PLynx, your lynx emu port is awesome. Thank you very much for making this - I miss playing my old atari lynx and never did get a chance to finish electro cop.
I honestly wish I had some constructive criticism to add, wrather than just freely adding my thanks to a (likely) pile of others.
good Work
continue this emu
it's nice emu
thanks for old games to my lynx in the PSP
improve the sound and games compatibilty
bye,totoff
Good stuff!
Must have missed this update somehow. Downloading...
Why??? If you can make more improvement in the future then update it.
This is a bloody brilliant Atari Lynx emulator man!!
I think he meant latest not last if you look at all the prior releases they all say "last" also.
ok, ok :) I'll correct it :)
gets better all the time not to be a bagger but any chance you might try a atari jag emu or 7800 would be sweet
Just tested this on my 2.00 PSP and it works great. Thank you for the release PLYNX! Good work. If this could someday have true full screen support that would be awesome. Nevertheless, great release and I appreciate your hard work.
does this work on 2.6?
Fixed the EBOOT.pbp file for 1.5 (might work on other ver) so it would have a cool Icon and bg when you highlight the Emu. All thanks goes to the PLynx dev team. Hope it's ok as it is my first.
Ok, I have deleted the file from my last post and replaced it with a new ver. this one has audio that says "Beware I Live" Which all old school gamers should recognize. - Peace
Thank you phaze1 to have fixed the 1.5 EBOOT :)
Dearest PLynx (the posters above^)
oh god of the PSP homebrew emulation scene,
a true lover of the the Atari Lynx,
programming genius,
us mere mortal can not do what you can do on the Plynx emulator.
We beg you for the following fixes if you please...
i) True full screen (stretch the image fully horizontally on the PSP screen)
ii) When using the rotation, it also rotates the keys configuration,
iii) improves sounds
And that's it! The Atari Lynx emulator is perfect!
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you....
Thank you Cupid :)
But the real person who you should thank is Keith Wilkins, the original Handy author.
I just made the PSP port because I had some greats moments with my old Atari Lynx :)
But it's a pleasure to see that someone can have fun with this port, thank you.
Love the Lynx. still have a working one :)
Just tried Viking child but the picture gets distorted..
Also when playing pinball jam option 1 and 2 are under the same button, but in config they are under square and triangle.
Could be that I'm doing something wrong.
I just love the emu !!!
Awww sorry my mistake, you are right, thank you to have found this bug, it's not only with pinball jam but all games.Quote:

Plynx, Thank you very much for the update:)
Yes I checked and updated my earlier gfx n sound modded PLynx%\Eboot.pbp to make sure it works with PLynx's new PLynx\Eboot.pbp patch. - Thanx again PLynx keepn it current.
By the way here are some pics

I registered here just to thank PLynx for the porting and adaptation of the Lynx emulator. I love it! I was going to report the same Option1/2 problem as it also pertains to Todd's Adventures in Slime World. I'll download the fixed version and see if it's OK now. Edit: It works great now!
Perhaps it's a good idea to rename this release to 0.9.1 and make sure it gets updated on all PSP sites as the only place I've found it is right here in this forum.
Thanks for the downloads,PLynx and all.i have them on file and i'll take them
for a spin on my psp!--thequietman2364 :D
Strange, tried to download 0.9 - doesn´t work! Tried to do this with 0.82 -> no problem. Please upload 0.9 again!Quote:

Great work Plynx! Many many thanks! the Plynx emulator is so cool. It was such a beatifull experience turning on the psp and seeing the nice big screen filled up with lynx sweetness, it almost filled my eyes with tears :)
I checked the plynx source code in hope that I could help improving the music as I know some C, but unfortanetly I didn´t understand much of the code as I don´t really know how emulators work. Anyway Thanks again and I´m keeping my fingers crossed that you sometimes get the idea to improve the sound emulation. in all other ways I think it´s perfect as long as you put the clockspeed to 265 or 333.
Nice work allso phaze1 on the intro screen which is great, and the "Bevare I live" intro talk is hilarious! :D
I'm also not a coder :(Quote:

Other good tests are the Jimmy Connors tennis cart intro and the digitized voices in Checkered Flag and Pinball Jam.
Luckily in-game sounds are usually fine, so it's not a high priority thing.
Man... I've almost exclusively been playing Slime World, Chip's Challenge, Crystal Mines 2 and Xenophobe! PLynx, what have you done!?! LOL
Hi,
I just downloaded Plynx for FW1.5 but it doesn't work for me. I can browse all the settings menu but I cannot see any .lnx or .zip roms in in the rom list even though I put some of the into the rom/ directory. (also the lynxboot.img is in the same folder as the EBOO.PBP)
Am I doing anything wrong?
Thanks for any advice!
Ah, just found the problem. The emulator code is comparing the file extensions against '.lnx' or '.zip' but from my debug session I found that the filenames readed from the mem card are using caps like '.LNX' and '.ZIP'
In other words the string coparison is case sensitive so the emulator 'cannot find the roms'.
I doble checked the filenames on my mem card and they *are* saved with *no caps* so I wonder what could cause such problem?
Anyway I changed the file extension definitions in the sources, recompiled and voila it works! :-)
The emulator is cool, thanks for your great work!
Well great for yyou and i hope it works much better :p
Has anyone managed to play Lemmings with this emulator? Whenever I try to start a level it shows the level but the trapdoor never opens and the level doesn't start, it just hangs there.
:)
Hi
I am sorry to send a stupid post... But I cannot use the emulator on my psp (ver 2.60). Well, actually I am quite lost with all the versions / updates available.. Should I take ver 0.9 PSP1_0 or 1_5? In either version, I get the message 'damaged data' when I try to launch the emulator (I only have the image of the lynx with the voice...)
If someone can help me, I would love it, as I am a huge fan of lynx (especially xenophobe and zarlor!)
Thank you very much
Your best bet would be to downgrade to 1.50 firmware (provided you don't have a TA-082 mainboard in your PSP).Quote:

Edit:
I've played around with it a little bit. You need lynxboot.img as well, just copy it over (not move) from the PLynx folder and the ROM files need to be unzipped. There's no sound support yet, so there's not much use for Lynx support other than testing.
Also note that it takes the emulator quite a while to actually start the ROM.
Speed looks awful in all modes until you turn the VSYNC wait off, then it's a lot faster than a real PSP even in GPU FULL mode. It's quite interesting playing Xenophobe this way for a bit :)
Conclusion so far: hang on to your PLynx!
where do u put the roms?
hello, i noticed in the options menu the first two options are: "psp cpu/bus clocks" and "lynx cycles/emulator cycle" but as much as i played with it i couldn't get the game to speed up? does anyone have any suggestions. i am trying to play California games and the speed feels like about 75% of what it should. How can i make it play at 100% (or even better like 120% of normal speed.)
I'm using the latest Dark Alex bios, and I'm trying to run this. I put all the stuff in the game150 directory and load it up. It loads fine. I see the roms fine. I select a rom, and it gives me Error "Loading Zip file problem". The name of the file isn't anything special, like electrocop.zip for example. I've checked, and the zip extension is all lower case, so I have no idea what else to do to fix this. Any help is appreciated. Any help out there?
Thanks PLynx, I just discovered this.
I owned a Lynx a little after they were marketed,
nad had lots of fun with Pinball Jam.
It was great to see it in action again :)
Cheers, Art.
when l try to load a rom l get 'A valid Lynx boot image could not be found. Any ideas ?
I can't find a way to contact the author, so I post it here. I had a play with this emulator, and boy it is allmost a complete illusion! What needs to be done tho is that you increse the sound frequencies. They are lowered with one octave. Raise it and the illusion will be spot on!
Yeah you need the file lynxboot.img to get the emulator to work. You can pick that up from atariage.comQuote:
