[GUIDE] Connect Wii Controller to G Tablet and Play Games

Hey All. I figured I would do a video tutorial on how to connect the Nintendo Wii controller to the Viewsonic G Tablet. I connected it earlier today and it works great. This is just a basic tutorial showing you what you need and how to use it, but it does not go into detail on the specific options of the programs. Here are the programs that you will need to download from the android market to get started:
1. Romgripper
2. DroidEmuLite
3. WiimoteController
Enjoy!

anyone try this out yet? any issues or tips? Please post if you have found any.
Thanks,
scott

I actually knew how to do this already but the one thing that I'm not sure of is if we can play a two player game on this thing using two wiimotes? I see that the wiimote program sees both controllers but it doesn't do anything while using it in the SNES or tigermame emulators. Hope u can help. Great vid btw.

Epic. So glad I found this. Reinforces my thankfulness for buying this Tab.

can this also be done with a ps3 remote?

The Wii remote also works great with Quake as well. Pretty neat ability of the gtab.

I am unable to locate romgripper via the android marketplace or amazon marketplace on the gtablet. Anyone have a valid link to the apk?

Works fine on Brilliant Corners. Was using it earlier to play Legend of Zelda quest 2. Not using any guides so this is gonna take a while to beat.

Brilliant Corners? Is that a game?
Are you using stock? I haven't rooted my gtab. Was hoping it would not be necessary.

Anyone able to use the nunchuck joystick as a proper joystick with incremental speed for walking vs. running? I am only able to map up, down, left and right. I expect it's impossible, but it would make n64oid massively more fun.

Brilliant Corners is a ROM with a 1.2 bootloader by roebeet. It's a lot like Vegan Tab 5.1.1.
I'm using nesoid to play the roms & the wiimotecontoller app to connect the wiimote via bluetooth.

[Q] PSX4Droid V3.0

Has anyone got any games running on the Psx4Droid? I can't seem to get it working. It freezes on me when i load the game.
I tried 2 games, cat with a hat. (Small download size just to check)
Chrono cross.
Beware you cant load games while the play has a memorycard connection to your pc. Found that out the hard way.

Jea, can confirm. Spyro the Dragon don´t work, DOA, FiFa and so on. Hangs on start and crash after some time.
*Edit*
Tested the 3.0.1 - still don´t work. Testet another BIOS file - still don´t work.
Try yourself:
http://www.zodttd.com/wp/2011/04/psx4droid-updated-to-3-0-1/

same just hangs on startup

I think it's an issue with Android >2.2, as his blog also mentions problems with the Xoom and Nexus S devices. He's working on it, so I'm sure it'll be fixed soon.

3.0.5.. Havent tested it yet though.

Downloaded from zodttd but it just froze on start up every time so couldn't use it. I have been told FPSE works well but not tried it myself.

FPSE works extremely well.
Had a bit of Tekken then Kula World, it's all good.

Yeah 3.0.5 not doing so good.. lots of force close or wait..
Will give fpse a go..

Psx4droid sucks all the games play almost in slow motion use fpse its way better and not just a big waste of time

Dungeon Hunter 2 3d Problem

I recently bought Dungeon Hunter 2 from Gameloft.Installed it,it then downloads the data but once it finishes downloading the data and tries to start the game i get the message "The application Dungeon Hunter 2 (process com.gameloft.android.TBFV.GloftD2HP) has stopped unexpectedly.please try again.
Then i am forced to close.
I have tried different sites to download it and the same thing happens.
Does anyone else have this problem ? ,i know at least one other person this has happened to.
Has anyone managed to get Dungeon Hunter 2 to work ??

Its not working i bought the game and had the same

USA
There are reports that it works only with the USA ROM (Optimus 3D).
Can anyone confirm this?

Not sure if this is correct,the game is also been sold in Poland.Also I have downloaded the apk from Gameloft Australia.

I have the exact same problem. Just bought DH2 3D and after downloading the Data files, it force closes!

I downloaded it in Poland and it's fully working

Thats interesting,the first time i went to buy this game was from the Poland website,i bought it through my pc,not my phone.
So i paid for it and when i went to download it, the page said i couldnt download it because my phone was not a LG Optimus 3d.
So then i went and bought it again from the Gameloft America website and was able to download it ,but thats when i got the force close error,next day i tried to download from the Australian website though my phone and still got the force close thing.
So i have paid for the game twice and its still not working , i wonder if the Poland apk is any different from the USA and Australian apk ?
Are you using the Thrill or Optimus and what country are you from ? thanks

What firmware u use??

Stock v10.E rooted, but NOT with Performance Pack 2x

It's been removed from the US site now.
I tried it on my thrill, same error as others here.
I did notice mine was under normal apps and not the 3d section?
Could this be a clue or is it only that way on my phone?

Same here.

maybe a simple move of the folder location can fix it?

Looks like they have fixed the problem with DH2 ,it is now working for me using the latest version.Still does not show in my 3d menu only in the app menu.. but at least it is working.

is it just me, some of the 3d game has very poor fps .
dungeon hunter 2 in 3d mode is not very smooth??
are you guys getting the same experience

My FPS seems fine but the only thing that appears to be in 3D is the hud, the characters and environment are all in 2D. I turned my device to the left slightly so I'm viewing from a very slight right angle and than the environments come into 3D but the text and hud look bad. Also DH2 doesn't even appear in my 3D apps section so that may be part of the issue. MC2 and Spiderman both work alright and appear in the 3D section.

My dh2 works fine but it's not in the 3d menu.

Apparently it has Xperia play controls too. I think this has made my week (downloading now, I'll report when I have it running)
Update: downloaded (25MB apk) and played around with it (single player, no online (I have a terrible internet connection at home)) For being an early release, it looks good. I am definitely looking forward to repaying old memories with de_dust

You can also map the shoot button to whichever hardware button, I use the L Shoulder and the DPad to move, and look with the touchscreen. Even in this early beta stage, you can still play against other players on just your data connection.

How do you map the keys?

I am not able to access the page. Says I don't have the reqd permissions. Help?
Can anyone link to the APK here?

I tested it a few days ago and it was way better than expected.
You can walk with the dpad, but all other Play controls are not integrated yet.
The game itself was smooth and lagfree (+30 fps), but the bullets are delayed a bit.
One thing that I really do not like is that there is an aimhelper, but thats it.
I think this will get a really nice port.

Hmmm...
Downloaded an old version 1st by mistake and it worked perfect.
But then upgraded to the latest (1.97) so I could use my Xplay controls...
Now it just hanfs on 'Map Loaded, Connecting' when I try to join a server....
Any ideas why?
It worked great on the older version (minus xplay controls).

[HOWTO] Get most Gameloft games compatible with the S4 HTC One X

To get most games compatible with the S4 HTC One X, we need to edit our build.prop file to match that of a Galaxy Note.
Also, there is a multitouch bug in AOKP and CM9 right now where if you hold one finger and put on another, as soon as you pick up one finger the system will stop recognizing the other finger as well. This leads to a really annoying FPS experience. I'd recommend running another custom ROM that is built off stock for now if you plan on playing a game that uses this type of control.
1. Navigate to /system/ and open the build.prop file from a file manager of your choice that has root access (I prefer Root Explorer from the Play Store)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
2. Change the following values to the ones in bold:
ro.product.model=GT-N700
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=GT-N700
ro.product.device=galaxynote
ro.product.board=MSM8960
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
ro.build.product=galaxynote
The values are case sensitive by the way.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
3. Reboot and then try to download the game data again. There should no longer be a "This game is not compatible with your device" error.
Having issues? Make sure there are no other instances of ro.product.model in your build.prop. Some ROMs may do this. If it does have another instance, delete it.

I will add more working games as people tell me that they are working through this method.
I know the games downloaded via the gameloft website have been working fine, but for those of us who download the games from the market from other devices and want to download it on our S4 HTC One X now, this works.
Thanks to thatg for originally providing me with his build.prop file that he modded.
Please thank this post if this helped you!
Also, I don't take responsibility for any games that you might buy and then expect to work but they don't. This may not work for everyone (it should, but still) but if it doesn't, don't blame me for making you spend more money :/

Will this allow us to actually purchase the game from gameloft or the play store or do we need to already have the apk?
Edit: I was able to download it but I am getting the not compatible error. Are there other lines in the build.prop that need to be edited?

I believe it has been working fine from gameloft.com, since they have some special "for evita" section on their website or something. I personally have never bought off their website though.
The apk from the market doesn't work with the HTC One X though, so I just grabbed the APK from my old device and put it on here, did the mod, and it worked.
I'm not sure about whether it will allow you to download the game from the Play Store, though I would assume it would now and no longer display any compatibility issues.
Also, what game were you trying? Did you reboot after saving the changes?

I couldn't download it from Gameloft but did from the play store. I just edited the build.prop again to reflect the SOC that's in the Note (MSM8660) and am rebooting now. Hopefully this works.
Edit: Still didn't work, there's gotta be something else that needs to be changed.

This just made my day. I loved this on my iPhone and was pissed as hell when it wasn't compatible with our phone. Thanks man.
edit: Wow, this runs great on the One X, smooth as hell. My only complaint is that there are some effects missing from this version vs. the iPhone version (heat from gun is one that comes to mind) but otherwise it looks gorgeous. No idea why they wouldn't release it for our phone.

installed and updated but..
has anyone had the problem of screen being black or flickering?

Can someone post a video/pics of NOVA 3 running on your S4 One X?
PS: About the special effects, Hamdir from the international One X forums thinks that the resolution is the deciding factor for whether the game will run with full effects or not. Supposedly, if the 3 dot menu button is there, the game will run with full effects. If it isn't, then the game won't run with full effects. i.e if your resolution is lower than 1280 by 720, then it'll run with full effects. Can anybody confirm this? Additionally, Chainfire3d can also be used to get the full effects running. Link to original post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27306438&postcount=39

kinda off topic, but does anyone know if doing this will let the One X run google wallet? I've been dying to try it.

Google Wallet isn't working because it doesn't have the correct permissions. Doing this won't help unfortunately.

I have a question about this method, Since we can spoof the system check to get these games working, do you think it is possible to spoof so it looks like a oneX T3?
So we can get some of the Nvidia games going, or do the software checks also look for hardware?

It depends I guess. Some games have very well written code to prevent it from running on other platforms. Dark Meadow comes to mind.
One way is to run Chainfire3d or Chainfire3d Pro, but that seems to only have limited success.
As for games like NOVA 3, see my post above

There are a few effects missing but not many, the game looks ridiculously good. I had this on my iphone 4S and of course it had full effects on that thing, and the difference between the two is negligible.
On a side note, once the game is installed and all the resources downloaded, you can revert to your old build.prop and the game still runs.
