Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list

Ok, I have made some digging to get Settlers work with save and save space in /home.

First off be shure to get the right IPK, around 180 MB. There are an IPK package that is only 70 MB, that doesnt work.
To save space (gamefiles are total around 400 MB) in /home/user, you can move this file Settlers/sprites.bar to MyDocs and symlink it back.

Code:

ln -s /home/user/MyDocs/preenv/settlers/sprites.bar /home/user/webos/com.gameloft.app.settlers/Settlers/sprites.bar

That way you will save 350MB.
Actually that would be possible with other games that contains big files.

Next, to be able to save game you have to change rights on Settlers/Save. (as root)

Code:

chmod 777 -R /home/user/webos/com.gameloft.app.settlers/Settlers/Save

I thinks thats it. And I hope I got the code right.

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list

Do You have any idea how to jump over first obstacle at the begining of n.o.v.a.?
I have same problem with Assasin Cread.

Seems i need to run and jump. Impossible without multitouch?

I'm not programmer myself but do you think it would be possible to code some background program that would emulate touching predefinied area on the screen via hw button?

It could have similar interface to accelomote.

do you think it is possible?

Same here - what exactly is preenv - is it an application to run Gameloft (and similar) games?

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list

it's to run games for webOS to be exact (i.e Palm Pre/Pixi)

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list

Something is wrong about The Settlers and Asphalt 5.

I'm using 180 mb version of Settlers, still It crashes on start with a SDL_Quit. Also tried chmodding, root privs and starting it via Xterm. Here's appinfo.json:

Quote:

{
"id": "com.gameloft.app.settlers",
"version": "1.1.1",
"vendor": "Gameloft",
"type": "game",
"main": "Settlers/Settlers",
"title": "The Settlers",
"icon": "icon.png",
"requiredMemory": 90
}

Also did the Asphalt 5 trick. Before symlinking, It was crashing at Loading screen, now It crashes after the "Touch to start race" screen.

NFSU, Sims 3 and many others are working good, so I think something is wrong about my games or some dependency is missing, I have no idea which one, ofc.

MD5Sum - The Settlers 1.1.1 (.ipk): 7ec3cde6e96a27aa1aba4d64e208aa8f
MD5Sum - Asphalt 5 1.0.3 (.ipk): bd64ceb183c3d5c6a9e675d9f0ae3e8a

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list

Ah, I fixed the problem with "Blades of Fury"
For those that encountered

Code:

PDL: Application asked for device ID, giving 0000

You need to chmod 777 for the 2 files in .../blades/blades/

Code:

"data.sav"

"progress.sav"

You may need to create them.

I got some graphic glitches though. Had "Failed to initialize libosso" in the xterm, don't know if it's related. If someone can figure out, please tell me.

I could not get the desktopgen to work, so i did chmod 755 on settlers executable, maybe thats why the game closes...

on what files should i add chmod 777, only on the executable?

Suddenly It's now working :confused: Now It sometimes crashes, sometimes not, but always crashes If I touch the screen instead of waiting for it to start the race itself.

@AgogData
I think so, didn't try. :| If doesn't work, try it with -R option. (chmod -R 77...)

http://wiki.maemo.org/Preenv/FAQ#Sav...Docs_folder.29

Enter preenv and cd into the game folder:

$ preenv
$ cd game-folder

Become root and use desktopgen to delete game icons:

$ root
# preenv
# desktopgen -r appinfo.json
# exit
# exit

Now you can delete the game folder itself:

$ cd ..
$ rm -r game-folder

Re: Preenv webOS games compatibility list

Ok first of I just wanted to know if theres a way of running these games for the internal memory without using system links?
I figured that its just a matter of having the right "permission" but anyone in the know will guess that I'm a bit of a noob so it could just be impossible.

Also I read a few posts that only really touched the subject, but I was wondering is it theoretically possible to run webos apps using preenv.

It's totally possible. I was able to jump over the obstacles in the tutorial level in NOVA and am now on level 3. It wasn't easy but if you get a running start and then clearly let go of the dpad before you jump it works.

preenv will only let you execute WebOS apps that were written with the native SDK, and not the older pre-library specific applications such as Foursquare, Spotify, or Pandora.

The games binaries need to have an execute permisssion. The FAT32 formatted file systems on your internal 32GB memory block (/home/user/Mydocs) or on the MircoSD card can't support this kind of file permissions.

But your /home partition (The 2GB space where you can install apps to) is formatted ext2, which DOES support UNIX standard file permissions, so the game binaries need to live there.

This is why if you ever copy file to/from the /home partition to MyDocs or your SD card you'll see alot of warnings about not being able to preserve the original file ownership.

i did these steps :

1. 7 zip extracted the .ipk
2. unpacked the data.tar with winrar.
3. used ssh to send it to /home/use/Games/settlers/usr/palm/applications/com.gameloft.app.settlers
4. used chmod -R 777 on /home/use/Games/settlers
5. started preenv and went to /home/use/Games/settlers/usr/palm/applications/com.gameloft.app.settlers and used dektopgen appinfo.json

Gah - people really need to grasp the concept of permissions. You should not be doing chmod -R 777. A much better idea is to do a chown -R user:users on it. That way you simply change ownership of the file to the standard N900 user rather than opening up access to everything. Yes I know its a personal phone not a server - but right is right.
