PPSSPP Symbian Port

[xsacha]

Right now it can run a few with no laggs (like Puzzle Bobble). And that's just interpreter.

The problem is there's no arm jit. It's not related to Symbian platform - it's needed for all other mobile platforms too. This is the goal of v0.6.

I mean 3D or more quality game ))
Whether the application will use GPU or is it already uses?

Yes, it uses GPU right now. OpenGL ES 2.0. Without it, you would get 0-1 FPS. This is the reason S60v5 won't work.

3D games will take a bit. Need to get jit working to give enough speed.

I have added native file dialog to latest git. So now you can use any drive

Speed is coming very soon! JIT is in progress.

Yeah the back button appears when you select a drive. It's just the native file selection dialog.

I have recently ported PPSSPP to Symbian. The frontend uses Qt and wraps around the existing GLES2 UI.

If you would like to try out a preliminary build, just message me.

If you have any feature requests or bug reports, please post them here.

Port details:
Works on: Nokia N8, C7, E6, E7, X7, 700, 701, 808 (any Symbian device that supports GL ES 2.0).
Developed on: Nokia N8, Nokia 808.

Screenshots:

Hello, I am from China, I like this software.
I made a icon for Belle, and hope that you can use it.
   
   
Please forgive my poor English.
Thank you

[xsacha]

Thanks for the icon.
Pushing to master: https://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp/pull/466

First of all I want to thank you for your efforts Xsacha
I installed the version you offer here but I stumbled upon a bug.
I have a E7 with Symbian Belle (111.030.0609)installed and as you can see in the attachment the bottom of the main menu gets cut. If i start puzzle bobble its not an issue.

And there is another thing I wanted to ask:
How hard is it to port an emulator that is completely written in QT and QML to symbian? (maybe a little bit offtopic question)

Ah, thanks for the bug report. It's quite odd this happens when the screen should be the same as my N8 and 808. I will try to check out what is happening there. I am using 111.040.1511.

If the emulator is already written in Qt/QML, it would require no effort to port that part of the emulator. The problem is mostly with the code that emulates the other arch (the interpreter and the JIT) as those usually require some low-level features that Symbian may not have. That's why the JIT isn't working yet, for example.
