PSPInt 1.1.0

1. INTRODUCTION
------------

Jzintv is an emulator of the Intellivision videogame system
running on many systems such as Linux, Unix, Windows and MacOS.
See http://spatula-city.org/~im14u2c/intv/ for further information.

PSPInt is a port on PSP of the version 20051204 of Jzintv.

First, i would like to thanks DrNicket, for his help and support.
Without him, this port would never have been what it is today.

Special thanks to Danzel and Jeff Chen for their virtual keyboard,
and to all PSPSDK developers.

This package is under GPL Copyright, read COPYING file for
more information about it.


2. INSTALLATION
------------

Unzip the zip file, and copy the content of the directory fw3x
on the psp/game or psp/game3xx directory (depending on your firmware).

Put your rom image files on "roms" sub-directory.

It has been developed on linux for custom Firmware 3.40-OE.

4. LOADING INTELLIVISION ROM FILES
------------

If you want to load rom image in your emulator, you have to put your rom file
(with .zip, .rom, .int, .itv or .bin file extension) on your PSP memory stick
in the 'rom' directory.

Then, while inside Jzintv emulator, just press SELECT to enter in
the emulator main menu, and then using the file selector choose one
rom file to load in your emulator.

Back to the emulator window, the rom should stard automatically.

5. LOADING KEY MAPPING FILES
------------

For given games, the default keyboard mapping between PSP Keys and
Intellivision keys, is not suitable, and the game can't be played on Jzintv.

To overcome the issue, you can write your own mapping file. Using notepad for
example you can edit a file with the .kbd extension and put it in the kbd
directory.

For the exact syntax of those mapping files, have a look on sample files already
presents in the kbd directory (default.kbd etc ...).

After writing such keyboard mapping file, you can load them using the main menu
inside the emulator.

If the keyboard filename is the same as the rom filename (.zip etc ...)
then when you load this rom, the corresponding keyboard file is automatically
loaded !

You can now use the Keyboard menu and edit, load and save your
keyboard mapping files inside the emulator. The Save option save the .kbd
file in the kbd directory using the "Game Name" as filename. The game name
is displayed on the right corner in the emulator menu.

6. COMPILATION
------------

It has been developed under Linux using gcc with PSPSDK.
To rebuild the homebrew run the Makefile in the src archive.

    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tots?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Gonna check out the new Garfield looks like garbage
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty didn't you see the new garfield?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ah it's all animated I was hoping for some live action
