is installation simple enough in pdaxrom beta1? I'm asking because I'd like to help you in testing but I have not that much time to setup a dev setup or to complete difficult installations. I cannot find a complete even if brief list of installation steps

• Open aterm with launcher in lower left hand corner (usually).
• Make a new directory in location you would like to install (e.g., 'mkdir /directory/zpsx', optional).
• Goto the installation directory (e.g., 'cd /directory/zpsx').
• Download file (e.g., 'wget [a href=\"http://www.friggingames.com/zpsx030.zip')]http://www.friggingames.com/zpsx030.zip')[/url].
• Extract to folder (e.g., 'unzip ./zpsx030.zip').
• Add execution permissions to program if you extracted it to a supporting filesytem such as ext2 or ReiserFS. (e.g. 'chmod +x ./zpsx_xscale_snd').
• Run program (e.g. './zpsx_xscale_snd').

Just wondering what the status of the dynarec/ asm code is?

[urielka]

not good.
i have no time right now for this.
i will have more time on next weeks.
basicly i got 3 months of school(and work at a startup company) and then i am free
so i guess it will be done when i and AntiPasta will have time.

Hi everyone.

New release out:
http://www.friggingames.com/zpsx035.zip

This release should have a large speed increase. It uses assembly for the gpu blitting routines.

There's quite a few changes, so read the changes.txt inside the zip file.

Also, thanks to xdivider, the select key now works.

Urielka: Sorry to hear that. 3 months isn't toooo long though. ;P

man,set up the SVN/CVS i will have some time next week and i hope i can convert a big part of the interpter to asm

Thanks for the new release! I was getting scarred because we went a whole day without a comment on this thread!  

I do notice an increase in speed for 2D stuff and menus in FFVII, but the battle sequences are noticably slower. The framerate is only slightly lower, but the speed at which everything happens is reduced. Also, with a frameskip greater than two, there are times where it will jump back and display a frame that was displayed 2 or 3 frames ago, and do it a few times. This didn't happen in the v.0.30 release. Good call on the screen cropping, I was about to recommend something along the lines of that, but you already implemented it! Keep up the great work!

Thanks for the update. However it hangs in the same location that previous locations did. I was kinda surprised and tested the versions I have. This hanged in v0.05, 0.10, 0.30 and 0.35 but not in 0.06 and 0.20. I wonder if it is related to the frame skip as those 2 versions did not have that option.

edit: tried loading a save game but it hanged after the list of save games was displayed. I notice some sluggishment in the initial screen where you are suppose to choose a char to play. The game is daikoukai gaiden.

tested bubble bobble 2: playable, just slightly slow.

You should add a check that desn't let you start loading wrong files, or let you exit during loading. It would help testing; it's not that good force-rebooting every time something goes wrong.

wazzup with the emu? everything sleeping?

Very good to hear that some arm asm has made its way in already- with the amount of enthusiasm for this program and a number of good coders interested in seeing it sped up I'm sure things will be up to a good (full!) speed quite quickly.

Thanks for all your help xdivider but as soon as you said 'zpsx doesn't work at 320x240 under Sharp' I just gave up- it was 320x240 or nothing for me! I'll just wait for the next C3000 pdaxrom release then I'll get to try this great program.  

Still no mame for the Z with cyclone m68k to be seen tho. That cyclone emulator could also bring us full-speed amiga, atari st and x68000 emulation too. Does anyone here own both a Zaurus AND a x68000?

Keep those updates coming zodttd!

Good Zodttd!

zPSX 0.35 @ 624MHz / SHELL mode

-GTA 1, working nice no bugs and good speed/ I dont have GTA2 (GTA2 has better code and is faster then GTA1)
-SonicWings, runing best now, full speed
-FF Tatics, good 50% of speed
-Samurai Shodow 3 workin but very very very slooooooooooooooooooooow!

my poor 860 stucks at 471 Mhz...
I'll try gta, but it sounds too heavy for my baby

The latest build is just too slow for me. Any chance that the asm blitting stuff works really well on the bvdd and not so well on us Imageon w100 users? Maybe a future release can use the old blitting code with a command-line switch or something if it proves to be the case.
