Droid Support

Hi, cps2 and jarcade-lite now works on Droid.

For cps2, I've published new apk (cps2hd) to run natively on Android 2.0.
For Jarcade-lite, it's just another update.

For Jarcade, i plan to do an update later today or tomorrow.

====

After playing with it for a while, Droid isn't as bad as I initially thought...

I use 270 rotation option with d-pad..and it works pretty good.

Droid vs Passion

i actually deleted the previous post as it might not be a fair comparison at this point with "not-so-latest" firmware.

Anyway, here is my bottom line.

If you're in Verizon, and can wait, wait for Passion which will outperform Droid in many categories...

Wait till you can try both devices and make decision.

i'll post video to compare cps2 speed (fs level=0) on both devices.

Update - PLEASE READ!

After Android cps2 emulator, I pretty much stopped working on other projects.
Well...it's summer time...been busy with family...etc

Ok, first bad news...

I decided to suspend gp2x projects under debian/JTerm indefinitely and focus on Android side only.

JTerm has been withdrawn/unpublished from market already.

This is to avoid duplicate effort bringing on both debian and android project.
The debian/Jterm didn't bring enough people for me to keep pursuing and second, there are new android devices coming out but no root access. And even with root access+debian, people are struggling with package installation...etc.


Now, good news...i hope...

For those who purchased JTerm alrady, when they're available, I'll be giving out Jarcade which supports mame roms including neogeo and also the next emulator (not yet decided) after Jarcade for FREE!

I'm currently working on Jarcade and beta version should be ready in ~3 weeks and will get published to Android market after beta phase.

Tip
=======================================

I've been working on fixing audio problem but wasn't able to completely close out all issues.
So, you might hear some "tick-tick" sound or sort of jerky audio stream...from some games.

And one more thing, if you find display isn't working for some games, please try to press "Y" to toggle transparency hack.

And for those who's having a trouble seeing a character on some games (eg. super metroid), try "t".

It basically enables you to select which transparency layer to enable or not.

During game, press T and select A, B, X, Y to toggle which layer to enable or disable.
It's tedious...but In this way, you'll at least go through the scene and can enable it back later.
