Hi GBAlist! Has anyone made tests on the speed of the LZ77 Bios decompression funcions? How do they compare with CpuSet and FastCpuSet? and DMA Transfer? All...

Hi there, Here at the univ we're having a little project on the gba: we're trying to connect one to an FPGA. To use the FPGA as a 'living cartridge'. (kinda...

Sure, gcc and most other compilers use software floating point operations if you dont have the hardware (well you have to tell the compiler which way to do...
Hi all, Thanks for your comments, but please assume that I DO want to use floating point operations and not fixed point. There are only two operations that I'm...
Hi, I've been trying to get a C++ project to compile using Devkit Advance (release 5 beta 3) ideally along with Jeff's Crt0 and LnkScript (crtls v1.28). Which...
I don't see the reason for using any floating point arithmetics if that's all you want to do. To begin with you'll only have integer results unless you also...

Hi gbadev forum, Rather than re-invent the wheel trying to write an ARM random number gernerator function, i thought i'd ask if anyone has done this before or...
Do bear in mind that if you test the speed of the BIOS functions on an emulator the result will not necessarily be indicative of what happens on real hardware....
Ok, testing has revealed that the bios function is a good 10 times faster than the 2.30 function (I didn't measure it precisely - all I need to know is that...
