Hello, I´m bit lame about that, but does exist some launcher for 640*480 games which will use that another 160*480 pixels for software dpad(which I can use for maping dpad buttons in my pocket gba emulator) ?

A member of this forum is working on a SIP like that.. try searching the forum
I have no clues what i am actually trying to find, so I cant find that thread probably...
I found that ...

That looks like I can use this for maping my volume keys anc calls keys as dpad keys, but it is still very ugly uncomfortable solution. And its also some beta and need some netframeworks 3,5 also... :-/
Please give me link to that thread you are talking about.

Hi there.
This question may have been asked before, and I used the search function, but didn't find a satisfying answer.
Do you guys know of any (S)NES/gameboy emulator that works on the TyTN?
PocketNester seems to have problems with the screen being in landscape...
Thnx
I know this is not much helpful either...I'm working on a new version of PocketNester which may be released in several weeks.
Try Morphgear.. it works fine on my TyTN..

Cool! The one thing I was put off by with SNES emulators was that you were forced to use the touchscreen, and the interface for that took up a good 1/3rd of the screen!
Are you showing it full screen in landscape and allowing use of the hardware keyboard to control?!? train journeys would be even better (still good thanks to coreplayer but...) if SNES games were on the agenda also!

Will you please post here when it's finished? I thank you very much in advance.
And Shamanix, thanks for your tip to use Morphgear. I think I did that, and it didn't work. I'll try again. Which version are you using?
Regards,
DM
I am using v2.4.0.1, but there is a newer version out there..

Landscape support: Yes, as well as VGA support.
But the new features in this version will not be just limited to that.
Speak of SNES emulator...we'll see
PocketGBA is surprisingly good, I play without sound though so that may have an impact.
http://www.sunbug.net/products/emul/PocketGBA.html
You can play in landscape and assign the message and internet keys to a and b so it's like holding a proper games console
oh yes and it's free :-D
I use PocketSNES - works fine on most games.
Also use CEGG (GameGear/Master System), PicoDrive (Genesis/Megadrive), GNUboy and PocketGBA and recommend them all (well, some versions...).
Fed up of emulation on Hermes though, what with the multiple-key bug and lack of diagonals. Can't seem to play a game without using the on-screen pad and hardware keys simultaneously. Real pain.
On the other hand, there's PocketSCUMM!
He everybody.
I found a nice NES emlator whis works great on the diamond (and other wm devices). Its simple and fun. I do not take any credits for the emulator.
you can find it hear: http://pocketnes.retrogames.com/
direct link: http://pocketnes.retrogames.com/pocketnes0100.exe
O and you need to find the roms your own way. The bad way
P.S. this is my first thread. So YEAH ME
Wow awesome, I've given it a run through and it performs really well. There is one fatal flaw unfortunately, but this is an issue with WM lacking multi touch... You can't hold down B and press a directional arrow at the same time! So in Mario for example, you can't hold down B to run... You can't jump while you're running e.t.c. I tried remapping the A and B functions to the call end and back key but it refused to recognise the setup. Besides, prolonged pressing of those buttons surely won't do them any good. I wonder if there is a workaround...
if you want NES roms, here they are http://www.romnation.net/srv/roms/nes
cannot set controls to play games..for example POP
Remapping the A and B button to the up and down volume keys works very nice while using the standard harware d-pad =)
/sonny
or the midle and back button like I have. And tnx everybody for your positife commends. and lepermessiah for his nice link. lest al keap this NES on ppc alive!!!!
doesnt work here downloaded several snes roms but none of them starts up..

yes im sorry, i tried several nes roms but it didnt work.. if i start a rom *.nes it pops back and does nothing..
try a diverent one. I got all the nes roms working
Prince of Persia is working great, but it's a pitty that the keyboard shown on screenshots doesn't work (sometimes flashes, but that's all)
I had issues mapping the volume keys. The MDA Compact IV d-pad is very stiff, not much use for directions. I find the lack of multi touch a real killer for this. Would run real nice on a HTC Touch HD if they gave it this extra feature.
But I digress, this is a Diamond forum.
Hi, i saw this game for touch diamond on youtube. Does anyone know where can i find or buy it. Thanks
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sqyy9K3Uj64
street fighter on diamond! ZOMG!!!1!!11!!
id rather have shoot-em-up like Raiden on my diamond.
cant get enough of shootin alien ships
hmmm .. whats he pushing to controll??
maybe it's just a video of a street-fighter game.. fake??
well I hope it's real.. that would be awesome!!
he seems to be touching the screen with his right thumb? would that not bring up the controls of the video app? hmmm....i wonder
I wonder if it is using the accelerometer somehow,, but anyways can't wait to try it out. If i can find it somewhere

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:

TDO
looks awesome ill have to get my hands on it when i get home
And that's not Street Fighter but Art of Fighting. ^^'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_sYsvoOdPo
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!
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.

Mm, yeah nice collection you got going there. That SNES emu doesn't work though.

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 ?
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.
