Re: Apple ][ emulator (surely, I'm not the only one...)
sure. many of the tweaks were just finding a good mapping for the keyboard to be able to access all the keys i needed for what i wanted to run along side using the sixaxis analog controller buttons and analog stick to mimic joystick input, button input, and keyboard inputs i wanted. do a search on rover.sys and mapper.txt for more info on those. Here's a link to the useful (albeit unorganized) thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=35244&page=3
depending on what i wanted to run, i'd also switch the dosbox conf settings regularly such as whether or not to run in fullscreen. many dos games don't have a nice "quit" option, so though running in fullscreen looks nicer, sometimes the convenience of being able to exit easily with the non-fullscreen mode is worthwhile. did you have any particular questions? |

Btw, games that have worked well for me so far (I haven't tested too many) are:
- Alterego (both male and female versions) - Autoduel - Karateka - Rescue Raiders - Ultima I through III (I'm still working on III now, so I haven't tested IV through VI. VII is now available as a native maemo app.) - Wasteland |

i don't want to risk hijacking this thread so i'll make this my last reply about dosbox :) i think I understand your general approach to this and over the weekend i tried the same thing with Armor Alley and it worked great. the missing piece was "switching config files", which i think is a good idea. i'll swap between them depending on games. nothing like watching the game on a nice big TV with the sixaxis in your hands. :) |

does anyone know what the proper CFLAGS are to compile this for the N900? the makefile has CFLAGS for the N800...

Re: Apple ][ emulator (surely, I'm not the only one...)
the apple2 emulator is working much nicer now. i did some changes to it. keyboard didn't work on the n900. it still has a lot of improvements that can be made.
having issues with sound playback now. it just sounds wrong. but the original binary that arnim provided sounded correct (but a bit soft). the new one i compiled sounds louder but the tone seems to be lower and a bit more choppy. |
Re: Apple ][ emulator (surely, I'm not the only one...)
the other problem i'm having now is with keyboard. i can't press the number keys since the Fn button doesn't work. gotta figure out a system for key mapping as i know the n900 has a few keyboard layouts.
good thing is the source code is quite simple and straight forward. bad thing is a lot of stuff is hard coded. it'll take a while to clean up the keyboard stuff. joystick emulation works too but is a bit difficult to control. i also lose the ctrl+backspace capability when joystick emulation is enabled. probably some SDL behaviour that i need to look into. wish me luck :) |
