    • General

    +BUG: When you select the list of drivers the current driver pause and stays in the background
    +BUG: Fixed joystick.

    +NEW: M68000 - New CPU core, with many bugs but enough for some drivers from starting up.
    +ENHANCE: NEC765 - Implemented ´Hexagon´ protection and other improved features, more games now load
    +ENHANCE: Added functions for generic moving of 8, 16 and 24 bits for the decryption of ROMs (Popeye, Toki, etc)

    Irides (formerly known as Blocks²: Master of Blocks) is available for preorder via GOAT-Store.com:






    Quote:
    Irides is an incredible puzzler game where the player has to match blocks of similar colors together to eliminate them and move on. The faster that the blocks are connected, the higher the points are when they are finally eliminated! It's a game of risk and reward that is constantly pitting the player against the clock and seeing if they have what it takes to become the Master Of Blocks!

    Irides features a bunch of features that Dreamcast publishers wouldn't even have thought about including in 1999! Online codes allow for the unlocking of extra content and worldwide rankings online against other Irides players. Pre-ordering before the official release date guarantees not just a copy of the Dreamcast game, but also will include a code for a downloadable copy of the iPhone version so you can take Irides on the road with you.

    On top of this, the Dreamcast version contains spectacular modes and lots of great things to unlock A multiplayer mode allows up to four players to play at once, throwing blocks at one another to establish dominance, and a co-op mode allows you to team up with those that you would otherwise be competing against, setting the stage for another great challenge. Of course, the single player mode will also allow you to challenge and play through all of the different modes of Irides that there are.

    Irides is now available for pre-order at the GOAT Store, LLC's web site for only $21.90. The pre-order includes two bonuses -- a free download of the iPhone version of Irides, as well as a promo poster for the game. These pre-order goodies will only be available for those who pre-order the game before it's official relase.

    A final release date will be announced soon, but Irides is well on it's way to landing in this universe by December of this year, and keeping the Dreamcast alive with its first new release in its second decade of life!

    Many Apple fans like myself love the cool games available for the iPhone and iPod.

    To a considerable degree, the gaming experience for the Apple product line can hold its own with the lineup available for any competing portable video game handheld maker - even the PSP, in my estimation. In addition to cost effectiveness and appearance, the outright game play for many titles just feels better on my iPhone. And it's impossible to place a value on the convenience factor of "game readiness."

    But as analyst Jeff Bakalar pointed out following last night's Apple event, there's still something missing from the iPhone and iPod gaming experience. And it's hard to put your finger on exactly what it is.

    As of this morning iPhone 3GS owners can no longer restore to firmwares 3.0 or 3.0.1. This is due to the fact that Apple has stopped signing these files and if you try and restore using one you'll get an error. So this means you should be very very careful until 3.1 is jailbroken because if you mess up your phone... you can only go up to 3.1 as of now. Additionally if you do not have your IBSS and IBEC signatures and you restore, you may never be able to jailbreak again.

    iPhone 3G and first generation owners should still be able to restore with no problems.

    Booboo has posted some news on his site:

    No big news. Ingenic released a new kernel patch, which mostly adds support for a new development board. There are though some minor changes in common parts of the assembly code in the core, so, just in case they had fixed some bug I applied the patch (their ChangeLog doesn't say anything, though).

    I tested the two major standing problems (USB failure when using DMA and card corruption when using 4-bit bus mode) and they're both still there. Regarding this last issue, I recently had my card corrupted again, so there is a chance that setting the card in 1-bit bus mode only makes the bug much less likely to happen.

    Some other in-no-particular-order news:

    Fixed the network mask problem (changed from 255.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.252).
    Rebuilt the whole toolchain and rootfs as MIPS32r1 architecture (was MIPS I). This should result in faster, smaller code. Ingenic doesn't even mention in their documentation that the CPU is MIPS, much less say which MIPS flavor it is. However, Vladimir Silyaev noticed that the Ingenic kernel default configuration is for MIPS32r1, so the toolchain should be too).
    The guys at Qi-Hardware sent me a prototype of their Ben NanoNote device. A post on this soon. They also got a newer patch from Ingenic (kernel 2.6.27), but I'm yet to find time to examine it for fixes that might solve the USB DMA or the card corruption problems (not optimistic thought, because any important fixes should have gone out in their latest "official" 2.6.24.3 patch).
    Some users have reported flash write failures during dual-boot installation. The original SPL restore feature works fine, though. It seems that they have bad pages in the first flash block (which is normal in NAND flash) and the flash write tool doesn't handle them properly. This should be easy to fix, but will take some time because I haven't got an A320 with bad pages.

    News/release from mrLogan

    Just doing a quick release because the preview had some serious issues. I suggest removing the preview before putting this one in place. There is still a lot could be done to this but since Vice is out (and I hear is a better emulator in principle) I will only continue with this one if there is performance problems with Vice.

    Frodo (Commodore 64) v0.1
    =======================================

    Changes since the preview:
    -zip support removed
    -tape (.t64) and (.d64) disk image support
    -in game menu including image selector
    -Speed Limiter
    -Joystick Control Swap

    Emulator Installation
    ---------------------
    Copy the folder over as usual and add an item to your menu configuration. Sample below.

    MenuItem FrodoPC

    {
    Icon = "/usr/local/emulators/FrodoDingoo/commodore.png"
    Name = " FrodoPC"
    Executable = "./FrodoPC"
    WorkDir = "/usr/local/emulators/FrodoDingoo"
    Selector = no
    }

    C64 Games and Apps Installation
    -------------------------------
    put .d64 and .t64 files in the 64images folder.


    Starting a game and Controls
    ----------------------------

    Once you see the Commodore 64 screen press R to bring up the menu.
    Go down to "Swap Disk/Tape" and press A.
    Select the .t64 or .d64 image you want and press A. The emulator should briefly reset.
    Then hold down L and press SELECT and you should hopefully have started your game/app.

    Dpad and button A = joystick
    START = Virtual Keyboard (just the basics for now)
    R = Menu

    Menu Options
    ============

    Resume = Resume
    Quit = Quit Emulator
    Control = set control to either joystick 1 or joystick 2
    Sound = On/ Off
    LimitSpeed = On / Off (I had to guess at the right speed so let me know if you think it's running too slow or fast)
    Reset C64
    Swap Disk/Tape
