Anyone remember that game on dos called styx? I use to play it on my first PC when i was probably in 1st grade or so. Well I found a dos version of it and was wondering if its possible to get dos apps to work on PPC. Screenshots of the game can be found here http://www.mobygames.com/game/pc-booter/styx/screenshots
Never tried but you could start here.
http://www.pocketdos.com/
or here;

thanks!
That should make it work, but for some reason pocketdos isn't showing all the directories... maybe 2gig is to big for it?
I got other stuff i'm supposed to be doing now so i'll toy with this later.
Thanks again for pointing that out.
Guys and gals, don’t forget to check out my brand new, MS-DOS / x86 emulation-related article at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1276884
(Sorry for flooding – IMHO, this article certainly deserves attention because it answers ALL the questions a Windows Mobile user may want to EVER ask about emulating MS-DOS. Make sure you read it!)

Hi!
Does somebody knows about an instand massager for PPC Devices which uses the xfire protocol?
dude i would love this, but so far all i have found is a a java based app called openfire which can be found through xfires wiki page, but it uses a .bat to run. the makers of that app also distrubite some .jnlp version whatever that is. and there is xfireplus.com which uses a java applet and a new window, you could use minimo web browser for the new window bit, that is if you can find some way to get java running on your ppc. i have a dell x50v running wm and believe me java is a pain. what do you have for a ppc?
apparently there is a j9 thing that ibm has but you have to do some fancy work to get it and sift through a heap of crap and possibly compile and then add some library's. if any one find anything or can build something i would be ever so grateful. its just annoying to have to tote a laptop to talk with your buds bc they only run xfire. happy hunting to everyone to find something on this topic.

Please follow my previous articles - I've devoted several articles & tutorials to running Java applets.
In a word,
1. you'll need the CrEme JVM if you want to stick to IEM on Pocket PC's (not NOT on Smartphones. On Smartphones, it's only NetFront that will work when it's released.)
2. if other browsers are OK, Thunderhawk and NetFront 3.3 also has Java support. See my articles for more info on how it's different from that of the CrEme + IEM combo.
Edited my last post.
sorry, i had looked all over the net for running java on a ppc and never came across anything that worked for me, so i gave up. are you posts on this xda site as well? and i did come across CrEme JVM and installed it, but dosent it need some type of library?, thats what i was able to gather from their site. if you dont mind could you pm me a link to your other posts.
I was just browsing the internet and I came across something VERY interesting... They say it is a standalone WM6 Rom emulator. I don't know whether or not to believe it but I know I can't try it right now. My XP partition is kinda small(40gigs) and my computer really doesn't have the Ram to run Vista anymore since I re-installed Norton 360 but I think this is something that deserves some serious attention here.
If this really works then we could potentially use this to test roms before flashing and hopefully avoid bricks in the future.
PLEASE, someone has to take a look at this...

Nothing new as far as I understand it.
It is about Microsoft emulator (it has its own ROM images).
You can emulate WM 6 on a PC (with MS Visual Studio or a standalone emulator). I guess most of people know that.
*But you cannot emulate your own Wizard ROM*. This was discussed multiple times here...

First, thanks for the linkage.
Before the release of the full standalone emulator package, I was able to use the Orcas VS beta release to install, then slide some pieces of the WM6 SDK into a rough "standalone" config. Thought it might be helpful for other folks looking to get some time with WM6 while avoiding any bricking risk to real hardware.
Since the release of the full standalone emulator package, including WM6 emulator ROMs, that linked post/thread doesn't actually mean a whole lot.
I've got some additional items on DEmu 1.0 and 2.0 using both WM5 and WM6, which can be found here:
http://www.chrisrue.com/funcave/2006/06/wm5-device-emulator-index.html
http://www.chrisrue.com/funcave/2007/03/device-emulator-v2-index.html
As stated already, the standalone emulator package doesn't really offer any benefits for cooking or testing hardware specific ROMs.
And many MANY thanks to the amazing technicolor pool of genius here at xda-developers. You've saved my bacon more times than I can count. So thanks for that!
Well, I bought my vox today.
And it is really cool.
There are a couple of Questions I couldnt fix with the Help File.
For example, at the Home Screen on the Bottum you see: Start and Contacts.
Is there a way to change Contacts to Message or Send Text Message or something like that?
Also, I installed:
http://www.trianglepowers.com/PPC/ViewApp.aspx?ID=56
The install was alright but it doesnt work.
I don't see the Memory Bars on my screen? Do I have to enable that somewhere?
Also I've got a couple of questions about Specific software that I seem not to be able to find.
I think I should post this in a Separate Topic but I dont want to spam the Entire forums full, so i'll ask here
Has anyone made Scapy work on there Smartphone? Using PythonCE?
Also has anyone tried Super Puzzle Turbo Fighter ][ Java on there VOX System?
Since its not meant for it. But I think It should work. Though if it doesn't and I bought it. Well thats just a waste of money..
Is there anyone who used MiniStumbler on a SmartPhone? Since I can only find it for Windows Pocket PC?
And my last Software Question is:
MARS - [Memory Array Redcode Simulator, a machine that simulates a Corewar battle]
is a Programming game?
Is there a port for it in SmartPhone? Since else I should make it myself ^^
Well, I asked a LOT of questions. I hope nobody thinks I am a Leecher
Thanks already!
Cheers,
Robin
I'll answer the questions I know answers to and tell you that if you search you will find an answer, so here goes;
1). Yes. Search XDA for "Soft key changer"
2). That application is for PocketPC, it will not work properly on your Vox which is Smartphone/Standard.
3). Scapy does not work, as far as I am concerned PythonCE for Smartphones is a kludge.
4). There is a Java VM called Esmertec jBed. It should be able to run Super Puzzle Turbo Fighter just fine provided the resolution is within the Vox limits.
5). MiniStumbler does not work on the Vox, however WiFiFoFum does, it is completely free and has the same features.
6). MARS, there is no Windows Mobile or even CE port/release of this.
1). Yes. Search XDA for "Soft key changer"
Thank you!, I didnt know what to look for but now I do ^^
2). That application is for PocketPC, it will not work properly on your Vox which is Smartphone/Standard.
Ah, ok thats why I didnt work. But ofc tht is quite logical. I thought that didnt make a Difference if it was the Home Today Screen..
3). Scapy does not work, as far as I am concerned PythonCE for Smartphones is a kludge.
Ok, well thanks.
I am going to write something like this myself then. If it's done I'll post it here.
4). There is a Java VM called Esmertec jBed. It should be able to run Super Puzzle Turbo Fighter just fine provided the resolution is within the Vox limits.
Ok, thats GREAT! I am going to get myself a Copy right away!
5). MiniStumbler does not work on the Vox, however WiFiFoFum does, it is completely free and has the same features.
That other program is fine aswell. Just wanted to find WifiNetworks. ^^
6). MARS, there is no Windows Mobile or even CE port/release of this.
I found a fix. PocketDOS!! ^^ I just run it on Dos.
Thanks for all this, your a great help =)
Cheers,
Robin
You can also use Smarttweak v.1.07. It can modify alot in your vox and removes the message sent notification after sending an sms. There is a crack version here in one of the topics here. just look for it. ciao!
i can help you in chinese ,but i do not think you know chinese...

How to disable that?
I want to see that sent notification.
so the whole pokemon on your WinMO is a old project, and it seems to have dissapeared.
I literally spent hours trawling this site to find the answer to get Pokemon Gold onto my Snap (MAPL) but non of the purpose built cabs worked and it seemed like it was never going to work, but then i realised WinMO 6.1 has a java appelet so i went out and found the GameBoy java emulator, most of them dont work, or effeciently except this one...
http://arktos.se/meboy/
Its called MeBoy, u just download the builder, add the ROM and create the JAR and JAD file, transfer them over, and now im currently playing Pokemon gold on my snap like the good old days.
The reason for posting is to make a fresher thread outlining the method to do this, as all the posts i was viewing were old.
Check the Compatibility thread on the site for compatible games
Feel free to ask a question or two.
I really want some nice games, that are funny. sorry to say but the iphone has alot wich i like... everything else this phone rules!
and i know we have some nice ones like psx emulator and gamesofts game that are cool..
i saw iphone emulator for pc.. wouldnt it be possible to use that emulator to
play games on our hd2?
Nope, there is no iPhone OS emulator for Windows Mobile.
More and more successful games from this platform come to our platform, most recently, I saw a beta version of Doodle Jump...
Time will show how the creators of such brilliant entertainment software find their way to another platform. After all, if they think commercial, they will expand their business to Android (most likely) and maybe some to WinMo 6.x, too, but I expect more to come to the next generation of Windows Phone.
