Hi
Does anyone know of a text only adventure game for the MDA Vario ?
Also I cant sync it with my pc so it will have to be in the format I can just extract on the MDA.
Many thanks for your help
Steve
get pocketDOS and some old text based pc games like Zork
Cool
But I need a .cab version ....
Any ideas ? Links ?
Thanks
Steve
Try NetHack for PocketPC
Try nethack if you remember this one. It's a text adventure game.

There's a cab install there.
Here's the file anyway...
Sorry
Hi
Im asking a big favour
Could someone please download the .cab file and post it on here as the firewall is blocking me from downloading it from any of those mirror sites at work.
Please please please ,,, pretty please ....
Thanks all
Steve

Steve

Thanks
That game is cool
But do you know of any text only games in .cab format ?
Many thanks
Steve
Anybody
Anybody ??
Your best bet is to download an Infocom games interpreter (called a "Z-Machine", google it) and the relevant gamefiles. Then it's a matter of tastes, but you probably want to start with "Wishbringer".
Request
Could you please add the .cab files onto here ?
Thank you very much for your help
Steve
Here it is..emulator (copy it to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs) and a game file (Zork I) which you can place in My Docs or in some subfolder of MyDoc.
Here you can find out more about txt based games and download some more Zork games.

Guys and gals, don’t forget to check out my brand new, MS-DOS / x86 emulation-related article at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1276884
(Sorry for flooding – IMHO, this article certainly deserves attention because it answers ALL the questions a Windows Mobile user may want to EVER ask about emulating MS-DOS. Make sure you read it!)

Hi everybody. When I write SMS with my girlfriend I sometimes mess with the text. For example I write the text down on a paper and writh it backwards like:
Hi sweetheart. I just wanted to say that I stay here one more day. I love you --->
ouy evol I. yad erom eno ereh yats I taht yas ot detnaw tsuj I. traehteews ih.
So that she has to read it from the end.
Unfortunatly I am not a programmer. Could anybody write a tool that can mirro an sms text please. Then it would be easier. No need of paper anylonger.
And if anybody else has more funny ideas it could end up in a fun sms tool.
Thanks alot.
Greets Alex
oh yeah great fun. I suggest you ask your girlfriend to look at the phone facing a mirror and read the text from the mirror image. Just joking no offince There are serious issues which need to be resolved with XDA2 SMS before we can make fun out of it.
Kufi, have you really thinked on what you said ? did you try the mirror ? was the same effect ?
Alex, if i have some time, i'll write a simple app to do it in the next days and post it here
regards
Hey Hbatista! Sounds great!
Thank you very much!
@ kufi if you turn your display off you get a mirror
Alex
loooool guys, you are wonderful! I tried the mirror but what I saw was the ugly me..
here's your tool with source code
Glad that good humour still persists!
Here's your app. I'm including source code and a ARM cab to do the installation. You should copy the cab and dat file to your device and proceed to installation.
Hope it helps
regards!
talking about good humor..
I included in the about box a small credit to Kuffi!
Hi hbatista! Thank you very much for your cool tool.
A copy function would be cool though. Because then I could copy any text into a sms or mms using the normal tools which also stire the send messages.
And... Nice Mirror Pic Man!!
Thanks.
Alex
right away!
no problem!
here's the new version with a copy/paste menu!
Thanks Man.
Really nice one.
Alex
Now I get an error:
MirrorSms.exe
MissingMethodException
Application::Run+0xf
frmSendMirrorSms:Main+0xa
Is anything else exept the files you attached needed to run it properly?
Alex
sorry!
yep.. I only tested it on emulator, and I don't know why the opennetcf is not being correctly installed...
this new version is working...
Now another funny thing. Does anybody remeber these secred languages form childhood? We were about 5 children and we had such a language training it for weeks. At the end we were really fluent and nobody could understand us. My sister and I still use this language for fun every now and then.
Now we could transfair this to SMS.
For example: Iluvi aluvam coluvomiluving laluvateluver.
which means: I a m co mi ng la te r
I am coming later.
The rule is: After each vowel you put luv and then repeat the vowel if there are more vowels in a row like ea you take all of them and put luv there like ealuvea.
Do you like my suggestion?
Any other ideas?
Alex
lol
well, and what about random ? :lol:
the source code is there, so any other posters can change it. now i have to come back to my vehicle tracking system
Thanks anyway.
Very nice tool
Greets
Alex
phonenumber?
Do you need to type the phone number in by hand? I don't know any phonenumber nowadays ...
Copy/paste doesn't seem to work in that field

contacts integration only available at commercial release
(read this post title) :lol:
I'm just kidding.
Well, integration with contacts will be a little more difficult. There is no library to do it in the language i used.
Even the clipboard integration was more difficult than sending the sms (can u imagine ?), because compact framework does not support CE clipboard.
I'm not fluent in eC++, but maybe other posters can do it...
Although, if i have some time i will do it...

Hello hbatista,
I'm trying to find a simple programming language to program small nice functions for my Qtec. can you suggest an affordable language ?
thanks
See OpenNetCF
Hi Abalgir
Right now, the best choice would be eC++ (embedded visual c), but for someone initiating, it could be complicated. You can also choose embedded visual basic (eVB).
Although, Microsoft operating systems are migrating to "Managed code" and .net technologies. This means that you should start thinking on using .net to program the devices. In .net you can choose your favorite language, like c# or vb.net, but i prefer c#.
With .net compact framework, you can do a lot of things, but some core fiunctionalities are still not available, but you can use something like OpenNetCF (see www.opennetcf.org) to do core things like sendsms, etc
hope it helps

where can i get .cab editor? so that i can extract some files inside that cab. thx
you really would go along way searching this forum and google since piles of people ask the very same things
http://www.google.dk/search?hl=da&ie=UTF-8&q=.CAB+editor&btnG=Google-søgning
rudegar, at least point in the right direction. I think the results of your query wont get anyone near a wince cab editor.
www.ocpsoftware.com does :wink:
I'd love to hear from a freeware cab editor though (my trial is over on 1 pc . . .)
well, technically he asked for a .Cab editor not a CE .Cat Editor edsub !

Agreed, but from the context of this forum double_ofour isn't really likely to want a windows .CAB editor
Thought we were here to help Rudegar
we are here to help
but sometimes you feel that if you give a man
a fish he can eat for a day but if you teach him how to fish for himself
he can eat every day
and editing cab files have been a few times in the forum that i know
so i can do the forum search for people or i can
tell them the wonders of the search function and if they then
try it out and they get great results they can search for many other things they may like to find
if one just post questions and don?t use the search
and the people who have some info don?t see the post
before it get pushed out of the scope
then help will never arrive
which is a shame really
so my reply was not an grumpy reply even though I can see why some may have seen it as such
What the hell happening here!! well better cancel this topic. Just calm down you all. It's better to seacrh first that to post. SORRY GUYS, ill never post a topic that was already discussed.
I know sometimes it's hard to tell the tone and peoples response when it's in writing on the internet and all but I can assure you I?m perfectly calm
I wrote what I wrote to help
And I didn?t blame people for responding to my mail in the ways they did
Just tried to explain my post in the other post
And I don?t think you should avoid asking posts ever that have been asked before
If nobody did that this forum would probably be static since most questions have been discussed at out point or another
When I wrote it I was just in a bit of a hurry so I didn?t have the time to find the link
And believed that a little help was better then no help at all
Sorry If people felt that I did it in a improper way
no need to close or remove this thread in my opinion
HHHHmmmmmmmm.......... Thank You Mr.Rudegar...
is there a freeware which works like WinCE CAB Manager?
