my cab doesn't seem to install a start menu shortcut (should be under games)

i will fix it in the next release..

meanwhile you can find the program on \storage card\program files\games\morphgear or program files\games\morphgear

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] thimiost:
guys you have done a great job with this emulator

do you think it can be perfect?

is what we see trully multitouch or is it emulation

whatever the case today i plyed donkey kong country and i enjoyed it very much

it was almost like a real joypad
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] methree:
Portrait mode should be pretty good, if you are planning to re-install come back here first for the latest version first.

Then I would recommend adjusting the frame skip to around 6 or 7 if you have lag issues. Oh and turn off sound in morphgear.

I find I can play a lot of games almost perfectly even in Landscape mode, hope it works for you.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] bramgg:
very noob question but how do I play games with Morphgear? I want to try this out but 'don't know how. Is there a tutorial or manual online? any help would be great!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] techdave:
I'm not sure what I did yesterday, but now all of a sudden, all of my Snes games runs really smooth on my Leo WITH sound (Chrono T, Super Mario, Donkey Kong, etc). or Maybe it's the multithreaded sound starting from 0.7 that made all the difference.

These are my settings:

Global Settings:

- Driver Auto

- Enable Sound

- CPU Throttle set to Low to preserve battery

Snes

- Screen size: Auto Scale

- Sound: Enable sound, emulate, 16-bit samples, High 44khz

Speed/Memory:

- Frame Skip 0

- Auto Sync

--

What I did yesterday:

- Installed version 0.8.

- Installed HD2/Leo 3D Driver Patch v1.1

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5127466#post5127466

Version 0.8 is really fast for me. Still a bit of problems registering multitouch, but I believe we'll get there.... keep up the good work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] d3l1:
I haven't experienced any lags, it's just that I can't e.g. steer and accelerate at the same time. only one press is recognized. as if there's no multitouch. despite that it's fine, haven't tried sound yet. But unless I can really play (run and jump, not one or the other but both at the same time) it's pointless :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] spajdr:
Tried Demons Crest, my favorite game from Capcom but im not sure how to make a jump, none of buttons does it, but overall, speed was constant and sound was just like original.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] spajdr:
Also tried Super Mario All-Stars, but it just dont work at all, i mean i can move but when i need to jump, it never really works, its too random, sometimes it even moves in wrong direction, totally unplayable im afraid, at least for these jumping games.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] DMAND:
WOW! The multithreaded sound really improves things! GBA games still have a high FPS with sound enabled (although sometimes the sound can be unbearable, mainly morphgears fault I think)

But as others have mentioned multitouch seems to be worse in this version, seems to be a lot more picky on where you touch and also seems to register alot more mistouches/wrong buttons (using portrait, WVGA Dredd67 pad)

Going to have to set up a paypal account just so I can donate for your efforts :p

Keep it up
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] blutz:
super Mario all starts works fine for me (SNES ROM)

multitouch works great with arrows + A jump,.. looks like other key combinations are disabled by the game itself as I can see the multitouch reads fine, but I'll have a look again for the next version
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] teflon-don:
I just watched the video about nokia n900, where you can play emulator games via Wii Controler. How about playing games on HD2 via PS3 controller (bluetooth) :):):)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] spajdr:
Actually you are right, its not that bad with Mario, but still, its just too over sensitive, even if i enabled lower sensivity thru some hack, mario randomly running to left or right or right, even if i dont press correct button for that. It would be great if d-pad would be on one side of screen and rest of buttons on other side.

teflon-don : that would be great as alternative :) since i got Wii.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NLS:
I have a better (and easier) idea.

Peace on Earth.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hyellow:
I'd like to see games played orientated west,so we have some hardware buttons on the right. this way, we'd only use the screen for movements, while the hardware buttons can be set to any action button, so you could still run and jump or slash at the same time. But since it's quite hard to assign any other actions to these buttons, i think it'll be troublesome.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] neil_swann80:
I have a zeemote JS1 bluetooth controller. It works nicely with the standard Morphgear, but not the "Leo Tweaked" version from this thread. It works in the menus, but not in game!

Any chance of fixing this? The zeemote just mimics hardware buttons. Has hardware button functionality been removed from in game?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] blutz:
disable virtual pad in the settings
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] neil_swann80:
This hasn't worked. I've noticed also the hardware buttons on the leo can be mapped for example in the 'iNes' settings, but do not function during game play. I guess if this is fixed, the zeemote will also then function.

If you can fix this, there's a guaranteed drink (aka donation) in it for you!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] blutz:
in my version hardware buttons supposed to be disabled when virtual pad is in use, but i guess it isn't working correctly, wait for next version
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] darken_rahl:
whow, this is great! with the latest version i play chrono trigger with sound @ 60 fps.

great work and thx!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kvap:
very nice work :)

but i am having some problems with the Marat GBA emulator, cannot edit any of the settings... anyone else having these problems?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hojlind:
on the snes add on i cannot change the dropdown menu settings. for example screen size. i cant change from 100% to 150% or fullscreen. so you are not the only one having that problem :)

EDIT: nevermind i found out that i just had to use the keys on the keyboard to navigate around :) just like it says on the front page ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bakedbread:
**EDIT

so i figured out how to install the emulator and ROM..

but i find the keypad with (WVGA-MT-Dredd67 v0.3.zip ) the HD2 and multitouch isnt working for me

When im playing (for example: mario), If im holding "Right" and want to jump with "O", the keys wont register

am i doing something wrong here?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hojlind:
Have you tried pressing on the top op the screen. If you use landscape mode it is just the side that points upwards :)

if you want to play in landscape mode you just need to press the settings button --> global settings --> orientation --> east :)

regarding the keeypad not being shown correctly. do you mean that it is on one side of the screen? if so that is because of the dimensions of the pad, (afaik) and what you want to do is to use the original wvga pad that comes with the emulator :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bakedbread:
thanks man!

ahah sorry for spamming the board too :P

but yeah, it seems like the multitouch keypad isnt working out too well for me..

its not registering the D-pad with another key too well

Is this how it should be?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hojlind:
it seems that the only multitouch option available on the standard pad is direction-pad + a. so far it have been though of as a build in limitation, which does not have anything to do with the pad itself. I have an idea that this may not be how it is. i have just finished a rough and early version of a game pad that I am designing, (primarily for the snes emulator) and I can tell that my directional-pad + b works very well too :) I am going to post a thread in a moment so that other may download it, and give feedback to whether or not they find it better than the original (personally i do ;) )
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Baccchus:

I've downloaded MorphGear and installed the SNES9x console, but don't know how to get games to work? The game is in an unknown .7z format or something like that.... I've tried opening from MorphGear but get a message stating MorphGear was unable to open the file- any help would be appreciated.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mouki_9:
download 7zip to extract the files --> google, it's freeware :P
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Lord.Nibbler:
Wow Blutz, congrats ! This is a piece of real amazing & cool stuff :):):cool:

I have two little remarks :

- Would it be possible to add a setting to add an horizontal offset value to the game screen area ? This would allow to give more space for the direction pad and less for the buttons (please see the attached image). This value could be even automatically read from the gamepad skin file, which would allow to easily create and change between several gamepads without having to wander inside the settings too much :rolleyes:

- Also it seems that I have found a bug in the virtual gamepad : I tried to play SNES Puzzle Bobble :) and I experience parasite or ghost buttons actions :(

By example quite often after sending a bubble with the "A" button, then only using the "right" and "left" direction buttons, two or three unwanted bubbles are sent despite the fact I only touch the left side of the screen. Also after several "right" button press even if I hit the "left" button the gamepad still send two or three parasite "right" events.

And this happens even if I wait some time between pressing the keys ... so it is not like some queued events are automatically late dequeuing themselves ... the events seems to wait that I hit a button to dequeue. As if they are queued but they dequeue only when another input is done...

Cheers,

Nibbler.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hojlind:
@Bacchus

you could also try winrar which is a great program. it can extract far more than just 7zip, for example zip and rar files.

im not fully sure i understand what you mean, but as far as I understand you want to map the buttons along the sides of the screen right? instead of a traditional pad?

if yes, then yes im more than just pretty sure that can be done, and it wont really take much work. I can take a look at it sometime in the near future if you want me to :)

regarding the bugs in the standard gamepad then i agree with you, and you are not the only one with that problem :) My own homemade pad doesnt seem to have that problem, so if you want you could try that out instead :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Lord.Nibbler:
No I wasn't clear enough, sorry... :o The pad I used in the image already exists so no need to create it, thank you :)

Look at the image I posted in my previous post :

- the pink area represents the area where the game is displayed

- the top of the image shows how the game area is now implemented in morphgear : centered in the screen the space for the pad is equally wide on the left and the right of the game area.

- the bottom of the image shows how I would like it to be : not centered but shifted on the right (by a value we could set in settings or inside the skin file)

- this way the visible gamepad area with the d-pad on the left of the pink area would be wider and the right area with the buttons would be narrower. This way we could have more space to display the directional pad on the left and less space for the buttons because they didn't need so much space.

I hope that it is more clear now :)

Cheers,

Nibbler.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] methree:
I have noticed this also, it is quite annoying. I didn't noticed that in the v0.4, which is the previous version most like.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Baccchus:
Thank you all for the replies I'LL try this out tomorrow :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hojlind:
Ahh now i understand ;) Unfortunately i don't have a single clue how to do this :P I think thats a thing for blutz :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Lord.Nibbler:
Yes you're right ! :) the v0.4 doesn't have the issue :cool:

Thank you for the hint !

yep :)

Also two other wishes blutz :

- would it be possible to prevent the phone to go to "sleep mode" while morpgear is open

- would it be possible to override the light sensor (as the d-pad is just near the light sensor I always have the screen than dim and then go brighter and so on ... which is a little bit annoying)

Thank you :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jamuk2004:
Thanks again for this Blutz,

0.8 gives a HUGE performance increase! I can now play starfox with sound at full speed or more :D

The only thing now is to improve the control input a bit but anyway, very good job!:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hojlind:
concerning the input you could try the pad he has linked to in his opening post if you play in portrait mode. if playing in landscape mode, then why not try out my game pad :P

link is in my signature ;) and if not, it should be on one of the first pages on this forum :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Tsury:
How do I enable full screen in GBA games?

Also the sound is very messed up...

Thank you, apart for that it works great :P
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jamuk2004:
I am actually using your pad have modified it to work with Genesis as well :D This was a massive help in controlling the screen, so a big thank you to you as well!

Im still having the occasional problem where when you touch an area of the screen, it will hold that area for too long and cause you to crash in racing games, same happens in fpsece
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] sibinson:
i found that make the screen size slightly smaller than the screen on landscape so you can see some of the keys make it so much better, i can actualy control the plane in pilot wings, what would be cool if there was a way to map the volume buttons to work as the L R buttons on the top of the controler if you get me. then mario kart would be excellent again.

Many thanks for the app and many thanks to the new gamepad skins
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] sibinson:
oh a quick question on the home page you can download some more gamepad skins, but they need to be enlarged, how do you do this. is it a easy fix???

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] p3eps:
Great work so far...

I just tried playing Super Mario World which was my favourite game on the SNES! It runs very smoothly, but I have a problem that I can't press A for jump while pressing right on the control pad. It works with the B button and the X button - just not the A button.

I'm not if it will work to hold X and press A to do a fast run and jump?

I look forward to seeing your progress...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hojlind:
I'm glad you like it :) Concerning the problem about touching empty space, then yes it is very annoying, but as far as I know it is a problem in morphgear it self :( I've tried to fill the screen as good as I could to avoid this problem :)

BTW what do you think about uploading the modified pad to my thread? To gather

the pads in the same place :) Full credit to you of course ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] qweac:
I'm not getting any sound. What am I doing wrong? I have sound enabled in both the general settings and in the snes settings. Thanks! :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Smygflik:
Im getting no sound either and multi-touch aint working on the latest version. Except that it runs great.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] DMAND:
Actually Multitouch on 0.8 seems to work pretty well (depending on the gamepad) I recently tried having ago at making one after trying this pad http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=602276&highlight=morphgear purely because it only has the standard butons (no extra buttons to map multitouch)

To my surpise multitouch worked just fine without the extra buttons!!

Although playing around I seem to have spotted a bug? where basically if you click on a non assigned area of the gamepad (ie white area) the last proper button you press seems to be pressed! Therefore leading to a lot of mistakes.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hojlind:
You dont need any extra buttons as you just said ;) The tweaks that Blutz have made, means that all gamepads automatically support multi touch, and that you dont need any special/extra buttons, like for example the game pad that blutz links to have.

The thing about pressing somewhere where there is no buttons, is a known bug, and we just have to life with it I guess :( Hopefully some one will figure out a solution for this (Go Blutz :P )
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] blutz:
just wanna let you know I'm still alive, just little busy studying :cool:

I'm reading all your comments, and taking notes for next round of improvements when I'll have the time.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] methree:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mideel:
just wanted to thank you too dude, just tried playing pokemon trading card game with the 0.8 release, its running very smoothly, but I have to say this game doesnt need multitouch at all. But I can play it perfectly with sound, no lags. Thats all I need at the moment =)

But one thing is terrible, the battery-drain of morphgear.. from 100% to 0% in approx. 3 hours :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hojlind:
Battery is fine at me? I just played for around 1 hour straight, with music on the first half hour, and my battery only went down about 15 - 20%
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mideel:
what tha..

just a lil' checklist of my settings so I can find out if something is wrong with them

- global settings:

driver: auto

frame rate stats: yes

disable fullscreen: no

orientation: east

enable sound: yes

use virtual pad: yes

tactile feedback: no

polling method: no

custom file dialog: yes

cpu throttle: off

thread priority: normal

do u have the opengl driver installed on your hd2?

which rom version are u using?

would be nice if you would tell me your config, maybe theres something wrong with mine.

But I have to say that my hd2 is only 4 days old, so maybe the battery did not reach his full power yet.. but the difference is still very noticeable Oo
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hojlind:
my HD2 is now exactly a week old so there isnt that big a difference ;)

my settings:

driver: auto

frame rate stats: no

disable fullscreen: no

orientation: east

enable sound: no (wont work and haven't been bothered to look into it)

use virtual pad: yes

tactile feedback: yes

polling method: no

custom file dialog: yes

cpu throttle: off

thread priority: normal

I have not installed any openGL driver on the HD2 so unless it comes out of the box then i do not have it ;)

My rom is a danish version of 1.43.

hope that helps :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Vrbanjac:
Screen res

When you mount the games in one of the emulators, should the game screen be small?

_____________ <----- x4 sides

This is how big the games are on my screen :S

Hope I'll get help, or a answer =)

Edit;

After some reading I saw that you should put the screen size to Auto scale, but now when I try to mark Auto scaling it will just go back to 100%.

I also can't mark 150% or anything else, so it's not just auto scaling =)

Help please =)

How can I choose my specific config, respectively any settings?

When I try to change any settings which have a selection, e.g. skins, I click my choice, but then nothing happens, it just switches back to the original settings!

Just another problem, the size of the frame which shows the game is toooo small, how can I change that?

Help, I need help
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] neil_swann80:
Use the cursor keys on the on-screen keyboard to make a selection and the ENTER/RETURN on-screen keyboard key to select/accept.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] impreZzA:
Thank you, that worked great! :)

So now I chose the new gamepad (wvga one) but it doesnt not pop up on the screen, what to do?

Is there any option to increse the display size, more than 150%?

Help :)

Edit:

I just found the solution none the less I had to unselect "disable full screen"

now I can see the gamepad :)

But, what do I have to do, that I see game + the gamepad without any black bars?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] neil_swann80:
In the emulator/module settings...

I.E. the settings for NES or SNES, rather than General.

Set the screen size (Display) to "Auto Scale".

Do this for each module.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] nemob:
thanks you very much
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] impreZzA:
Hey,

Morphgear is working great, real Gameboy Feeling :-D

The black bars are still a problem, image size is set to "auto scale" in snes settings as well as in game boy advance.

Playing snes games there are no black bars, but with the same settings the black bars appear while playing game boy advance games.

Any fix for that?

from dredd?

try to take a look at post 1 ;) just click the link saying "latest, get this"

Concerning the multitouch, then it has absolutely nothing to do with the skin. The multitouch is enabled by the modifications Blutz have made to the source code, and any skin you can find is able to use multi touch. For some weird reason some are better than others though. So try some different pads and see what works best for you ;)
