Zx-81 has been very, very, very busy lately. In the span of a very few days, he's released the latest versions of PSPMSX, PSP2600, and PSPAtari in our forums, and now he's back for more with PSPCAP32 v1.1.5. And not a moment too soon, because the last version, PSPCAP v1.1.4, was released back in November. Here's the full changelog for v1.1.5, but all the important installation and other stuff is in the Readme, so don't forget to read that after reading this.

• Save state files are now saved using gzip compression (with SNZ as file extention). It's much faster to save or load states now. You can use gzip or 7-zip to convert old SNA to SNZ. SNA file format is still supported for loading, so you convert your previous saved files inside the emulator.
• A new graphical engine with new smoother render modes! It uses now the PSP GU for rendering, it does not run faster, but it's a lot smoother! Old "soft" render modes are still available, because there are a bit faster.
• Editor's note: Zx-81 must be really getting into that PSP GU lately...
• Save state dates are displayed in the emulator window (it's now easier to identify and to load the right save state slot)
• Sound is now played at 44Khz (instead of 48Khz)
• Bug fix (load default keyboard mapping on startup)
• Bug fix in Rom file requester
• Bug fix in keyboard handler

Once you've got him started, there's no stopping him, and it looks like Zx-81 is on a roll! Never disappointing the homebrew scene, the French emulation porting machine has came along to update one of his old favorites. With PSPThom being updated earlier today, Zx-81 has been working hard to bring us yet another great homebrew emulator for the PSP. PSPCAP32 is an Amstrad CPC emulator for the PSP that emulates the Amstrad CPC 8-bit home computer range (models CPC6128, CPC464, and CPC664), and it now features many new options such as the ability to save and load a distinct setting file for each games as well as other file management options.

Here's the full changelog for PSPCAP32 v1.1.3 gold edition:

• Emulator menus reorganization (new menu for settings)
• New feature to save and load a distinct setting file for each games
• Delete files option (in the file selector)
• Added speed limiter option
• Screenshots are now saved in PNG format instead of BMP

• Added help menu
  

Two binary versions (for 2.5/2.6 and 1.5 FW) and the source code have been included in the download. Have fun playing Juggernaut and other CPC classics on the go!

Zx-81 has released an updated version of his PSPCAP32 Amstrad CPC emulator for the PSP, updating it to version 1.1.2. This release is a lot similar to the updates in PSPAtari v1.0.4, with graphical improvements to the GUI provided by Shadow, with a couple of bug fixes and the addition of sleep mode support. Here's the full changelog:

- Added icons and background designed by Shadow !
- Modified the UI to be able to use custom background images (transparency)
- Sleep mode is now working (but only when you're in the emulator window)
- Bug fix in danzeff keyboard (wrong key mapping)

Now, with the danzeff keyboard mapping bug fixed, you can enjoy CPC emulation perfection, and leave your PSP in PSPCAP32 when it's in sleep mode! Just remember to only use sleep mode when you are in the emulator window! Otherwise you may awaken your PSP to find that it has crashed.

PSPCAP32 comes packaged in a zip archive containing both 1.0 and 1.5 binary versions as well as the source code and keyboard files.

Zx-81 from our forums has proved today that he can juggle two projects at once by releasing another version of his PSPCAP32 Amstrad CPC emulator for the PSP, bringing it up to v1.1.1 as well as working on his amazing PSPVBA GameBoy Advance Emulator. If you thought that v1.1.0 was the last you'd hear of this emulator for the PSP, you obviously don't know Zx. This emulator is back with a vengeance, boasting a huge speed improvement and better sound quality to list a few. Here's the full changelog:

- New keyboard files from Loic Daneels (more than 470 games !)
- Improve the sound, it's now much more better !
- The percent of battery left is now displayed in the emulator window
- Add a watchdog to automatreturn to the emulator menu when the battery is very low (< 5%)
- Add option to modify the "sound tick average" value (usefull to avoid sound distortion on many games)
- Enter directly in the emulator menu on startup (instead of the CPC screen)
- Bug fix in smooth image algorithm (resulting in wrong color display)
- Other bug fix (sdl semaphore) and code cleaning

You know the drill, and if you don't - where have you been this year? As with all of Zx's releases the zip comes packaged with 2 binary versions (1.5 and 1.0 eboots) as well as the source code.

If you've enjoyed the PSPCAP32: Amstrad CPC Emulator for PSP v1.1.0 that was released by zx-81 last June 20, 2006 here at QJ, then you surely are going to love this. He has recently announced that Loic Daneels has updated his keyboard files pack for the PSPCAP32. You now have mapping for over 470 CPC games from the 380 you previously had.

PSPCAP32 was originally called as Caprice32, which imitates the CPC464 (which was designed to take Commodore 64 and Sinclair ZX Spectrum head on), CPC664 (with a built-in cassette tape deck), and CPC6128 (with a floppy disk drive) models to a tee.
