Release notes
v1.0.3 · PSPSIM v1.0.3 · Sep 15, 2006
Months and months have rolled by and at last, we have an update for another Zx-81 emulator. The good homebrew developer recently updated his SamCoupé Emulator for the PSP, PSPSIM, to version 1.0.3. In case you're memory banks ain't giving you a clear picture of this one, the last update was dished out by Zx last May and from then on, it has remain silent.
But now, it is roaring back with a vengeance thanks to Zx, with the help of Mr Nick666 in the graphics and settings files department. Just to give you some info on what a SAM Coupe home PC is, the product was released some time in 1989. If it's the first time you're hearing about it, that's not surprising. Apparently, it flopped in the market and the company that made them, Miles Gordon Technology went bankrupt. Anyhoo, a SAM Coupe home PC was capable of playing early version of Lemmings, Prince of Persia, and Klax. It was an 8-bit computer which was like the thing of the future at that time.
Shifting our focus back at Zx-81's creation, here is the changelog for v1.0.3.
- Icons and background images designed by Mr Nick666
- Emulator menus reorganisation (new menu for settings)
- The percent of battery left is now displayed in the emulator window
- Add a watchdog to automatically return to the emulator menu when the battery is very low (< 5%)
- New feature to save and load a distinct setting file for each games
- Add keyboard change skin option (you can add your own virtual keyboard images in the graphics directory).
- Delete files option (in the file selector)
- Screenshots are now saved in PNG format instead of BMP
There's also a readme.txt that comes with the file so be sure to check it out and really absorb it so as to maximize the capabilities of the emulator. As always, you could dish out your opinions, reactions, and other thoughts in our comments section.
