[Q]Where can I find a bios file for GameBoid? - Off-topic

Hi guys!
I have a Desire and a Hero and like the idea of playing some of the good old GBA games I played when I was a kiddo on my phone.So I downloaded GameBoid Advance from the Market.Then I try to load a game but it tells me that I need to download a bios file which I can't seem to find anywhere.Does anyone know where I can find one?Links greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

yes but it would be on rapidshare or megaupload, still just as annoying having to wait.
wolfenstein you may notice you can get on a website you dont need to register from.
as far as duke nukem, you need the .exe from modaco, you should read my guide on getting it to work on the kaiser also from modaco here:
http://www.modaco.com/content/Smart...-Duke-Nukem-3D-on-your-Kaiser-with-keyboard-/
I suggest you do register there though, just so you can download whatever you want there whenever you want.

quake 1 or 2 aint doin so hot, framerate and peformance is good, but theres 1annoying bug on both versions that makes the left and right directions strafe, and you cant fix it. it only strafes and doesnt turn. ive managed to fix it twice but every time you run the exe it automaticly makes it strafe again
So, my son got high point on Wolfenstein but we could not figure out how to input his name. So we ended up having to SR'ing the phone. Is there a way around that?

not all will work, only those that have the same file names, but even then some dont work. im gonna try the spongebob mod lol.
EDIT: just tested and the spongebob mod works with the shareware version:

why? cuz its not boring, it works, and it uses the full version. (the last 3 episodes arent finished though)

Emulator / NES

Hello!
I was just amazed at how well the MS. Pacman game ran on Duttys V3 ROM. However, I have tried multiple "OLD" emulators out there to try and find one that will work well with some of the old Nineteno game ROMs and cannot. Can someone point me in the right direction - one that will work with the tilt? Thanks so much in advance...

Did you try SmartGear? It's the best generic, multiplatform (if you don't need GBA / SNES) emulator out there.

Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 for Fuze

alright, sorry to be "that guy" but I read the stickies, did a search and nothing came up in the raphael sections for tony hawk, but I read somewhere earlier someone said that a must have app is tony hawk 2 (although its not full screen) it was on page 3 of must have apps I believe. But anyways, can someone please help me get this onto my phone? As you can see by my username I skateboard, and tony hawk 2 is my favorite of them all (it's the first with manuals) anyways, could someone please tell me how to get this onto my phone? Do I have to download an emulator and then the rom? or is the rom going to straight up work somehow? I'm not a computer guy really, I'm just an idiot with a question I'd like answered. Please Please PLEASE help me out here, I want to get my fuze working awesomely

This should be posted in the Raphael software forum. You'll have better luck getting answers there and will probably anger fewer of the ROM gods.

Iam not sure if Iam not breaking rules or something. But THPS2 is PPC game. You dont have to emulate anything. Just downlaod it and play. It runs great on my HTC Touch Pro.
Where to get THPS2:
Code:

Iam not sure, if THPS2 is Licensed or not. Its not my post, and i just searched for it. So iam not responsible for anything (^^,)

WAREZ links are strictly prohibited.​
Organize your text
I don't want to break the rules, but would it be against the rules for him to private message me the link? if it's not, can whoever posted the link send it to me via PM? I REALLY love this game
just buy it
ive tried hardware accelerated version and couldnt get it to work on touch pro. havent tried sofware version

Interesting. Aren't the two pretty much the same except for externals?
Wow this is great. I played this game so much when it came out years ago. I'm going to install it now I hope it runs alright. If not, would the Xperia trick work on the touch pro as well?
it runs fine for me (touch pro with original rom). i have the software version and there is a libgles_cl that you need to replace with the version found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=415523
Okey i have been wondering about something for a very long time..
well this is what i do.
1. open up the hardware keyboard
2. launch the THPS2 game
3.configure the keys to the hardware keyboard which do work..
well playing with the hardware keyboard is perfect and great but when i exit the game the configuration of the keys sets it self to default... which is very annoying as i have to reconfigure the keys again after each time i launch the game.. well the game it self works as it saves it self and so forth so it's playable..
well are there any sollution for my problem or is it a bad-install?
Go to TH2_OPT.CFG file and uncheck 'read-only'. Now the settings will remain saved.

So what do i need and where do i get it to, run Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 on my HTC Fuze, please i really want this, it sounds like so much fun, so any help would be greatly appreciated
Any way to make it run reverse landscape instead of landscape? :|
well what i do is that i open my keyboard first and then launch the game and it will be in correct mode to the use of the keyboard.. is that what you mean Kraize?
@DSF: well the game runs really great and is very very playable.. not just for showcase.. well i use NATF rom v4.0 and it works really great... it's fully playable when the libgles files are changed and when the keyconfig read only trick is applied...
yeah, the catch is always open keyboard before launching app. came with cod2
i think i need to reinstall thps now because my playing screen is tiny

Donkey Kong.. original arcade

After about an hour of searching this forum, and many links for games and emulators from this forum, I cant find the only games I really want. The classic arcade version of Donkey Kong, and the Legend of Zelda. I know I could probably have the both of these with a nintendo emulator, but the 5 or so links to download different emulators never worked. Does anyone out there have a working .bin emulator file, or just the games themselves. Thanks.
Well i found this. I dont know if this is what you looking for. But just trying to help.

http://www.mobiles24.com/search?keywords=zelda&c=free-java-games&search=GO
There are more emulator games on the site. You just have to find them.
Would have been exactly what I wanted, but they dont work with the Kaiser. Always prompted with "file error". Thanks.
Anyone have either of these games already.
thats weird they work on mines. sorry it didn't work. If i find more ill post it here
Thanks... I'll try again, but it seemed the java that they run off was conflicting with my phone.??? Are you running an Emulator with them, or just straight off the website?
Have you tried Pocketnes? I have a few hundred games that all work flawlessly. Which rom are you using? There are a few roms that it wont work with.
I'm not using one yet. Everytime I install one, it never works, or just doesnt download.. I'll try pocketnes though... don't think I've tried that one. Thanks.

I have PocketSnes, but I can't get Roms to work, when I load them they freeze my device. I tried Killer Instinct and The Avengers, anyone know of any issues with these.
I also have pocketSnes and have both those games running just fine, most likely your rom. Which are you using?
Probably a useless reply (sorry!) lol
But i did manage to find a copy of zelda thats a stand alone java application.
Try searching for zelda+winmo+java maybe.
Sorry dont have time to upload it somewhere for yea atm.
My kid is a huge zelda fan - Its NOT for me. Thatd be quake2
Have you tried MAME for PPC? It's called MAMECE3:
http://www.mameworld.net/mamece3/
I imagine it shouldn't have any problems running an older game like Donkey Kong!
As far as the original Legend of Zelda goes, have you tried PocketNES?:
http://pocketnes.retrogames.com/
Of course, finding the ROMs is a question of legality.. You could try building a ROM dumper and dumping the contents of the chips in that old Donkey Kong arcade machine in your garage.. (you know, the one sitting next to the box with the old Legend of Zelda cartridge in it!)

Gamers: Please get TigerMAME- it rocks!

TigerMAME on the Gtablet plays CPS1, CPS2 and all Neo Geo games. It plays all games full speed with sound. Droid X chokes on games like Metal Slug and King of Fighters 99.
I have tested every rom for CPS1, CPS2 and Neo Geo over the weekend (really). EVERY game works perfectly.
Gamers need to get this ASAP TigerMAME 1.31 is curent version. The app sucked up until 1.3, but since then, it is amazing.
Proably best for the dev to rename it Final Burn, since more that than a true MAME.
A+ none the less!
i'm sorry but what exactly is tigermame? is it an emulator, i can't find it in the market.. also i got wiimote to work over the weekend and have been playing some games. my experience the games have been very laggy and choppy. my incredible plays them much better. i'm on zpad, i wonder if i'm doing something wrong or i'm on the wrong rom
I'd prefer a plain version of MAME instead. I like the older games versus the JAMMA (CPS, CPS2, NeoGeo) stuff.
I found it, I had to search mame not tigermame.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Silly question, but how do you control the game? is it all on the touch screen?
Weird. I found Tigermame by typing "tiger" but have the near full market working.
TigerMAME is a multi arcade game emulator. This is more like Final Burn, whose focus is Capcom games (CPS1 & CPS2) and Neo Geo.
This app and PSX4Droid show how much more powerful the Tegra 2 is over the 3630 (Archos 70 & 101).
If you search for the game sets I refer to above, you can easily find lists and download links for the roms. Everyone of them works perfectly. For Neo Goe games, make sure to put the neogeo.zip file in the same directory as the game zips or Neo Geo games will not work (it is a bios file)
Touch screen is better than I thought it would be, but still no match for hardware inputs.
The app is free.
I also have psx emulator and it its laggy too. Maybe its the rom I'm on or maybe I need to reboot before I play. But yes the tegra2 should smoke the snap dragon.

Just Google scph1001.bin for psx4droid and u should find it. Once u download it place it in your psx folder on Da SD card. Now when it asks u to get that file it should be in there
BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE
in order to play psx games they have to be downloaded and extracted on a desk or laptop. Doing this from ur phone will cause the games to not download correctly. I don't know the exact step by step instructions but I do know what you need. U need a program that extracts the psx games. U can usually Google it and u should find something to help u with this. Than the most important part is finding a program called (UN ECM). Once u get done downloading and extracting ur game of choice, you then drag and drop it ON TOP of the UN ECM program wherever its located on ur computer. The reason for this because the program doesn't open, u can just drag and drop stuff on top of it. Once all that is said and done there should be a data.bin file wherever u originally saved the game. U can rename this file but don't delete data.bin, jus put game title prior to the word data. Once u do that, then put the game file in the psx folder on your Droid.
In order to be successful u should do research. The info I gave u is generally correct but hey, ur Da one that has to complete the task. Let me know how it works out. Good Luck

Thanks... I am looking more into it, its running .. looking for roms now
Sadly, the current version of PSX4Droid (1.7) is MUCH slower than 1.5 and 1.6. 1.5 seems the best version of the app for speed.
Games play a lot slower on 1.7, so not a good rep for the app and the Gtablet's performance. 1.5 version IS a good rep.
As far as TigerMAME, how the dev went from a bad app to one of the best in such a short time period and a few updates is amazing.
Every single game and rom version works perfectly for speed, graphics and sound.
1 CPS1
2 CPS2
3. Neo Geo
That is a few hundred real arcade games playing just as well on the Gtablet.... Though the V-pad is better than expected, it would be nice if a USB gamepad could be read.....
i tried running psx 1.5 but it does not load the bios that worked for 1.7. is there another bios or something?

For me, version 1.7 is slow on the Gtablet and super crazy slow on the Incredible. 1.5 is about twice as fast. I can get some good playtime with the v-pad, but playing platform games is an issue. Actually doing better than I thought with some games.
Correct though- we need the ability to use a game pad.
I'm trying to spark some interest as to why tnt is making us use their keyboard, there has to me a hack or a mod to fix this issue.
