Hi everybody,
Does anybody know how to play Mame ROMS on a WM touch only PDA, like my HD2???
I've installed Pocket Cult Mame 0.5wip and it works very good but... you cannot configure any button to control, so the only method to stop it after runnning a ROM is to take off the battery or a soft reset.
Does anybody know how to solve the problem?
Other question: is it impossible to build a mame module to use under Morphgear?
İ'm having exactly the same issue on my omniaII I8000. There are plenty of emulators out there avaible for wm and i succeed to make some of them work on my i8000 but with the lack of Dpad it is impossible to play ! Any help about virtual onscreen control would be appreciated

How do you guys play these games on your WM devices? Are they not DOS games? Or are there WM versions now?
Or is there a DOS emulator out there for WM that everyone knows about except me?? :-(
Thanks,

yes...no... yes... and yes!
lol
their source went open and people recompiled them for wm
if they were to run emulated it they would run too poorly for anybody to bother
You'll need an external keyboard or something.
Without tweaking, you've only got the d-pad and centre button available for use in games. In addition, I've only been able to unlock the camera shutter button for mapping... but in doing so I've broken it's normal functionality as a shutter.
Best bet? Look for games that were created for windows mobile and rely heavily on the touchscreen for control.
Also note, when looking for software for the Touch/Vogue... you might want to skip the smart phone versions. You DO have a windows mobile smart phone, but usually the smart phone version is for a device without a touch screen.
You can use the camera, dpad, send, and end buttons in most emulators, with the combination of the touchscreen. I can use em in all of mine
no external keyboard needed for any of the ones i mention
it's all part hardware buttons hard touch screen for moving the char and shooting if we sepak of fps games
though imho these fps's are not really usefull to play for real
rts and rpg's works better because one dont need as much precision and speed
though hardcore rts fans may beg to differ
My favorite games for the vogue are
-pocket quake (Quake is my favorite game of all time. I'm going to try the qrally mod on my ppc)
-Pocket Hexen
-Worms world party (I love that i can pass it around in two player mode)
and pocket ufo (I also used to love x-com)

Hey fuzzydeer,
How did you get the key mapping to work in Worms World Party?
It seems to only allow you to assign the "Camera" button to either Jump, Shoot, or Backflip. I only really want the shoot button to work, but it requires that you register all of the keys!
ajones, what emulators are you using that allows you to assign the send/end keys to the controls? i have tried some emulators and have had no luck doing this.
Hi guys. I have installed the utility that switches the number keys to a d-pad. It works with most of the games. I can't figure out how to configure it with Fpsce 0.9.5 and Quake mobile. I need the keymapping for the number keys and the other keys, as they are different from classic PPC keys. Thank you.
Come on anyone got the idea of playing PS1 on the Ipaq, share your experience.
I have installed the latest version 0.09.6 beta and it runs very smooth.
Hi I instaled FPsce 9.6 and it works well but it is so slow !
I tried Tekken 3 from there
but it is to slow.
can you tell me how you set up yours ? and which bios you are using ?
thanks
Hi everybody.
I was looking for an SNES emulator for my Diamond on WM6 for hours and hours... So difficult to find one working ! I've tried a lot.
I've finaly found that one : SNES9xPPC. That's the only one who work on my Diamond. Actually, there no sound (or I didn't find the way to) but all roms I tried are working (even chrono trigger, basic instinc and all 3 DK that have somes problems on DS emulators...).
The display is a bit slow, but almost all right.
No cab file found, just put the exe and play.
Better than nothing, but still wait for a good version of an SNES emulator !
Peace
PS : If somebody find the way to get press Y and B buttun at the same time, I'm listenning to !
lol.
i am just amazed by what You found..prehistory..
believe me, it is bad idea to use that one you found.
just search for HTC optimised pocketsnes( modaco forum ), or ARM/XSCALE optimised pocketsnes( n0p site) - that second group emus will be slow on your htc toy...
you may check morphgear, or snes9xj4u(which is just BEST for portrait mode with ARM/XSCALE machines).
to your information: NEVER use frameskip less than 2.
you will save power and gain gameplay time(..too).
NEVER use sound interpolation function.
NEVER save after turning emu sound option off, if you played with sound earlier(saves may crash pernamently).

you know, ppc emu world still exists..
Hi nothin !
Be sure I've tried all you talk about ! Even I found the nes9xj4u somewhere lost on the web... And no of them worked. Always a crash, most of time when I openned the roms files.
No matter, that one work, I'll wait now for a good version on WM6 wich enable the landcape mode with soft keys, and incha allah the 2player by bluetooth (does somebody hear me ?!)
even, thanks for suggestions of parameters you're right, it work.
PS: a toy you said ?!
Masterall's PocketSNES 1.53
This is the one that has always ran perfectly on my Wizard QVGA. Not sure how it'll run on a VGA device. Better than n0p's version.
http://www.modaco.com/content/smartphone-software-games/237589/pocketsnes-1-53/
Would you mind linking to that version somewhere else, ive always wanted a working snes emulator though ive never found one, but i dont feel like registering on a new forum just for a file
SeanFromSoCal, Pocketsnes 1.53 is not working on wm6 vga...
Recently I have been trying to get a GBA emulator on my TD2. I've searched about it and found some recommended GBA emulators. I tried some of them, but for some reasons, they don't work on my TD2.
The emulators and the problems are as follows:
1.Morphgear
-It can't run certain roms due to insufficient of memory.
-If it can run the roms, the game screen and the controller turn out to be REALLY small.
2.PocketGBA
-A d-pad is needed to play the games but TD2 doesn't have one and so far there is no virtual d-pad for PocketGBA.
It runs smoothly. All I need is a d-pad!!!
3.GBACE
-It can't load ('see') any roms though I have already installed the tgetfile.dll file.
I'm confused whether it's an April's Fool joke...
Does anyone have the same problem?
Can anyone solve any of the problems?
Or is there a working GBA emulator other than those I mentioned?
I hope there will be a way.
Thanks for any reply.
I use MorphGear on my TD2. You can download other controllers from the developer website (I use "Gameboy Advance OSX". It's simple with wide buttons). Then you can resize it to WVGA with any paintingprogram and copy it to the Games/Morphgear/Skins folder. Now the controller should use 1/3 of the screen.
In the settings under Display > Sreen size choose "Auto Scale" and the game fill the other 2/3.
Hope I could help.
Thanks for the reply
Now the game screen is much bigger
But can you tell me how to resize the buttons to WVGA?
I don't quite understand... I'm so noobie with this.
How to?
I can't get on my HTC Diamond 2, I get error 355. When I install with cab I don't get anything... Can some one just post theirs so I can just put it on..
Do you have the description of error 355??
I can't post my cab because I think it has some problems too!
There is always a 'memory insufficient' error and it lags a lot...
Hi all,
I just bought a HTC touch T3330 recently due to my working environment and i have browse around the forum/website searching on how to get the java game to work on my phone.
I installed Esmertec Jbed 20080912.5.1 SD (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486697) & (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655227) and tried running the game. The game loads fine but my touch screen is disabled thus i can't select anything.
How do i make my touch screen workable? Do i need to install other apps 1st before i install the java games?
I am totally new to WM phone and your great help is appreciated.
Thank you
Regards
looks like no one is able to help me =(
Well the games designed for touch phones are compatible. and again Touchscreen of your phone should be supported. Most games do not work on Touch2.
Thanks for your reply..i will try out the game recommended by u on your thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=678848) to see if it works. Just got to find the link to download the game. =)
Last resort is to pm you for the games
