MAMEC3E Questions - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps

Using it on the phone, have roms loaded up on it, starts up fine. However, when I select a rom and click on 'play', the screen goes black and the list of ROMs is refreshed, never loading the game. Any ideas?

There is another emulator called PocketCult Mame that might work. It is very old and hasn't been updated since 2006.

Just out of curiousity, how were you planning on playing without buttons?

Have toyed around with it in the past...I played in landscape and used the keyboard buttons. But with the TP2, I think I abandoned playing because of the inability to map buttons...had to use the arrow keys with my right hand (not natural) and left hand for the buttons...

Auto stop prog

Does anyone know of a program that will automatically end running programs after a set time of not being used.
I don't have the facility of touchscreen buttons now like with my old xda's, etc and would like to set the Snap to end stuff after a few mins of not being used instead of going through talk manager every time.
Cheers.
The HTC Dash 3G has a nice little feature that if you hit the back key 3 times it will end any running programs that have been sent to the background.. dont know if yours will do that or not but worth trying.
Nope tried that and that didn't work...
Would also like to know if this can be done ?

Wow, I didn't know that!
Hmm...doesn't work with SmartToolkit installed due to the back key being assigned to bring up a "quick" menu.
Just as well, since there is a "Task" button right next to it, lol!

"All Settings" link in Sense, where does it point?

Hi All,
Very weird one this, I hard reset due to installing that virus (3d shoot 'em up thing here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=650393 ) and have come across a strange issue within Sense.
When I press "Settings" in the start menu (or slide across to it within Sense) I get the HTC settings menu, so far so good.
When I press "All Settings" under 'Menu' it opens the 'Connections' window, not the standard Windows settings, if I close the 'Connections' window, it returns me to the HTC settings menu.
Anyone know where I might be able to change the link, or at least find what the 'Connections' link is, so I may track it down please?
sorry. didn't fully read your post.
Half-asleep.
Please ignore me this time.

No problem.
I've managed to display the "All Settings" icon, albeit from within the Start Menu using the registry:
hklm -> security -> shell -> startinfo - change the "hidesettings" to 0.
I've found from the above, that "cplmain.cpl,19" seems to reference 'Connections', so pointing my search toward that at the moment.
Unless anyone else has any assistance?
Just noticed your post and having suffered also at the hands of the 3d terrorist bastards I thought I'd check mine......guess what.......all settings displays just fine, everythings there and opens up, trying to get out of it though is a different story, pressing "ok" just causes a pause, screen flicker and then same settings screen to reload.
Another problem I'm having since that virus is neither the htc music player or windows media player work at all.
ringtone doesnt play either.
Is that another hard reset I hear approaching?

These stories are tragic disappointments... I cannot believe everything that has surfaced from this TROJAN program. It's unbelievable... because here we thought that such a thing would NEVER happen to any of us.
I think more attention should be paid towards this issue... it's a rather SERIOUS inconvenience for a lot of people.
Hmmm not had any issues with this trojan other than it dialling out, although I did switch off the phone as it was half way through it's hilarious attempt at pissing me off. Media player is fine, sms is fine, email fine, rss reader, shares, weather, in fact the phone is now running better than ever
One things for sure, I reckon open market will be hit hard by this, once bitten twice shy so to speak.

[Updated] Dungeon Defenders

How many of you have problems with the game?
It hangs when I start a new game
It actually loads until the part where the character appears on screen and when it loads all the navigational pad and buttons, it hangs
I thought this was updated for SGS2 already?

Yeah...No.
Lemme explain:
The app was updated to work with the GS2,but at first it didn't work properly(Or in my case didn't work at all,like it does for you.Unless you believe that it works like what you describe).It closed just after selecting my character,like when I ran it with CF3D.
Sometime yesterday though a second update was released,that clearly stated that Galaxy S II users should completely uninstall and then reinstall to update.After that ,it does work.It's still buggy though,it lags and it closes randomly sometimes,But hey,it's a first step in the right direction!
When it hangs the music is still playing in the background
Interestingly, the main menu, at the bottom right corner, the version is still 5.0
I already downloaded the 5.3.1 version...

That reminds me of when I tried to play the game on my DHD with the nVidia plugin(didn't know that a Qualcomm version was available,I thought it was Tegra-only).It hanged when first showing the level,music played,but all I could see was a door.Nothing would move.
So,try uninstalling,deleting the files from /sdcard/Adroid/data/com.trendy.ddapp.xxx(don't remember exactly the name) if they aren't automatically deleted,and then reinstall anew from market.Hope that fixes it.
Doesn't work... I uninstall via "Manage Applications" and the folder in sdcard\android\data\com.trendyXXXXXXXX was already removed
Redownloaded via market, wifi-ed the additional files again, also same situation
I don't understand it, if I can play Samurai II, why can't this work.... got CF3D running on nvidia plugin too!

That's the problem!You shouldn't be using the NVidia plugin!The game works with no plugin now.Tegra version has problems for other handsets.
It does work, though your might need to uninstall the app first.
It runs perfect on mine. no shutdowns whatsoever.
Except that after a few waves, the round move cursor gets extremely hot. (near the front face camera).

Good man! Not using plugins solved the problem!
I can confirm the insane heat at the camera area
Freakin hawt!
Yeah. It would have been hotter if not for the heat sink in the phone.
It's a but unnerving pushing intense graphics on the phone though.

There is a new update for DD! 5.3.4... anyone tried it out yet?
This game is poorly optimized. It runs like crap on any phone, even Tegra 2 phones.

Tincore and the ouya

Has anyone been able to set up tincore on the ouya? I was able to get modern combat 4 to work but I'm not able to get the controller to map correctly.

I haven't even figured out how to get the app to come up when I have a game loaded. The 3 button command list seems to need you to have already brought it up once in that app.
If someone can explain how to do that I'd gladly spend some time messing with it.

yeah thats where i'm having my issue
Dev told me I could create a custom command using OUYA buttons, but I couldn't figure it out. He is working really hard on the app and has frequent updates, but no tutorials or help pages. He needs to take a break and show people how to use it a little more clearly. I spent an afternoon working with it and gave up.
I think it would probably work best to do the button mapping on a touch screen device and export it. It will probably still need to be tweaked on OUYA though. I have seen people take interest in the app on other forums only to be frustrated and give up.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
I am trying to figure it out too. I want to put games like subway suffers and temple on the Ouya for my daughter. Tried setting up a profile on my galaxy tab, and it works, sometimes. I can get left to go left once, but then the other buttons, like going right or jumping/sliding doesn't work for a few seconds. Makes it very hard to use.
I had to watch a few YouTube videos before figuring out that you have to name the profile first, then hit refresh a few times, then press a button on your controller to make it appear on the screen. After that you can select what you want it to do. Can't figure out how to make it do a store command though.
I tried making a profile for final fantasy iii as well, but once I hit a fiction, it stayed pursuing that direction after I let go. I think maybe I just haven't found the right option yet.
I see it has an update in the play store, so maybe I will try again.

I have spent a few hours :crying: on this and I seem to be having some success. I have found when configuring stick 0 or stick 1 on the ouya controller, I have to check the box that swaps the X and Y axis along with checking the box to invert the x axis. I have attached a profile for minecraft that seems to be working. Feel free to give it a try (remove the .txt extension when importing).
The developer is flying blind developing for OUYA. He doesn't think he'll recoup his cost in sales to OUYA users. I'm at a loss for why anyone would buy the app right now.
Another thing I'm remembering that really aggravated me when trying the app. It took me quite some time to learn that when configuring the controls you have to click the check mark to register every change.
If someone could create a default controller scheme for the sticks and d-pad, and the home, menu, and back buttons it would be great so we all could build on that. If everyone maps those most basic buttons the same, it will make sharing profiles easier. Then there is the matter of enabling keymapper in game.
If this thread starts generating enough interest the dev will probably pop in for a visit. Then perhaps he can code in a shortcut combo for the controller to open the app in game.

The app was free in the play store when I downloaded it. There is an option to support the dev though a donation which unlocks a couple of features, but the free version supports the features I need. I have been able to map games from the play store once I found out how to use the keymapper. The auto load profile is pretty sweet when it works... I may end up with a profile for every non ouya game and launcher that I installed from the play store ((Netfix and WatchESPN). IMHO using any non ouya app with the ouya controller sucks.

The important feature that is, or was, locked in the free version is analog stick support. For whatever reason in games that natively support the analog stick but nothing else ,Tincore overrides that and then you need to pay to enable it within Tincore in order to map the buttons and use the stick. Since I'm primarily interested in driving and racing game support, that makes it a no go for me until I have a clear understanding of how to map the controls and enable it on OUYA without spending a lot of time and doing workarounds.

Do i just load this up in load profile and then go into minecraft and it will work? I don't play minecraft but I'm wondering if it's that easy.
Almost forgot as for the dev saying that he won't be able to recoup his losses I don't get that. I'm all about supporting a dev but if I supported every dev that had a half working app that I would like to play then I'd be broke. If he makes a paid app with instructions and works on some games I'm all about it

As others have said, one of the major difficulties with Tincore on OUYA is that you need to launch it within game. The apps shortcuts are created for phones our tablets.

Launch the app and import the profile. Once it loads you should see the button layout on the screen and the minecore profile name at the top of the tincore options. From there just click the check mark beside the profile name and the app should be sent to the background. If you close the app with the "X" at the top, the tincore app will not be running and your controller will default back to the standard ouya layout. Next open minecraft and use the touch pad to click play and to create a world. Once the game loads up, you use the control sticks to move/look around.
At first I had a USB keyboard connected to the ouya and to launch keymapper when in a game I would use the vol down/vol up/vol down shortcut to bring up the tincore app. After getting a couple of games working and building a profile for Nova Launcher, I went into tincore settings and changed the shortcut to lunch the app from the default vol keys on the keyboard to buttons o/u/y on the ouya controller and I am able to make changes to the tincore app without the keyboard being connected.
It is late and I rambled on long enough... let me know if you get stuck. Once I figured out the basics of the app it has been easy to configure new button layouts.
besides tincore, anyone try using any other touch to gamepad app like gamekeyboard (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fishstix.gameboard&hl=en) and sixaxis? Tincore is a pain to use with the vague instructions & videos. I'd like to know what kind of success people have had mapping touch controls to a gamepad and on what app.
Hi,
It is soo difficult to find threads lost in different forums.
If people gather in one place we could organize a wiki or something.
I would like to know what do you find difficult to understand. Once you understand the pattern it is all the same I think.
To invoke the app without notification you need to set "Open mapper on sequence". It is a sequence of 3 keys (the 3 can be the same).
select -> select -> select for instance because Ouya does not have volume buttons. If you have a spare button you can set execute function and then on Key you select MAPPER.

Here are a few hints I have found... Make sure auto profile is disabled. Also, when you launch the app from the home screen, use the key sequence that is setup to minimize the app (don't click the check mark or the X to minimize tincore. Once you launch another app you should be able to use the key sequence again to bring tincore back up.

problems with apps

Can anyone try these apps out and see if they work alright, not sure if it's hardware, software or compatiblity between android 7 and the apps.
xe.com (check if you can drag and drop currency correctly, i am on the H990N after drag and drop, the currency seems to disappear, turn off app and back on and it's there.)
Tsum Tsum (sometimes before the green line screen shows, it crashes with a black screen, only showing the home touch button) (another problem is a long pause on the screen just before the actual game allows you to play)
Thanks in advance.
It's probably nougat. Developers haven't had much access yet and it's 64bit now. Send them an email.

When you say dissappear is it same as mine, the moved currency just gone from the screen and a blank space is left.
It will return if you reset the app. Am I correct.

Tested this out on a friends/LG promotors V20, seems like what wing_addict_usa and myself have predicted, it's a compatiblity problem with android 7.0, hopefully those apps get a quick up date.

yep, it's correct, also sometimes black screen crash before the line logo screen shows, or if you touch the animation to speed the game up, sometimes crashes.
I have tested this on a few other V20, wing_addict_usa was also very helpful to help check this out, so it's a android 7 problem and not on individual case, so you don't need to worry, it's not the phone, but the app may need a update to support android 7.
