Some infos about the Wiz port from DJWillis:
[quote]This is just a quick post is to announce the 1.0.0 releases of the ScummVM for both the GP2X and the GP2X Wiz following on from the official announcement.
Please provide feedback on these releases and enjoy using them, this is a huge milestone for the ScummVM project and we are all very proud of this release.
New features since the 1.0.0 RC1 for my backends:
Below are the main features and fixes added with this new release from the earlier RC1 release.
Both releases feature additional ARM assembly optimised routines and tweaks to the build system along with a myriad of small ‘nips and tucks’.
There are also further tweaks to refine the use of the “Return to Launcher” and “Global Main Menu” features (remember that Left Trigger and Select/Home/Menu will bring up the Global Main Menu in any game).
This is in addition to the hundreds (litterally) of bug fixes that have gone into the core and game engines for this release from the ScummVM development team.
Supported engines:
Both releases feature support for all the game engines that are due to be included with the 1.0.0 release.
This includes support for high resolution games.
Specific restrictions:
Each of the releases has a small number of restrictions that have an affect on the games/engines you are able to use with each platform.
GP2X: The biggest restriction with this platform is the overhead of the scaling when using 640*480 games on the 320*240 screen making such game perform poorly.
GP2X Wiz: The downscaling support is a recently added feature to the Wiz backend and as such some issues still remain with high resolution games exhibiting ‘tearing’ when updating the screen under some circumstances. Unfortunately this seems to be an exhibit of the Wiz screen tearing bug and while efforts have been taken to minimise it in this release it the problem has not totally gone away.[/quote]

| [WIZ] Finally: Usb-Ethernet For The Wiz! |
|
|
submitted by EvilDragon @ (11:04) 19 Nov 2009 |
|
hcf did it - although it only was a small patch, it makes developing for the WIZ so much more comfortable!
hcf created a small program for the WIZ, which enables USB-Ethernet using the stock WIZ USB cable.
This does mean, that it is now possible to copy files over directly to the WIZ, run them via command line and see the debug output.
The same way it worked on the GP2X F100.
If you're interested, please check out the thread here. |

The goal is that of Puzznic, to move bricks about the level in order to destroy all bricks.
It's a fairly simple game, it could use more levels, which the author hopes the community will help create.

| [WIZ] Wiz-Mancala: A Mancala Game V1.1.1 For Wiz |
|
|
submitted by zx-81 @ (21:40) 02 Nov 2009 |
|
Hi All,
Mancala is a board game familly, originated in East Africa. The word "Mancala"
came from arabic word "naqalah" that means literaly "To move".
Dingux-Mancala is the "Awari" variant, and even if the rule of this game is simple,
the complexity can be compared to chess Game.
The AI is based on the source code of H. Huseby & G.T. Lines, for their
implementation of the classical Minimax algorithm.
How to use it ? Everything is in the README.txt file.
Sources are included, and this package is under the GNU public license,
read COPYING.txt file for more information about it.
How to play ? Here is the rules available from awari.cs.vu.nl :
Awari is played on a board where each player owns 6 pits. In the initial
position, all pits are filled with four stones, thus the initial position has
48 stones.
The player to move chooses one of its own, nonempty pits and removes all
stones from the pit. The player then sows the stones, counterclockwise, over
the remaining pits.
If the last stone is sown into an enemy pit that contains 2 or 3 stones
after sowing, the stones are captured.
In this case, if the second last pit is also an enemy pit that contains 2 or
3 stones, they are captured as well, and this process is repeated clockwise,
until the own pit, or an enemy pit containing less than 2 or more than 3
stones is reached.
The player who captures most stones, wins the game. The game end when a
player cannot move, however, to avoid such a situation early in the game, it
is not allowed to do a move that leaves the opponent without countermove,
unless all moves eradicate the opponent.
A GP2X-F100 version is also available ...
you can find it here
Enjoy,
Zx
A bug has been fixed in human vs human mode (wiz freeze at the end of the game)
You can find the new version (v1.1.2) on my blog |
