I know i keep going on about this but recently there have been a few people interested in this and maybe 1 or 2 capable of moving this on to another level.

Done some research and found that quite a few emulators on the N900 are ported from GP2x / GP2x wiz versions.

DrNokSnes v1.3.4 was ported from the GP2x version by Javier S. Pedro (javispedro)

PicoDrive v1.32-1 was ported from the GP2x version by Javier Campo (javicq)

CPCm v1.20-1 was ported from the GP2x version by Javier Campo (javicq)

UAE4All Maemo Edition v1rc2-14 was ported from the GP2x version by Tomasz Sterna (smoku)

cps2emu 0.6-r1 was ported from the GP2x version started by kkito and continued by Marcus Fazzi (anunakin)

There are a few others but this should be enough and maybe give some of you a few names to contact if help is needed.

[REQUEST]

As a main project or side project can someone be willing to try and port this version of mame4all from the GP2x wiz version. It would be great if it could run along side the current version of mame instead of replacing it due to it having a compatible romlist not as up to date as the current version but should offer better performance with older roms which struggle on the current version.

Most of those emulators above have a nice gui this is not necessary in the early stages of porting unless testing proves to be worth it.

I may be wrong but i think it could be worth the trouble to port this so we can have a version of mame which runs most if not all of its romlist at more than playable speeds although they would be from an older list compared to the current mainstream versions.

Another link to some source files if it helps.

Thanks in advance.
