I have a motorola zoom tablet. I am using Remote Desktop Client by: Xtralogic, Inc. I have access to my laptop at home while traveling over Verizon's Network. Everything is working fine, except I am unable to play World of Warcraft on the Tablet via remote desktop access. I have researched port information and have setup router via all listed port settings. World of Warcraft attempts to load and then I get error " Running World of Warcraft through a Remote Desktop connection is not supported. Exiting program." Is there a work around?
Thanks!
Have you tried using free vnc for the pc and android free vnc app for the tab? Perhaps WOW wouldn't detect that connection, I haven't tried to play, because I don't have a tablet. Just a thought though.
You can't render 3D applications through an RDP connection with any kind of speed at all. If you could get it to work it would look like a slideshow and be impossible to interact with. You should bring a laptop, or chill out and not raid while you're traveling.
When WoW becomes your job it's time to quit.
Quit his job, or WoW?
BTW, newest versions of RDP do support some 3D acceleration (look for info on RemoteFX). But yeah, don't expect to run any games that way, for multiple reasons. And don't expect to see this on any tablet or phone,as I doubt Microsoft makes the whole API public, so third party clients will always have limited support for RDP features.

Assuming you can get it to play in windowed mode, you should be able to do some things with splashtop. Try the free version first: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.splashtop.remote.free . I can sort of play starcraft 2 with this, and I definitely play ps2 and dreamcast with it, so give it a shot!

Try Splashtop it works for nearly every game that can be run in windowed mode.
We have some setup information here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=999133
You will want a wireless keyboard or a bluetooth controller to play with, I don't know if splashtop supports a mouse though.
If I can get my XOOM to play left 4 dead 2. You can probably get yours to play wow.
Well for $1.99 I couldn't resist. Downloaded splashtop, set a few things in my routers configuration and bam... WoW on my Xoom. I highly recommend a bluetooth keyboard and mouse of some sort if you're really dead set on doing this.
One drawback is you have to set your audio to 2 channel if its anything else, or it will simply mute.
I'm upping a youtube video now.

here you go
thanks for all the responses,this was for a coworker,who had to have her crack on the go, with all your suggestions and help she was able to accomplishes this, and now seeing her play wow on the xoom, i'm going to set this up for my gtab and relive yesteryear playing civ and half-life.
Lol.
Well your friend is going to have a less than perfect experience as there is hardly any mouse control at all... and if she just wants to be able to chat there's a much easier way to do it via the remote auction house app.
I'll save the armchair psychiatry for someone else but.... *snort*.
thank you
Thank you both! Of course it would be no where near the quality of PC gaming. Its just one of those itches I had to scratch. thank you again.

Lol, no problem. I tried to run around last night with a keyboard and mouse and found out real quick that splashtop doesn't translate mouseclicks or right clicks very well. Their solution to click and hold is to tap and then hold and drag which caused my POV to spin way out of control and from then out I couldn't see anything so I just logged out lol.
I would prefer the $2.99 a month remote auction house service to this.
I have to admit though it's terribly fun to show off
I'm not a hardcore player and I work too much. However I still find the time to connect my Wii remote and play mario and galaga on the Xoom. Oh yes, its very much fun to show both of them!
Here's a quick review of playing SC2 on the Transformer via Splashtop HD. it works pretty well! Let me know what games you guys have played on your android!
EDIT: silly me, forgot the link. lol

i love android
it's funny but unfortunatly, till we can't have a 1:1 mouse control with right click there s no way to play seriously a game this way.
But i would love too!

Wife and son use laptops. I use desktop connected to TV. We all huddle in the living room when we play. If we want to watch the TV while playing, I simply remote through SplashTop HD. Only need right click to remove spells from hand, so it's almost flawless. (I do have the ASUS dock)
Right-Clicking
I have a similar problem with Memoir 44 Online via splashtop HD. Right-click does not work.
I guess we can only hope splashtop builds in some options to support alternate keys, or of course, fixes it.

Yeah its a pretty big oversight.
Just wondering if any has tried to par up a PS3 controller to the Triumph using the Sixaxis Controller app on the Market? Since the Triumph has a HDMI out the combo would be great for games on the TV.
I dunno man, I have no gaming system. But there is a fully-functional accelerometer in the Triumph and a decent compass too (does that even help?) so it should be a possibility.
Yes they work.
I have played a gripton of emu games on my triumph. I play ocarina of time using the wii+nunchuck and I also use my dualshock from time to time. Make sure if you are on stock to get the umph kernel to overclock your phone(don't overclock it too much, I usually go for 1.3-1.5) when you are using n64oid. If you're on CM7 grab isaac's kernel... I have yet to try the psx emulator... I'm going to download some psx games tommorrow and try some ps1 classics and see how that works out. Starfox however was streaming not bad actually, almost no lag, but sometimes an ocasional hiccup comes up, just pause and resume, if the screen freezes. Damn I digressed! YES PS3 CONTROLLERS (using the sixaxis app) AND THE WIIMOTE (using the wiimote controller app) ARE WORKING ON TRIUMPH!
However a while back I wanted to pair up 2 dualshocks on the n64oid but I could only pair one. Maybe by now this feature has been implented? I'm going to check this out tommorrow too.
Glad to know ill be able to use the sixaxis app with games.

Yes, I have also successfully paired and played a Nintendo 64, Super Nintendo, Nintendo, and PS1 games with my PS3 controller. It takes a lil while to first setup the bluetooth pairing and then mapping the controller to the specific buttons (which you may have to change for certain games to play right) but it is quite fun!
I did have trouble pairing two controllers as well. I'm curious to see if that is even possible!
Is it possible to either an Xbox360 or PS3 controller with Android Games such as Sprinkle, Angry Birds, Dungeon Defenders, T-Racer, etc...?
I'm also getting mixed info on whether or not its possible to use PS3 and Xbox360 controllers Wirelessly?

not sure about those games but i use a wii remote for all my emulator games.
The game/application must explicitly support it. The only ones I know of that do right now are the emulators, Riptide, and the new Shadowgun(awesome btw).
I think you can use the XBOX 360 controller wirelessly with the USB dongle, which kinda defeats the purpose. No clue about PS3
Thanks, that's what I figured.
You can use the ps³ controller wirelessly with an app called sixaxis. Works amazing on shadowgun and emulators. Im sure itd also work with riptide but i dont have that game.
Thanks! I'll try it out.

The PS3 SixAxis app does the same thing as the WiiMote app. It binds the buttons to letters... which can be MAPPED in Emulators and games that support button bindings.
So Wireless gameplay on native android apps is probably a no go (except ShadowRun since it supports button bindings).
WIRED gameplay is totally different. Android supports WIRED controllers out of the box since 3.1 or 3.2... This should work... to some extent. Your using a controller for a game which requires touch input... may not work well. YMMV!

which driver do you use? I used RWiimote back in the day with my G2 without issue, but it immediately force closes on the transformer.
I got sixaxis working great last night, but it slugs the game down pretty bad. But at the time I was just rooted with bone stock otherwise, I'm in the process of flashing a custom rom, hopefully runs better with CPU tweaks. The only issue I was having with emulators was that I had to specifically select "Use Input Method" in SNES Emu, and I think N64 the option is called Use IME.

theres other games that it works well with like reckless racing and riptide gp. ive read about others working as well. im sure a quick google will bring up a decent list of complatible games.
I plan on purchasing an Asus Transformer Pad 300, or perhaps a Prime/Infinity 700 should I manage to scrape up the extra cash, to serve as a replacement for my current laptop. Android more than satisfies my daily use and, with a tablet instead of a laptop, there is also an option for some portability plus using a tablet is much more comfortable than using a laptop when sitting on a sofa. However, there are two things I shall miss from Windows...Microsoft Office and Steam. I've heard of an application called Splashtop which allows you to access your PC remotely. Using this, will I be able to run Microsoft Office and Steam games such as Fallout: New Vegas on my Asus tab? Also, is it compatible with the Transformers' keyboard docks? Will I, for example, be able to type in Office using the keyboard dock and then save it to my PC or use the keyboard dock plus a USB mouse as a means of control for games such as Fallout?
Splashtop Play Store Page Is Here
EDIT 1: I forgot to ask whether or not the application also transmit sound? Would I be able to open iTunes on the PC and play music from there, for example, on my tab?
EDIT 2: What is the general performance of the streaming like over a decent WiFi broadband connection? If I were to stream Fallout: New Vegas, for example, would I get around 30fps?

Having used splash top on iOS as well as android, I would say that your hopes are very very high and I would in no expect to play games.

Well, that's what I have seen demonstrations of it doing on YouTube? Plus, pictures of the app on the store also run games as well. Would it at least fair running Microsoft Office remotely and allow me to type using the keyboard dock?
Yes you can play games on it. I played Runescape (don't laugh ) on my device without lagg.
Yes it has an option so you can transmit sounds.
And performance is just great.

Thank you. Will it work with the keyboard dock and a USB mouse from an Asus Transformer?

I think your internet speed must be quite slow, as it uses your internet network.
Anyone know whether or not Splashtop will work with USB mouse and the keyboard dock of the Transformer Pad 300?
I currently use the Win8 Metro Testbed edition of Splashtop from my Prime to my MacBook running Windows 8.
Under normal usage, the OS stutters, but it is not too bad. You are never getting the feeling that you are actually using Win8 with your Prime but that's ok. (Same applies to win7 usage with different Splashtop versions, even THD).
The whole thing also uses the keyboard dock of the prime, you can use it as a mouse for example and the cursor on the PC updates (after a bit of lag). Typing also works great, no problems here.
I use it to watch videos on my Prime, but since I only watched Cartoons like the Simpsons & Family Guy, I didn't notice any lag or stuttering. Sound also comes in sync, it's working great. Again, I haven't tested this with a real movie, not to speak about 720p/1080p.
i tried playing games using splashtop but sometimes the screen resolution of the game in the computer becomes small.
