I'm a Beta Tester for this program, we usually test around two versions ahead, last version I tested was 0.12.0 with the Tinsel Engine plug in which will be officially released with Version 0.13.0. For those of you out there, 0.13.0 adds support for the 1995 original Discworld Game.

Can't wait to try out the new fixes to the timer code for COMI. Any chance of a 300Mhz port for the PSP coming out?

(I know this is a sore point for the PSP scumm devs)

I'll try the vanilla 133Mhz as always and report any bugs with the 133Mhz version. I kind of like the 300Mhz versions just to be impressed by what the PSP can do more then anything.
