Actually gpSP has been already ported to Zaurus; I used to play with it quite a lot before reflashing.

And it's extremely fast and stable

gonna find the package

Hi. I actually know the author of gpSP and we were talking about his emulator when he brought up the fact there's a gpSP port to the Zaurus.

I actually stopped developing for the Zaurus since I had to sell it for money I needed. I miss it though.

If I ever am able to get a Zaurus Cxxxx again, I'll definitely port the new psx4gp2x over. I finally got the dynarec working well. It should run great on the Zaurus. Shouldn't have sold it.

Thanks for the support! I can hardly wait to get back into Zaurus development again. :)

Hi zodttd

There are C1000 for a few more than USD 300 on pricejapan.com these days. I'm sure that a lot of people would be willing to donate so you can have one and port the latest version of psx4gp2x... I know I would , even though I'm still saving for buying my c3200  

(next month if everything goes well... yai !)

Of course, It would be even better if it were open-sourced in the process, so Oz/Angstrom people can try to work on it, too ^ ^

I really would like to opensource it, but I don't like how the code is right now. I'm trying to see if others such as Exophase (since he's reading...Exophase is an amazing dynarec programmer!  ) will help with some rewriting of it. At that point I'll speak to Unai (who wrote the GPU and helped greatly) if he will allow the GPU to be open sourced. I think it should be a public SVN type project similar to OpenTTD imho.

If there is enough demand to raise $150, I can match it and get a C1000. $300 seems about the price I'm finding them for, and pricejapan is where it's at usually. I really want to get ZPSX updated as I think it will be truly playable (I would say fullspeed, but peoples definitions of fullspeed can be weird) at native ps1 FPS. It was close with some previous versions. Now it's obtainable with a bit of work.

I also want to bring over a new OpenTTD to the Zaurus, as well as a more "official" gpSP. Since Exophase (who is an amazing dynarec programmer btw! ;P ) wrote gpSP so well that it can support the GP2X with a dynarec, with little effort I should be able to get the ARM dynarec working on the Zaurus version if it isn't already.

Thing is, barely anyone is posting to this topic so I wonder if there's the demand for a new ZPSX, gpSP, and OpenTTD.

That's great news

Well, to me the oesf forums aren't very active these days (maybe not this one, but I barely read it as I don't use pdaXrom on my old 5500... so I can't really say). Consequence of the announced end of the zaurii line ? Hope not :-/

Whatever, I'm not really into openttd kind of games, but I'm really interested in zpsx and gpSP. That is, once I got my 3200

Thanks for the support. What's the latest and greatest for distro's for the Z besides pdaxrom, if nobody minds me asking? I've been out of the loop since the official word from Sharp about the end of the product line. I figured everyone just upped and left.

You mean what ROM is getting a lot of attention besides pdaXrom? I believe that would be Angstrom. But pllease continue to develop ZPSX for pdaXrom, it's still quite popular.

actually we are not entirely sure about the supposed end of the production line...apparently sharp continued the production after the date they said would mark the end of the production line...
more info in this thread:

https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=22804&st=160

yes, the forum hasn't got much attention lately... this could be due to several reasons. i'd say one one of them being the fact that pdaxii3 got rock stable so no one has any problems with it  
or it could be just that there isn't much going on on the Z scene lately. but zodttd can make the scene just a bit more exciting if he could pull out a decent speed psx emu. i would gladly help with the donations... er...that is, once paypal finally gets available in my country   hey zodttd, currently, the Z port of the gpsp doesnt utilize the whole screen, can anything be done about that?

No paypal in croatia  ?  I thought I saw croatia in the list of "extended network country" but I'm not sure what that mean... Maybe It's just "sending funds" ? https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_...onality-outside

Does moneybooker permit accounts from croatia ?

i myself am not sure what extended network  means...paypal isn't the only problem, i also don't have a credit card (i'm a student) and my parents...er,let's just say they aren't exactly tech savvy so they think that giving me a credit card is a bad idea. Moneybookers? never heard of it...

I'll pony up US$30 for the cause. Is that paypal link on the gp2x wiki good, zodttd?

(I'd have donated $20 but I was intending to donate earlier and didn't - shame on me! ...oh and the exchange rate's gotten way better for AUS$   )
