  lxdream v0.9.1 "Turtle" Released posted by brakken
07-02-2009
 

The lxdream Team have released a new version of their Sega Dreamcast emulator for both OSX and Debian based Linux distributions.

Quote:
As promised, the 0.9.1 release is now out. It is somewhat faster than 0.9, the core is around 30-40% faster, and MMU performance is nearly an order of magnitude better, but rendering performance is still holding things back overall. There’s also (finally) preliminary VMU support for anyone who cares about that - you can attach them in the controller settings panel. As always, it’s available from the download page, release notes are here. And to make things even easier for Debian users, there’s now an apt repository available - just add the following lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list:
and do apt-get update, apt-get install lxdream.
Next version we’ll try and attack the rendering performance problem…
  • Lots of core performance improvements, especially in the MMU
  • VMU support (memory card only)
  • GDB remote debugging support
  • Quick-save states
  • LIRC driver
  • Now uses the ~/.lxdream directory (by default) to store runtime data
  • Audio + input drivers are now built as plugins

  JPCSP 0.2 - revision 1083 Released posted by brakken
07-02-2009
 



The JPCSP Team behind the name of the same emulator for the PC has released a new version. The JPCSP emulator emulates the Sony PSP portable video gaming console using the JAVA programming language and can run a handful of games - mostly 2D puzzle and a few RPG.

What's New?

- Added basic GE capture support, tested on cube sample. Until we record persistent GE state (texture on/off, etc) for best results replay captures in the same game it was recorded in.
- Fixed a refresh bug. Open menu trick should no longer be needed (click on File menu, it overlaps the display area and forces it to redraw, sometimes making something appear).
- fixed wait umd stat.

  PSP Custom Firmware 5.50 GEN-B Released posted by brakken
07-02-2009
 

The PSPGEN Team have released a new version of their Custom Firmware for the Sony PSP. Using this custom firmware you can get the most of of your PSP like playing backups, launching homebrew and having access to the Playstation Store.

What you need:
  • A PSP-1000 or PSP-2000 v1 or v2 already running Custom Firmware 5.50 GEN-A. DO NOT attempt to install this on a PSP-3000 or any PSP with a TA-088v3 motherboard.
5.50 GEN-B [translated] changes:
  • Bug fix: the VSH menu can now be disabled
  • Pressing Select can start the recovery, bring up the VSH recovery menu, or do nothing at all (for those who wish to use Remote Play between their PSP and PS3)
  • Update via Network (taken from M33)
  • * That Evangelion Jo game we told you about; it can be launched & played now
  • Pandora (converting the battery to/from the Pandora-state) and Shutdown Device options added to the VSH menu
  • Flash1 format option adds a check that prevents a flash1 format if enabled
  • Access [remains open] to the PlayStation Store and Remote Play continues working
* Playing Evangelion: Jo without having to patch the ISO is a bit unstable. This is more or less a proof-of-concept to bypass the newly introduced CFW check. Proper details on countering this protection will be released later. For now — very quickly press Triangle & Circle when starting the game. It should work.
Once again — props to the GEN team. Nice work.

  Bugiin 1.3 Released posted by djdynamite123
07-02-2009
 


brunette_redhead has released Bugiin 1.3.
"bugiin" is a game on which you should clear the screen of all insects that are present on the screen.
Quote:
If you have ever played Mario Paint for the SNES, then you have probably played the Gnat Attack game (also known as Coffee Break). My game is a spinoff of this, created for the Wii. I took many creative liberties with it, including redoing all of the sound effects with my brother and my girlfriend, and switching up the game modes just a bit.
There are two main game modes, the "Classic" mode, which is level based much like the original. There is also a "Swarm" mode which features endless enemies.
What's new?

* Classic mode supports 2 players now.
* An options menu has been added to select graphics mode and toggle music/sfx.
* Swarm mode uses new swatter graphics.
* Screen shots can be taken by pressing the 1 button at any time.
* Pressing the 2 button brings up a help screen.
* Pressing plus during gameplay pauses game.
* Added border during gameplay.

  Nitro Engine v0.6.0 Released posted by brakken
07-02-2009
 



AntonioND
has released a new version of his PALib compatible 3D engine for the Nintendo DS. The Nitro Engine is a project for Nintendo DS developers which is aimed at implementing 3D based gameplay into their projects more easier.

What's New?

-The functions used to modify textures and palettes now return a pointer to the data so that you can modify them easily.
-Each material can have different propierties (amient, diffuse...). You can set the default ones, the propierties each new material will have, and then you can set each material's propierties individually.
-New texture and palette allocation system, it is faster and better. Defragmenting functions don't work now, but I'll fix them for the next version.
-Added a debug system. You can compile Nitro Engine in "debug mode" and it will send error messages to the function you want. Once you have finished debugging or whatever, just recompile Nitro Engine without debug mode.
-Window system renamed to Sprite system. You can set a rotation and a scale for each one.
-The most important thing... The animation system has been improved, and now animated models are drawn using linear interpolation (you can disable it, anyway).
-As a result, I've modified the converters, so you'll have to convert yout animated models again.

  MIKE Updated posted by brakken
07-02-2009
 

The MIKE Team a flavor of GC-Linux that runs off of MINI has been updated.

Quote:
The 'mini' kernel is now at its second preview version, based on linux kernel 2.6.30. This new release brings additional enhancements when running under the 'mini' firmware replacement. Now you can make use of 11 additional megabytes of MEM2 RAM and the potential hardware input/output latency issues have been cleared thanks to the until-now-barely-disclosed AHBPROT feature.
And if you missed the original post ...

Quote:
It's a pleasure to introduce you to our new project member, the MIni(-based) KErnel Preview One (aka MIKE p1). Thanks to the hard work of Team Twiizers, with a special mention to Marcan, MINI (http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Mini), the firmware replacement for the Starlet processor, can be used to access all the Nintendo Wii video game console hardware without artificial restrictions. This initial kernel preview proves that the use of Software Libre is a real alternative to proprietary software, and that similar or better results can be achieved through its use and embracement.

  hbcxmlgen-bash MOD Released posted by djdynamite123
07-01-2009
 

Nerdii has released a modified hbcxmlgen-bash, a meta.xml generator to be used along with your'e applications via the HmebrewChannel.
Quote:
Works on any computer that can run .sh scrpts!
Have you heard of it on WiiBrew.org before??
Well, here is my MOD version.
Modified for easy use!
# hbcxmlgen-bash - This script makes the meta.xml file for the Homebrew Channel in
# the current working directory. It also checks if it exists and asks
# if you want to overwrite it. I won't lie, the name is stolen from
# pinecone's Java-based app of the same name and purpose. I wrote this
# because if you don't want to screw with Java, hey, you shouldn't have to!
# I'm afraid this is the only contribution I can make to the Wii homebrew
# scene with my current skillset. I credit the WiiBrew community for sparking
# my initial interest in programming. Thank you!

  Psx4Wiz test 8 posted by brakken

HardyX has released a new version of his Sony Playstation One emulator for the the GP2X WiZ. I've had to say for only "test 8" this emulator has made some great progress and can run many commercial games at full speed. Just another great addition to the GP2X WiZ's archive of games, emulators and applications.

Quote:
Hello friends,
Os dejo Psx4Wiz test 8. It is a development release for those who want to test games and discuss the results. Have a read in Spanish and English with the keys and their use.

Saquéis not in the news still is not the final version. I've been working on speeding up the painting and the memory, and there is still much room for improvement. This version is slightly faster than the previous one. Later I will test with OpenGL, but I can not promise anything. These developments are bringing:

- Selection of cpu speed from 100 to 800 mhz.
- Fixed the buttons X / Y and L / R that was changing.
- Use of wiz_lib to accelerate the painted screen.
- Disabled the sound, which would earn some frames.
- Skin background menus emulator.
