this page is of ps3 controller. I need keyboard of cel, not ps3.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

after the update the movies doesn't work and also the key mapping, can some1 post the link to the last lib.so please ?

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

There's no need to update if you were using jflatt's lib, just download it again if you did.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

do you remember which page was jflatt posting it ?
edit : its in the wiki and everything is working now :)

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Attached for you :)

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I tried to get Worms rotated again. It calls dlopen to load it's own libGLES_CM.so, so the LD_PRELOAD trick isn't working and the overridden gl functions never get called. I can intercept the dlopen calls, but then what? It would be nice to intercept the dlsym calls, but is that even possible? Would it be possible to LD_PRELOAD an all new .so library and substitute libGLES_CM when its linked in dlopen?

Hi, I just found some games ... like Thunder Racing 2 and others ... I'm in. deb. I install them on the phone ok. But when I try to run I do not open the game! I can someone help me?
Thanks in advance!

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Yeah you can, and if you the happen to forward the call to libdl's dlsym with RTLD_DEFAULT it should automagically search in the preloaded libraries as per usual.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Whilst most people here would agree that any and all information that can be shared to help new users navigate their way around their N900s is a good thing... Advertising your own blog with preenv install instuctions in favour of Maemo.org and the very threads in which the process was conceived, could be seen as giving the flying finger to all of the hard work achieved by the members of the forum.

That said though, keep up with the good work with spreading the word with one of the greatest mobile phones evarrr and remember to give kudos the other peoples work, for now though I will stick with TMO.

Don't run it as root

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I have problem with forcerotation of cssu on preenv. the jumpoclock is portrait by default but when the phone is on portrait mode the preenv rotate again. is there any workaround? thanks

sorry for my english

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

SDL applications (this includes all of the applications run under Preenv) will never work under forced portrait mode -- unless some changes are done to the SDL library.

So the only workaround so far is to exclude SDL applications from any "forced rotation", which I'm not sure it's even possible at this point.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I have programmed a simple ui to do the keymapping(using pygame).Yes I know it's a little #OLD(buggy and messy). But worth sharing.Will fix the bugs ASAP.
I have also compiled it too to make the execution easier.To execute it,type(in your N900 or #Now Works(a PC) with pygame installed)
And to include your own screen shot,replace yours with the ss.png file.
After you have done with it, you will see you have a .sh file with your exename with all the configs written.To execute it type:
@jflatt:Any chance for worms?(Sorry for asking repeatitly)
How many times you have to repeat this?:p
Maybe this program can help.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

UPDATE:Almost all of the bugs have been fixed:) . Now it's stable enough to be announced to the public. Also remember to hold the shift key to write capital letters and to hold the Fn key to write numbers.
EDIT:Fixed the bug "App sweeps the file on exit", I think that was the last of them.
EDIT:There is a newer version containing some improvements such as:you don't have to hold the Fn key to enter number of the mouse any longer and some fixes to make it compatible with PC.I will upload the version here,if it's stable enough, then will upload it to extras-devel.Also don't forget to chmod +rwx the file if needed.
EDIT:Compiled file in the new version doesn't work.Use this command instead:
Also don't forget the capital "K", otherwise, it's working correctly.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Anyonr know if Super Jump works ?

does anyone own a deb or ipk file of this game?

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

i have found the following games:

paratrooper
skyclimber
uflip
flashcards

all the games are in .ipk and i cant extract the folder because i dont have a pc and there is no 7-zip app for the N900.

can someone extract them for me or convert them to deb files?
thx

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Ok solved.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Can somebody help me ?
I stuck at the point where i have to type chmod a+x filename

what is the file name?

i only know the name of the game folder.

i try to install skyc.imber.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

use filebox and look into the game folder to know the game name, don't forget to chmod 777 [folder] and [subfolder]

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

The game folder contains the following folders:

1.app
2.images
3. stylesheets

and the following files :

appinfo.json
framework_config.json
icon 256x256.png
icon.png
index.html
sources.json

the first step is to copy the folder to home/user done
2.open the game folder in xTerminal done
Now i have to write in xTerminal:
chmod a+x filename

what is the file name ?

if someone could convert the ipk file to deb it would be easier.

i have attached the ipk file if so you can help me better.

just rename the file extension from .zip to .ipk

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

You cant play this type of games with preenv(no executable on this games).It seems to play using web browser on palm pre. So try other games.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

oh no wonder they arent listed in the compatibility list.

is it possible to play those ganmes in microb?
thx for help.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

No. The Pre browser is very different from MicroB by that there arent as many APIs accessible to the applets. The game most probably uses the accelerometer, which MicroB can't offer unless it gets a bunch of modifications.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

I looked at it again last night, but am not any closer than I was before.

At first I though it was just the dlopen/dlsym functions that needed bypassed, but it seems to go even deeper than that. I was able to trace all dlopen/dlsym, but then those stop after it calls dlopen on libgles_cm.so twice. I think one is SDL loading libgles_cm and then the app loads it again. I don't know if that even makes any sense. But now that I think about it, maybe I should trap dlclose also.

On a whim, I trapped eglSwapBuffers, and those started hitting way after the dlopen/dlsym madness. I tracked it way down into the egl calls but there's nothing built into egl to handle rotation or scaling.

Also once it starts making egl calls, I can't piggyback and throw in any gles1 functions. It will report an unresolved symbol, so does that mean that it overrode some sort of dlopen/dlsym behaviour with regards to the RTLD_NEXT/RTLD_DEFAULT flags? I'm starting to believe it is a glesv2 application that does some initialization in glesv1.

The SDK that its built on uses config files in the form of app.icf. If it finds that file in the current directory, it can grab rotation and resolution from it. Unfortunately, since the .s3e file has an icf compiled in, it won't allow the configuration. If the .s3e file were hacked so that it couldn't find it's built-in config it could be customized, but that's a terrible solution.

This one is tricky, it seems to use every library out there.

I do eventually plan on changing the whole gconf database layout, just as an fyi, if javispedro doesn't beat me to it.

Also, I wired up the PS3 dualshock right analog stick primarily to support looking around in nova. I forgot one fundamental thing though, it really shouldn't be analog stick behaviour. Once the stick returns to center, the looking follows and snaps right back to where I was. Back to the drawing board :(

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

X-Plane default works, with the only problem being no zoom in/out (i.e. no multitouch).

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

Could you please post your Right analogue stick NOVA update anyways? It sounds like my style of gaming controls

Thanks

Edit: scratched that, I have just realised what you mean... No good if the game still points you facing north heh? Keep up the good work :)

Don't worry about this as we can use control scheme 3 that use analog on the right to look.So post the update to edit the script to control scheme 3.
One more question.
Does n900 recognice R2&L2 buttons as analog buttons or just normal button? If we can use the as analog then we can use it in nova to change weapons.

Keep up the good work jflatt

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list
 

They are analog, even the dpad, circle, square, etc are analog. It's a pretty cool controller. The only ones that are normal pushbuttons are the start and select in the middle and I think the analog stick center clicks. Is the weapons change a sliding motion? I haven't played it much.

On a side note, I can finally affect the Worms screen and actually do something by overriding dlopen flags. I can inject a glViewport call when it runs eglSwapBuffers. I can get the screen anywhere I want it, but I still can't get the damn thing to rotate.

Yes you touch the weapon (upright screen) and then you slide your finger to change. When you have ready the second analog patch please upload it and i will create script for control scheme 3(two analog on for move and one for look)
