Idea: G-Tetris - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Is it posible to make a tetris game that uses the g-sensor? For example: you rotate the blocks with the touch sensitive round thing in the direction that you want and you make the blocks go left-right-down bij tilting your diamond?

Nice idea.
And drop the blocks by clicking down or... suddenly move the device down (like you want to drop it).

Yeah could do either of those " Hopefully some developer likes it aswell. Now we wait ^^

I really want Tetris for my Diamond - and what is better then using the tilt function? Well optional it would be with keys. Is there any classic Tetris for WM6 that works for our Diamonds out there?

Thanks Andrea!
You made my day !!!

Tested out Kevtris some (and a bunch more Tetris games out there). I'm not satisfied by having to use the "enter" button on the Touch Diamond, since it sucks! Trying to click "left" on the button soon finding out that I pushed the Home button instead... gets kinda frustrating! And also the button is stiff, too stiff!
So I continued my search for a Tetris game where you could play with your fingers and or stylus. The ONLY Tetris game I found out was TeKnowMagic Tetris, but sadly it does NOT support VGA mode... and as a side note it's kinda bad looking with the black background, bad brick style and ugly rotation buttons... This is the game I'm talking about: http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-teknowmagic-tetris.html
Is there ANY other Tetris game with more features, better looking, support for native VGA and a touch interface out there?? I _need_ a proper Tetris game!!

not if the device is locked.
What you see here looks like the MAME Emulator for PPC.
It splits the screen in 3 parts which are used as the Buttons.
What takes me wonder ist that it also looks like that he is using the jog wheel als joystick.
Does anyone konw how this can be done?
No this is FinalBurn.
In this emulator you can emulate the fire buttons on the touchscreen.
It can be found here:

looks awesome ill have to get my hands on it when i get home
And that's not Street Fighter but Art of Fighting. ^^'

Ok looks good but the dpad is not good enough to play.
Does anyone know if it is possible to use the Jog Wheel?

Please upload right here if u manage to find this game.
Thanks !!!
FinalBurn does indeed emulate CPS1, CPS2 and CPS3 games (including Street Fighter Alpha 3).
However there are several problems:
1. Low FPS during match (other games like XMENVSSTREETFIGHTER are better)
2. Jerky UNPLAYABLE performance with Sound ON.
3. Keyboard can't be mapped
4. Controls mapping issue
The degree to which FPS is impacted is dependant on the game.
This is my experience with the HTC Touch Pro.
I think we need a more optimised FinalBurn version.
Another problem is that the processor has to process 4 times more info for the VGA screen so it will probably work better in QVGA devices.
Unfortunately I've not found a way to adjust in game resolution.
This MAME emulator certainly has potential!

Is Keyboard mapping in Morphgear etc. normal ? Or abnormal like on the Raphael ?

Is Keyboard mapping normal ? Or abnormal like on the Raphael ?
(When mapping keys in Emulators like Picodrive, SNes, Morphgear etc.)
Can someone with a X1 test it ?
Thx alot !!!
No one here with a X1 to test it ?
Haven't tried it with Morphgear yet but it works ok with Fpsece and some games i've tested (Duke Nukem 3d, Quake 3, Call of Duty 2) so it shoudn't be any problems.
Sounds nice ! Thx for your reply !

I currently have a Touch Pro, and I'm seriously considering moving to the xperia... How do quake 3/ Duke Nukem etc play on the experia? Good framerates/playable? Any sound problems?
I'm using HTC touch pro.
The keyboard wasnt useable, but with an addon "K for raphael" important keys (like left/right/up/down,a,s,x,z,-,=,backspace,shift) are covered.
The only problem I'm having atm is that when I enable sound the games become laggy (sound aswell) but when i disable it the games run smooth as hell!
Anyone else here with a HTC TP that had sound issues and fixed them? I tried lower bitrate, all the availb sound options but nothing seemed to work
Sorry for bumping this old thread, but is the Xperia keyboard good for doing things like moving up/down, right/left in Sega games? Or are the small buttons not really suited for this?
I been kicking ass in TMNT lost in time snes on morphgear, keys are great for it

[REQ] Helicopter (iCopter) for touch diamond/VGA

I think that everyone here knows the game on the iphone, computer and qvga winmo where you have to fly a helicopter trough a cave by tapping on the screen. Unfortunately there is no such game for VGA windows mobile phones, like the diamond. I hope that a developer is willing to make this simple game for the diamond, It'll make me (and others) very happy .
The qvga version (which simply doesn't start up on the diamond) is found here: http://gamezone.floftgames.com/game/helicopter .
The game is kinda like caver for the touch diamond, over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410178 , maybe that'll help.
theres a game called caver ! i think the helicopter is replaced by a ball! hope thats close enough for you ! search for it

Thanks for the reply but caver is controlled by the G-Sensor and helicopter is controlled by taps on the screen or on a button. You can watch the clip below to see what i mean: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1XA4j8Ecak#t=35s . As you can see, if you tap the screen the helicopter goes up and when you release the helicopter goes down. You can play it on your computer over here : http://www.addictinggames.com/helicopter.html .

X1 Game Emulation Thread

Hi there,
i got my X1 today and am still playing around with it...tried some of the Emulators like PocketNester and PocketSNES.
I can run some games in them, but the main issue is that the screen is really really small. It takes up roughly 1/8 of the screen so i guess thats QVGA resolution or something.
Also landscape mode doesnt really work. PocketNester doesnt react to changes of "Display" at all and always remains in portrait mode. SmartSNES does landscape mode, but its in the wrong direction meaning that to have the picture right you have to hold the X1 with the keyboard on top
PocketSNES doesnt load any roms and quits with an error.
The biggest Issue with PocketNester and SmartSNES is the really small screen which makes it unplayable. When i touch the screen to pause a game the screen is suddenly bigger and in the right direction, which would be playable, but when i unpause the game its all wrong and small again.
I still have got to try the GBA and NeoGeo (Finalburn) emulatos, but i dont have high hopes on these too...
Anyone any positive experience ?
All I know is I've been waiting/searching for a good emulator that does landscape and allows you to map keyboard buttons since the first TyTN came out
Here we go ...
Hey !
I attached the best (and working!) emulators I found over the years.
All of them work with VGA, in landscape (for some use WVGA fix2) + you can map the buttons to your keyboard too.
Some of them require to install an run WVGA FIX2 first.
This little Program "cuts" the pixels bigger than VGA from your device.
Dont get scared.. This only happens as long as you run the program.
Those pixels get black and the program emulates a VGA screen.
So most programms (not only emulators) will work fine on our nice WVGA screen.
Cheers !

Best PocketSNES version.

when using WVGA Fix with that, the screen is upside down...atleast with PocketSNES...
anyone tried any of those on the X1 yet ?
The performance with some enabled also is horrid.

This is a collection especially for the X1.
ALL of my posted emulators ARE working on the X1.
For some use WVGA FIX2 first !
I use all of them on my X1.
-> Screen upside down ? Try going to options in the emulator and switch it ;-)
Btw: The QWERTZ Pocket SNES Emulator is faster but the TOUCH Pocket SNES Emulator comes with touchbuttons (on the screen) embedded. Now you know why the different versions in the zip have tose funny names ;-)
Greets !

That is the same version I attached as -QWERTZPocketSnes- in the PocketSnes.zip --> V1.53
Well then we both agree that it's the best!
that version of PocketSNES is acutally working good, but i cant map the keyboard with that one. Would be better as to use on screen buttons imho, but on the other hand i had problems assigning keys in another version of PocketSNES because some keys seem to have the same Hardware Code...really weird, but i cant map all the keys in the arrow-keys area to different actions which would be ideal for gaming :/
With the onscreen version i cant move my character forward/backward using that touch navigation button..can you ?

TouchHD and games

Hi,
I've got a question for TouchHD owners, I m use to use my touch (elf) to play game such as Tetris to waste time in the airport/train. I would like to buy a touch HD but given there is not button, it is possible to play this kind of games?
thanks.

No , you can't. On HD can't play games that need buttons for game play ...
I hope that optimized games for a such big and touch screen will be developed
Maybe a software D-Pad, so the games would run at 640x480 with a touch d-pad...
I'd kill for a good screen overlay that blocks input to the game and provides overlay hardware buttons. would be great if you can activate it once you start a game and need no more menus.
the psx emulator uses a similar method, ingame you get a screen overlay so you can do without any buttons. brilliant. that's why my Diamond was very adept at playing games as long as they were PS1 games, and im sure the HD is no exception.

The iphone psx emulator is quite the same as the one that winmo has (and had before iphone did, years before actually) and it has great features.
Something like that should be made as a separate program.
But problem: you need some way of placing a program layer (the invisible button layer) on top of an otherwise functional other full screen program -> not really possible in any stable or practical way... or so it seems.
Anyone?
Or, I am gonna get me this:
http://www.tang-shop.com/bluetooth-game-pad-bgp-100.html
HELL yeah
can anybody confirm this is compatible with the HD?
I'm guessing so.
Is there someone who has tested the games for the Blackstone?
You can get a list of games that work on Blackstone?
Thank you
we should start a separate thread like the apps thread... games are a whole different kind of app so it would make sense to make such a thread, or merge with the apps thread after all?? mods??
It would be hard to play with soft keypads..
Since HD doesn't support multi touch, if the game needs you to press 2+ keys at the same time it just won't work.
This Warcraft 2 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=422606 - works with the WVGA fix, all we need now is for someone to figure out how to edit the pocketpc.lua so that one of the volume keys works as right click.

Damn. Would have been a nice option. I also found some threads about making regular controllers work, but can't find any post of somebody getting it to work... Are there any other options than the clip-on controller?
Why we don't use the Gsensonsor for navigation? Gcontroller is a good app that do the trick. If there is something more accurate.
