Warcraft 2 multiplayer Help - Hermes HTC 8525 - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

I have an 8525 running WM 6 and I finally got Warcraft 2 working after having to download different files and everything in my /Storage Card/Program Files getting erased.
The game works okay, but I was wondering how to enable the Multiplayer part of it.
Also the shortcut keys on the 8525 won't work with the game, and when I open the screen it disables me from being able to touch the screen. Thanks!

it cant connect to normal warcraft2 games only to wargus servers

maybe you should read this
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1696080&group_id=101981&atid=630576

It looks as though I need to extract something from the CD onto my 8525? If so, what files go where?

Anybody????

I took care of the touch screen problem, I just really want to know how to get multiplayer to work. I am a legal owner of Warcraft 2 Battle Net Edition
Thanks

as stated you cant use wargus to connect to battleneck
you cant use wargus to connect to games with real warcraft2

Hi MG, an old thread, but mayb you'll remember. I've been trying to install warcraft 2 based on the stratagus port on my hermes, and this happens: it starts up, goes to menu screen, and does not respond to screen or buttons. its not hung, i can do a normal shutdown or sometimes even minimize w gesture (the assigned hard button wont minimize). I also let it wait for like half an hour, no change. Do you have any advice, is that something you had to fix with yours? Thanks

Working Games and game related questions...please post here

I dont normally play games on me mobile but things have changed since I got my SPV3100 and now my Ameo!
Was thinking we could start a list with useful links of games that actually work on the ameo.
Ive managed to find a classic, wolfenstein 3d, its a complete port and it runs really well!
I was wondering tho if anyone can get Quake or Doom working. (found hpc doom but it crashes at the very start, looks like it would work but doesnt)
What games do you guys have working on your Athena?
Got Doom Working! Its Great!
Managed to get doom working fine.
Heres where you need to go to download the program, it runs in Portrait at the moment but works smoothly nonetheless.
http://home.freeuk.com/gamefreaks/pql/gfDoom.htm
Keys:
Joystick - Directional Control
Tap at the bottom half of the screen / Comm Manager Button - Fire
If you want to exit, click the X in the top right, then Press the camera button. Once in the main menu, move down to exit game and then press the camera button again.
You need to have the DOOM1.wad file (read the readme file that comes with the program from explainations)
Very nice!
Have fun!
My personal favourites are
SPB Brain Evolution (although it infuriates me!)
SPB Air Islands (the game sucks, but it has some cool minigames and it's VGA!)
ScummVM is a must! Its free, you just have to get the game files. There are even some free games.
Favourites of mine, Sam 7 Max, Simon the Sourcerer, Day of the Tentacle
It works, but you have problems starting it up. Start with the pda in portrait mode, and fumble your way around to the options menu to get to graphics settings and turn on the 2x doubling. Once thats done it works fine from then on.
Megadrive Emulator
Managed to get PicoDrive working altho all the keys are messed up because of the screen orientation, it seems to get the joystick confused, and makes UP left and DOWN right for some reason, still looks good on the Ameo tho!
Keep em coming!
Thanks for the games so far

Gotta agree with you on Spb Brain Evo ..simply the nuts. I also like the 'Real Dice' ensemble of games like;
Real Dice Mahjong
Real Dice Dominos
Real Dice Sudoku Master II......all are in high quality genuine VGA. They look and play really well.
Open Transport Tycoon Deluxe (2.0 beta) works perfectly (just remember to set the phone to portrait view before starting). Now with the "original" music sounds!
http://www.esoftinteractive.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1570
SIM Coupe (SAM Coupe emulator) works okay if you start in Portrait mode with only the "keyboard" menu being present as a glitch. (I thought I'd posted about Pocket Commodore Plus/4, too, which works but is PAINFULLY slow sometimes).
For bought games, Broken Sword (Astraware) demo looks very very promising indeed; it rotated the screen correctly and looks very pretty, and appears to be playing at the correct speed.
Hi
This is my first post so hope im doing this ok.
I am thinking of getting one of there phones as a friend has one.
I currently have a hermes and all is ok, the problem is that the athena is lacking in buttons on the front that are needed to play games, like "fire" in worms for example.
none of the keyboard buttons seem to work.
Is there a way round this?
thanks
Sean.
I have the same trouble, Worms in X7500 only admit two buttons and the game requires three buttons to work correctly.
Can someboy modify the wwpsave.dat as somebody did for the HTC Touch to make the x7500 buttons workable for this game???
Thank you.

How To Install Emulator

Hey I downloaded 2 different emulators and I have no idea how to install them. I tried with Active Sync, I tried straight from the card. Nothing's working for me. Anybody got a sticky on what to do with the emulators and roms?
download this to your desktop
install it
look for the games you want here
download the games to your /my documents folder on your pocket pc or to your storage card root
start the nes emulator on your pocket pc and enjoy
thanks man.. . been wanting to ask that question but was just afraid to get flamed...
seem to have a hard time figuring out how to use the controls? which buttons do you use and how do you assign them?
do any of you have trouble playing either of the nes emulators youve gotten i got them to play just can never touch the screen or it becomes almost unresponsive pocket nester you install from pc and pocket nester plus launch straight from file explorer those are by far the best emulators I have came across just have problems with this phone
SWEET! cant wait to play super mario brothers!
i uninstalled it for the same reasons. i think it has a problem with the samsung cpu that is in the hermes. from what i hear, it works great on the wizards. if anyone figures out the problems please post it.
It worked fine for me. I was playing Tecmo Bowl and all that.
how to install Pocketnes Emulator on a t-mobile wing?

anyone get an NES emulator to work in landscape mode (use qwerty with tilt)?

me too.. i want to find out if its possible to play on landscape mode.
I've tried several different ways and landscape does not work. The video quality goes up significantly if you turn the volume off (in the app, not on the device). Some of the buttons cannot work for the controller (like the phone button). Otherwise it works perfectly and if you're playing, hit 'save state' under 'file' and you can restart from that second.
Thanx for the info, I was wondering where this lost memories were? Thanx.

ScummVM

I'm just wondering if anyone's been able to get it to work on the Diamond. I'm trying it, but it won't go fullscreen, and is unplayable.
works flawlessly for me...
i'm currently playing broken sword1 via diamond... really nice to play.
another good thing,the savegames on my diamond work on the winxp-version of scummvm too...
first time i started scummvm the screen was very small, but after i changed to fullscreen and configured the settings for bs1, this problem was gone...
maybe you could try another rom if that's the problem?!
greetz
alex
Doesnt change for me, whatever ROM I use. Never uses full screen.
What version of ScummVM are you using?
You have to set x2 screensize somewhere in options.
Works perfect.
only not enough controlls, in Full Throttle I can't get past the Bike-Slamming part
I am using 0.11.1 and it works flawlessly. Make sure you select AdvMAME2x as graphics mode and tick fullscreen mode.
Ah excellent, I hadn't chosen a graphics mode.
Now to find english versions of Monkey Island 1 and 2.
If you cant find them, send me a PM tomorrow (I've got them on my work PC)
I tried playing Day of the Tentacles and it just error'd ScummVM.exe

What kind of error? ScummVM simply exit without error messager? If it´s the case, your problem is the path of the games. Configure it again (maybe you have copied ScummVM from another PDA to Diamond; remember that Diamond hasn´t "Storage Card" path)
I have working:
Monkey Island
Monkey Island 2
Day of Tentacle (Maniac Mansion 2)
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
and
Indiana Jones: Fate of Atlantis
Found versions of MI 1 and 2, would love Sam N Max, DotT and the Indiana Jones games if someone has copies. Are these considered abandonware yet?
I ran Monkey Island 2 and was asked for the copy protection wheel, I thought I was going to have to go digging around under the stairs for my actual copy. Ah, 5.25 inch disks, those were the days.
Worst case install vic's mToday.cab (attached) and switch on the fly today screens.
I can't get scummvm to work fine on blackstone, the pointer doesn't match the point you pressed on the screen
guys.. nevermind

Diamond Emulator games

Hey, I found a link here on xda to a youtube video showing a game(Art of Fighting), and I wanna know if it really just a ROM emulator is, or is it game you install on your phone?
The user is 520darky on youtube, and he's got a few other games aswell.
If someone can reply to my question, can they please tell me where to get the games, either emulated ROM or Cab files.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
scruffy_joe
Morphgear or FPSECE. Do a google/xda search!
actually, for running art of fighting the emulator you need is Final Burn, it runs neo-geo games, CPS1 and CPS2, you can find roms in here http://romhustler.net. All games I've tried run pretty smooth ( super street fighter 2 turbo, marvel Vs. Capcom, art of fighting, street fighter alpha 2, etc )
any 1 got this working
managed to get the game started, credits loaded, and started a fight
but when i try to assign the keys it just doesnt work
i can assign 3 of the dpad keys but one always goes to home
also the on screen buttons, do not work as the game automatically pauses and goes into portrait mode
is there any easy was of disabling this so i can use finalburn, as graphics are quality

Yeah it works great for me, go into options and make sure enable screen keypad is ticked and use mode 1 (fire buttons) - then when you start a game pause it and go to Options-Keys- and re=map the buttons....i've got my back button (0x5C) mapped to coin and the centre button as start (0x8E) and everything works fine.
im using finalburn and havent managed to get either of super street fighter 2 turbo, marvel Vs. Capcom, art of fighting, street fighter alpha 2 to work - managed to get cps1 roms to work but not neogeo. iv got the neogeo.zip (bios) in the roms directory but still no luck. maybe im using an incompatible rom.
can anyone email me or pm me a link to a working rom?
I have mapped the keys and made sure the screen buttons are on
still my game pauses wen i press anywhere on the screen and i can not map the home key, all other keys i can map
but i only have 6 i can map??
is this anything to do with the cooked rom i am running maybe, swift
Hi dudes i find a good instructions for emu http://www.pocketpcmag.com/cms/index.php?q=blogs/3/1928
cheers
yeah that the guide i used to set ip up
but still no joy
i think it must be the swift rom
anyone got this working o this rom

[games] quake mobile

I've got a copy of v1.20 of quake mobile. (mobilequakebg.ppc2003_ARM.cab)
It installs just fine but I get an error trying to run it that says i'm missing a file. So it's either a cracked copy or I don't have the right driver, and I'm either to new or just not typing the right thing into any search.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm coming from blackberry and android, my last winmo phone was an excalibur when I swore it off but I'm back now that I've got a TP2.
TIA
fraid i cannot help aside from giving my own experances. Their is a file you need to download in addition, the maps i think, but no clue where to pull them from. I will say this tho, Quake doesnt work on the TP2. For one, its not made for the resolution, which might be the cause of the game not displaying.. All i get are the arrow keys on the screen and the sounds..but nothing else visually. I dont think it works.
