Emulation speed tricks
If a game runs too slow try this:
- Free as much memory as you can on PPC device
- Increase screen refresh rate in the Video options menu
- Try disabling Z80 emulation (some games *require* Z80 emulation to run and hang if Z80 is disabled. If your cart doesn't hangs with Z80 disabled you should see a great speed improvement
Installation instructions:
Just connect your CE device to the desktop PC and copy the pocketgenesis.exe file to your device. PocketGenesis for IPAQ requires GAPI library from Microsoft to work. You can download the library from www.pocketpc.com.
Copy the required GX.DLL into the "Windows" directory of your Pocket PC. Roms should be placed in My documents folder.
