So i see the MarioLiveWallpaer and that is beyond awesome and it got me thinking ....
Is there a pacmanlivewallpaper available?
If not i think it would be wicked cool if this was created ?
So if some dev with some free time on their hands can make this happen it would be awesome ..
I am just learning about coding and java etc so i am no where near competent to make this happen just yet
do a market search.... existed before the mario one. was my favorite until mario came along
I know this has been discussed before but I'm issuing a challenge.
With the release of the R2D2 themed Droid I am disappointed by the quality of Star Wars themes for the EVO. The ones that exist are weak (kinda like the Droid one) and us fans deserve more.
So....if anyone has great theme making ability and wants to devote some energy into making a seriously bad a** Star Wars theme (hopefully flashable) that doesn't slow down the system, you might be considered an earthly god by some.
Yes...this is a bit geeky but can't let the Droid fans beat us now can we?
Wow....
no one to take on this challenge? Where are the genius theme builders at?
I love STARWARS but I don't have an EVO to make it. Sorry!
***bump*****
I would love to see a good Star Wars theme. If someone can make one or point me towards one already made I would be greatful
Fanboyz right here lol love star wars i agree to it would be nice to see a bad ass theme for this phone
I don't know of a specific theme but most of the font packs have a couple cool star wars fonts in them
This would be awesome..
I'm trying to throw together an Oregon ducks football theme together...running Mikshifted G....Anyone who wants to contribute or help me in anyways please do so i'm new and have never tried this before!
Thank You!
Whenever you have questions, send me a pm. I used to make a lot of themes, and received my PhD from UO in 2010 (I miss Eugene so much).
Search the evo forums, if you find one you like, post a link for me and ill see what I can do about porting it to our phones. Once I get my windows box running again, if there isn't already a lock ring made, I can make up something for you... MikshiftedG (the best sense 2.1/3.0 rom for our phones) by aamikam will have a lot more options for you to choose from because Aamikam makes the mikG rom for the evo (way more popular than our phone). Check out themikmik.com and maneuver your way to the mikG v2.15 and v2.2 roms for the evo and than scroll through the themes and mod section... I could probably figure out how to port a theme from a thunderbolt as well so check in those threads as well. Good luck hunting! And if you find something post links and ill see what I can brew up!

Can't be much help, but I'd love to see the finished product. I'm from Eugene, though the Corps has kept me away most of the last 15 years.
Hey guys i thanks for the offers for help! right now i'm trying to learn how to make a boot screen...i want it to be the oregon duck doing push ups...i think that would be cool so if you have any suggestions on that and i really do need a lock ring really bad! i want the whole theme to be that kind of neon green they did for the national championship so a lock ring with the "O" that is neon would be awesome!

Did you ever come up with a finished product?
If your heart skipped a beat when reading that title, I am sorry.
It's not something that has been done.
Also, apologies if this is in the wrong place, but I think it's the appropriate place.
This is an inquiry or call out to anyone who thinks it should be done. I DO.
Or more specifically, if you would like to join me on a quest to make it done...
I have been thinking about learning to develop games, and now that I have an android I think I have a specific game plan, the zone, on android.
I mean half the jobs right now are aimed towards computer programmers of some variety...
Whether or not it's possible to port the xray engine to android I have no idea, but if it's been done with the unreal engine 3, and very well by gamesoft.
I suspect the advanced ai and global scope of ai operations would be impossible to duplicate and give playable frame rates. However smaller levels on a more linear basis should not be so far out of the question.
I see two options, port Xray, or rebuild on UE3.
From what I remember about UDK from my unreal 3 game it's fairly easy to build levels and even the meshes looked easy enough if not time consuming for a beginner like myself...Most stalker fans that I have ever talked to like the level design.
I was just over at the UDK site, and seems easy enough an option to go for, the software is fairly easily available and means half the work is already done (ie removing the need for pure script work), with support for mobile devices etc etc, and I have spoke to GSC before, not about this topic but they are easy to talk to and I think they would support such a project.
So if you think it's impossible keep it to yourself.
If you think it's possible and would like to try it speak up.
It might take a few years, but a test run on cordon should only take a few months to run through possibilities and story lines with a dedicated team.
Come in, don't stand there. Speak up.
My computer can eat my phone for breakfast, and running Shoc or CoP with high settings I don't get great frames. You would get worse on the phone, besides, with the A-life system I think it would give most phones an aneurism. Also consider the fact that when you have mutants coming at you from various sides, a touch screen isn't going to be the best control method.
You would have to create a dummed-down version of it. Oh, also you'd have to write a new engine since it works via a .exe and .dll's, that would be the hard part.
Just trying to be real.
Edit: ok, fine you did touch on those same points. Remember though X-ray was created from the ground up. And yea, my "bretheren" (not literally) in Ukraine are a good group, I used to haunt their boards when I playing the series regularly and there was newer development from the community. And having a dev group which incorporates the community's fixes into an official patch is good.
Over-all, yea, it'd be a bit much to try to get it running with free-roaming and a-life. It'd have to be made alot more linear.
Indeed free roaming is way out of the question, but comparing mutants to enemy soldiers in the likes of modern combat...there is not much different, It's just running unreal engine...
Dummed down yes, to a degree, not so much open land to traverse to get to different places, but there are lots of different small places you could easily (I think) take on, warehouses, tunnels etc.
A touch screen too, it's not ideal, but some games are still very playable using it, again I refer to modern combat black pegasus series, it's the first and only fps game I have liked so far, but I have only tested a few.
In game controls are easy to figure out, in terms of usability, I have already designed how that would look.
Using a joypad via blue tooth would give far better results with from what I have read little to no lag at all on a clean phone.
Creating a linear story line that works in the stalker universe I think would actually be the most challenging thing to do in order to bring the same atmosphere that the PC games have. But the game is somewhat linear already, if you took out those options.But there were only seven real endings for SOC anyway.
You certainly don't need skies to be as nice as PC counterparts, and you don't need the AI running for more more than a hundred metres out.
Again yes, but I don't like the term dummer, it would be a more simple zone, but it would be a zone.
And thats why I think running a linear zone on the unreal engine would work well.
Would you want to get involved in this yourself?

Might I recommend setting it up like some of the fantasy RPGs? Right now I'm playing "Aralon" and can't help but think how easy it should be to adapt it for games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and FALLOUT 3. That said, I'm no programmer, so it's up to you guys. Please hurry, lol.
A note on "Aralon", It's great because you can run 1st or 3rd person. One thing I would like to see maintained is S.T.A.L.K.E.R.'s use of the weapons sights/scope while in 1st person. That's my biggest issue with Fallout 3. Good luck and I hope to see you all in the portable Zone soon.
Oh, and PLEASE don't make it an MMO only. I'm really not all that social, lol.

One can dream but why not defrag arlon on and make your own models
you can use unity mobile sdk and implement on same game base should work
So I got to thinking earlier today that it would be kinda awesome to have "net navis" on our android devices. It could be somewhat based on the Megaman games where you would have a character that would "live in your phone" and it could be your personal assistant along with going into the net and doing cool things like in the games. So it could have a practical and helpful use and a game/fun use. It could be an interesting idea that a developer could take and run with or maybe there's even something out there like this already. If anyone really likes the idea and would like to create it, i have a whole gameplan layed out for the specifics. I'm just not too savvy on app making. Anyone else have thoughts on this?

Haha, I thought of that 2 minutes after I started playing MegaMan Battle Network (the original game for the GBA)! Unfortunately, I don't know how to code. If I did, I would have made a PET app already. It's crazy that Capcom hasn't and isn't planning on ever doing it. It seems like such an obvious thing to make. MMBN was ahead of its time but now we have smartphones that are just like PETs from the games and anime and we have assistant-like programs like Siri and Google Now.
I'm seriously considering learning how to code and program AI bots just so that I can make a NetNavi program. It would be even cooler if I could make AI programs self aware but I don't think I could ever do that. If I ever learn to code I'll make the app and let you know ;P
I'm actually kind of interested on the "gameplan" you've got laid out Maybe we've thought of the same things.
What I would not like to see this turning into is a fighting MMO. That would totally ruin the concept as NetNavis were supposed to be useful programs and not just toys.
I think i would like to get into this once i start getting the hang of doing android development. i already do other kinds of development including web based and some back end game development.
Let us know if you do. I would soooooo love to make the program but even if I did know how to code it would still be incredibly hard. It should be some sort of launcher and not just an app. Kinda like the way Facebook Home works: it doesn't take away important features but it customizes the whole experience in order to do its job. That how I imagine this. You get a call and, instead of ringing, your phone vibrates intensely and when you get it out of your pocket your Navi says something along the lines of "X is calling you. Wanna pick it up?". Of course Navis would speak differently depending on who you are (age, job, personality etc). When somebody sends you an email, your Navi would say "You got an email from X. Want me to read it?".
On to the interface, I think most of it shouldn't be easy to customize. Everyone should start off with a default gray humanoid Navi and from that point on, if somebody wants a custom Navi they should program it themselves so that they can make it look exactly the way they want it to look. There shouldn't be a Navi customization feature where users can pick a set of eyes, ahead shape, a helmet etc because that would make it too childish. The maker of the program should offer advice on how to create a custom Navi an should make that possible to do but that's about it. Remember how in the game not many people had custom Navis?
If you ever need alpha/beta testers you know who to ask
Good idea!

Thanks Anything you've thought of?
Yo I honestly think this is a good idea. Ive been DYING for an app like this to come out. You could combine something like iOS Siri and a Launcher/Theme app with a netnavi sort of mini game rpg type thing close to the gba game. You could customize the everything about the netnavi and level up find new weapons battle other people and all kinds of things as it progresses. It could make a whole lot of money too it could end up as its own Operating System like in the game. A real artificially intelligent app/OS game or whatever you could take it in a whole lot of places really. Someone needs to work on this idea.

Well, if I were to make a NetNavi program it wouldn't be a game. It would be a useful AI virtual assistant that would sort of combine Siri with Google Now. Like, it could intelligently predict what you wanna know and would know if you are interested in something specific during that time (like, say, an upcoming video game release) and it would help you with your life so that you don't have to open a billion different apps in order to do a single thing. One app (or rather, one OS) would be able to do everything and people would be able to download add-ons but not apps. The experience would have to be uniformed and everything should be accessible by the Navi so that it can do its job.
Of course, it could still have a gaming aspect. In the GBA games and in the anime NetNavis are personal assistants/anti-virus programs first and online gaming avatars (NetBattlers) second. So that would be nice. People who are only interested in a personal assistant could use the Navi that way while people who are into gaming could also train them to battle.

That sounds perfect lol i mean i honestly think it can be done and would love for thos to happen. Someone could even make a custom ROM or something or Launcher for now til it gets out there and does good cause all that coding and programs to make this would be expensive in the beginning. Someone could create an add on to a rom already til it gets popular or anything really lol i jus wanna see it done i been waiting since i was a kid and i know its possible now.

Hahah I've been waiting for it since I was 6 xD (I'm 15 now)
Now that I've finished all the 6 MMBN GBA games I want a NetNavi / PET more than ever. And since nobody is making one -even though it seems so obvious and the resources are here for the most part- I'd be happy to be the one who creates it IF I had a team of scientists, engineers and programmers to help me. But I don't. And I don't know how to code. But if I ever learn how to, I promise I'm gonna do everything I can to make this a reality for everyone.

The resources are ~mostly~ here. What about the killer AI? I don't think we could make such smart bots... Maybe in a couple of decades and with enough dedication.... Actually, we might be pretty close; take a look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Tqt2TurCnI (you're gonna love it). Gotta get more info on this thing. Also, take a look at this amazing concept: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8iGWzG5wyU .
I think I'm gonna work on some "prototypes" (sketches and stuff) during the summertime once the finals are over. It would be fun. And who knows. I'm interested in programming so I might learn how to code and make a working PET prototype one day :silly:

This is exactly what I was hoping for when I posted this a while back. I'm glad its been seen and talked about. I personally don't have the time or skills to do it but I have the ideas and concepts of how it should work and how it should look. If you are able to take it and run that would be really awesome. Like I said before, I'm just glad I'm not the only one who thinks its a good idea!

Hey guys, hope this is still an open topic because I've been planning on starting a project to create an AI suitable for an app like this, then continue to work on it until it becomes a general AI. (or "super AI" capable of emotion, perception, interaction, education etc. like how human are to an extent) I've been a fan of Megaman for a while but took most interest in MMBN series because of the net navis and what they could be capable of. Toonwar, do you mind discussing to me your game plan lay out for this? you, or anyone else here really can just E-mail me at "[email protected]" in case Im not online at the moment or something. look forward to the dawn of navis and maybe a team that could help!
Hey guys:
Just wanted to say I'm passion too about AI...and love net navi's and megaman in general. I think it would be pretty cool if we could put together a team...even if not everyone can program well...we can all put our minds together and start getting the ball rolling right? Looking forward to this..

So you're best at making websites? The way I always envisioned the "jacking-in" and net navi battles would be a website based for navis to battle or meet up (because of course the internet doesnt look like it does in the show, and if navis could discard viruses there wouldnt be a fun battle that comes with it) so I think your skills would become really helpful later on in this! At the moment I'm actually learning the adroid SDK and java coding so that I can know the basics for starting an app for the AI's. It seems like youd be willing to help out in this? It'd be sweet if we could start a team!
