It seems faster than version 0.7. I can select sound to 44MHz and the speed is still acceptable when playing NES at 1x. But if I use "smooth" option - fast, and full screen, the speed is not good enough. I think the "smooth" option will slow the speed, right? I want to use full screen, without smooth. But I only get a blank screen. I have to choose one of the smooth option to use full screen mode. The video driver seems not stable. I got crash several times when switch from 1x to full screen or from using smooth option to without it. Thanks for this great program. I'm wait for the version 1.0  the complete one~~~~And hope the UDMH function can be build in. I can not run any game without UDMH, even I have about 18 MB free memory. Anyone can tell me why? |

First a congrats on LJP. Amazing to see a multiplatform emulator on the humble Palm. I'm running a T2 with UDMH and it works very well. I've not tried the smoothing option since I figure this will be a performance hit, plus I can live with the display as it is NES/GBA run great, Genesis and SNES run as well as I'd expect on the humble T2, but there does seem to be an issue (and maybe this is UDMH) with memory not being freed up after running a game. For example if I run NES Super Mario Bros 1, when I return to the launcher I've lost 4MB of free ram. I've seen it reported elsewhere, but I also can't run two SNES or Genesis games after each other. You get a PNO error before getting dropped back to the launcher. Still, I can live with it, a reset cures all and this is Beta software anyway Keep up the good work, can't wait to see the Palm version of ZQuake either Do you ever sleep Yoyo? Sol |

First: as yoyo said the "full without smoothing" video mode is out in this release (don't ask me why). Second: you have 18MB of free storage memory which is different from dynamic memory, which's what LJP uses. You can't run anything without UDHM because the T|T2 only has 700k or so of dynamic memory... (UDMH makes the programs use the storage memory as if it were dynamic) |

Thanks for the explanation. Clear~~~
I've tried GB/GBC roms and SNES roms also.
For the GB/GBC, small roms very very good. FPS set to 1. but bigger roms, for example, "metalgear" and "Toki Tori", not smooth enough. FPS set to 3 or 4 is accepted.
For SNES, I was so happy to see the Final Fantasy III appeared~~~~~and as we all know...speed not good enough, so I decide not to play the SNES on my poor T|T 2.
