Dear all,
For those who love arcade emulation on DS, here is the new version of AemioDA, an Atari Vector emulator ^^
You can now play Asteroid, Tempest, Gravitar, and so on with your DS !
Of course, you need to find mame compatible roms to use this emulator.
Here is the homepage of AemioDA : http://www.portabledev.com/pages/ds/jeuxdev.-perso/aemioda.php
And here is a direct download link : http://www.portabledev.com/modules/download_gallery/dlc.php?file=420&id=1268647107
Enjoy !

Thanks alekmaul, it's great that Tempest has gotten a huge speed increase, and I love that you also added support for Black Widow and Space Duel, my other two favorite vector arcade games :D
I have a few suggestions/bugs-to-report if you work on a new version of this emulator:
- BattleZone and Black Widow should have the option of controlling with both the D-Pad and XBYA to act as dual joysticks (with R and L triggers as fire in BattleZone)
- Would you consider having an option to toggle off the background image and just have the games on a black screen? (I'm talking about the gray-ish arcade monitor picture backdrop, not the backdrop in Asteroids Deluxe)
- The controls in Tempest seem to be 'backwards' from how the dial on the arcade machine would control things...in the level select and on the High Score name input screen, pressing Left on the D-Pad moves the selection right and vice-versa...the movement of the player's Claw around the Tempest Web also 'feels' wrong and backwards.

what mame rom set version are you using? none of the files in your "readme" match the current mame rom set. you have files listed that do not exist in the .zips and files listed which are only found in other zips. as a result the program fails with missing files and crc errors. this is the same problem the last revision of your emulator had. the emu should be updated to the current mame set so users do not have to manually build compatible zip files.
Asteroids (rev 2) : (from your readme)
file asteroid.zip with the following files
035145.02 with CRC 0cc75459
035144.02 with CRC 096ed35c
035143.02 with CRC 312caa02
035127.02 with CRC 8b71fd9e
asteroid.zip contains:
034602-01.c8
035127-02.np3
035143-02.j2
035144-04e.h2
035145-04e.ef2

another world:
you're right.
I'm stupid to not check new romset, i will update the emulator with new romset soon.
but i think it's ok with tempest, space duel, gravitar and all others. The pb is only with invader games.
JLSoft:
ok, i will add options to remove background.
i will check to add dual joystick support, nice idea.
i know there is a pb why tempest menu, but i don't know why. During game, it seems ok ... certainly a new pb with my pokey emulation.

alekmaul, would the new POKEY emulation that you used in this version speed up PokeyDS at all? :)

Some rom zip files have only modified files from the original one.
So I had to rebuild almost all zip files.
The pad controller is mistakenly detected.

Sorry i don't understand, could you clarify your request ?
#173051 - darky_mtp - Wed Mar 17, 2010 9:48 pm
Sorry for non french guys, my english skills are far from perfect :-/
En gros je disais que certains zip ne contenaient que des fichiers ? ajouter ? une archive de base. Asteroid.zip contient par exemple une vingtaine de fichier et asteroid2.zip n'en contient que deux, qui sont des fichiers modifi?s par rapport au premier. Pour rendre fonctionnelles toutes les versions des roms, j'ai donc reconstruit les zip en ajoutant tous les fichiers de asteroid.zip dans asteroid2.zip.
De plus comme ?a a ?t? signal?, les fichiers attendus et le readme ne sont pas en accord avec la r?alit? des archives trouvables un peu partout.
J'ai proc?d? par t?tonnement pendant 2h pour arriver ? faire un pack complet :)
If it's forbiden to post in french, I will delete this message and send it by private message.
