New MAME4Droid Reloaded v1.1
#281165 - 04/01/12 05:05 PM


This guy is making significant improvements!

From the site...

MAME4droid Reloaded 1.1. Upgraded to MAME 0.139. Fixed/Added input mapping in MAME menu. Added correct 4/3 aspect ratio (now works MAME menu aspect ratio selector). Fixed flickering on GL mode. Improved ROM manager (still stuff pending anyway). Added emulated resolution selector to improve artwork rendering.

Plays sweet on my Galaxy Nexus!

It really is great to see a modern port available now on android, alas, I'll be sticking with 0.37b5 on my 1GHz snapdragon powered Xperia Play.
Props to David for the much used Xpectroid aswell.

Plays great on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 with the iCade, too!

I use both; the old 4All version if I want speed, the new one if I just want to see Sega sprite scaling on my phone in slow motion (for amusements sake!)

Let's see what is the limit of this build, considering, of course, the more demanding games...

Snagged the iOS Debian package and installed it for a look. Fairly impressive, but it probably needs a uml backend ARM dynamic recompiler to make anything post 1990 (and a lot of earlier stuff that's more intensive) run decently.

Still a fun diversion. Between that and the port of FBA, I can play quite a few of the classics just fine.

Hmm, speaking of FBA on the go, does the portable port of FBA for Android allow you play replay(input) files and watch them? Please let me know, because that would be really cool.

"The limit" is going to be a quickly moving target, what with the Qualcomm Kraid and ARM A15 coming On a Tegra 3 I'd expect games up to at least CPS-2 to run pretty well.

What are those? Are those the new chips that will be in upcoming Android phones? Or are those actual protable devices coming out?

New CPUs in upcoming Android devices. The Krait (my Metroid-colored goggles made me misspell it) will probably first show up in the "HTC One" family of phones. For US peeps, the first one will probably be the just-announced "HTC EVO 4G LTE" on Sprint.

CPS-2 runs fine on an existing iPhone 4S (just tested it here-- 100% with occasional instant hiccups at 95% that don't seem to actually affect gameplay on MAME, steady 100% on FBA), so I'd say you should be able to aim a little higher than that. Maybe even GX.

At least on the iOS port, it seems to come down to how friendly the architecture is to the platform. Twin 16 has one more 68000 than CPS-2 and runs notably worse (Gradius 2 autoframeskips itself to 5 pretty quickly on MAME, but seems to be fine on FBA-- less accurate but better optimized 68000 emulator?)

Honestly, it's going to be interesting to see what the upper bounds of this will be in a few years, but it may have unfortunate side effects in terms of even cheaper, easier to reproduce multibootleg boards.

Great, I'm due for an upgrade. Kinda wanted a Tegra 3 tho. Hmm.

Well, it's moot, since LTE isn't out by me yet. Extra horsepower would be cool though.

If it's compatability with games/apps you're worried about, check out the work by @chainfire. I have one of his apps that works like the 3dfx wrappers of old (for those who didn't have a voodoo card)... only better



Just broke my personal record for number of consecutive days without dying!
