Homebrew developer Zx-81 has released an update to his Amstrad CPC emulator for the PSP. PSPCAP32 is a port of Ulrich Doewich’s Caprice32 emulator, originally written for Windows and Unix.

Version 1.3.4 includes numerous speed optimizations and bug fixes. The full changelog is detailed below.

What’s new in version 1.3.4:

- Many optimizations to speed up the emulation, frame rate is now 49 fps at 222Mhz in ultra mode, on CPC startup window. Main modifications :

. Z-80 part as been rewritten using several hints such as explicit jump tables for instructions decode
. CRT and sound part has been optimized

- Auto-fire mode, press RTrigger+X to switch it on/off (useful for games such as defend or die !)
- Add new hotkeys to setup auto fire speed
- Bug fix in the low battery watchdog
- RTrigger/LTrigger keys can be used in the keyboard settings menu to navigate between Normal, LTrigger and RTrigger compose mapping.
- New “Command” feature in the emulator menu:
. You have now to choose the command you want to run using arrows.
- Default Hotkeys can now be set in the keyboard mapping menu (useful to add hotkeys on existing/previous keyboard files)
- Remove dead code (such as printer, breakpoint, trace support etc …)
- Bug fix such as : while saving state using hotkey in ultra-mode, thumb image wasn’t properly saved
