You can try my freeware game Tile Fall and adventure game interpreter PocketZax -- these both work fine on WVGA screens.

Go to Windows Marketplace n get Zenonia
I bought this for £6 when I would usually rather leech n test first.
The reviews and screenies for this adventure persuaded me otherwise.
I must say Zenonia is the BEST game I have ever played as a Native Windows mobile App.
If you ever got on with Zelda on SNES - this is the way forward. I have not had emotional attachment like this to a top down RPG bash the baddies game since......1992!
I would suggest everyone buys it - then hopefully the dev - Gamevil - will release more magic.
(it was an iphone game which they ported over)

Hello. My name is catcraig and I'm a recovering Zeldaholic.
This might be a stupid question, but how did you get an iphone app installed on a winmo phone? I would definitely pay for it if I could figure out how to get it.

it seems gamevil ported the game to winmo, and tp2 is one of the devices they tested on
i think it is available on marketplace

I have a Touch Diamond 2 so touch only. Can you play this game touch only?

Is there any version of Tetris or Kevtris that works with the tp2? If so is there a virtual d-pad that you have to install also?

Duke Nukem 3D using the spvDuke3d port works quite well. It supports WVGA, but not by default, you have to edit the CFG file.
I use the following settings:
[Screen Setup]
ScreenMode = 1
ScreenWidth = 400
ScreenHeight = 240
Shadows = 0
Password = ""
Detail = 1
Tilt = 0
Messages = 1
Out = 0
ScreenSize = 15
ScreenGamma = 16
(I'm not sure why the width and height are set to half, but that's what gets it to work. Setting it to 800x480 ends up with it going off screen and only a quarter of the image showing up. Perhaps changing screen size would change that?)
Info here on how to set it up for full audio:

thanks drdrbuzz. i'll try it.
to add a few more:
warcraft 2
jackpot casino
dupewars
bejewled 2

I have the following games and they work fine:
Prince of Persia
Spiderman Toxic City
Assassins Creed
NBA 2010

[for devs] Sunburn Gaming Engine Demo for WP7

Nice!!!! Check it out. What does this mean?? Snapdragon 1 as some hope to running some sweet games? Or a fancy demo that will never flourish??
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xf8rKauvYac&feature=player_embedded
read the article here
Synapse Gaming has ported their Xbox Live gaming Engine, SunBurn to Windows phone 7.
The engine supports all all the features and systems the hardware is capable of supporting, and allows a game to run across all three platforms without any modifications,
On Windows Phone 7 the engine supports:
• Diffuse and emissive mapping
• Volume lighting
• Bloom / post-processing
• Baked-down lighting on static objects (see below)
• Composite lighting on dynamic objects (see below)
• Collisions
• Use the same scenes, light rigs, code, tools, and api on Windows, Xbox, and Windows Phone 7
SunBurn 2.0 also includes in-editor baked-down lighting, which generates light maps that render with none of the overhead of the real-time lighting (rendering nearly for free). This makes highly detailed lighting and shadows possible on Windows Phone 7 (which does not support dynamic lighting and shadows).
Several Windows phone 7 games have already been released using the engine, including Salty Jim’s Putt Putt Island, UpAway and Blast.
To learn more, and see SunBurn WP7 games and demos in action, go to SunBurn for WP7

Aw man, I'd love to have those demos on my phone. It looks amazing. Do you guys plan on making the demos available?

[App] Real Racing 3 graphics changer

Guys i found this app called Real Racing 3 graphics in the play store.This app lets you set a desired video graphics quality for Real Racing 3 game.
Almost all Tegra 3 devices has default graphics setting set to low. As a result various visual features are not working, such as rear view mirrors.This app lets you choose the desired graphic option for real racing 3.
download link- https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDEsImx0LmhpdGV4LnJyM2dyYXBoaWNzIl0.
Press the thank button if it helped you!! :good:

I wish there was a universal utility for every game out there

Graphic fix exist but freemium pay2win fix not :/

This app essentially does what manually modding the files in the data directory does but is a huge time saver.
Great game btw
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2

Although this is a good app, changing the graphics makes the game laggy and unplayably slow. I wish the game was Tegra optimised.

Dolphin (Wii / Gamecube) Emulator

Guide for setting up Dolphin emulator on Nvidie shield tv:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCJKOKAc0Rs

I believe the controller issues have been fixed as of a couple days ago.

I'm fairly sure I know the answer to this but has anyone got decent Wii emulation out of this device?

That is the builder that builds new versions every time a change is pushed to master.
Just click the new one on the top of the list (#1039 at the time of writing) and there will be an APK link to the latest built version at that point.

thanks, im not having much luck with same settings as in the video most games i tried wont even start
true crime streets of la - splash screen then crash
baldurs gate - splash screen then crash
freedom fighters - wont start
ghost recon - wont start
second sight - wont start
medal of honor front line - works but at 7fps
is this normal ? bit confused as the guys video are 60fps lol

Same here, tried a ton of games at all kinds of different settings & they either won't start, crash immediately or 'run' at single digit fps?

They're up to build #1396 over at https://buildbot.dolphin-emu.org/builders/release-android
Is this version any improved? Can someone post results and recommended settings?

I've used those versions. I grab latest every day to see the improvements as they come. Recomendations, well... Toy with the settings. 1 at a time. That's what I did. Super Smarh Bros played at 40-60 FPS at all sorts of different settings. Just give them a shot.

I like it

There are vast improvements with the latest versions. Only had a quick go last night with Wind Waker, its almost running at full speed now. Here's a nice little video on a channel I follow.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iQ6myHHMnU
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCJKOKAc0Rs
The fist half on the second link shows how to set it up.
Personally I set the internal resolution to 2x, enable fastmen, Enable Skip EFB access from CPU, and set EFB copy to RAM (cashed). Oh and force 16:9 aspect ratio. I leave everything else as default. That seems to work for most things and gives a good speedup. You'll get a much more details explanation of settings over on the dolphin on android forums obviously, but that should get you off to a decent start.

There has been huge improvement recently. I played through Fire Emblem Path of Radiance in its entirety on the SATV (overclock 0.5) and currently playing through FE: Radiant Dawn (overclock 0.2). For Wii games Super Mario Bros Wii and Muramasa the Demon Blade running full speed for me (and Radiant Dawn with overclock, as above). Game cube games running well include Timesplitters 2, Luigi's Mansion (although there has been aa graphical regression recently and his head is missing) and on 1x IR Mario Kart Double Dash is virtually perfect too (frame rate consistently above 55), as mentioned above Zelda WW approaching full-speed too. Performance in most games is CPU bound, so increasing to 2x IR or so doesn't hit performance in most games, so I was interested to see that Mario Kart did improve with lowering IR (someone reported that in comments in Free Emulators YouTube channel and I checked and it's the same for me also).

Arrr thats interesting, I wondered how people were running Double dash at full speed while I was stick at about 30fps. Over the weekend I played Wind Waker on the sheild, however there is a bug in the Tower of the Gods section where the lifts don't activate http://www.neoseeker.com/forums/1540/t1671502-tower-of-gods-glitch-dolphin I thought it was just me and it wasn't until I gave up and looked at a walk through that I realized it wasn't me I had to transfer back to the PC and play past that section before picking back up on the Sheild. There's something very satisfying about playing on the Sheild TV. I've had dolphin on my PC forever but hardly ever fire it up, probably because of the backlog of steam games lol. Whereas with the sheild in the bedroom its the first thing I head for. Probably because I believe the gamecude games are far better gameplay wise than native android games. I tell you what though I find those Zelda games pretty challenging puzzle wise, I can fly through most modern games but they really do have me scratching my head and I do occasionally have to reach for a walkthrough as much as I hate going so.

Yes is there a list of Sheild TV specific overclock settings somewhere? I saw a thread on the dolphin forums but it said the settings may vary by device. I haven't played around with OC settings myslef yet. Off topic it would be nice to get a custom Kernel for the TV so we could bump up the CPU clock a little

I've yet to play around with any OC settings mate that was #NZtechfreak. I just enable fastmen, Enable Skip EFB access from CPU, and set EFB copy to RAM (cashed).
I'll have a play around with the OC settings later tonight, but I believe setting to 1*IR should give you almost full speed without OC settings.

Gaming/Emulating games on the 8 Pro, what's possible?

Happy new year all.
Just thinking of flashing a new ROM and was contemplating what could be possible on current hardware.
The last time I ran a test from top to bottom I hit the ceiling at ps2 emulation but that was dodgy
Anyway, I personally haven't used any of the new emulators for a while so wondered what is currently possible? What have you used? What worked? Or was good?
I know in theory 90% of Wii games should work and everything underneath it, so GameCube, PSP, PSX, N64, Dreamcast, Saturn, 32x, jaguar, arcade, mega drive, SNES, Neogeo.
Any info, ideas, cool stuff,

IMO it all depends on the game.
I play NSMB Wii through dolphin and that works great. But as an example, I can't get Rogue Leader on GC to play on anything except a good GPU on a PC. The Hoth level brings everything to it's knee's and OP8P is no exception.
AetherSX2 is great for PS2 emulation and with a few tweaks seems to play everything very well. I tried shadow of the collosus and Black and both were very playable. Check youtube for how to tweak.
But yea, everything below that seems to work great. Dreamcast, PSP, PS1, Mame. I even managed to get Killer Instinct arcade working throuh retroarch and that worked very well.
You can also play packages for Doom 3 and OG Half Life as well as HL2 and Portal with hacky APK's.

What's NSMB?
Shadow of the colossus? If that's working then that's really really impressive, that absolutely pushed the ps2 to the limit, the use of fog to keep graphics in memory was genius for it's time and to manage to keep the frames up on ps2 hardware.
Cheers will have a look at that ps2 emulator, nice one.
PS:. I've got a guide on how to run PC games with native files

One of the things i've been using for gaming has been this app https://parsec.app/
Pop it on a PC you game on then log in, change some settings then leave that PC alone.
On a second device, android / mac / or other windows device, download the app from the link and install it.
Log in and you can then control the PC you installed it on in the first place, i have to say that the speed of input is really really good, i was massively impressed by the responsiveness and ability to play through games with minimal setup required.
Few things to change.
Set resolution to 1920x1080
Change network to latency / performance
Change network allowed to max / 50Mb
Renderer - DX11
That should work as expected.

I played some PS2 games on my Huawei P30 Pro already.
For the nature of emulation, not every game works. But everything below PS2 and below WII U is probably very enjoyable. Most emulators are open source and are ported to android anyway.
I would say God of War from PS2 is playable on the 8 Pro.
