I searched some Multi-Touch Skins for MorphGear on the xda Forum, but i do not found a lot of them, so i decided to create one and post it here.
There are two skins, a first one with buttons X and Y, and a second one without buttons X and Y.
Put files in "MorphGear\Skins" folder.
Orientation : East (So it is Landscape Skin)
Size : 150% (But you can play in 140% or 145%)
You can play also with "Window Size", you have just to remember where are the buttons.
Just try it, and you will see it is very funny, personnaly i like it.
If you like it or not, tell me it here with your raison.
I think i will create a new release of it, with new hidden buttons L+R, X+Y, A+B, A+Y, and B+X.
And correct some bugs, if it is necessary.

Twenty two downloads in two hours, but no reply.
If it is possible, say me your point of view.
Because i think i have to make a new release.
In four hours, this post had 124 views and the files was downloaded 25 times.
I really hope futur downloaders will put a reply to tell me what hey think about it.
it says error message
hi on my hd2 leo when it download it says: there's no file asciate with(name of the file)
I have not error with it, and after some hours and more than fifty downloads, only you have a problem.
So i think you make a mistake.
I think you have just forget a file in the correct folder.
Check if you put in "MorphGear\Skins" folder, the ".jpg" and the ".txt" with the same name.
After in your MorphGear settings, you have just to choose the skin with this name.
For the moment i have no bad replies of Members.
And i put in my first post the numbers of downloads with date.
So i think, those skins are nice.
But i prefere have replies.
oh yeah, very nice, I'm going to test it... but I wonder why need to change Size 150%... maybe it's silly question. thank you
Working very bad on my HD2.When i press A it presses B (not always but very often,but i press A without touching B).Direction keys have this bug too (pressing right,it goes left and so on).Skin looks good,but the size of game screen - trash.It is very small and it is bad for eyes.Better leave only buttons and remove the gameboy screen.

I just advice a size, but after you can play with the size what you want.
I play in size "150%" (Maximum % size) or "Windows size" (Maximum size), because it is not too difficult to remember where are the buttons and to use it.

I have no bugs with the two skins, but thanks to explain me your problems, because i said i ahve to make a new release.
So i have to know if someone have problems, even if you are the second on 160 downloaders who reply problems.
I don't know about which skin do you speak (with or without XY) and the raison of your problem when you press a key A, but i hope it is not just the fact you have perhaps too big fingers.
Even if, the button have huge Largeur height size and normal width size for using it.
If you speak about the skin without XY, you can see where you have to touch for using the buttons A and B :
If you speak about the skin with XY, i have to improve it in the new release.
I know that the position of the game screen skin is not perfectly make, but i will check it on the new release.
The aim of the skin is to have the skin of the "GameBoy Advance", but don't worry i am working on the special skin for playing in "Window size" and having simple and huge buttons.
Thanks for your reply, and i hope when i will be post the new release, you will try it.
Some screen shots would help for those of who have no idea what this is or does.

You have right, i forgot it.
I will put it now.
Ок,thank you.I saw where i should press,but it is rather hard not to press another button.
btw,it will be better to make more space between A and B buttons (X and Y too in 2nd skin),more space between cursor buttons (and will be better to make them little bigger).
And here is a bug (i don't have it in other skins).When you press any button and then press Left cursor,then the left cursor will repeat button that you pressed before (not always working) and it lags.Tested this skin mainly on Megaman and Bass (GBA) game.Some other games have this bug,some not.
P.S. Got lags when i pressed left cursor in every game!

I will try to see if i have it also, and if i have it, i will correct it.
But if i have not it, i will telll you and if it is possible, you will giave me more details.
EDIT : I tried on GBA and NES, and i don't have the bug of left arrow repeat, i will try on differents games and every emulation and after, i will tell you.
I had a little lag on GBA emulation (but no in NES) when i pressed very quickly left arrow, then right arrow, then left arrow, and i repeat it a lot times, but i have it with two others skins, so i don't know if it is the skin or MorphGear.
I will continue to test and try, and if it is a bug of the skin, i will check it, but in oder to if it is MoprhGear, i can't check it.
I will wait then.
I just tested some games with other skins-there is no such a bug
I think you make the button is larger, it's small and hard to play games... and make the button with 8 navigation. thank you.

This game was originally released on the Mac back in the early 1990's. The author then ported it to PC lter, and now a 3rd party, ith the authors permission of course, has ported it to WM5/WM6, and it is no freeware. The PC version still costs $8.99, but the mobile version is free.

Wow! Thanks. I played it on my (still alive) Amiga1200.
thanks for the heads-up!
Check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2432836 for a quick review & tips.
hey a cannot open the download can you help me pleaase!! I love this game!!
Cool! I played this game when it was released on the PC, and at the time it was impressive: Smooth animations and a sound quality not heard until then (when the most you got were bips) . Not to mention that it was a well developed story.
Update: I just installed it on my Samsung i780 and F-S Loox N560, it doesn't work on either . So it's probably QVGA compatible only. I will test it on my Touch and see if it works there. BTW, there's a Game Boy Advanced version as well that was ported some years ago.

Assign the left (right?) softkey functionality to Camera to be able to bring up the menu.
Do I have to resign my softkeys on my prophet, too? Why couldn't they make this easier?
sweet lord!
i need to see it on my machine to believe.
this is so incredible.
younger forum users won't probably imagine how shocking such news may be...for few.
This is a really stupid question, but how do you beat that first monster? The only moves he seems to be able to do is the jump kick (up) and the just a regular kick.
thanks,i played it on some kind of emulator few years ago,and it was really interesting,but i came to a part where some bug appeared and the game would just crash...thanks again,i'll be sure to try it

run past him...i can't really remember how coz i palyed it some time ago but in the 2. or third scene is some kind of obstacle or an elevation,so play with the monster,lure him to the first scene,then run past...or something like that...anyway you can't kill it

Run to the left, when he's about to jump over you, jump and keep running to the left. In the last screen you'll see a rope over the edge of the rock, jump from there and he'll grab the rope and move from left to right over the monster, then run all the way to the right.
BTW it's a great port. But I have found no simple way to bring up the menu on the HTC Touch. I mapped the camera button to left or right soft-key with no luck. Then I found that if you hold the power button as if you where going to power it off, as soon as the confirmation dialog appears, you can say "no" and the menu of Another World will pop up so you can quit without having to reset or power off.
Doesnt work on the Raphael.

Yeah i have the same troubles on my Touch Cruise.
I mapped left soft key to kamera or voice button (button 4) but it didn't help. Mapping is working in manila 2D, but not in the game (. So u cannot even enter code to continue in game.
Try to do the same: Hold the power button until a dialog asks to shut down. Cancel and the menu of Another World will appear.
Unfortunately I sold my Touch (to get a Diamond) and I can no longer play it since VGA is not supported .
Doesn't work on the Motorola Q. It looks like this:
Please help me. Broken GAPI and/or lack of screen rotation destroy it's value for games, emulators and applications
Wow, I just checked back...cant believe so many ppl replied to this and know about the game....cool
Dear Developers
I have a request for a nice peace of software. I guess a lot of Diamond2 user will love it.
Now that we can scroll through the file explorer and so on (with zoombar) it would be great to have a "button" to click on the selection.
As there was an app for the diamond1 that made the Multi-Touch-Buttons customizable (hold, click, tap, double tap)
I thought it would be possible to use the zoombar as different buttons:
Button 1: Tap the zoombar on the left (magnifier(-) to 3rd line)
Button 2: Tap the zoombar in the middle (between 3rd and 7th line)
Button 3: Tap the zoombar on the right (7th line to magnifier(+))
The three buttons should be customizable in their action.
Btw. the zoombar and the buttons should work at the same time.
(There is an TouchHD mod that enables their "new zoombar" OR the touch-buttons)
Original post
Would be great if someone could help me (and all other Diamond2 user)
Regards Mar'Cel
That's great idea. That would be really good to have it work as buttons
Intresting idea..
As and when I get a Diamond2 (I should hopefully get one when T-Mobile UK get them) I'll try this, unless someone else gets there first...
Great idea, I was thinking the same thing. I'd definitely need to have something like this available before I would purchase the phone (this one or the touch pro 2) . I could not imagine always using the touch screen for so many things and not having a d-pad, I use it all the time on my FUZE.
I would take this app idea even one step further: make the 'zones' completely customizable as well, so you could create as many as you like, by specifying coordinates for something. (i.e., if the scroll bar has 100 "units", you could say "0-20 is button 1, 21-40 is button 2", etc) So, in my case, I'd try to see if it would work to have 5 "zones":
left, up, select, down, right
something like that. Might be tight to squeeze 5 buttons in there (3 is probably more realistic) but it might work, and with that layout you'd have a full d-pad ! It's gotta be possible, let's make this happen !!!! The little guidelines in the zoom area might actually make this even better and easier to implement, since there's a nice visual aid to let you know where to touch to get the button you want. Might be even better than the current diamond/touch pro d-pad !!

A possibility too. But I think a developer decides what makes more sense or what is better to implement And you know that the zoombar can be used to scroll through most lists/apps(with a little mod) and so on, right? And you have arrow keys on the keyboard.

Can you run the attached exe (copy it to your phone and run it there), and tell me what the "where:" value is, and whether "keyup" works?
Or, can you take a few screenshots of it when you click in different places on the zoom bar?
BTW, the exe is taken directly from the sensor reverse engineering by Scott Seligman, but if it works I can play around a bit and convert it to topaz...
EDIT: if it doesn't work, can you tell me what the error is?
Maybe I have to install anything before to make it run properly?
I get an Error "Unable to load HTC API DLL".
When I press OK I can see the orientation of my phone -> the tilt
and a little ring is sliding around when I tilt my device..
A second start of the app is possible after restart
I will download the HTC API.dll and try it again... but shouldn't the HTCapi.dll be there on my ROM already?
[edit] I found a HTCapi.dll from the Touch HD... can I use it or should I take another?

htcapi.dll is what provides data from the capacitive panel on the Diamond and Raphael. I'll need to look at a Topaz ROM and see what it's using instead. I think it might be using biotouch.exe/biotouch.dll since that's what the zoom bar for Blackstone is using... I'll look at it tomorrow.
I took the htcapi.dll from the HD and now your .exe runs without error.
But I still just see the ring sliding around and three "tachometer" showing my tilt direction.
Maybe you find out tomorrow (today^^) I'll have a look later

That means that HTC have changed the drivers for the zoom bar from what they had for the Blackstone/Diamond etc... I think they've now decided that the zoom bar is part of TouchFlo (the finger scrolling part, not the manila part). Time for some disassembly!
If you tell me how to find that out I could help you.. otherwise that doesn't tell me enough to help you without any hint
Any improvement yet?
Bump... Bump...
ok i'm a noob
can anyone guide me step by step, how to make zoom bar as a scroll bar
I found out here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=512614
but it doesnt let the zoom bar to work 100% as a scroll bar
thx and sry for the noob question
wrong thread. go to topaz and see..use Advanced Config. an app that can also do what you ask for.
Common Dudes... no one can make our wishes come true?
i think they are using Smarttouch for scrolling the zoombar.. but I may be wrong, the reg entries suggest its that at least..

zoom as screen on manilla, this is what i want
bump. With the lack of buttons, I think the original idea would be great. Perhaps write a small little app to dedicate buttons to the spaces (ie 1-20 = button 1, etc). If it was assignable, you could have as many or as few buttons as you wanted.
Think of the possiblities....
Is anyone going to make one with an onscreen keyboard? An NES emulator would be all I need for gaming on my nexus one but... nesoid does not work. =(
what we need is a NES/SNES emulator that has an on screen joypad with multitouch. I mean if the multitouch is integrated into other app, such as the dolphin browser, when will someone throw it into a emu is what I'm wondering.

God, I have been waiting for that for forever. I want that so badly.
I'm actually really surprised we don't have something like that. This is my first time looking around for an NES emulator. 1/3 of the screen could easily be controls and still be comfortable viewing.
You mean like Nesoid does right now?
Works great on my Nexus One.
I use Back and Search as A and B.
the author of NESoid has apparently told multiple people that (s)he will make a multi-touch version after getting a nexus

Thats my problem. Trying to play castlevania 2 and I can't even jump over water. the tilt function to walk left and right works great, I can even jump & walk, but then I cannot go down or up! how can I play a game without having to use my tongue for the volume buttons, one hand to tilt and one hand for action buttons?
The next iteration of the emulators will probably have multitouch.
Snesoid and Nesoid have multi-touch added now and works pretty good. You have to concentrate a bit when playing games like mario though heh, a little too easy to get a wrong touch and die. Did get to the 4th level in super mario world, but it took some doing.
The button placement on snesoid is pretty bad as well, it was ok enough with dpad top-left and buttons lower-right, but the developer changed that around in the last version with buttons top-right...
Anyone that can get in touch with the developer? If the dpad was lower left and he added all four buttons to the lower right if would be near perfect. I don't care if the part of the screen delegated to the game gets smaller, it would just add much to playability on phones without buttons. As it is, it's a little too cramped and doesn't work good enough for platform games and such.

you can move the buttons around in settings.
my problem is the buttons and dpad are too small. theres plenty of screen space to make them bigger.
also a lot of times itll send the wrong key press. like youll hit 'up' and itll send 'x'.
Works great for me, just have to get used to the buttons. I found a torrent a while back with 980 + games 111Mb! If anyone would like a zip emailed to them pm me.
Edit: once unzipped its 200+ mb.

You should look at the dates on posts you're quoting
But yeah you can move them around now. I've found that the best configuration, that yields the least amount of wrong presses, is dpad top-left and buttons in a row in lower right. Much harder to press the wrong button with that combination in my opinion.

Why? Cus it's missing certain things (like the keypad), it's got a couple of bugs in it... like error messages asking to send info to Microsoft (see here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=639799) and also the blummin rotation thing seems to stick on portrait when i want landscape! That aside, i'm impressed
Oh, one more thing i don't like about it (though there is a way round it as always!)... tomtom... the TG01 cannot directly use it's built in gps! you have to get a 3rd party app to link in conjunction with it! You don't get issues like that on the Diamond or Blackstone do ya!
About the error you get ^_^
I have 2 TG01 devices and i did'nt get such an error ever.
But If I am not mistaken gwes.exe is actually the application that monitors your touch screen.
I also ran into some post that refered the error to the screen sensitivity (calibration) and also to the time you actually press the screen (on the same place)-it makes the CPU usage to hit the 40%+ some even talked about 80% in extreme cases...
did it also stay after hard reset/Rom flash?
if so when does it happen to you exactly?
Arrow Keys

Well, it normally happens when the unit has gone into hibernation mode or if you put it into 'sleep' unsing the power button and then wake it back up later on. I've just had it happen again about 5 mins ago. After that, it got really odd. Every time i pressed the power button, it 'flashed' the screen back on and then went off. This happened about 5 times. In the end, i had to pull the battery and restart. Weird.
As for flashing a rom, if there was a WWE ship out there, it'd be on it right now mate cus this Orange rom is garbage. Sadly, to my knowledge, there isn't one available... or is there?

Can you do me a small favor?
Go to start->settings->system and turn off error reporting.
Tell me if you get the same problem again but this time without the error post.

Yeah ok. I'll moitor that for you mate. I'm off out in 15 mins so i'll have plenty of time to keep my eye on it for you
I'll check the vid outlater... now that i know what you mean! :lol:
I have been playing with the Game Gripper(GG) for a few hours now and I wanted to post my thoughts.
Packaging: The GG came in a yellow envelope with a receipt and nothing else. No issues there, there really isn't anything you need, but it also means there are no instructions at all.
Installation: It might seem like common sense, but you need to remove any case your phone has installed for it to fit properly. I will mention it in case you are like me and miss part of the case. I have a 2 part case (bottom, and top) and I removed the bottom, but not the top. Once the case if off your phone it is very easy to install. You can slide it up from the bottom, or fold out one side and push it direct onto the keyboard. The plastic/rubber it is made from is very flexible.
Looks: The color is the same shade of black as the rest of your phone. While it isn't as shinny as the phone itself, at first glance it actually looks like it is part of the phone. The buttons that are clear have a visible air bubble inside them.
Performance: I will say it is leaps and bounds better than using just the keyboard as input for a game. It does give you a sense that buttons will perform as expected with each press. The buttons are far enough apart to avoid pressing more than 1 at a time by accident, but close enough to press 2 with 1 finger if you need to. I was having a little trouble with left and right, it will not rock quite as well as a standard controller. This was a pretty minor issue, with some practice I got the hang of it and everything was great. If I had to compare it to say a SNES controller, I would say feels like it is about 75% of the real thing. It lacks some firmness and tactile feedback on some keys.
Over all I would give it 2 thumbs up and it is definitely worth the $15 that I paid for it.
Looks cool!

Looks good!
Kinda sad that the game gripper won't work if there is any type of case on the Epic. Might be the deciding factor if I purchase one or not.
How do you configure the keys to work in apps like Nesdroid? Do they link you to a profile you can download or something?

Its pretty easy. Under the menu you can change the key bindings. I just looked at wikipedia for a reference.

I was having the same issue except my down was not working properly (it was pushing 2 buttons at the same time. I just took an exacto to it and trimmed it down. Works 10x better. You might want to look into it. I'll post a picture in a second of my adjustment.

It is just something that goes over your keyboard, so no special "drivers" or connections. It just uses keys on your keyboard.
Could either of you guys try out SF2 and let me see your results. Interested to see if it controls as well as my mod.
Thanks
So far so good for me. I'm playing jet moto and it requires super good control and shoulder buttons. Unfortunately I can only use the camera button as my r2 and have to use other buttons for the rest. I was able to win a race and also came in 2nd in another. I'm liking it so far
i got mine today have yet to use it. still packaged. can you charge it while using it?
Ordered mine Friday. Super excited to get it now!
Nice, I can't wait to get mine. What day did you order yours?
Edit: we need the guy who took the exacto to his keyboard to compare it, lol
Nice Review
Ordered mine Friday and stoked to get it. One question, while playing some games I notice I really need the diagonal direction alot, how does this work with the game grip? I was concerned that maybe the keys were not poly-phonic and only one keystroke would work at a time.
@Masterface7
I am the guy who chopped up my keyboard. I don't plan on buying the game gripper though. So I'm not sure what you want to compare?
@magicwands
If you saw my mod on the Epic, you can see that you can press many keys at the same time and it will work. I can pull off special moves very easy in SF2 and charging running and jumping in MegaManX is also possible.
I'm curious if the game gripper controls as well as my mod. Last I used a game gripper, it slid around a lot and was annoying enough that I didn't want to use it anymore.
Looking forward to see more videos.
I got mine today and it works great except for the right arrow key. Ill probably try to shave it down later but my up and down arrows work fine just the right arrow key isnt lined up well the d pad is too large so the right and left arrow cant both be on the letter correctly.
say the game gripper is set up like this
DPAD 00/00 123/456
has anyone noticed when hitting 5 and Left on dpad that button 3 gets triggered???
i just mine as well. what games can i install to test this thing out?

i didnt realize what was happening but while playing ff7 i kept on having my menu pop up which was bound to button 3. Button 5 is the one i hold down to run and it seems to happen when holding down 5 and pressing/rocking the up-left area for me. Any idea whats causing this?
edit: Just tried without the gamegrip and i could repeat the same thing by mashing WQA and FN keys while holding down the Up Arrow which is the same keys/area as the gamegrip. So i guess its just an issue with our keyboard unless it happens only in psx4droid which is what i was using.
You could go to the Messaging application, put the gripper on and push each button one by one and make sure it's only pressing one key as it's supposed to.

I have a feeling it's the keyboard, I've heard reports of "typing too fast" and whatnot... I'm pretty sure it's simultaneous key presses is dorking it up.... it's a shame, one of the most decent android phones with a keyboard and they messed up the one of the main things you bought it for.
Any limits of simultaneous button presses?
