UnOfficial gpSP 0.91 Kai

[Exophase]

as anyone tried it

I just want to know if it runs super mario advance #? (the one that is yoshi story)

Exophase says that gpSP 0.9 can run it with the correct gba bios and also mario and lugi superstar saga

I have mario & luigi superstar saga up and runing but yoshi story crashes, so i don't think is the bios file

Guess again. Read my sig. It's true.

About the readme, he took it from the GP2X version, like some other things, although it doesn't really line up. That's why it looks like it was written by me, because it was.

I'm glad he finally released the source, but pretty disappointed. There were things claiming that he proved the speed of the video renderer by 2-3% but I can't see anything there that would actually suggest this. All he did was changed a loop to a memset. Maybe that helped because he didn't fix something ELSE to improve FF6's speed (given that that's his big hype machine right now ;P)

Course, he fixed FF6 using hints from the GP2X version... I bet when I finally do release the next version (probably 0.95, NOT 1.0) everyone will claim I used his code to fix FF6.. oh well.

Ah, who would do that? Everybody knows, who's project gpsp is and who's done mostly all of the work on it, don't you think so?

But anyways, new official version sounds great. Good luck!

We all know you're the real coder and I would never believe that the other guy is anywhere as good as you are at coding this. To me he's just put your creation under his own name.

No, i don't think that's true. I think, he just doesn't care and does fixes to gpsp he likes to do.
I mean, he isn't publishing it with a big "hello" or even trying to get some credits for it.
He just puts it on his site and that's it.
That's why i don't see the point of all this wuzz at all....

[Exophase]

Go look at his site, he made a little logo, little sourceforge setup...

He has a list of compatibility problems, but since it's in Japanese it's useless to me, translating it reveals almost nothing concrete enough to be meaningful. So does he make any effort to actually get this information to me, someone who is much more capable of working with my own code than he is (as if such an obvious thing were in doubt, I've pretty much proven this over and over again)? No, of course not, leading everything to a standstill.

He only cares about getting Japanese games to work anyway. Although I've mainly only done idle loop hacks for US games I always focus on compatability for all regions. To us it looks like he's doing this in isolation, but I'm quite aware that he has his own group of followers over in Japan, and chances are they think he's the author of the emulator anyway.

I'm the primary worker on this emulator, always have been, so if you're going to try to improve it it'd make sense to run your findings by me so that I can incorporate them into the actual main build, and not just make mysterious changes in the source that I then have to comb over and try to pick out what's worthwhile. Besides, I maintain gpSP for more than just the PSP version, but that's all he cares about. He goes and completely changes things around the code to very little effect without any consideration of how this will complicate adding any changes back into the main branch. Why? Because he obviously doesn't want his changes to be merged with mine, he wants to maintain a separate fork so that he can appear to be the author of the emulator, and he wants to compete with me.

However I am glad he finally released up to date source, but he's still putting up newer "test" versions without source, which is NOT okay. Calling it "test" doesn't make it anything less than a normal release.

BTW, if someone wants to do me a big favor and actually properly translate that compatibility so I can read it then maybe I can get to work on fixing some of the things there.

how can he compete with you? your the one who made the emu in the first place i have no problems with 09 so i'm not going to use this.

HE'S ALIVE!!!

New release, sounds great
but please, please please please fix 32mb roms

No I won't give you a copyrighted ROM.

32MB ROMs work, what are you talking about? Do you mean Kingdom Hearts?

[Gold Line]

kingdom hearts CM works fine. so does pokemon mystery dungoen

I went through the diff and documented all the changes. It took me forever. I hate that Takka bastard :P

http://exophase.devzero.co.uk/gpsp_diff.txt

A majority of the differences are due to incorporating changes I made in the GP2X version, including game fixes that he's basically taking credit for. I won't bother going over those because he didn't do it.

These are the main things he has actually done himself, this is for ALL versions he has released after gpSP 0.9:

- Fixed sbcs and thus FF6 (thanks to hints left in the GP2X version of cpu.c)
- Multilingual support (although only Japanese/English are present in the files)
- Can make screenshots (so you too can hype FF6)
- Displays battery information and crap (you know, that stuff that shows up if you press home)
- Made a bunch of new configuration files for stuff
- Lets you define where various files should go
- MAYBE fixes other games by fixing some generic programming error in some line in the sound code.

I'm not going to list the silly modifications he made because he thinks he knows better or any of the things he made worse.

You know, I think the most annoying part of all of this is that it took me more time to read through/document the friggin diff than it would have taken me to implement each and every one of those features myself.

Also, blackrave, I'm a guy..
