Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

nice!
how about some sort or virtual keyboard option? there are a couple of roms i cant start as i cant seem to find the correct key (if i can even get it on the HW keyboard)

also when i first start the emu i get the older screen appear for a second or two before it reverts to the new gui.

Thanks javicq

AUTO LAUNCH :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Thanks a lot! I've been waiting for this!

I've found a few issues related to keyboard mapping with my spanish N900. I have also noticed that joystick events mapped to keys actually produce the joystick event and the key pressed, which can be a problem if your mapped joystick uses a key from the loaded game.

The only feature I miss is support for CPC Plus.

Thanks again.

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

One more issue, I've found that Auto Launch doesn't work with CPM games, I was unable to find a way to type the | key needed for command |cpm.

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Thank you very much, the update is amazing! OMG, I looooove green scale!

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Shift + blue arrow + space

This is maemo caching an application screenshot for window opening/closing eye candy.
If that bothers you, just open a terminal and execute:

rm /home/user/.cache/launch/com.jcq.cpcm.startup.pvr

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

¡Gracias chavalote!

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Another useful feature would be support for zipped disks.

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

I was testing Tornado Low Level... "ooooh, scroll is crappy, the old CPC did it so much better". Then I remembered that TLL's "smooth" scrolling only goes on when fliying at high altitude!
And yes! The emulator does it very well (with standard 50fps vs 60fps issue).

BUT: Antiriad plays well, the on-screen-change from mode0 to mode1 panel works, but the panel don't show score-energy-lives info!

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Are you thinking about adding support for CPC with spanish keyboard or the 472 models?

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Let me check that, but I think it's just a matter of finding the right firmware...

It won't until you get the armor...

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

And what about CPC Plus? Do you have any plans about it?

Thanks and keep rocking!

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

No plans yet, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort due to their low popularity and the small amount of software specific for them.
We'll see...

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Thanks for your work, it is greatly appreciated :)

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

I know what you mean......BUT it would be worth it just for one game....

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Bug tracker for CPCm:

https://bugs.maemo.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=cpcm

You can file bugs there from now on.

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Has anyone else seen the emulator spontaneously stop and return to the main CPCm menu after a few minutes of play?

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Off topic

Is that a new Avatar javicq?? :eek:

Very retro. :cool:

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Please, READ the CPC settings screen.

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Err, what? Are you talking about the power saving feature in the settings menu?

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Sorry skalogre, I don't read your last post... yes, that's, only uncheck it.
(after two days I think this answer don't help so much)

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

New update released.

Keybard layout revamped, hopefully much more intuitive now. Better support for international keyboards.

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Testing now!!

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

I ported a CPC emulator, did you expect otherwise? :D

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

CPCm is now in extras-testing.

Please vote here so it can make it to extras:

http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...l/cpcm/1.20-1/

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Not really. :rolleyes:

Edit

I will vote when i get home, i forgot my password.:(

Great job on this port though ;)

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Come on guys, CPCm needs your votes.

Don't let this baby gather dust in extras-testing ;)

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Build it for diablo target too and you'll have a few votes more ;)

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

Done. ;)

Any other projects on the horizon? (apart from your 3D engine)

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

As I said in the Pico Drive thread, I don't have any legacy maemo device to test in. Best I could offer is a command line only version for Diablo (incompatible UI libs).

None yet. If I have time I might look into porting another emulator. Not sure which one yet. Probably one that doesn't involve porting Direct3D code to OpenGL. It's giving me headache :D

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

That would be enough for me :)

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

As a future project what do you think of this?

Also discussed over at this thread.

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

What about a good and fast CPS2/NegoGeo emulator like Final Burn with proper GUI and keymapping for special moves? :D

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

CPS2EMU is in the need of Hildon frontend.
I even started working on this, but moved to UAE since and it is still waiting for...

It's already ported and works great (I've been playing AD&D: TOD and SOM with great pleasure), but it's hard to use from shell by non-linux folks.

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

AD&D games are some of my favourites too :D.

¡Anímate Javi!

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

I have just voted for it, I hope it helps.

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

You can play Eye of the Beholder in DOSBOX :)
But seriously, I will consider it when I'm back into business...

Sure it helped. :)
Now we just need 2 more votes to go...

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

I have just posted about it on Twitter, hopefully you will get your 2 votes :)

Re: Amstrad CPC emulator for Maemo
 

It's just missing one vote now, I'll keep bombarding Twitter and Identi.ca tomorrow if I can :)
