CraigT (http://speccyds.wordpress.com/) has released some new news about his Spectrum Emulator for the DS, heres what he posted:
Its been a bit quiet on here, but SpeccyDS has been rumbling on…
I’ve been focusing on problems in the CPU core over the last few weeks. I must have made somewhere in the region of 5-10 bug fixes that have been preventing games from running. As a result, the following games that didn’t work 2 weeks ago now all work perfectly… Robocop, Chase HQ, Three Weeks in Paradise, Batman, Exolon, Bombjack and Dan Dare.
There are still issues with a few games, including Chaos (the AI doesn’t feel right), Starquake (crashes in game), Sabre Wulf (classic rhino emulation bug), Megabucks (crashes in the menu). I will be trying out more over the next few days.
I have also been giving some thought about emulating the sound. I’ve already solved how to regularly store the sound data from the CPU, but i’ve only briefly looked at how to convert this into a format that the DS will process. It looks like i’ve got some more reading ahead of me
