(Supremacy with frameskip at only 1!!) - but i'm afraid results are generally to varied to be that memorable!
    Ive very fond memories of Alien Breed (one of the original 'make you jump' games! ) and Xenon II is a classic (the soundtrack for this was awesome) - I'll try them then PMing you for running advice...

    the legendary David Whittaker transposed it to the amiga though.

    I would imagine that the vinyl (if its in good condition) is worth a few quid now!

    I'm finding .55a to be smoother with sound on a number of games versus .54 (I didn't get a chance to download .55)

    Eg. Paradroid '90 is now full speed and flawless sound.

    The new filter is nice but still no go for the Floor 13 text becuase I think the filter is applied to the display after it has been scaled to a lower res for the PSP display, so what you end up with is an enhancement of less picture information.

    I could be wrong on that, but the black on white fine text ends up looking like squiggly lines because once you lose a pixel-wide line in scaling down it's gone for good. So the thicker lines show up but the thin ones are lost.

    I'll fiddle with it some more tonight.

    The other thing I've been meaning to try out is how the PSP screen and the filter handle HAM (Hold and Modify) screen modes since those will have a lot of pixel wide fine lines.

    There's very few games that used HAM mode (it's essentially a super hi-res still frame), and only one that I can think of off the top of my head that actually used it in action -- Heart of the Dragon, a really piss-poor game (my mini-review is a bit biased since I paid $50 for that turd :-).

    Another HAM mode game is Unreal (not the FPS) in the 'we cloned Shadow of the Beast' side scrolling part (the other part of the game is a lower res dragon flight sim on rails -- pratically a prototype Panzer Dragoon.

    BIG thanks to you guys for making progress with this emu. I had to do a double take when I first realised there was an Amiga emulator for my humble PSP.

    I was a serious amiga gamer and made my first tune using Fast Tracker. Lotus Challange, Turrican, Wings and Gods were also a few of my favorites - but this favorite list could be a helluv alot longer.

    Keep up the Great work. MegaBlasting Spot On!
