I wish they would make a free version of this since they're not selling it anymore. :crying: I just found out about this app. I've been using it to play Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Retro-Palooza and Streets or Rage Remake on my NVIDIA SHIELD. The 3 day trial is up and no matter if I reinstall it or what, it just knows the trial is done.

It's unfortunate that they only marketed this app as a strategy/rpg app because this can work for cool PC fangames like the ones I just listed. And nobody has been making any effort to port those to Android, so I decided to look for a PC emulator and I found out about this via Youtube.

And unfortunately there's no good knock-offs either. There's just this with a DRM that removes any possible future userbase it has. I really want to play SORR and TMNTRP on the go. And this was the only option....

Such a shame they removed the software, I still have exagear rpg and strategy installed and dread the day they stop working or I lose the apps.

Dozens of hours spent over great games and many more ahead (arcanum I'm looking at you).
[TouchPad General] Borchuck:
I see it is still available in play store...
[TouchPad General] borosky:
What is the Android version of the device on which you are seeing it?

Do you see it when running a search, or do you have to go into my apps?

Personally when I type exagear in the search bar it returns no results. The one way I figured to get the apo back is to sideload the apk from some other source, and then it will link with play store and update. I'm not sure how long this workaround will be working. Moreover, the apps had paid control schemes, I wonder how that's gonna work and for how long..

Using this on a samsung... and following some youtube instrucs I can run a fave game engine on it.. but here is the deal.

Offered versions online are ExaGear 2.9.0, 3.0.1 another modified 4.7 considered buggy and ofc Wine.

The problem with Exagear 2.9.0 it just gives me 'App has stopped working' when you try to enter windows.

Fine let's do 3.0.1 and (4.7) - this is where it works but I want it to READ my SD card and browse files there, Yes this version actually works, you still need to install DirectX and such packages if needed, like I have yet to find how to get OPenGL for a game that uses this setting (other than a dll file)

But amazingly this version reads only emulated/0/Download... not even my other internal mem folders.

Wine can browse and sees all folders even my sd card... but it's an incompatible garbage as all it does is run its Windows RT applications and acts more like a file browser than have any use. So now I see why ExaGear and not the 'main' app Wine.

I read how to modify Manifest.xml to add permission such as Read External Storage, it already has Write External storage. But no matter what I do, it won't see past Download folder. So what is it that Wine sees all folders and who thought its a good idea to just see your Download\ folder?

Is there any modification that can be done to fix this? Since my project gets bigger, need to run it from SD card cant keep it all on internal.

Hi who tried playing DISCIPLES 2 on android? I already installed exagear windows emulator 2020 and already downloaded and installed DISCIPLES 2 (from FREEGOG) but unluckily I didn't run. I tried to run it couple of times, change screen reso, change colour depth, watched some video about this game and followed some tutorial but still it didn't run on exagear. Can someone please help me to play this game again? Thanks in advance
[TouchPad General] xdaprogramm:
Does any1 even run these from External SD card? My findings are like these: I have to use bindfs to mount an External SD folder as Download folder, I use ADB for that - more info in my thread about it. Im trying to mount the same from terminal emulator+Magisk but Exagear still won't see the mounted folder. works only with ADB.

vpaths-list (a file in the Z:\.exagear folder when you launch Exagear) allegedly stores some paths but every time Exagear loads it uses:

/storage/emulated/0/Download/

/proc/

/dev/

I wonder if thats the problem that causes it to use only Download folder.

And does it allow to run openfl/flash apps if I install certain packages?

Ok I made it work with bindfs binding , terminal, Magisk with su permission and using the root mount. More in my other post

We need an update to all these articles...

I tried following the Diablo 2 Evolution,

First off, version 70B or w/e does not exist, so no idea how you got it.

Second, the available version of the game install is NOT in English at all.

Third, I got the availble version installed and recognized in the exa gears emulator and it runs, when I get to the login screen, it jams up and freezes at the checking version stage...?

Could you possibly share your game install with everyone so we can all be working red apples to red apples and not red apples to green apples?

Please and Thank You.

dsound.dll link please

Glad to hear you liked the guide, trying to get all the info in one place about this great app. I'll finish up my OP add the notes about D2, sorry for the late reply been busy:cowboy:

Excellent work I haven't been able to track down a working link for that dsound.dll, I was waiting for the developer to respond. I've got it noted in the OP about additional setup info, hook me up with a link please:highfive:
[TouchPad General] Prfndhatrdofman:
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/e7d7e833d946/Sounds DLL/

Enjoy!

I can throw the Dll file onto dropbox too if you want. but this has the dsound.dll from each version!

Edit: placed the 2.0.4 dll on Drive https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByLbYwQm5pn3LU5nNi1tTUt2VFE/view?usp=sharing

Also, one of the versions of DII i downloaded had D2Res mod in it. So i can play in higher than 800x600..not that I would honestly. 800x600 is running perfect. I'll record a video on my shield tab today and upload it if anyone is interested.

One more thing!!!!

Don't need to rename Diablo II.exe to fallout2.exe

When i did that i got an error that the CD wasn't inserted. It should run fine without the file rename!
[TouchPad General] RolandDeschain79:
Thanks very much for the excellent links I've added them into the OP. Link me to the res mod you used I'll add that to the OP too, wish I had a shield to test on:fingers-crossed:

What version of Diablo 2 are you running? I was just testing LOD out with the rename and it worked fine, I'll try testing it without it.

I'm going to finish making my instructional video for this app one of these days, I link your gameplay video for D2 once we get them done:highfive:
[TouchPad General] Prfndhatrdofman:
You know I've downloaded so many copies of D2 at this point, I don't remember where I got it. You could easily add the Res mod to a clean install of D2.

I've tested both 1.12 and 1.13 D2, both I left the file named as Diablo II.exe and did NOT rename it.

I'm uploading a video now!

Aaron, this is very strange behaviour with corrupted save games.

What device and file system do you have? Did you install Exagear on internal memory card?

What is the language of the game (English or not)?
[TouchPad General] bottad:
Hey guys,

Sorry, I should have posted an update to my earlier post. After contacting the developers of exagear they managed to help me get civilization 3 working properly. To fix it I ended up having to copy the exagear main folder, which is where you put all game subfolders copied from your PC, over to the external SD Card. Once I did that the save games were no longer corrupted.

I'll also share my results with the other supported games I've tried if anyone is curious.

Arcanum: I played around 2-3 hours of it. Works quite well, no crashes or anything really. Only issue I noticed was it slowed down to a crawl when you held a light source. Unsure if not being able to hold a lantern will be an issue somewhere down the road. Had to add in the gamekeyboard app to aid in the controls as well, but that's no big deal.

Heroes of might and magic 3: played around 2-3 hours and encountered no issues what so ever. Plays quite flawlessly.

Might and Magic 6: Played only about 30min of it, encountered somewhat of a bug. When attempting to move your party around and using both fingers at the same time to do so, sometimes the screen gets stuck turning or running in one direction. Somewhat like the arrow keys are being held down so you keep moving without wanting to. Like I mention, it seems to happen primarily when I touch both fingers to screen at same time. So it can be avoided if I ensure to touch one finger to screen at a time. I was playing with the unofficial Grayface patch which may have affected it.

Fallout 2, with killaps restoration project: Played for around 5-6 hours, no game stopping problems, though there are a lot of crashes. Like a lot. I'd say on average I can play about 5-10min before exagear crashes and I have to start it again. Luckily it loads up fairly fast at around 30-40secs so I've just managed with quicksaving every minute or so. I don't know if this is normal or not but like I mentioned it loads pretty quickly, including transitioning to other maps, etc. Other than crashes, only thing I've noticed is some slow downs occasionally, either due to too much going on on screen or seemingly just random. The slowdowns are fairly uncommon thus far though.

Anyway, that had been my experience thus far with exagear. I'd be curious to hear of any other people's results. I've been fairly impressed with it and will no doubt try other games as the potential is there and they've done a great job.

I'm running on a Galaxy Note 3, Android 4.3 (too lazy to update) and rooted.

Cheers, sorry for long post.. ;)

[TouchPad General] RolandDeschain79:
Thanks for sharing

Hi Aaron,

Thank you for sharing your experiences with this great app:cowboy:. Might be nice to update to Kitkat when you have the time, CM11 is pretty solid for performance on my Note2.

I see you've been playing a lot of the restoration project, which is an awesome F2 mod. I've been trying out different combinations of files to try and improve stability. Newer versions of Mashs Hi res patch have issues with the game so I've been testing out older ones with the newer restoration project 2.3.3. Try using this Hi res patch v3.0.2 here and see if it helps with stability at all. Just paste the files into your F2 folder. Have fun and let me know if it makes any difference :highfive:
[TouchPad General] RolandDeschain79:
Thanks again for the links to the sound.dll, looks like performance is solid on your shield:good: You really helped me to get my video finished too. Let me know if you try any other games you want to share info on, feel free to post videos or screenshots:highfive:

[TouchPad General] Prfndhatrdofman:
Thanks! I'll try and test more games as I get time. I was also wondering, which control schemes do you use for D2? I saw in your video you used what looked like Ferrum for tap to click, then something else for when you're using a mouse. Which ones are you using?
[TouchPad General] RolandDeschain79:
Alluminium Controls

Hey I was using the Alluminium controls, works well for D2. Its fullscreen too, let me know how you like it:highfive: I'll add a note in the OP, thanks for mentioning it.
[TouchPad General] Prfndhatrdofman:
Just a suggestion, but for the controls section for D2, I would edit to say:

- Use Ferrum for touch input

- Use Alluminium for OTG or Bluetooth mouse.

I find Ferrum is a good "tap to move" option and Alluminium is more of a traditional input for a mouse. Just a suggestion though :)
[TouchPad General] bottad:
Hey Roland,

So I spent some time trolling the Russian 4pda forums, Google translate works fairly well in understanding people's posts. There is lots of discussion there about exagear, so figured there may be some stuff on troubleshooting. Anyway, long story short, I was able to solve the crashing issue I was having with fallout 2.

All it took in the end was copying the older version of dsound.dll.so (v 2.04) over the newer one and all the crashes went away. I didn't mention in my previous post, but I followed your instructions for getting on their beta test so am at the most current version of exagear, thanks!

If anyone else is experiencing a lot of crashes on fallout 2 this may fix it:

Copy an older version 2.04 of dsound.dll.so (attached it as a zip file) over the one which is at this path location (may be slightly different depending on Android version):

/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.eltechs.erpg/files/image/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/wine/dsound.dll.so

That fixed all my crashes. Also, I noticed some cursor issues, like always getting out of sync. If you edit f2_res.ini and change the value for this line to 1:

ALT_MOUSE_INPUT=1

Changing that fixed the cursor going out of sync.

I was able to play for about an hour with no crashes and cursor never went our of sync. Pretty sweet.

Anyway, hope it helps someone.

Enjoy!

[TouchPad General] RolandDeschain79:
Hi Aaron,

Awesome post man thanks! I've tested this out now it does fix a lot of issues I was having with my HP TP crashing with F2 and sound distortion on my Note 2. Doing this will change the default sound implementation for all the games you play. I've added a note in the troubleshooting. Nice trolling there, please let me know if you find any outer tips and tricks I'll add it to the guide:highfive:

Troubleshooting:

Sound Distortion and Crashing issues:

-If you experience sound distortion or frequent crashes while playing games like Fallout 2, then you may want to use the older Exagear Strategies 2.0.4 sound lib implementation. This will be slower to run but more stable overall(Recommended for HP TP). Newer versions of ExaGear use direct sound interfaces between wine and Android, which is more efficient but not currently as stable. Therefore changing the dsound.dll lib to version 2.0.4 can help to avoid crashes and fix sound distortion. You should backup or rename the original file, alternately you could reinstall the app to default the file.

Download the older 2.04 of dsound.dll.so here

Extract the zipped dsound.dll.so file then copy and paste it over the one on your device in the following location. Note: The location may vary depending on your device and Android version.

/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.eltechs.erpg/files/image/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/wine/dsound.dll.so

I've also modded the Fallout 2 High Res patch 3.06 package to have the mouse fix. I'm still testing stuff out, If you've got time make a fresh install and see if the mouse is fixed by default now. Thanks for input this thread it getting better all the time, great to have all the info in one place:highfive:

Fallout 2 Restoration Project Install Guide:

-If you wish to play Killaps Fallout 2 Restoration Project with Exagear RPG then do the following.

1) Download and Extract the manual Restoration patch(latest version Here), open the folder.

2) Open the "main" folder and copy and paste these files into your Fallout 2 install directory. (yes to overwrite the files)

3) Open the "Windows 95-98-ME" folder and copy and paste these files into your Fallout 2 install directory. (yes to overwrite the files)

4) Open the “Batch_work’ folder and copy and paste these files into your Fallout 2 install directory. Run the "f2.bat" file (A window will popup, wait for it..)

5) Next this is EXTREMELY important, in your Fallout 2 install directory delete a file called "patch000.dat"

6) Download and extract Mash’s older resolution patch Fallout2 Hi-Res Patch v3.06 here: Paste the contents of the folder into your fallout 2 folder and replace the files. This also fixes the Sync issue with touchscreen mouse.

7) Download and extract my custom Fallout cfg files here then copying and paste it into your Fallout directory. These config files correct the game path for the sound data files.

Star wars galactic battlegrounds GOG Playable

I was able to launch and play Star wars galactic battlegrounds GOG version, just needed to add the sound.dll:cowboy:

Can someone help me set-up Red Alert 2?

I've browsed through the 4pda.ru forums and it IS possible to get it running, but when I try it just crashes when it tries to run the .exe file.

I've installed the game on C:\Westwood\RA2, copied over the RA2 folder to the Exagear folder, and tried to run through numerous settings.

Next I tried to place the dsound file in the game folder and the dsound.dll.so in the /wine folder ( but i had to manually create that wine folder for some reason )., however I got the same result.

Do you think I may be copying the files wrong or missing some?

[TouchPad General] RolandDeschain79:
What device and version of Android are you using?

Hey what device and version of Android are you using? I gave it a try and was able to launch the game without modifying anything, I tried both ExaGear RPG and Strategies. However when I got into the game the screen was black and just hung there. Try trolling the forums and see which patched version worked. Sometimes using a cracked exe helps too.

As noted the location for the file could vary and creating it won't get it found by the app. You may wish to reinstall the app and get everything back to default. Let me know if you find the info and I'll note it in the guide, have fun:cowboy:

Extract the zipped dsound.dll.so file then copy and paste it over the one on your device in the following location. Note: The location may vary depending on your device and Android version.

/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.eltechs.erpg/files/image/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/wine/dsound.dll.so
[TouchPad General] KeeleyToy:
Hey, I managed to make it work. Turns out it was the files I was using for RA2, though I think you found the files I've used. Theres a noCD one floating around, just put into the Exagear folder and you're good to go. Nothing speical. Not sure about the missions as I'll use ift just for skirmishes, but it runs fine. The menu's lag a bit, but once you start, it's good.

Yuri's Revenge however takes an extremely long time to load, but once again, in the game it's playable. A bit too laggy for my tastes, but maybe I'll find a way to make it run faster.

The .dll's I found just made the game laggier.

Hi RolandDeschain79,

I got Age of Empires: Rise of Rome working. Unfortunately the minimap is blank (black) which makes navigating very difficult. It looks like the Star Wars game has the same issue as the map appears blank in your screenshot. Have you got the minimap in the bottom right displaying?

Jagged Alliance 2 on ExaGear RPG

And now ExaGear is fully compatible with 64-bit devices (like Nexus 9, HTC One M9, LG G Flex 2 etc).

What else is new? We made more flexible payment options.

As you know emulator is free to use for three days after installation. After that period in order to continue you should select one of the following options:

Choose controls package and buy it. In this case you pay once and use selected controls package for unlimited time. Note that each controls package is paid separately!

Activate the subscription for all controls packages of ExaGear Strategies and ExaGear RPG. In this case you initiate payment for the first month and can use all controls packages of ExaGear Strategies and ExaGear RPG for a month. Starting from the second month, you will automatically be charged. Successful charge extends the subscription for a month. If you cancel the subscription you will not be charged automatically starting from the next month, and you will have access to the subscription until the end of the current (paid) months.

We should try to run. Thanks for the game, did not know about it)
[TouchPad General] Borchuck:
Thanks for answer. I've tried this game but it don't start, only showing info about something missing. I can't figure out what is missing because I have legal copy of this game and it run perfectly on my pc... Will locale can causing this (I live in Poland)?
[TouchPad General] Borchuck:
I'm receiving something like this:
[TouchPad General] TITAN-23:
Age of Empires: Gold and Civilization II should be on the list
[TouchPad General] Hellgha:
The last beta version, you can also download in my group VK ExaGear Mobile.

Tests have shown that just dsound.dll can be copied to the folder with the game, in which you need this sound.

Attach a log file x86-stderr.txt, located in the root of the sd-card, after getting this error. Also specify what settings to run game was launched.

Please attach screenshots of your run and configure run.

And Sid Meier’s Civilization II : Test of Time 1.1 already exists in the list.
