News/release from Nherve:
I've here a new pad plugin I wrote. It's MegaPad and it uses SDL. No worry, the latest actual version of the SDL (1.2.12) is provided.
This plugin offers, as LilyPad, a complete pad support, many possibilities, but is much simpler than LilyPad.
First place SDL.dll in the root PCSX2 folder (not the plugins folder), else the plugin won't start.
1. Mapping and config
After having selected MegaPad in the Pad plugins list and launched its GUI by clicking the
Config button, you must configure it. You can select the Pad 1 or the Pad 2 with the
buttons in the top-left corner of the window. For mapping press any of the 20 buttons.
The pressed button will become grayed. Then you can do various things :
a. Keyboard
For the buttons press a key and the selected button will be bound to the pressed key. Pressing
Escape or Backspace allows you to delete a value. For the axes press any key with old versions, or click right button whth new versions, and the selected
axis will be bound to the mouse. Note that if the axes of the 2 players are bound to the mouse,
they will move simultaneously.
b. Joystick
For the buttons press a button, a POV hat in the wanted direction or move an axis in the wanted
direction and it will be bound to the selected button. Note that if you bind an axis to a
pressure-sensitive button*, the pressure will match the value of the axis. Try this feature in
games which need pressure sensitive buttons. For the axes move an axis and it will be bound to
the selected axis. Warning : the GUI has a little difficulty to detect the moves of the vertical
(y) axes, but there is no problem in the games.
c. Misc
There are 4 general options under the mapping buttons.
1. Axis sensitivity : can be 3 values (affect the GUI as the games). This is the sensitivity of the
plugin to axis moves.
-Very sensible : for precision games or low-sensibility axes.
-Normal : default, I recommend you to use it.
-Low sensibility : use it if your axes are very sensible.
2. Enable logging : This enables a pad log stored in logs\megapad_log.txt, which can be used only for
debugging purposes. As mentionned, this logging makes the emu slower.
3. Always show cursor : Use it with ZeroGS if you use the mouse, to see where is the cursor.
4. Low-visibility cross cursor : The arrow cursor is replaced by a low-visibility cross cursor.
Use it if you don't want to see the arrow cursor.
Then click OK.
2. Emu
I think I don't need to detail how to use the keyboard or the joysticks, but I will tell you how does
the mouse support work.
Press the left button for left axis, the right button for right axis. When you release a button, the
corresponding axis will be "centered". When you press a button the cursor is automatically centered.
Move it as an analog axis. When a button is pressed the cursor cannot get out the GS window. The
mouse support has been seriously improved in the new version, axis positions are calculated from
the size of the GS window, so it works better than PadWinKeyb mouse support.
If you encounter any bug using this plugin tell it to me.
Version 1.3.3
The bug on first launch was because PCSX2 does not call PADinit on first launch ("pcsx2 needs to be configured" message), and SDL init is in PADinit. So if PADinit hasn't been called by PCSX2 it is called by the GUI. So the bug that version 1.3.2 was supposed to fix is really fixed here.

Blazing Angels 2 and Toy Home are the two demos posted on the US PlayStation 3 Store this week, giving you a chance to finally fix that pesky old World War II's little red wagon, and then drive little red wagons around for a bit.
Blazing Angels: Secret Missions of World War II sees players return to the skies above everyone's favourite Second World War and introduces a new progression system and an in-cockpit view among other tweaks and changes.
These weren't enough to get Eurogamer's Rob Fahey terribly excited during his review of the Xbox 360 version, but with the benefit of the demo you won't have to rely on what that old maniac says to inform your purchase decision ahead of the 23rd November PS3 release date. Providing you've got 1GB of hard disk space free.
Toy Home, meanwhile, is a Game Republic-authored racing game where you traverse eight racetracks spread around a house and filled with obstacles. It's got 8-player multiplay but no giant crabs of which we're aware.
Elsewhere on the US PSN shop this week there are loads of trailers - including some for Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction, PAIN, Time Crisis 4, Burnout Paradise and Uncharted, and some more Uncharted wallpapers.

Sony has smothered the PlayStation Store in Thursday, covering it in new content.
Well, we say new, but we're not sure how happy you will be with your solo demo of Stranglehold. A rumour was floating around that Haze was going to join it, but it seems to have been little more than gossip.
Still, those of you with a PlayStation Eye can grab the new Mesmerize visualisation thing. It costs GBP 1.99 and lets you wave your limbs about to effect in-game vistas, like making spring to life or twin neon trails twist about.
MotorStorm has got more new bits and bobs, too - this time a fancy Big I Bunny and Numskull livery pack for GBP 1.49. Dress-up for cars and motorbikes and buggy things, then.
Elsewhere there are videos for the excellent and freshly reviewed Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, Everyday Shooter and Blazing Angels 2. Oh, and a TV commercial as well as a trailer for new Pixar film Wall-E.

The release of the Sega Saturn emulator for the PSP yesterday brought a lot of discussion as to whether Saturn emulation was possible at a decent speed etc.
But on the 6th page of the discussion about the emulator, Notaz the coder behind the port of Picodrive the Megadrive and Sega CD emulator for the GP2X replied to a post by dgbbad :

Notaz then posted this
Oh really? 
and this screenshot:
Im sure you are as excited as me about this development and especially as Sega CD Emulation is playable on the GP2X

Skeezix let me know on IRC about a new version of his excellent Atari ST Emulator for the PSP, heres the release details:
Get CaSTaway build 006 here:
http://www.codejedi.com/shadowplan/castaway.html
I've proven it to work on my PSP Slim; I hope it still works on the Fat.
Please let me know if..
- it works on your Slim
- it works on your Fat with firmware 3.6 or later
- it works on your Fat with firmware earlier than 3.6
- it works on your Fat with 1.5
I am not including a kxploited or firmware-1.0 build in this release, in hopes this new Slim-happy one works on them all.. but we'll have to find out, and I'll adjust my releases as needed. (ie: If I need to include 2 or 3 or 4 builds for different firmwares, I will.)
This release freshens up the emu to my latest codebase and fixes a number of minor issues both in the emu and in the interface, as well as adding some goofy UI effects.
jeff
Edit: Known to work on Fat with 3.52 and 3.71, as well as Slim.

A few of our readers were scoffing at the idea of a $399 40GB PS3. "What's the big deal," you said. This: according to Sony's CEO, Sir Howard Stringer, they've more than doubled sales in the US in the weeks since its launch. "It's the breakthrough we've been waiting for," said Stringer, "We've been holding our breath. Finally, the turning point has been passed." Prior to the October 18th price cut, Sony was selling just 30k to 40k consoles per week. Sales rose to 75,000 in the week ending October 29 rising to 100,000 the following week. Stringer also credits Wii shortages for helping the boost. Andrew House, Sony's chief marketing officer even takes a jab at HD DVD saying, "It puts us vastly ahead of where the other format is going to be in terms of an installed base in people's homes by the end of this holiday season." Perhaps, but we don't expect the boys at Microsoft, Nintendo, and Toshiba to just roll over and let this progress continue unabated now, do we?

Two Syracuse teenagers are facing felony charges after Syracuse police said the pair beat a man Tuesday at The Galleries in Syracuse while trying to take a hand-held game console from him.
Sharquan Edwards, 16, of 429 Wilkinson St., and Dannell Williams, 16, of 238 Primrose Ave., were both charged with two counts of felony robbery and a misdemeanor count of assault.
Joseph Morales, 25, told police he was at The Galleries at 8:50 a.m. waiting to go to the library and watching a movie on his PSP game console. As he was watching the movie, he was approached by Edwards and Williams, who he said he did not know, police said.
Williams demanded the PSP and grabbed it, Morales said. Morales held on and the two men began beating him to the floor, Morales said.
A witness walked into The Galleries about 9 a.m. and saw the two men hitting and kicking Morales, who was in a ball on the floor, police said. The witness yelled at the men to stop and both men stopped, the witness said. Then, the witness said, Williams kicked Morales in the head. Then both left the building, police said.
Williams was stopped by security outside The Galleries and Edwards was stopped riding a bicycle in the 100 block of Washington Street, police said.

Sony said that it has sold more than 100,000 PS3 consoles in the week ending November 11, an increase of 250 to 300 per cent from the average weekly sales before the price drop.
"It's the breakthrough we've been anticipating," Sony chairman and CEO Howard Stringer told The Associated Press. "We've been holding our breath."
"Obviously, we've taken so much heat over the year on PS3. Finally, the turning point has been passed," he said.
