genesis4iphone is next up

Posted by sheep on Wednesday Sep 30, 2009 Under All, Development

I have started working on an update to genesis4iphone. If all goes well, this new update will get an increase in performance from the use of the faster assembly CPU emulation cores. This is similar to what I have done with snes4iphone recently. This ties in to my previous blog post about iPhone ARM assembly and R9, as I must take special care of this register to get things up and running. So it might take a bit longer than I’d like, but the update will be worth it.

When released it will have all the additions and bug fixes of gpSPhone and snes4iphone. My concern is the report of a crash happening on gpSPhone by early adopters of the 3.1 firmware on first-gen iPhones. Until I upgrade to firmware version 3.1 I am unable to fix this bug, unless someone is kind enough to send me the syslogd output of the crash. There’s a chance this 3.1 firmware bug make make it’s way into the next genesis4iphone update if not fixed in time.

There are lots of things on my todo list, but this is nearing release. More of what I have in store to be said shortly.

Thanks!
