I didn't test it a lot. I don't have any CD rom, so I cannot say if it works.

Feedback and advices are welcome. Enjoy!

I will check this out tonight, thanks!

Great news Ker!

I made a quick test, I tried some jap and USA games and they work pretty well (with the exception of Air Zonk which has flickering issues)...
from this my first quick test I have a suggestion and, probably, I found a "bug":
- In the emu settings there are three rendering options: fast max, fast, fit. Maybe it will be better to rename them as follows: fast (stretched), fast (1:1), fit (stretched)... and to put as default fast (1:1) and not fast (stretched).
- I activated the v-sync (on) in the emu settings, but it seems to be not operative.

PS: I had no time to try the CD emulation, I will test it as soon as possible...

I've just look at code. VSync function is empty 

I think this will be a nice emulator to learn something 

the system finally has its own TG16 emulator once again thank you!

Damn, pc engine emus and vsync aren't good friends :p
thanks your work Ker

Someone need to work on that vsync problem wich plague temper as well

Is this vsync problem just on gcw version? Temper was made for GPH handhelds and was one of best emu's on the GP2X.

I tested the CD emulation, but without success (at least for now)...
I put the syscard.pce in the $HOME/.hugo/bios folder and after I tried to load a PCE CD image, but the result was: "Can't load file!"
Below the tries which I made:
- I tried with different syscards (.pce and .bin), I used also the syscard3.pce which is available in the Zx-81 Dingux-hugo binary file;
- I tried to put the syscards files in the $HOME/.hugo/ folder;
- I tried to rename "syscard3.pce" simply "syscard.pce";
- I tried to load the CD image with the .hcd metafile or directly with the .iso file.

PS: I noticed that the CD-ROM browser doesn't save the last used ROM path (the function should be added)

Syscard files can have this names:
- syscard.pce
- syscard3.pce
- syscard30.pce
- cd-rom~1.pce

I'll try to check cdrom load myself. Thanks for your feedback!

Are save states avaliable? I will try it when I arrive home.

Yes, the save state function is available and fully operative (I tested it)...

Good improvements Ker!

The scrolling is very smoothly and the CD emulation works!
I tested a CD game without CD-DA tracks... I'm not sure, but I suppose that dingux-hugo supports only the uncompressed audio (not mp3 or ogg vorbis)

PS: I noticed that in the "Settings" sub-menu is possible to save a configuration, but it's not possible to load the saved configuration (probably the right path "$HOME/.hugo/set" was not set in the code)

thanks!  only tried a handful of games but the scrolling is a big improvement over the first release although i notice keith courage is running a little slower.  couldn't find the right balance to fix this when tweaking the settings it either went too fast or too slow

Maybe the triple buffer support could help in this case!
