Flow in games

Hi,
Just found the flash-version of this game and trying to find out if its playable on diamond. It would be awesome to get it to work with the g-sensor. Anyone up for porting it?
Check it out:
http://intihuatani.usc.edu/cloud/flowing/

that would be fricking awsum!!!

Ive extracted all the resources from the game and it doesnt look like its too hard to do it.
Going to give it a try this weekend if the weather suck or im not too hungover.

It does look cool, but what is the aim?
It looks like a game on the DS I think Electroplankton or somehting like that

b
it was so so
but not work effectively

Here is a ball simulator that uses the g-sensor (now with a working link lol)

Hey guys heres my first diamond app im going to make a few games that use the tilt sensor i have a few weeks free soon so keep all them ideas coming
it just simulates a bunch of differently sized balls but its cool (try it in a car with it being held flat) lol

i reposted this because the original had a bad download link sorry guys
also if you give me any ideas for small games / apps then i will try to make them as i have some free time soon

hello?
no one wants to try it
if you have can you tell me what you thought please
i also have made a magic 8 ball application using the g-sensor too
link:
http://rapidshare.com/files/133799977/Magic_8_Ball_0.1_alpha__bug_free_just_not_finished_.zip

im also working on
im also working on a game kinda like flow but that uses g-sensor for controls and stuff should be out in a week or so

Keep it up. We need all the gsensor apps we can get. I like your ball car screensaver idea.
Surur

Just tried it... would be fun if the Balls would react to one another as well as only to the "walls".
But as a "Demonstration" of the G-Sensor it's pretty good.

i will be adding collision to all the balls soon and some other things im also making a game similer to flow that uses the g-senser and i also made an 8ball app

all of this looks promissing.
A game like flow would really be cool!!!!

How about Wii Fit game that balance the ball and get the balls in the hole.

a wii fit balence game might work
i might give that a go to sometime

funny stuff, both.

Marble Madness remake using G-Sensor

now that's a good idea!!
or a PSP-Patapon type game!
I think we just need some clever XDA-developer-pro to make a button-mapper so you can replace any left/right - up/down movement of the d-pad with the g-sensor - now that'd be good

3d droid

Hi.
I'm modeling 3d Android for one website, so I'll like to share with you my current progress; this is not finished model: I have to change hands (I don't like them as they are now), make legs, and add some more details. I have just posed what I have till now in to some quick pose and make quick render, to better see how it looks, and what to change.
I the end, this will be animated character and it will be used for banners, logo, icons, animated intro for videos, and some wallpapers and maybe even for theme for mobile phones.

Thats nice..I wish if the colors were a bit different from what they are right now!

Hmm...Well good!

Dude they're awesome
May I ask what your using to create those? Photoshop? Blender?

I'm modeling this in 3d studio max.
And here is one more small update; I have remodeled hands, so that now I have more wide range of movement with them.

Awesome work, the first face looks better in my opinion, but the second is more original.

I also prefer the darker face. There is more contrast and makes the eyes stand out more. Also looks happier. Good details there. It is very difficult to make "green skin" look good at best of times!

Tnx guys for comments.
Face is still something I haven't decide yet what to do about it; I'll have to make some tests with expressions to see what will work best.
Now, I have to make legs; i'm thinking about making them somewhat similar to hands, but I'll put wheels on them (they will be mostly hidden; there will be a gap like for hands, where wheel will come out), so that he will basically role around; i thing that he will look cooler that way.

Wet yourself with what???HUH!!!

Here is one more update; I still have some things to do, but is getting some final form.

Looks pretty sick, but I must say, when the legs are on their own, well.....

Dreamscenes on your hero!

Well I was fed up of not having any decent livewallpapers on my hero and stumbled across a livewallpaper called video live wallpaper.
This livewallpaper lets you play a video loop as a wallpaper, having just installed dreamscenes on my laptop, I put two and two together and thought why not.
After a few hours of trying various conversion formats I have found the settings to run dreamscape mpg's (dreamscapes must be in video format not dream.) as a livewallpaper on your hero, this looks really good and makes the hero look like its running really complex live wallpapers!
Anyway it works really well and is very stable and looks really good, so thought I would share it! If you check out the short video you can see a few running!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pp3pNwQetds
If you want to do this you will need:-
video live wallpaper app (free from market)
Any video converter (free on download.com)
dreamscences in a movie format (google them) or www.dreamscenes.org
You then simply need to convert the dreamscene and run it with the live wallpaper app.
Ive found that the optimum settings for conversion that give the best look/performance balance are:-
Profile= customisied AVI movie
Codec= XVID
Frame size = 352x240
Bitrate = 12000
Frame rate = 15
You can tweak these values but be warned I found that if you go too high your poor old hero will start locking up, at these values I get no performance issues and battery consumption is on par with other live wallpapers, anyway enjoy
Oh and just to be extra nice here are the three from the video, ready converted for you to try if you can't be bothered to convert your own
View attachment Bokeh_xvid.zip
View attachment reactor_1680_xvid.zip
View attachment silky-dance_xvid.zip
(Oh yeah btw you need a custom rom to run live wallpaper on your hero, search development if you dont know how!!)
And just so you know, on my phone ADW launcher didnt seem to like this wallpaper so I swapped to launcher pro and it was fine!
If anyone finds any other cool dreamscenes, please feel free to add them to this thread to give people a selection to use.
EDIT...here's a few more I've converted
View attachment Underwater_xvid.zip
View attachment UnderseaHD_xvid.zip
View attachment 506581
View attachment Colormetry_xvid.zip
View attachment blueUV_xvid.zip

this is fantastic. will be trying this tomorrow.

nice ! I will try it soon !

Looks great, thanks!
...and BTW: I love the swing effect when changing home screens, how did you achieve this? What ROM are you using? Is it possible with CM6?

ROM is froyo 2.2.1 special edition final with fly kernel 12a overclocked to 710mhz
Transition effects are in the latest launcherpro release
In theory any ROM should work as long as it has the live wallpaper hack included, not sure how they will perform, maybe some will run better than others, if anybody feels like posting performance results on other ROMs that would be useful

Just found a site with lots of free dreamscenes to play with

No problem my friend, theres also some cool transitions on ADW launcher now as well if you like that sort of thing
And a little update for anyone trying the dreamscene videos, there seems to be so sort of problem with the video live wallpaper app, after a few days use it starts to really affect performance on my phone, am thinking some sort of memory leak (Im no dev so not sure really) stopping app then rebooting sorts out the problem.
Anyway I've emailed dev about it but if anyones clued up and knows what there looking at, then any input would be good

Hey!
I'm the dev of the VLW. I downloaded one of the videos of the original post and I'll be testing it on my device to see it anything weird starts occuring after a while.
Though I have the Desire HD so I might not have any problems. We'll see.

Thanks for having a look at this for us, would be nice to use this as an every day live wallpaper......and yeah I reckon the desire hd will cope slightly better than our little old heros hehe

Very nice work!
When I get home from work I might try this on my Desire HD too

Very nice!!!!!

3D Bootanimation?

This may be a dumb question, but being that our phone the LG Thrill 4G is a 3D phone would it be possible to create a bootanimation in 3D? I think it would be a great way to show off the 3D capability of the phone.

3d requires drivers and an app to disay in 3d. gallery is what displays photos in 3d, video player does videos and games do it themselves. other things dont have that ability which is why you need the 3d converter to view other things in 3d it is the converter that enables it. the drivers would have to be loaded before the boot animation and the 3d would have to be implemented into what displays the boot animation. it would require a lot of work and not even sure if it is possible to do at all. im sure if it was lg would have been more than happy to show it off.
now i could be wrong this is pretty much just me making an assumption based on what i have learned.
...fighting ninjas at night, talkin' about this and that.

I agree that it would be awesome. I for one just wish they would implement more 3D than just games. I saw a article of theirs saying they still feel 3D is the future and will stay behind it, but if the 3D is only really going to be good for games, whats the point? Just my opinion

well it is just starting out right now it is only games soon you never know, the whole phone could be in 3d with option to make 2d. the launcher, app drawer, boot anim and all apps could be in 3d one day. your icons would look like they were a few inches above the actual screen and using advanced proximity sensing tech they could make it to where you can actual press the icons without actually touching the phone.
imagine the icons and dock popping out at your face and you can select something by pressing the icon "in the air" your brain would think that you were actually touching the icon it would look like you did but your finger is actually inches away from your phone. the phone will be able to tell the difference between a finger selecting something or just an object coming close. this i think is what lg is trying to work towards. a full featured interactive 3d experience

woah, if that is indeed the future of 3d, i'm definatelly taking the Thrill from my wife and lettin' her have the Sky Rocket, lol(Not that she'd let me;(..)

Need to remember that it would only work in landscape mode... you can't see the three dimensional effect when holding your phone vertical

There is a new screen that is in development that can, and it will show a normal 2d effect when its off angle and will work art any orientation.

When I saw treks post I was going to say the same thing. I can almost guarantee that one day they will even have screens that will be 3d no matter the andgle. Stereoscopic is a very primitive form of displaying 3d it has been around for decades and I am talking more than 2. Won't it be something when your phone doesn't really have a screen so to speak it will have a projector that actually creates everything as a hologram a few inches above the surface... well that's pretty far in the future but i could see it happening. You might even be able to lay your phone flat on a table and watch a movie in full 3d holographic display. If you are in front you see the actors faces if you are in the back you see the back.of their heads. Now that would be awesome.
