gpSP v. 0.7 for Symbian^3

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
  • save/load states is now working

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.

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
  • 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.
  • Does not work on Nokia 500, since it doesn’t have GPU.

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 😉
