    Our New Machine, Pandora

    the pro's and con's of adding an individual feature don't take into account the cons of having multiple features together. which is the point im trying to get at, you still have to use your own judgement to make sure all the things you pick work well together, and didn't just get included...

    Our New Machine, Pandora

    I wouldn't have bothered with a keyboard either. I'm aware that the majority of people asked said they'd rather it had one, but my problem is that simply asking "what do you want in your handheld" isn't very constructive at all. for example do you want the cpu twice as fast? of course you do...

    Our New Machine, Pandora

    Just seen/read about the specifications and thought i'd give my 2c. I really quite dig the specifications, but so many details are missing - does the gpu share the system ram? if so DDR is going to seriously cripple the fill rates, how quick is the pipeline between the cpu and gpu? and cpu/gpu...

    I Just Got My Gp2x!!!

    Last system I had was ye olde GP32, tempted to get the new model for (writing) homebrew. Seems like a mixed bag of results at the moment, lots of minor niggles etc. Would you guys who have one say that it's still worth the price even taking the niggles into account?

    Gigas Bitten The Dust????

    Well, i spent a few days coding a whole new menu system which didnt work out - i wanted it a bit more 'windows' so you could have multiple things open, and used a cursor to tick box's and change values by clicking arrows. it looked much better, but isnt actually very good with a d-pad as it...

    Gigas Bitten The Dust????

    Hiya - i haven't been on here for a while (too much time in World of Warcraft) but Gigas is far from dead. its not really a platform specific project so even if the GP32 community suddenly died, i'd still work on the project and port it over to some other formats. I have a PSP and a DS, the DS...

    Gigas Engine 0.7.5

    Because of the amount of features i've managed to cram in lately, the next release may jump straight to 0.9.0 - hopefully it'll have everything minus audio done and dusted which means you can make a game, and do all the stuff i've been promising since i first announced the project years ago. At...

    Gigas Engine 0.7.5

    Hiya Rick, i think your probably the chap i just sent an e-mail to! To answer your questions. 1.) Once the GP32 version is done, i'll be porting it to PC and other formats which will be compatible, so you can play games made on the GP32, on the PS2 version for example - but for now im only...

    Entities Not Moving

    Strange, was the logo the correct 320x240 one, or the older smaller file?

    Gigas Engine 0.7.5

    Indeed, unless its a multi-player game i dont really see the need in showing what armour is worn or what weapon is equipped. weapons may be linked to a certain attack animation, so if you wanted to you have a different attack depending on what weapon is equiped - but the look of your character...

    Gigas Project Discussion

    maps support custom tilesets, so you could make two tilesets - one for normal, one for dark - maybe have it start off normal, then later change to dark.
