A new version of ParaJVE - Parabellums Vectrex Emulator has been released. ParaJVE is written in Java 5.0. Thanks to the author for the message.
Zitat: The good news is that the packaging embeds the roms and overlays, so no extra download is needed to install the emulator. It should be also easier to install since no manual edition of the launch scripts is needed anymore (well, in most situations).
I also added a few goodies that were not planned initially : a screenshot fonctionality (available only when the emulator is paused), and a menu item that checks online if a new version is available.
As said in the previous post, there are different packagings for different operating systems :
* Windows
* Linux i586 (generic linux bundle)
* Linux for AMD64 (linux bundle optimised for AMD64)
As you can see, no release is available for the Mac plateform, due to the general lack of support. Maybe I´ll build one eventually, if I have more time to investigate this OS.
The default keymapping is :
* Joystick buttons 1 to 4 : Keys "1" to "4"
* Joystick axis : direction keys
* Pause = "ENTER"
* Hide menu = "F1"
* Exit = "ESCAPE"
It´s likely that the first thing you may want to do is redefine this mapping. You can easily do that through the emulator´s menu.
Enjoy!
