GP2X-CAP32: Amstrad CPC Emulator for GP2X v1.2.0

Hi All,

For those who haven't seen previous versions, Caprice32 is one of
the best emulator of the Amstrad CPC home computer series running
on Windows and Unix, written by Ulrich Doewich.
This emulator faithfully imitates the CPC464, CPC664, and CPC6128 models
(see caprice32 project)

What's new in version 1.2.0 :

- Major Speed improvements, it's now close to fullspeed !
- Import CRT emulation part of older version of Caprice32 v4.1.0
(less accurate, but much faster)
- Add two new render modes : Fast and Ultra.
- Sound is now played in 16 bits and stereo !
- Display and save thumbnail images for each save state
- New speed limiter function
- Add option to display fps rate
- Option to prevent the blue led to be displayed when
L or R are pressed
- Add a simple intro splash screen
- Support iso8859-1 fonts in print text functions
(might be useful to translate menus in german, french ...)
- Bug fix and code cleaning

How to use it ? Everything is in the README file.

This package is under GPL Copyright, read COPYING file for more information about it.

Here is a full working binary and source :

Thanks to KaosOverride for the hints on VDU stuff

Enjoy,

Zx.

Oh my god, Thank you very much ZX81, i am very happy for this emu, the AMSTRAD CPC was my first computer.
I hope of see very soon FULL SPEED to 200 Mhz, now to 200Mhz is too much slow, to 250 is very good, but the batteries life are a great problem.
Thank you,

P.S. ZX81 a Porting of PAST-O-RAMA (SG1000-3000) emulator is possible?

First of all, thanks for your kind comment

To answer your question i do not plan to port any emulator soon (i've already ported so much, i'm a bit fed up

).

Cheers, Zx

Hi zx81,

i have found a strange problem with GP2XCAP.
When i use the TV OUT, the speed of the emu is near to full speed.
Exsample: CLOCK 220, FPS LIMIT OFF, frameskip 0, ULTRA
With tv out many games go to 46FPS, but when return to screen of gp2x, with same setting, i have slowdown
In gp2x i see 41FPS, or 36 FPS.
The tv OUT improvment the speed of the emu O_O.?
Thank you.

Hi Darkgate,

Thanks for your comment. About the TV-out faster than normal display, i don't see why but if you say so, it should be true

.
