Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Try libsdl_net1.2 or libsdl-net1.2 the spelling may be the issue, if those don't work, im not sure but try libsdl* to get all of them

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

its apt-get install libsdl-net1.2

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I followed that guide and its working :-) No errors or problems, got it working first try. I put the game folder in /home/user/applications/ as thats where all my other games are stored instead of /home/user/

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

You are:
a ) Either running as root,
b ) Ran too much stuff as root and your system is broken :D

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I wouldn't even bother with nova, I have it installed and runs fine but the only thing is that to play it properly you need multi-touch, however it is still playable but you will only find it harder as you go along when you realise you cant shoot an move abt quick enough by using 1 control at a time.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

i know mate i had it running last week, i just like to install stuff and mess around with the device and learn about what it can do more than anything, i dont really do much gaming if im honest

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I actually like being at a disadvantage online that way when I kill those multitouch bastards I feel good lol bcuz they have it easy and I have a handicap and yet still I can cream them, anyway, playing the single player is tuff yes but with patience and some thought it can be done.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Just my opinion
Best Games so far for me:
1) N.O.V.A.
2) Asphalt5
3) NFSUC
4) Sims3

Driver is a waste of space and time in my opinion.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Can we please stop posting friggin links etc to pirated material. Is it so hard to understand that if you idiots keep doing that, you will get this project crushed. Not to mention the fact that you are violating the TOS of the forums.

Mods how bout a little active administration here.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

may i know how to uninstall?
i deleted the application files but the game icon is still there in the menu and "add shortcut" menu.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Where do you see links to pirated material ? Just asking

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

did you delete the icons first?
DID YOU READ THE FAQ WIKI BEFORE YOU EMBARKED ON YOUR JOURNEY TO USING YOUR PALM PRE GAMES ON YOUR N900 IF NOT THEN THAT'S YOUR FIRST PROBLEM.

SORRY for the CAPS but the prevalent problem is that many people don't READ before they mess with their device then ask questions which have already been answered, I will help you still though, but take note for future reference

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Couple of pages back - links etc and also a post which just gives the name of the site.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Or that yea some cleaning up needs to be done

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

sorry but still with problems. hope you can help me figuring out what im doing wrong, also if its because of the ipk ive download, would you mind posting where to download a good ipk file of Asphalt

I have the same error in the Asphalt5 and turn on the NFS, someone give us some indication of the case .. please.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Excuse me sir but did you read the FAQ? PLEASE READ IT AND YOU OBVIOUSLY DID NOT RUN THE GAME WITH PREENV IF THIS IS A DIRECT COPY PASTE. READ THE FAQ!

Even I a gentle sole is getting irritated by the lack of reading being done. I'm usually really nice guys but seriously read before you post. Thank you

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I still dont know, how to get Driver working :( i dont know where to copy driver.ini, i need to create new folder ?

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I have finally worked out how to Run and Jump in N.O.V.A, but it is still a hit and miss method, I can only do it 3/10 times in a row. Timing is Key.

1, go in to options menu and turn down the sensitivity of the controls. (it helps a little to keep you direction)

2, When running you will notice the virtual D-Stick light up. Run forward and let go of the D-stick, at the very moment the highights of the D-stick turns off tap and release the Jump button and your momentum will carry you forward as you jump. If you hit it too soon/too late then you will either stop in your track or run left.

I have been doing this and with a little practise it will become easier. I have now found the B-Team in the bunker :)

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I tried your method of jumping but I prefer lowering the sensitivity to approx 20% and swing the d pad up and immediately after hitting jump. works for me even without the low sensitivity

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

The process has been fully documented at LEAST 6 times in this thread as well linked to in the wiki. Just do some reading.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

You're welcome to volunteer. I'm tired of babysitting the Pre games threads and their nasty spawn. I have banned many users but the kiddies keep coming out of the woodwork. It would be good if someone who actually gives a damn about Pre games (i don't own any) and is reading the threads about them were also a moderator...

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Is it possible to appoint a Mod, even if temporarily and just for these threads? There are a couple people that can take up the position with ease. I was just wondering.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I can admin this thread if you wish ... I read it fairly regularly. I can understand your frustration at the kiddies. Not what you are here for I know. Problem with idiots its you squash one and two more spring up to take their place.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I also volunteer as an admin for this thread as I'm always reading it.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

yeah, that was the problem.

fixed it.

thanks mate :)

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Yes, I read FAQ, so I installed Assessins, Need for Speed and HerofOfSparta, only with Asphalt5 I have this problem, even I followed the tutorial on youtube, I've also read that several people have this problem but not yet have answers, so again the question formulated.
You do not understand why his annoyance, this is a forum, many people wonder just how to install Preenv and cordially or just someone normally tells you the steps to follow, no hassles.


I follow the following steps to try to run the games, correct me if you do not mind being wrong.

sudo gainroot

preenv

cd /home/user/Games/com.gameloft.app.asphalt5/Asphalt5

home/user/Games/com.gameloft.app.asphalt5/Asphalt5 # chmod +rwx Asphalt5

home/user/Games/com.gameloft.app.asphalt5/Asphalt5 # ./Asphalt5

then I ask already indicated error.

Thanks

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

You missed the many places in this thread that said not to run as root

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

then?
As I should run?

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Just run it while not rooted that is all. Only sudo gainroot to chmod the executable file. U can try exiting and re entering and then cd to the game folder then run preenv and continue to test the game

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

run as root "desktopgen appinfo.json"
and then launch the games from your app menu

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

This instructions has CRASHED my device...

YOU SHOULD NOT chown the /usr folder!!!

This will result in needing a reflash.

For the Asphalt thing just make sure you don't chown your /usr folder. Chown the /usr folder within /preenv! My mistake for not reading through the whole sections :/

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Guys, pls read read the updated compatibility wiki (http://wiki.maemo.org/Preenv/Game_Compatibility) if you are still having some trouble with asphalt, works if you follow the instructions carefully, follow the first half of the 2nd link in asphalt5, if u had already installed the game and symlinks created.

hope this helps

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Indeed, this is incredibly bad advice. Don't do this at home kids!! Shows how a little knowledge is dangerous in the wrong hands.

And Renaldo wants to be a mod!!!

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Your post made me smile, thank you :)

On another note, What are the chances of getting Palm Pre's apps to run on the n900 if they are webOS?

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I tried Castle of Magic and it works without problem. Although jumping can be very difficult, but it's playable.. Maybe it's better with touchscreen though.. But why is it listed as unplayable on the compatibility list?
