. Partly to fix the games which are running too fast (European PAL cartridges, I think, running at 60Hz when they should run at 50Hz) and partly because I'm rubbish at Afterburner II and need a bit of assistance!

Wow, Phantasy Star looks great. Any chance of adding a "save" feature?

any news on the sound?

Hi guys

Sound won't happen until Dave builds it into the PocketPC version of PicoDrive, which I suspect won't be for a while. So you might have to wait for that one.

Dave *has* given me some pointers on how to put together a save/load feature but I'm not expecting it to be easy, I always found writing to files in C a real pain in the backside. But I'll have a look at it tonight and see if I can get anywhere.

As for the backlight, I never yet managed to write code to prevent the backlight switching off. I'll PM malloc to see if he can send me the same kepp-backlight-on code he's sending to the BetaPlayer guy...

Hi all,

First of all I want to say thnx to all the people who are creating this wonderful emulator..I don´t know anything about programming..but is there anything I can do to make this emulator even more better? Keep up the good work...I´ve found out that only european roms will work on this version...is there a way to remove to protection?

Guest retro

just rename them.

EG.

Sonic.smd to Sonic.bin.

Im also looking around the net for some more Emu's to convert, I think I have found a PC Engine source, but still looking in to it.

Retro.

Hi all...

Updated version now available at www.gamesforsmartphones.com - small change to the main engine from Dave and Smartphone stuff from me. Here's what's changed.

Enjoy...

Max

/

Changes:

New interim Pico update from Dave: enables "Megadrive Window Layer"

-

Now recognises .SMD and .BIN files

-

Slow-motion button - toggles between 100%, 75% and 50% game speed

-

Load and Save (one slot only - saves to "PicoSave.sav")

-

Landscape views no longer omits bottom few scanlines

Notes:

Load and Save doesn't work if:

i) you change to a different ROM (!);

ii) the Megadrive is in a different screen mode to the one you saved in

I've tried the following on my E200

All in all good job to the developers. I wish it was easier to remember what keys did what though - the options such as game speed and screen rotation would be better off on a menu like the file selector rather than having dedicated keys.

Nice one!
