hello!
I've just tried the car game Raging Thunder on my Universal but Im having some keyboard problem.
How do you play? When you try ith Auto Acce enable, you just have to turn left or right, I use the cursor on keyboard but I also can use the D-pad right?
If I want to use auto acce disabled, I use cursor on keybard and to accelarate and break the up and down arrows. But I cant change gears...
can't I change the keyboard settings to this game. Change Acc and break to Q and A for instance?
Thanks
Deiota
it's a problem the universal has:
you can't press two keyboard buttons at the same time.
you can press one keyboard button and one (or more?) of the edge buttons simultaneously though.
someone on here is trying to rewrite the keyboard driver to address this problem.

Hi,
I'm looking for a SNES emu for the wizard which can use the keyboard as a joypad.
I've tested with morphgear and the SNES addon but even if I assign the keyboard, I can't make Mario (or others ) move properly...
Is there another good emu (SNES or other) using Keyboard and landscape mode?
Thanks !
Morphgear does this perfectly
can u tell me how to make it work in landscape and with the keyboard.
when i put it into landscape i get an error.thank you
I get an error too - I think its got something to do with gapi ?
i managed to solve this lil prob a few weeks back,
all you have to do *and yes its a bit long winded*
is open the wizards keyboard so the screen switches to landscape mode, then set the screen back to portrait mode in settings *usually best to assign a button to do this* then open up morphgear, set all the games to run in left handed *east i think* orientation and start the game, tap the screen to make it full screen and bang!! works perfectly,
hope this helps ;-)

All I do is open the keyboard up first, turn on morphgear and set it to west (so i can use the D pad in games) and then assign functions to the keyboard buttons and it works fine. Games run a bit slow though even with overclocking since the application is a bit old.
Is Morph free?
in the past week ive been studying up on the touch dual a bit as i might get one as a replacement to my ancient htc wizard. The main thing i (along with a number of other people im finding) see as a problem is the lack of soft-keys above the d-pad. I know for most programs you can just use the on screen bottom two keys, but for emulators im just wondering how this would work?
I know morphgear has button mapping so I could map the three sega controller buttons to the physical number pad and be fine there, but what about picodrive and other emulators whos internal programming just expect there to be soft-keys and default the controls to them?
if it wasnt for my love of classic games and the need to have them work on my phone, the touch dual would be in my hand as we speak!

I mainly use morphgear and finalburn and all work fine...
I prefer morphgear exacly because of its customization features, its not the best or fastest, but its easier to use.
Great news, you CAN use all the keys in picodrive, just select the 3 keys option (instead of 6) in picodrive v0.52.
well, my dual cant handle if two buttons are pressed at the same time :S,
so i have to use dpad, and one number at a time for other functions because dpad center conflicts with the left,right etc...:S
Is there a way to fix it??
This isnt what you wanted, but this genesis emulator can mimic severall button pressed with a screen touch:

Tried GRemote?? Its working good (over wifi tho)
thanks will give it a try and get back to you. but is there a bluetooth solution
amazing software thanks.
but the hardware keyboard does works as if the square function key is pressed all the time and i cant disable it by pressing it. i have to use the on screen keyboard. any solution to this problem
also is there a way to make the touch area behave as left click by double tapping (like laptop touchpads)
the left click for xperia is just hold your finger on the screen and a circle will circle around the point pressed and open up a right click menu
can someone else confirm the keyboard problem. its driving me nuts.
btw im using touch-it 3.5
I confirm the hardware keyboard issue, works in [fn] mode all the time.
I use a program called Salling Clicker to control my computer. It can connect through bluetooth or wifi. It can control common media programs and does mouse and keyboard through scripts. This script was written for the TyTN but works on my TyTNII and my Xperia.

Hi guys I just upgraded my Dash to 3g. I installed pocketnester and when I play mario the only way he walks or runs is to keep scrolling the trackball. Can I use the trackball with pocketnester or do I have to assign buttons? Is there any other emulator out there that may support a trackball or a application to edit the trackball? Before I purchased I thought that if you just hold the trackball in one direction the object will keep moving. Thanks
The trackball actually emulates standard directional key presses. 2 or 3 quick swipes (configurable via the trackball control panel) will trigger "repeat mode".
The Snap is unfortunately a poor choice for emulation, unless you can remap the directional keys to keyboard keys.
bubble's right -- The trackball just emulates rapid directional button presses. However, you CAN assign the NES d-pad directions to keyboard buttons on the Snap/Dash 3G, as I have, and it's not bad. You may have to remap depending on the game you play, but it's not that hard. I play NES games on my Dash 3G constantly, and I don't have any control issues.
If you want to try the trackball, however, you CAN assign buttons to it. It's nearly unplayable, though.

Could you provide some details on how to assign buttons? Also, what emulator are you using?
Many thanks.
Before you get too excited this isn't a fix to the key mapping issue, it is simply me explaining how I've set up the keys to make games be playable on both emulators. with this set up they do work pretty well though.
FpseCE
First of all your going to want a frameskip of 0. With the snapdragon processor I've found that for the games I've tried at least it just makes them slower to add a frameskip.
Now for the keys. First open up the phone and then push the top left of the screen to go into portrait mode with the keys open. Your going to want to set the controller type to dual shock. Once that's done go into multikey. Push buttons 1-8 in order and unselect any buttons that are already highlighted and in use. then go back to 1 and start setting up your keys. This is how I set up mine.
Mutikey PS Controller Key Expo Key
1 Square Left
2 Circle Right
3 Triangle Up
4 X Down
5 R1 Camera Button
6 L1 Applications Button
7 Start Space Bar
8 Select Backspace
For racing games I switch the X and the R1 button because for some reason every time I pushed another key while holding X it would make me press X again to go again. Switching those two keys fixes that problem.
If you want to try and set up it differently for a certain game here is a list of all the keys that work for the LG Expo. (Left, Right, Up, Down, Space Bar, Enter/Ok (two buttons act as the same entry), Backspace, Camera Button, Application Button, Volume Up, Volume down)
Then go out of mutikey by pushing the back button on the phone. Go back to the controller and push the down arrow to set up the analog stick. Click on the box below the left analog stick until it shows a PSP looking device with the screen lit.
Push back on your phone and go into screen mapping. I prefer the 5 by 3 grid. Tap on the middle left most spot and change the control to left analog stick, an L with a circle around it. Make sure the input type is the arrows pointing both ways meaning it will only stay pressed as long as you press it. Then go to icon and change it to a target looking icon with a circle and a circle around it.
Now you're ready to play. Make the game full screen again and now your screen is the analog stick. Anywhere on the screen will actually activate the analog stick. What I do is put my thumb under the image on the screen so I can check and see which way it is facing without lifting my thumb.
MorphGear
The keys that work with MorphGear are the same as with FpseCE and those are (Left, Right, Up, Down, Space Bar, Enter/Ok (two buttons act as the same entry), Backspace, Camera Button, Application Button, Volume Up, Volume down).
I only play GBA games with my phone, so for other systems you may need to set them up differently, although these should work the same for the GB, GBC, NES, and many SNES games if not some others.
For up, down, left, and right I use those same buttons on the keyboard. I then use the Camera Button, Application Button and OK buttons for A, B, and R in different variations depending on the game I'm playing. Then use Volume Up and Volume Down for Start and Select. I put the Space Bar as the L button, but I don't intend on playing games that use it for anything else than occasional use.
If you were to play games that consistently use the L button you could either use Ok and Space Bar for A and B and then use the Camera Button and Application Button for the R and L buttons. However many games would also require you to press A and B at the same time so you would probably have to switch the A and B and the Start and Select buttons. it would be a bit weird holding the phone to play games with the A and B at the volume keys (most of the reason I avoid games that require use of the L key), but it would be playable.
Well, I hope all this helps.
You had me pretty excited there for a minute. Thanks for the info though.
Thanks for your excellent post! Would it be possible for you to upload your fpseCE configuration file? I am having problems getting fpseCE working, every rom i load just exits the program...

First of all it might just be the version of fpsece you're using. I had some issues with that myself for a bit. Make sure you're using fpsece 0.10. You can get that here.
http://perso.numericable.fr/schtruck/FpseCE_010.zip
I've also attached my fpse.ini file as well in case it isn't just the version you are using. You are still going to need to edit the keys for your games like I mentioned in my first post to get those properly working.
