gpSP4Symbian v0.7

EmuCR:gpSP4SymbiangpSP4Symbian v0.7 is released. gpSP4Symbian is a Gameboy Advance emulator (GBA) for Symbian S60 3rd edition. This emulator is based on gpSP. It also uses SDL port by Anotherguest.

the gpSP is a gameboy advance emulator originally written by Exophase. And now it’s ported to the Symbian OS!

This version supports only Symbian^3 phones (N8, E7 etc.). The S60 5th edition users should use the older gpsp 0.6.5 for S60 5th edition

What’s new:

Support for Symbian^3
Better Audio
alpha channel for keys is now configured at video section (not in controls panel)
8-directional / 4 directional DPAD
Hidden A+B button areas



Controls:

You can choose between 8-directional and 4-directional DPads.
You can add hidden A+B button areas, to press both of them at once.

EmuCR: gpSP4Symbiangpsp: the red dots indicates the hidden A+B areas

know issues:

Mounted shares(Dropbox etc.) breaks the filemanger, so do not use mounted shares.
It’s a gpsp port, so see the gpsp compatibility list before complaining about non-working ROMs
sometimes after loading the state freezes the emulator in some games ( don’t worry, the batterysave still works)
the emulator crashes if you try to load a ROM without setting the BIOS
there are some limitations in the ZIP file support, so maybe you have to upzipt the ROMs
The ZIP files seem to be eating quite a lot of RAM, so If ROM doesn’t work, try extracting it.


ZIP limitations

WinZip
Roms ziped in the WinZip Maximum (PPMd) format WILL NOT work.
Roms ziped in the WinZip Maximum (bzip2) format WILL NOT work
Roms ziped in the WinZip Maximum (Enhanced Deflate) format WILL NOT run
Roms ziped in the WinZip Normal format WILL run
Roms ziped in the WinZip Fast format WILL run.
Roms ziped in the WinZip Super Fast format WILL run.
Roms ziped in the WinZip None format WILL run.


Installation:

Just download and install. The installer contains a smartinstaller which will download and install Qt 4.7.3 for you if you don’t have it yet. The installer might take some time, so be patient ;-)


The Bios:

Remember to set the correct bios before loading ROMs. Make sure to get an authentic one , it’ll be exactly 16384 bytes large and should have the following md5sum “a860e8c0b6d573d191e4ec7db1b1e4f6″. The Bios extension should be .bin
