Quake 3 CE on htc hd - Touch HD General

I have found this post :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=433595
It works on htc diamond so is it possible to make it work on htc hd ?
When I start quake I have this message :
'q3ce' is not a valid Pocket PC application.
help please

Hmm... and if you sucess...
How are you gonna control without a D-Pad ?

maybe we will control with G pad ...

Exactly...
Just assign the D-PAD to the G-Sensor. Should work nicely.

What's about the WVGAFix + D-Pad Project.... I hope it's not dead

yes, it should be nice
I hope that someone will find the solution to work on hd

Whats this DPAD / GPAD ? I want to play Age of Empires and it runs except needs a control pad!

First hit after searching for G-Pad

I did not find any application that works to use a pad with G sensor
to play Age of Empires, you can use the minimap, it is a bit boring but it is playable
Nobody has a solution for quake 3 ?

Will a bluetooth keyboard work?

yes I think but it should first be able to launch quake 3 on htc hd

Well, the game boots on my Touch HD just fine.
Allows me to configure parameters, choose player (it displays the 3D models correctly), and everything seems smooth.
When I try to start the first level, it loads it up and immediately dumps me back to the opening screen, without any error message. It did the same both with GL Extensions enabled and disabled in the options screen.
That's as far as I got.

where do you download quake 3 ?
how do you install it ?
can you add q3ce.exe to this post please ?

seconded......

I managed to run Quake 3 CE on htc hd
it runs with 7 FPS
the max I could have is 12 FPS

with or without d3d drivers?

I have tried with and without d3d drivers
I think it is the same
but I have followed this thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=460006
and it really is faster and more responsive not in quake 3, a little in quake 3 but especially in general

I can run Q3 but about 5fps what aint good. Pity it would rock in multiplayer !
But out of ten roms tested recently, not many loaded it up at all. Present rom works.
Phoenix that is pretty good. In my case my hardware holds me back.

No1 posts about games or fun applications here... Lets start

All of this technical stuff may be fun in a way! But Id much rather get some cool games on my phone! Sim City 200 is very awsome but I dont like using the stylus on buses etc! Any other good preferably FREE .cab games?
There are other threads on games, we're all just geeks here, no time for that l4m3r kinda stuff.
I almost never use my phone for games, but more due to lack of time. I think if it weren't for the stupid dpad issue (can't press dpad and some other keys), it'd be a kick ass device. Particularly the wizard, with dpad on one side, "action" buttons on the other, it's like a PSP but useful (I'd love to have a PSP, but I'd spend all day hacking it!)
However, I love xRick, Monkey Island on Scumm, Tetris, Asteroids (Pocket Frog version) and Space Invaders (found on Modaco).
Not free, but I love SprintRG, Elite, Vector Blaster (I bought it for both my p900 and Magician!), Pocket Slay (superb, even just in trial mode), and BustEm.

pocketNester will let u play every Nintendo Entertainment System game ever made and it runs very smoothly on the HTC Wizard, un-fu**ing-fortunately, the the phone buttons cannot be assigned, so you only have one button on either side of the d-pad.
many windows mobile games don't run very well on the wizard because of its OMAP processor structure. you need to do some system tweaking to get some games to run smoothly, and there aren't many system tweaking apps for the OMAP processor out there, yet.

doom- configuration
Hi IMate->WM2k5!
thanks for the tips. I was playing Wolfstein 3D. But doom is better.
Can you, please give me an advice- how dou you map the keys for the Wizard (if in landscape mode) which keys do you use + how to map them. Do you use one of the skins provided (default, industrial, keyboard, etc?)
Thanks

Where do you get that!?? I've never heard of that one!
I don't get to play games as much on my ppc. but when I do I usually play Bejeweled and Zuma, Text Twist if I feel like I need to exercise my brain a bit. I also play PocketUFO occasionally [it is a port of XCOM Enemy Unknown] it is free and is available from SMK.

Yes. This is done through skins. Check out "Skins Specs.txt" in "Skins" folder of gfDoom. Attached is my skin. Place it to "\Program files\Doom1\skins\default" folder and replace old file.
Shortly, you need to know key codes for keyboard buttons. These can be obtained using MorphGear / Button configuration. Then mapping is done by adding lines in this syntax "VKHWBUTTON KeyCode NameOfFunction" to "doomskin.txt". List of commands is given in "\Program Files\Doom1\skins\Skin Specs.txt"
Example for "O" (key code is 79) to open doors (command: OPEN)
Code:
VKHWBUTTON 79 OPEN
My keys:
Ok/X = Run toggle
O = Open doors
SPACE = Fire
BACKSPACE = Escape
G = Gamma level increase
W / S / A / D = Cursor with strafe keys
X = Quit game[/code]
Does 'Street Duel' work on it? That game is awesome!
Ah I just got scummvm to work on it! Very chuffed!
Is the law regarding that, you can download the games aslong as you have the origionals even if its in a different format? As I have Monkey Island for the Amiga, so would it be legal to have the scummvm version?
Does anyone know where I can download Discworld and Broken Sword from? I have them for the Playstation but they would be wicked on my phone! I know the website jmc mobile has a few good ones on it!
Same with Doom... Is there just a shareware version out or the full game?

Morpgear works great, except for landscape east orientation, but using landscape west (keyboard 'above' screen) games are very well playable.
To get good performance, use OmapClock
Yes morphgear woks in landscape an East orientation!
You have to pull the keyboard (so the screen goes to landscape mode) and with a 3rd party software (like "Inclose Mobile") go back to portrait orientation. Then start morphgear and you can play in fullscreen landscape mode without bug.
However it was difficult to assign key... some on them are buggy and don't work properly...
But with omap clock at 264 and thread priority set to low in morphgear SNES game are quite playable!

Just use Start->Settings->System->Screen applet to rotate back to portrait. No need for 3rd party soft. Another acceleration would be using of GAPI Driver (General Settings of MorphGear)
racing games?
heard there are a few racing games, searched and found Midtown Madness 3D for smartphone.
http://www.clickgamer.com/moreinfo.htm?pid=3401&section=SMART
seems a little pricey, but i might just pick it up. has anyone tried it?
i cant get morpheous to work, anyone got a link for the cab / exe file ?
chrisredmayne: if you own a license to the game, even as old as that, I'm sure no one will mind if you use it with ScummVM.
To find other similar games, check out abandonware sites. I love having Monkey Island on my phone, even if I never play it. The mere curiosity value always makes me smile.

Touch games

Hi guys
Any suggestions on games for my Touch? Given the processer speed etc what games will work and are safe?
Thanks a lot!
No one playing games on their Touch?
great game I play is maggot attack pinball, im trying to find a working version of celeris virtual pool mobile but doesnt seem to wok right, cant exit the game and cant enter the menu....also a good game is bejeweled2 but that doesnt work right either
I agree that there are some games that just dont seem to work right (struggling to exit etc). Is the Touch unable to hanlde games then? I have a demo verion of Call of Duty 2 on which appears ok but are we left with simple stuff like pacman and bubbles only?
I'm currently playing Broken Sword Shadow of the Templars by Astraware. It works great and is completely stylus based, so the lack of hardware buttons is not important. After that I will be playing Siberia 1 and 2 which should be about the same.
Call of Duty 2 runs well on my Touch clocked to 260 mhz....
on mine COD2 was really slow at 312 ;|
Age of empires works great
yes, AoE is really good.
and i play Flux, Anthelion 2 and simbsoft volleyball

Monkey Island 1 and 2 for me
Can you guys please post a link, for where we can get those guys.
For me i would like link for Age of Empires and Volleyball.
And is this for Touch (not dual)?
i installed some games on my touch and they work well.
allin holdem, billard master2, bowling master, maumau, millionaire, olmi chess(multiplayer), poker challange, sea strike, smart mahjongg, smart simon, solitaire, tropical nights and some more java games like scrabble.
Download the windows CE arm package from scummvm
http://www.scummvm.org/downloads.php
And then obtain copies of monkey island 1 and 2 copy them to your mobile device and run scummvm
Its absolutely awesome

Emulator for Touch Pro2 (+roms)

Guys,
Any good emulators for HTC Touch Pro 2 on the net? - GBC
- GBA
- PS
Any nice games/roms for these emulators?(for example i would like to have the whole pokemon series (from GBC to GBA (to DS if possible)))
What are your sources? sites and ****
Will there be emulators of PSP or DS or something or isnt that possible?
Thanks
Dont think those emulators exists.
I was looking for emulators of nes and sega, could find anything..
You can use morphgear if you change your IME settings so it can recognise the keyboard. However, Genesis module crashes and SNES isn't so stable either. SNES is usable though.
I've so far found FPSCe for PS(x?), Pocketgnuboy for GBC and Morphgear for GBA..
But shouldnt TP2 be able to play games from DS and PSP platforms.. it at least has a better CPU?? or doesnt that have anything to do with it?

Please note, you need to emulate EVERYTHING from DS and PSP! Our beloved Pro2 isn't capable of that!
Simply try to play a GBA game with sound enabled and you know how many power such an emulation would need!
P.S.:
Have you tried PocketGBA for GBA games? Loved it on my old dead Diamond!

Just because it has a higher CPU speed, does not mean it should be able to process stuff from other platforms better.
All CPUs have different architectures. The CPU in the Touch Pro2 is an evolution of the ARM architecture. The DS also uses an ARM class processor, but uses a different instruction set.
The PSP uses a MIPS CPU.
Modern computers use variations of the x86 architecture.
The reason why they are called "Emulators" is because they have to emulate the instructions and architechture of the processor of the other device. This wastes a HELL of a lot of your own devices CPU cycles.
This is why running a PlayStation (33MHz MIPS CPU) emulator on a 500MHz x86 PC CPU is pretty slow, despite having 15x the CPU speed.
Does anybode here have a NES or/and SNES emulator, which one supports landscape modus ???
I am using an TP2
1.53 CRASHEs after i try to load the selected rom.
Thanks a lot !
After I have watched the following video, I found that TP2 is quite smooth for playing some games on emulator.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9b0BXy55KI
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Awp1PlK2A70
You can also try emulating PC (not just DOS). You can mount any ISO as CDROM drive, there is Windows95 image ready to use, so no need to install, just start it up and play with it.
I got it all to work, it's not very slow, sometimes I click on something and it opens in 1-2 seconds, so not bad.
Not something to install games and play, but something cool to show off and play with.
I managed to add NE2000 network card but couldn't get network to work yet.
Works well on Touch Pro2, including Landscape mode.
After you press F12, hardware keyboard Enter key works as mouse click (single and double click). F5 turns full screen on.
Instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3581848&postcount=258
P.S. There also is older MAC OSX image, loads pretty quickly under that emulator.
I think SNES emulator works...
you may try this..

Not working on my TP2..
Gives a SEND - Do not send error after i chose the rom to load..
Is there anyone who managed to make it work on the tp2 ?

wow, wait a sec.. does that mean that you managed to make an emulator work for the TP2 , which also supports landscape and full screen ?

If there is someone here in this whole forum, who wants it the most, than its definitely me

oohww.. no.. sorry i made you all enthousiastic for nothing
i ment thanks for the info about why the tp2 probably wont be able to handle psp & ds games.. and the software suggestions like.. fpsce(ps) pocketgnuboy(gbc) pocketgba/morphgear(gba) pocketsnes(snes)..
(allthough i thought that the gba emulators are in landscape what i saw on youtube.. but don't wanna give you false hope)
laterss..
I'd definitely be getting on this when I get my TP2 next week. I love using emulators for gaming on my Wizard and will definitely find ways to get SNES,PS,GBA working.

psx is playstation one. FPSeCE will run playstation games on Windows Mobile. There is a new version that should be coming out soon I've been keeping an eye on this one.
www.fpsece.net
and how about a c64 emu for wvga?
the *morphgear* is a great emulator (nes,snes,mdrive,gboy,gboycolor....) to full screen mode u have to go in the config settings,tap the vgame u'll play(nes,snes....) and change de zoom 100% to window size. u have to change de driver to (auto to GDI) , in orientation stay in north. to config the inputs u have to tap your virtual keyboard and tap "other inputs method", if u don't to it u'll stock inthe config input method and the number 229 will appear in all buttons. thanks

FpseCE 0.1[ps1 emu] on jade

fpsece is program that can run ps1 games on pocketpc devices ....i said why don't gave it a try on jade as it supposed to run this program at good speed ....and this link shows games requirement [high end device-or mid device- slow device] [http://www.fpsece.net/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=101&sid=018ce0e0a570239526038ac18bea01a3] .....i decided to try the games that can work on slow devices ...the problem is even games that supposed to run very fast as thay said it run so slow not playable at all ..........
i just want to make sure that this is the speed of jade on this program its oky if it dosen't work
so can pepole share their experience with this progeam srry for my bad english
i´m using fpsece 0,10 on my jade with great success.
first of all, you have to try as much game sas possible to be able to pick those which runs good. second, prefer PAL versions over NTSC, they are reported to have more speed. third, you need ti fiddle with game config file to find what setting works best - no sound helps me get more speed. Also games ripped with Pocket ISO runs better.
i am personally very happy with this app, the fact that Jade have no HW butons except D-pad makes many games (ports like Quake, DN..) unplayable... you are never getting Tomb Raider to work with Jade, because lack of buttons.
This all is dealt with in fpsece, you can configure onscreen buttons - as many as you want plus configure D-pad, even to a point it follows screen orientation...
definitely worth a try.
I tried many games but these are running realy good:
Wipeout - full speed! will be your number 1.
GranTurismo 1,2 -pretty fast, 1st one mostly
Ridge Racer Revolution & Ridge Racer Type 4 - playable cca 20-30fps
Resident Evil Survivor - smooth enough, 20+fps
Hidden & Dangerous - same as above, only one real FPS that works that good
old doom-likes, Exhumed...
now i´m trying to optimize even V-Rally´s performance to move up... will see
, read forums, play with it.

thx for reply....and yea games works with good fps without sound i have tried twisted metal 2 ntsc verison i think and it work very good 28+
you can use volume buttons but if u not pressed and hold on it because if u hold it will disable and enable volume ...this problem only on with this emulator because we can use call ,reject and volume buttons in other emu like snes with no problem so i hope they fix it.......
and about editing game config file ..all i know is sound off and on idon't know what else i can customise so i will put some lines and tell me what to edit:

Generic on screen controller ?`

Hi all
Ive downloaded a few games like Worms on my HD2 that seem to work great jut wondering if there is a generic controller that i can download to play games ?
whethr it be faintly over the game screen or whatever ?
thanks
Jack
I use this one here. Im not sure about the compatibility to all the games out there (was designed for worms classic --> the FAR BETTER WORMS BY THE WAY , but im sure they need to support onscreen gamepads to work properly (p.ex. in worms you could/had to assign the keys to the functions of the pad) and unfortunately have to be in/support vga. You need to start the exe inside always before you want to play a game or even better: make a short mortscript which always starts both - the game and the keypad. Enjoy and maybe you want to tell us if it works for other games as well.
Greets
EDIT - One thing: the "X" always closes the keypad-application
o brilliant thanks for that ! works great with worms havent tried it with others yet but will post on how i get on
again thanks alot

you should really try the new version of Worms, Worms 2010, works with WVGA and touchscreen, it is excellent.

Already tried it some time ago and didnt really like it Classic Worms World Party is still my favorite --> Close to PC-Version, better movement if you ask me, more configurable things and in my eyes still the cuter graphics (apart from the fact, that in worms 2010 even the wvga version is still pixulated which would not have been necessary as the game doesnt need a lot of hardware power)... But thats a matter of taste...
