I feel a litlle stupid posting this but i have no other option....

How do you get games to run on this?? I can play the .sna games that are already included, but cannot load any games i've downloaded....?
 
You're one up on me, the Amstrad is my fav retro system, and I'm dying to play some of it's games... but I just get a black screen when I run this emu. :(

Oh my mistake, I hadn't copied the folder correctly.... but yeah, I'm in the same boat now, only the snapshot files work. and they're quite stuttery... does anyone know if it's still being worked on? It's a very good start and would love (and pay) for this to be finished.
 
I had that problem and it was because for some reason the first time i downloaded it, the rom files needed were not in the rom directory. Don't know if this applies to you though.....

I'm desperate to play some of old games from way back!!
 
Guys, try reading the readme first:

-DSK: Load Floppy (Disabled for now)
-TAPE: Load tape (Disabled for now)
-SNAP: Load snapshot (Only way for now to load programs/games)

And it's all in the works:

-TODO:Complete menu (DSK, CDT, Options), virtual keyboard, migrate to some ASM-ARM Z80 core

Solution?

I haven't tried this, but it theoretically should work.

Load up a .DSK game in the PC version of Caprice. Save a Snapshot on the title screen. Load the resulting .SNA file on the GP2X version. Should be quicker to load, too.

Huzzah?

That works a treat!!!! Snapshotted it after starting the game.

Got Sorcery on my GP2X - brill.

Thanks very much :)

Sorry another quick question.

One of my favourite games is Thrust.

Unfortunately when i try and play it on the GP2X the controls for left and right aren't working. This is Z and X on the keyboard. Is there a way to get the GP2X to emulate the keys Z and X - fire and shield work fine.

Thanks!
