Stuff I'm currently working on ...

I've been busy internally at RIM on BB10 but have recently managed to look at the emulators again to see if they work on BB10.  So the short term plan is to get them working on BB10,  re-build PB 2.x flavours and look at some other emulators that would be fun to play.

UAE Amiga Emulator   -  WIP

github.com/trevornunes/uaesdl

Okay got a basic virtual joystick working in SDL library which is needed to make this emulator any kind of use. I need to work on performance as the emulator is sometimes fast and other times slow it varies depending on game/demo.  I also cannot get kickstarts 1.3 and greater working for whatever reason.  So at the moment it's a reasonable A500  ECS with 68020/68882 and fast ram emulator.  There is a mouse and 2 buttons ( not visibly mapped ) working alongside the joystick. Missing a dialog to choose .adf files at the moment it's loading based on settings in the uaecfg file.




Handy - Atari Lynx emulator  ( working )

 github.com/trevornunes/Handy

This works great with rom cycling I haven't played with it much to be honest and it doesn't have a great game selection but it's another emulator in the bag for Blackberry.

SMS Plus - Sega Master System / Game Gear emulator  ( working )

github.com/trevornunes/smsplus

SMS Plus ported and code dumped into github. This is a Sega Master System / GameGear emulator and it works great but currently only loads a fixed path misc/roms/sms/game.sms  , I will need to put in a ROM selector at some point. So for now it's just misc/roms/sms/game.sms   Alex kid fans rejoice.

Another developer has ported this emulator with dialog support that might be a better choice, it's on crackberry forums in the emulator section.
