Hi everyone;
I like the motion sensor capability of this device. Now everyone knows that summer vocations are coming and we will all have much free time. I wanted to ask if anyone know about games that are motion sensor based just like some race games in iPhone. Htc touch diamond has just one motion sensor game (Teeter) and thats it. I have been looking around and i could not find any games that are motion based and that are made for VGA devices. If anyone knows a site or even the name of the game PLEASE can u share it ( not the game !!) just the name of the game will be enough !!!! so lets together find interesting games for our device !!
HTC uses propietary (and undocumented) accelerometer access API.
Not to mention this is the first WM device with accelerometer.
So I wonder where do you intend to "find" any games for it, since it just hit the market. Eventually third-party games will appear, but for now Teeter is the only one HTC was generous enough to provide.
I searched a lot but without success...
I search again !
TEETER dump?
Help! I just installed a localized, dumped ROM (Danish) and TEETER is missing. Can some dump in into a CAB, please?
still serching.... nothing new.
teeter is inof now, many times finished with total 15 mins of high scor. haha

Have been bored at work all day. Just wondered if anyone had any fantastic ideas for Diamond games. I'm not saying I can make them, but if anyone can work out how to get the G-sensor working on games, I'd love to see a sensor-based Pacman.
there is loads of old dos games you could convert.
someone made a lunar lander game. he can help you with the gsensor.
what about a driving/flying game in which you control the car/airplane with the gsensor and use the dpad button to fire at enemies.
or maybe just a racing game
a platform game in which walking is left right, tilt up is jump etc
good luck
Hi,
I've tried some OpenGL ES games (usually designed for the X51v)...
Those games don't work, I've got a message "untrusted certificate..."
Call of Duty 2 (software version OK) (www.aspyr.com)
Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 (software version OK) (www.ionfx.com)
Yeti 3D Engine (www.sourceitsoftware.com/yeti.html)
Chopper Fight (www.omnigsoft.com)
Solterra (http://www.blacksmithstudios.com/solterra/)
Enigmo (www.aspyr.com)
BUT !!!
Stuntcar Extreme accelerated (X51v version) works with our devices but it's very slow... (about 5 fps)...
Strange thing that this game works... about the speed, I really don't know if it's our driver or the poor 3d chip...
I'll try some others...
I don't know what the error message means... somone has an idea ?
Thanks for the info! im very interesting in diamond games performance as its one of main reasons for me to buy it!
have you tried any games on the playstation emulator FPSECE? or PocketSnes?
Thanks
According to the poor GLBenchmark performances, and Stuntcar Extreme OGLES, it seems to be a poor graphic chipset...
Or maybe a poor driver (libgles_cm.dll) but I bear on the first option...
A 3D Accelerator is all that is needed to play such games with requirements that aren't that much really, they need to be optimised for the diamond, or there is some driver issue, that is all.
Most OpenGL ES games I have tried don't work at all for me, Stuntcar Extreme won't even start either will Solterra and that looks pretty good
i managed to run COD2 in hardware mode, very good frame rame rate too!
so i guess its not about a poor 3d chip but more a software issue

I got Tony Hawk to run with hardware accel!!!the frames are sluggish..maybe needs some tweaking....

the answer to untrusted ... is here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=428703
ive been able to run COD and THPS. problems are controls... and the device gets quite hot when playing even for five minutes. I wish I could play those games... BUt its just way to inconvenient.
yes ... i agree gameplay is horrible ... but it works !
i m going to buy a bluetooth gamepad
So i ve tested many of those games ...

hi guizmox !

i m using 2.03 official rom with ati d3d drivers
in fact i ve dl every versions of stunt car i found no one is working ..
excuse me for my poor english ..
Solterra
If anyone is interested I have found Solterra for X51v. Tried it on my Diamond:
.DLL files found in main directory are HSS.DLL and ZLIB1.DLL
The game gave me an "Untrusted" error upon start. Copied and renamed lebgles_cm.dll from Windows directory to ZLib1.dll, replaced original. Same thing.
Downloaded sdkcerts.cab and installed. Ran Solterra. Same thing.
Downloaded lebgles_cl.dll (thanks NuShrike!) wrapper, game starts then quits. (Windows Titlebar changes to Solterra momentarily but nothing is visible.)
Downloaded CUBE 2004 x51v, copied and renamed ZlibCE.dll to Zlib1.dll. Solterra can be seen in Windows Titlebar indefinitely. Let PDA sit for 2 minutes. Nothing happened. Screen unresponsive to stylus. Pressed Home Key, Diamond returned to home screen and Solterra crashed.
I have heard a few debates about whether Solterra is freeware or not. The last time I checked the site was down, and Solterra is essentially abandonware (I heard if you clicked the "BuyNow" button on the homepage, you could download the full game for free for a limited time...) but since the site is gone and no information is available I will refrain from posting the link until someone can prove it is freely distributable. (I don't want to anger the mods and get banned on my first post!)
If anyone has any other ideas to get the game running, please let me know. I'll share my results and help others get the game running too. If you want the files, just prove the game is freeware and ill upload it somewhere and post the link. Thanks!
ROM: aFast 2.03 (b30)
Radio: v1.09.25.23
i m looking for solterra for a long time ... where did you find it ?
Please .....
Hi, once and for all, there are many very good people, which know WM, system structure, codes and much more about our little toys. So, is anybody here, who can tell us why there are so many troubles with Diamond and games? Most of us thinks that WM 6.1 or VGA screen is that problem, but I dont think so. I tried lots of games, and I find out really interesting things. For example, game Motor Gear, is smooth, and VGA, but there are many ocasionall lags. But more interesting are games like MiniTran Canada, Mini Dogfight - both games will run menu, but if you start actuall game, just black screen shows up. BUT (now the interesting part) if you press home button, for a while, you can see the game! Just before Diamond goes to home screen. It doesent matter if TF3D is running or not. But I dont have any idea about WM system, graphic drivers or any other stuff. So I thougt, has any of you any idea what is cousing this problem? That and many other games act same way. Picture comes up just before the home screen appears. I know that many of you doesent play games, but it is interresting for me just becouse this behavior is very strange. BTW: Both games can be runned in VGA on WM6.1 device. Only Diamond and simmiliar phones have the problem.
Hello ,
For HTC Diamond2, the java games are not getting fullscreen.
I implemented setFullscreenMode(true)..Still no use.
Are there any specific jad attributes for HTC to make full screen?
Is there any other way to get full screen for java based games?
Please help me..
Cheers

Java games on HTC Diamond 2/Topaz
I can't find a way to play java games on my diamond 2, i've already searched on many sites and forum downloaded a lot of things but nothing is ok.
the other day i paid for and downloaded the nes emulator, i was playing around with it and realised that i couldnt play games really as i dont have a keyboard like the G1.
also with this problem, when playing cestos i cant talk as im playing from my HTC MAGIC and have no keyboard. do we no of any one that is going to be fixing these problems
thank you in advance
Hello,
From my experience (which is some what limited mind you, haha) ScummVM works very well with the HTC Magic. I have a Vodafone HTC Magic (black) and had Broken Sword 1 running perfectly. Obviously most other games will not work as well given the lack of hardware keyboard - but point and click adventure games are no problems with the touch screen/trackball! Also, the ScummVM app is free from the Market last time I checked.
Hope this helps!
It seems the magic requires a vitual keyboard. Also, as the magic is capacitive, that would mean that it's essentially multi touch capable (even if google haven't capitalized on it yet), so theoretically, it should be possible to get that virtual keyboard running with multiple buttons pressed at the same time. As far as I can see, the Sapphire(magic) is a rather new phone, so these things just take a little time to come from the developers.
Caid.

i belice in cestos you can chat by pressing menu->show keyboard

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yeah, it works. But some point and click, like broken sword 2, monkey island 3, need a right mouse click (inventory) to continue playing. Also no buttons to save the game.
So ScummVM is good, but with some games not. I hope they fix this soon.
There are a couple of experimental multi touch apps appearing in the market for use on rooted phones running certain firmwares. Hopefully we'll start seeing this being implemented into emulators soon. I'd be more than willing to pay £5 for a decent Megadrive emulator with multitouch control.
You never know, maybe we'll get official multi touch in Donut... or Eclair... maybe Flan? Please?!
There is a game boy/game boy colour app called kidd GBC. You have to pay for it but it uses an on screen keyboard (well an a and a b button that you press on screen) and you use the trackerball on the phone to move about. It works quite well and is one of the first emulators i've seen that has a basic on screen keypad implemented.
Finding games isn't easy tho.
The guys over at http://www.supergnes.com/index.php are working on the bomb snes emulater that will supposedly eventually support touchscree/multi-touch/trackball.
Theres a slew of myTouch 3G users coming down the pike, lets hope they start getting support.
ggNES is the BOSS! it allows u to set onscreen arrows and buttons, but i use volume up down for a b and the screen for the arrows cuz without multi touch its hard to put both on the screen.... hopefully donut should fix that!
Been using Nesoid for NES games and Gensoid for Megadrive games, both have on screen D-pads and you can map the buttons to correspond to A/B etc..
Works really well, really like it, tons and tons of roms out there. Been playing Altered Beast on the megadrive emulator and Mario and Zelda on the Nes one!
