Quake 3 Arena

I've installed this and got it working, but I can't change the controls.
Has anybody else tried and had any success?
I was thinking volume for forwards/backwards, camera for fire and options for weapon select. Just doesn't respond when I try setting them through the options screen. I can look around ok though...
It runs VERY well! I've put everything to highest settings and it flies through the demo.

Can you access the Console SL?
Nice to see you here, BTW

Looks cool. I'll need to try to dig up my Q3 CD for the files to give this a try.
How much space does it take up?

Hi there can't get into console, and uses about 500MB

Hmmn, then I'm out of useful suggestions, on my old Symbian Handsets running Quake keymapping was always via console...

I'm playing Quake 3 on my X10 right now. You need the latest build, Im still to new to post links but it is called "kwaak3_test_v11c.apk Test build with now stable audio (at least on the Milestone)" and you can get it from the Kwaak3 page.
Then you can set the volume buttons and camera buttons. I have volume up as forward, volume down as backward and camera as shoot. I also set mouse sensitivity to high because that makes things alot easier. Now only if PS3 controllers worked with android...

Cool! that works great, wish the X10 had a dpad now

Hmmm! If I go to demos and load a demo it runs great, but if I try to play a game it is so slow and stuttery it is unplayable. I have looked at the settings and the screen is set to 640x480 with everything on default.
Any ideas?
Cheers.

I've noticed that, it's the portals that do it. turn to the side and walk round it and it's all smooth.

I've found its just the first map, if you choose skirmish at the menu, you can use the rest of the maps which run quite well.

Thanks guys, it was the first map that I tried

Mame4droid - New MAME emulator on the market

Haven't tried it yet, but grab it quick... emulates 0.37b5 ROM list. Yes, it supports Xperia Play buttons.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.seleuco.mame4all&feature=search_result
Project page: http://code.google.com/p/imame4all/

Nice find. Testing romset now

I prefer this to jrioni, it has a better user interface.
Games run at good speed, just as good as jrioni, and I find the sound better in this.
Still no save states that I can see though.
Posting for tiger kings emulator to own them all. Mame needs save states to be functional imho. I play for 5 minutes at a time at work and can't progress in games without save states.

The good thing about this emulator is that it saves all your high scores. with Jromi you have to manually save and load your high scores.
My Metal Slugs and CPS2 games dont seem to work though.

They are *arcade* games. They're only meant to be played for 5 minutes at a time. Only purpose for savestates is if you are cheating your way through a game with infinite quarters.

Totally disagree with this.
Some games take 30+ minutes to beat and complete. Some are even longer taking 1 hour+ to beat.
You forget that this is a mobile device. Which means you are playing games on the move.
People playing on trains, aeorplanes, cars, 10 minute work breaks, sitting at the bus stop, sitting on the toilet (yea i do this ), etc etc etc
You want to continue your game, but at a later date.

This sentence makes zero sense if you sit to think about it.
"Infinite Quarters" are there whether you have save states or not
Completing metal slugs, alien vs predator, final fight, street fighter, strider, rampage, ghould n ghosts, heck LOADS of games take ALOT longer than 5 minutes.
If you played ghould n ghosts for 5 minutes at a time, you would forever be playing the first level.
What is the point in that?
Yes, it is inconclusive, save states ARE needed.
However i have some unfortunate news, MAME4ALL will NEVER have save states, since it is based on a version of MAME that doesnt have them either.
Our only hope is to see what magic Tiger King can produce.

Anyway, no disrespect to Jrioni, i was one of the people that loved and bought his version of Mame.
I support him ALL the way.
But this version of Mame i prefer, the UI is superior to Jrioni. And since it is free, there is no need to purchase Jrioni anymore.
Anyone who wants to play Mame games, this is now the best version.

Glad I held off from buying Jrioni now. Was waiting for save states.
This seems better, though without save states as well.
...and to say Save States are not needed on a mobile device is well...I'm not going to get into it again...but its pretty stupid.

does Mame4droid support dip switches?
reason why i ask its pointless playing mame games for me on medium setting, i like to crank the difficulty up on games, otherwise no challenge !

No it doesnt.
Which is quite annoying because i cant change the analog sensitivity for games like Paperboy, which is unplayable on Mame4Droid because he steers to the left all the time.
Jrioni's graphics seem to be a bit better too. Mame4droid is a bit blockier.
Sound and speed works best on Mame4Droid though. And Mame4Droid is far more user friendly in setting up screen sizes etc.

mame4droid support dip switches u can enable it during in games by pressing select+start at the same time will bring up the menu, only the bad side is the graphic blockier but enable smooth graphic the games lag if it can fixed this then this is the best emu u can get for play.

Does the APP comes with roms or do you have to download them if so from where?! does the app run well on the sony play?

Yes!
Dip switches work.
This is hands down the best Mame emulator for Android. The only thing that can top this is save states or support for newer ROM sets.
Guy above. Don't ask for roms here. They are easily findable with any search engine.

for the roms to work with this Emulator what file type do the roms need to be?

It tells you on the market download page

I must be doing something wrong because even though sound is a bit better than Jrioni's, this emus is much slower, almost unplayable. So I will stick to Jrioni.

What games are you seeing that are slower?

For instance Three Wonders, and Mortal Kombat 2 does not work. On a second attempt I uninstalled it and downloaded from Market and works fine now.

FYI Three Wonders works perfectly in Tiger Arcade 2.20

I'm trying to put this on my ATT Captivate and I can not get the games to show up on the program. I know that I have the right versions of the games. After installing the program, I checked the SD card to see if a ROMs folder was created. There wasn't any so I created a ROMs/Mame4all/roms folder which didn't help. I tried to move the program to the SD card, but I couldn't see the folder when I put the card in a reader. What am I doing wrong?
Never mind. It was on the phone. I was able to see the folder after plugging the phone directly into the computer.

Droidmote.....I could really use some help

What's going on guys? I just started another thread recently but its for good reason!: I just got my Xoom and I'm trying to pimp it out to the most baller degree...
I'm a huge video game nerd and I've been DREAMING about connecting my Xoom to my HDTV, and playing Final Fantasy from my couch using my Xperia play as a controller.....
But, alas, as per all things both technological and amazing, it is not usable for me upon installation and minor tweaking....everything connects and works OK but the buttons are extremely laggy and only every other button press registers....as a result I can't really play games or do anything with it.
I know its not that the port isn't open because if it was closed then it wouldn't work at all right?
And I'm currently using the EOS ICS ROM and it does not seem I can use the wifi direct feature.
Anyone have any ideas as to why its so laggy and what I can do to rectify it??
thanks so much in advance....once I fix this I will be truly ecstatic.
Btw if there are any apps that would allow me to use the hardware keys of my Xperia for my Xoom whether by Bluetooth or something that would be helpful too. But from the ones I've used you can only use the touchscreen....

final fantasy work in an emulator? if yes the problem is of emulator. try it in others game to see the difference.

I tried it on Genesis and SNES...and on home screen....same input lag everywhere. Any specific ideas as to what could be bogging it down?
Thanks Zulu! I can't wait to start having fun with this awesome app.

contact me in private, i send to you my email and you can chat with me in google chat. i want help you because many others people with xoom not have problem.

Thanks to Dyelon that made the beta testers with his Xperia Play, we have resolved a bug with the phisical buttons of the Xperia.
Now you can play games on Xoom with the phisical buttons of Xperia Play

zulu i need some help i can not for the life of me get the button mapping to work i have a xoom working with galaxy i have the client on galaxy and server on my xoom i have put the droidmote kl and kcm in the right files. i have looked at ur posts and copied some mappings and saved them i rebooted my device and everything but it just wont work. i have played cordy on it and worked the media player but i am trying to play some nova 2 or mc3 or asphalt 6 but i just cant get it can u help me

Now all is automatic also on xoom and you can do all with DroidMote, you can also play with games that support only touch actions.

I don't have it, it is $5.04 in the app store. I just emailed the developer to ask if our Xperia Play controls will work with this. The Videos on Youtube look awesome (Playing WoW and others) But I don't want to shell out the cash if the only option is onscreen controls.
Thoughts???

Hi Rob!
Yes it should support the XPeria Play but I "hardcoded" values for buttons like (cross/triangle/square/select/start).
I will try soon (< 2 weeks) to add an option that you will be able to set a specific action like (spacebar, d, control, ...) for each buttons of xperia.
I add your request in my backlog. I've received feedbacks and now i'm fixing bugs and add new features.
I will release a new version (Kainy 1.01) this Sunday .
Best Regards and thanks for your comments, suggestions and post on XDA,
JS.

Definitely going to buy this. Been waiting for this for a long time.

Does the pc need to be switched on for this to work?
Sent from my R800i using XDA

Yes, the PC will have to be switched on. The way it, if I understood it right, is that it streams the video to your phone and then adds controls on your phones screen.

I am very interested in this app and the idea. If the analogs work and the gameplay is smooth even over a 3g network as advertised then I'm on it. I am just curious how that would work and if there is be a demo to try.

i emailed the dev.
and wow,fast response.
i'm asking about the internet minimum requirement and the plus value than another diff remote app.
here is the answer:
For the Local Wifi is really fast. You should get a 30-60fps depends of your phone and computer.
And for the internet connection, there are 2 mains factors, your internet provider for upload (computer->internet) and your phone download bandwidth (internet->phone).
I have a really low upload connection at home. So I optimized the software to be able to work at 0.5 mbps for "internet mode".
And if the speed is too low, I've created 4 types of quality image between low->high quality.
I think the plus values is customization like you can customize your games and they keep the settings.
So if you customize Skyrim, after customize wow, and come back to play skyrim, you'll get skyrim settings.
And each applications has 5 pages, so you can only put minimal buttons and switch pages.
I definetely want to buy this app next month,still wait my salary pay off.

Imagine you are not at your computer right now, so boring and want to continue playing Mass Effect 3, Darksiders, PS2 games, Dreamcast games, Gamecube games, Wii games through various types of emulator etc.
While sometimes I'll leave my laptop at the first floor and kind of wanted to play PC games downstairs at my sofa or far...far..away from my home. It's very usefull. It's like your own ONLIVE system. I have use this kind of thing before with PSPDisp. But it's limited to WiFi connectivity. But Kainy can connect using WiFi/3G/4G...Wow!!!

I see, not much of a point for me since I wouldn't keep the laptop on probably but useful for others

I would love to see an advert version of this, I want to try it so bad but I just can't pay for it. Plus, I saw something about a laptop as I skimmed through this, try an older game. The ONLY reason why I want this app is so I can play Grandia 2, since the Dreamcast emulator for Android hasn't come out, and the PC version is SO low end, I'll be playing once I remember how I got it to run on XP. Stupid Win98 only titles. lol

Final Fantasy Dimensions - Perfect on Xperia Play's Gamepad (Video & GKP inside)

Originally, I wasn't intending on buying this to keep... but I got owned by the refund time limit, so now I'm stuck with it.
Things didn't go entirely wrong though; things actually went astonishingly well!
Of course getting navigation to work with this would be easy because that would just be a stoic virtual joystick... but the in-battle commands would end up being a bit more complicated since menus are placed dynamically.
After messing around with FFDimensions for a while, I noticed that the in-battle menu navigation was operable via swipe-motions, which allowed me to create a GameKeyboard profile that works not only with on-foot navigation, but FULLY in battle! This is just as good as being Xperia Play Optimized! GKP is in the attachments, and I will probably be posting a video shortly.
EDIT: Video
Have fun

very nice! I'll be trying this out.

Got owned by time limit refund...that made lol....game looks really good but dam 20 bux...crazinness yo!

I imported the gpk and nothing happens in game when keys are pressed. Am I missing something?

You mean the game for which they dare to ask that much does not even have native XP controller support? That's insane.

Final Fantasy Dimensions just force closes when i try to open it on my Verizon Xperia Play...
Edit - It works on 2.3.4 gingerbread perfectly. It also works on ICS/Jelly Bean but the sound skips or pops. It doesn't work on 2.3.3 Gingerbread which is what I had installed when I tried it the first time.
I'm sticking with 2.3.4 since I don't use this phone for anything other than gaming and therefore don;t care about gmail/gtalk sync.
