Atari 5200 emulator

** 2.0.3 released on 2007-07-11

 

* win32/msc/Makefile: fixed a problem that appeared when I switched to another version of NMAKE ("fatal error U1100: macro '$@' is illegal in the context of batch rule '.c.obj'")

 

* win32/atari_win32.c: new command-line option "-win32keys" for keyboard layouts different from US (the emulator relies on Win32 API to do scan code translations)

 

* win32/main.c, win32/screen_win32.[ch]: an option to run the emulator in a window ("-windowed" on the command line)

 

* DOC/PORTING: an introduction to writing platform-specific part of Atari800

 

* util.c: Make sure user does not updir from the root in WinCE

 

* wince/port/*, ui_basic.c, DOC/INSTALL.wince: added support for QVGA landscape smartphones, added the virtual keyboard (kb_ui) and updated documentation.

 

* cartridge.[ch], ui.c, DOC/cart.txt: added 128 KB SpartaDOS X cartridge type, by the way: shortened the cartridge code and replaced letters with numbers for bank indexing in the documentation

 

* input.[ch], atari_x11.c, win32/main.c: middle button support for ST and Amiga mice

 

* antic.c: corrected PMG in bizarre ANTIC/GTIA modes

 

* antic.[ch], ui.c: new style of artifacting

 

* win32/msc/Makefile, win32/msc/config.h, DOC/INSTALL: upgraded VC++ from 6.0 to 2005

 

* util/act2html.*: replaced my old C program with a Perl script; the Perl script keeps hues from different palettes together which I think is better for palette comparisons

 

* util/colors.asx, util/colors.xex: Atari program that displays all 256 colors

 

* util/crlf.*, util/keyboard.txt, util/usage2html.pl: removed

 

* util/readme.txt: updated

 

* act/gray.act: 0x00,0x11,0x22,... instead of 0x00,0x10,0x20,...

 

* util/sethdr.pl, util/sethdr.txt: removed; the script hasn't been updated for years (so it supported only half of current cartridge types), wasn't portable, etc. "Create Cartridge from ROM image" in the emulator basically does the job of the removed script.

 

* util/makebb.bat: removed; anyone who is serious about making a ROM image of "Bounty Bob Strikes Back 5200" by concatenating 3 files can read DOC/cart.txt

Here it is- the first 3.51-based Custom Firmware;

Some Russian coders going by the name Team M33 have released PSP firmware CFW v3.51 M33, to the delight of PSP owners everywhere. This pretty much means more homebrew for more people.

 

 

All of the functions the v3.51 firmware have been retained in this release including PS1 support, high video resolution, MP3 visualizer, and Internet navigation. You can also expect to be able to launch official UMDS which require v3.51 firmware which is pretty good considering the sizable libraries some people have collected. For those who want more, the firmware also allows direct launching of ISOs/CSOs, homebrews, and PS1 images.

 

Here are some of the other features you might want to know:

 

* Ability to alter the CPU speed of the PSP

* Recovery mode

* Multi-region

* Customize all your icons and more

 

The instructions for installation are in a file called readme.en which you can open using any text-file editor. If you're doing this for the first time, please be careful since custom firmware could possibly brick your PSP, so remember to read the instructions completely and follow it to the letter. That said, enjoy the PSP firmware CFW v3.51 M33.

Remember M33 is new on the scene so whether you want to trust them and install this is upto you. Bear in mind, as with all flashing apps there is a real risk of BRICKING YOUR PSP when using this, so be careful.

Considering the 3.51 firmware is of a vastly different arrangement than 3.40, making this CFW was no easy task. Could the PSP scene have found itself a new Dark_AleX?
