Dec 6, 2010 [gpSP for HBL build 1] compatible with Half Byte Loader: PSP Homebrew Application

Hey guys, good news! Well good news to Half Byte Loader users. Things are looking up. HBL developer frillybob released new build of the cool Gameboy Advance emulator 'gpSP for HBL build 1' available to download now. It is compatible with  6.20 to 6.31 half byte loader. There are amazing new improvements in the new build which is more stable and more efficient to run GBA games. So, why don't you give it a try?

 ......................................................

Change log:

• Speed boost for 6.20/6.30/6.31 users   
• PRX in place for when TN-HEN gets released (not done of course)
• Less crashes with saving games (specifically Mario Party Advance, that’s what made me code this better for HBL)
• Added special HBL font (not in use, going to be later)
• To make some improvements I edited the save game feature to only expect so much ram by the PSP (the version is the 64mb version and obviously without kernal access you can’t use that)
