[GAME] PrBoom4Android 1.2.0-beta

In early 2009 Vladimir Silva released a port of Doom for the G1. It used the PrBoom engine and supported use of the hardware keyboard that the G1 had. As we all know, many devices coming out now do not have a hardware keyboard. So, I've taken that code and added in on-screen multitouch controls so more people can enjoy playing the game once again.
It's been a while since I released Doom for Adroid (FREE), which was later removed from the android market. That was my fault for allowing the game to be able to download the original .WAD files. Since I now own a Nexus One, I wanted to play Doom again, but without a hardware keyboard that was going to be a bit difficult. I've been hard at work rectifying this issue and I am pleased to offer up a beta to all of my fellow xda-developers.com users.
The project is currently being hosted on google code @ http://code.project.com/p/prboom4android

A quick and dirty HowTo
http://code.google.com/p/prboom4android/wiki/HowTo
Change Log
1.2.5-beta
------------
+ libprboom_jni is now compiled with network support
+ HUD messages are passed on to Android and displayed as a Toast
1.2.4-beta
------------
+ libdoom_jni.so is now freshly compiled with NDK and called libprboom_jni.so
+ Changed Run CheckBox to CheckedTextView so touching the text works
+ Fire/Enter is now accomplished by touching somewhere in the middle of the screen
It actually takes up 50% of the screen in the middle. This will help avoid mis-fires

------------
+ Created custom images for buttons, checkboxes, textviews, etc.
+ Added a DooM.ttf font to use on the main screen
1.2.2-beta
------------
+ Game screen now rendered to a SurfaceView for better performance and frame rates.
1.2.1-beta
------------
+ Increased height of l/r turning to compensate for issues with multitouch.
1.2.0-beta
------------
+ Added all necessary on-screen controls for touchscreen only devices to play Doom.
+ Minor tweaks and code clean up.
Since I am actively working on this, please help support the project by reporting any issues you have by submitting an issue at http://code.google.com/p/prboom4android/issues/list
Of course you can always leave a comment in this thread as well. but reporting the issue is a great help and can only benefit all of you that want to play Doom on your Android powered devices.
UPDATE:
As of 1.2.5-beta network play is included.
Please check out this thread on google groups for info on how to play on a server.
Thanks for your support!

Hi Melchizedeck,
you should try neogeo bios and roms from rom-world.com (but not the neogeo ones, the mame ones). I'll try to add debug output on rom loading for next release.

No idea how to set it up, i try to load a rom and it just flashes a screen with the controls for a sec and its back to the rom list
I already have the bios in the same dir as roms

Works for me! Metal Slug on the go without using my PSPGO! Thanks bro!

no idea what im doing wrong... too late for a refund... please help me!
My roms are zipped and detected, they work fine on pspgo and neorage

No problem for a refund mauaus, just send me your order number.
I did try mslugx.zip and ssideki.zip and both worked here. You should (if you have the time) download neogeo.zip from rom world and mslugx.zip from there too to be sure (the mame version one).
Can i also ask what is your device?

[APP][2.2+] GTA3 Graphical Settings + Launcher [v1.4]

Just a small quick and dirty app that let you change some of the GTA3 default settings.
Original settings are backed up to (GTA3 Folder)/files/GTA3/gta3.gtsettingslauncher.set. If the app completely fails or you want to use the original settings after uninstalling the app, just copy this file back to (...)/gta3.set.
When your gta3.set is missing, please start the game and go to the display options. Change some settings and then hit "restore defaults". Then try again and start the settings app.
If there is still no settings file, get one from this forum (e.g. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20950484&postcount=29) or google. After launching the game with the downloaded settings file go to the in-game display settings an click "restore defaults". That should fix some problems with screen width and height.
Available Settings:
Shadows: On/Off
Lighting: On/Off
Resolution: High/Low
Rendering Distance: 18 Steps
Blur: On/Off *
* Blur is not working for me. The setting is always disabled when starting the game. Maybe it is working on other devices (Tegra?).
Currently only tested on I9100 with GTA3 German. Please let me know if it is working or not.
Changes:
2012/01/03 - v1.4:
catch more exceptions
changed launcher, it now hopefully will find the target more often
2012/01/02 - v1.3:
added another external_sd path (now searching in "/mnt/sdcard/external_sd/Android/data/", "/mnt/sdcard/Android/data/", "/mnt/sdcard/external_sd/data/" for package)
2011/12/31 - v1.2:
added launcher icon
added blur setting (which might have no effect)
changed namespace - please uninstall the old version manually. I used an example package found on the internet as skeleton and forgot to change it, sry
2011/12/29 - v1.1:
added external_sd to search path
Make sure to download the LATEST version.

Thankyou excellent work dev,works great.
My device is zte skate
And at 900Mhz on Atomic 2.5 rom,
Chainfire reduce texture size and quality,
With this app you have created,
It is running good now.

I just get instant force close when trying to run this. I was looking to try the lower resolution for performance increase.
I'm using a rooted vibrant (t959), with a custom 2.2 rom

When does it crash? Right after starting the settings app or when you try to "Save and Start"?
Can you please also post the path to your gta3.set? Maybe it is a path problem again.

Awesome!
Work perfectly on Xperia play!

It crashes just after starting app.
I fixed it I had to download and copy the file called gta3.set into the correct folder as no file of that name was in the data folder. After I did that the patcher worked fine. :O)
Seems some phones don't create the gta3.set file. Maybe you could include one with the patch or make it auto generate one for people like me. Thanks for the patch. ;0)

Awesome app. I was wondering though, is it possible to integrate more features/mods in the app?
Theres a post on the main page of xda showing mods, also another thread in this same section for gta mods like lamborghini/audi/VW cars, coca cola machines, better texture packs, etc. That would be crazy if you can add those features so we have a all in one mod app for the gta game and can apply them without much messing around. Hopefully that would even help more people add more content to make the game experience even better.

This worked great on my Asus Transformer!
I was surprised to find out the default settings were set so low. Even on my Tegra 2 device. It looks SO much better now.

Thanks for this - works great on my Desire Hd and Haipad M7S - draw distance on low means I can have the effects on and it runs fine on the Desire!

where should i paste this file?anywhere in my sdcard?anyone?plss..
edit: got it work..thanks OP.. ^^

Added a launcher icon and the blur setting. Bluring is not working on my i9100 (it is just disabled by the game while launching), but maybe it will work on other chipsets.
Download is appended to first post.

Not bad.. gave it a go on my transformer and just got 19xx to play. When creating the cache images of any other game like mvc, I kept on getting error messages, something about crc and CPU1 (sorry, I forgot exactly what the message said, but I will check later). The roms are ok as I know for a fact that they work.
One other thing is that I couldn't change directory and the device did not look on my SD card to see if the roms were there or not.
That said, 19xx plays butter smooth, although the on screen controls could be better (ie the cross pad a bit larger as it is very easy to run your fingers out of it). I still have to try with my TF keyboard though.
Good job otherwise. I will test on my EVO 3d and report back.

Are you really going to make the GUI for NeoDroid white?
I know this is minor, but I much prefer the black. Perhaps an option?
Also have you considered using the menu button to open a menu with settings, email, exit, rather the the icons at the top?
For devices with a small screen and lots of roms, every bit of screen space helps.
In any case good work with these projects.
:edit:
I realize this is verison 1.0 and you probably have changes and additions in mind already.
A couple other things I noticed, in Marvel vs Capcom the lower buttons are punches and the uppers are kicks.
And the option to disable sound would be nice.
:edit 2:
I'm having a little trouble mapping hardware buttons. When I press up dpad (on a ps3 controller mapped to the phone's hardware dpad) for the first key, the clear button turns blue (highlighted) and it doesnt map the keypress and move on to the next one. In neodroid the mapping works fine

Works great with the games that are compatible, hope to see more games added in the future and the on screen pad is a bit small would be so much easier if it was enlarged a little bit, but that is my only complaint. This emulator is silky smooth and it's so awesome to bust out STF3 and it play flawlessly!

Will this emulator be able to play CPS1 games?
All the best.
NSCXP2005

- You are probably trying to run a "clone" rom, which need the "parent" rom. Look in the "Compatibility" tab (search button), if there is a line with "parent:xx.zip" then you also need "xx.zip" to run your rom.
- You can just use the "back" button of you device to browse to your roms directory, each time you launch a rom this path will be saved as default rom directory.

- I will see to add an option to change the theme (btw: NeoDroid gui is white since a while now)
- Unfortunatly, google now ask developper to not use the "menu" button anymore, so i add to find another way: the menu bar.
- w00t, i see why this is happening for the buttons mapping, i will investigate in this problem and release a fix soon (in a few days)

For now the emulator need to use cached graphics on your device, so it need to read this cache file a lot during emulation. I had no slowdown on my xperia, but i use a 8GB sdcard. I guess your sdcard is a small one or a slow one.

W00t, i did forget to include that (it was planned!), i'll add that for the next release.

Excellent first release so far, looking very forward to making this my go-to CPS emu. Few things i'd like to point out from someone whos been using emulators on android for years. My config is a Touchpad running CM9 @ stock 1.2ghz dual core.
Sound is off. You can tell immediately from the insert coin sound in SSF2T and Vampire Savior, they do not sound accurate.
Games feel laggy. At first when i tried SSF2T, it was incredibly laggy, but then i found how to disable the filter and it was smooth after that, but still had a weird lag to it. The addition of a FPS counter would be excellent to see whats going on.
No support for players 2-4 to be configured in hardware buttons. I have 4 wii remotes + 4 classic controllers + 2 TVC Wii arcade sticks, so i have the ability to get 4-player arcade games going ontop of full 2-player fighter games with full arcade sticks, which i use with Mame4Droid often. Would be a great addition.
Emu runs in compatibility mode in Android 4.0. Instead of the menu button being natively working, it scales everything to fit the screen. It still looks great, but native 3.0+ support would be great.
Otherwise this is a great emu and i am enjoying it quite a bit. I would also love for CPS1 to be emulated at some point as well, to get all 3 major emus (CPS1/2/MVS) done by the same author would be awesome to have everything uniform.
Excellent work and keep it up.

quepaso: your maybe running roms from on a slow sdcard/memory ?
Version 1.1 uploaded with a few/fast fix, i'll work on all other request soon

The touchpad just has 32 gig of internal storage which is quite fast, no SD card of any kind. Ill update to 1.1!
Edit -
Updated to 1.1, and indeed it is now running natively in 3.0+, no more compatibility mode. Now however, i am running everything non-stretched, and the top bar ontop (touchpad is 4:3 res so gets mostly full screen for CPS2, full screen for console emus like snes/nes) is black and the bar below is grey. I thought something got weird so i switched from stretched, scaled and native, and noticed the background goes from black to grey now, previously on 1.0 it was all black. Due to this, it looked like 2 incorrect levels were displayed on top/bottom when it likely is just a bitmap change to the background causing it.
Otherwise, i think the games are running properly, but the sound being so wrong is making me think it is not running 60fps. Great work so far.

- You are probably trying to run a "clone" rom, which need the "parent" rom. Look in the "Compatibility" tab (search button), if there is a line with "parent:xx.zip" then you also need "xx.zip" to run your rom.
- You can just use the "back" button of you device to browse to your roms directory, each time you launch a rom this path will be saved as default rom directory.

Great! Thank you for the answer. I will install 1.1 and I will let you know how it goes.
Edit: ok, I installed 1.1 on my TF and you were somewhat right about the roms.... ironically, the ones that do run are the US clones. I actually have the (EUR) versions (full roms) and they spit out the error I told you earlier, but once I got the US clone file and ran that, it was good....
I think I may have found a bug. The key assignment....
I assigned hardware keys from my TF keyboard and only the Start, Coin, and dpad are being saved. None of the other 6 buttons get saved for some reason. I did it a few times over, turning off the program, etc and still nothing. I did notice that one of the changes you made included a tweak on this, so I am wondering if maybe something else got lost with the fix.
Looking better and MvsC runs like a champ!

[Best Settings] FPse + OpenGL plugin

I'm looking to make this playable. I'm a total noob at FPse but getting the hang of it. At one time I had FF7 smooth as silk but several Roms and kernels later plus the OpenGL plugin makes things look awesome but laggy.
Anyone have any luck with the opengl plugin with FPse and what settings do you use?
I'm on the latest Megatron and some recommended kernel. Overclocking to 1400 didn't help much.
I think I remember running it as a phone app vs tablet app helped a lot but no longer get that option anymore. Suggestions and tips anyone?

Settings settings settings. You have to fiddle with em in FPSe. I play FFVII on my Note too. Funny thing is....the settings seem different every time, but nevertheless, i usually get it working.
Also, CM9 had absolutely awful 3d performance when I was running it. It forced me to run back to a stock based rom. So if your using CM9, run GLbench or something similar and compare scores with others here to see if youre suffering from the same problem.
Lastly, if you have a super high speed Micro SD card, try placing the ROM and BIOS there, or swap it to your Internal SD if it's already on your External SD.

Good advice. Yea setting seem key here and some don't really give descriptions and they don't always stick and they don't always take effect immediately.
So tuning setting can be a pain when your constantly restarting the app and loading a ISO after each setting toggle.
Good to know about stock vs cm9. I'm running Megatron which is AOSP I believe. I think last time I had great success was on the stock-based roms. Good idea about the internal vs external storage. Right now I'm running off external class 6, I believe.
I guess another question is whether the TF101 can run FF7 at full speed with the OpenGL plugin?
-UPDATE-
Yea after playing with some settings, it is running pretty good. Audio gets screwy sometimes during opening battle scenes but otherwise plays at 60fps. Choppy audio during scene/battle changes is a buzzkill though but the graphics of using the OpenGL plugin is great. Looks sweet. So I guess it is a good trade off.
I am still using Megatron CM9 but flashed to Harmony kernel. Set governor to Performance and CPU to 1408mhz. Typically the governor and CPU doesn't play a huge role in the performance but I didn't test before and after. Just saying it is working pretty well.

best setting is to avoid option which wil slow down the performance.

FPse best settings!
Im running Metal Gear Solid, Rayman and FF9 with no problems. (some lag but very rare)...Here are my settings, im using a galaxy s3!
Framelimiter - off
Framskip - on
Print FPS - optional really lol
Adjust framebuffer access - on
special upload detection - on
offscreen drawing - on (good for pop-ups in FF9)
advanced blending - off
alpha multipass - on
mask bit - on
32bit rendering - off
anti aliasing - on (keep off if your device cant handle it....i think this is why i get rare lag when i get it)
texture filtering - on
old frameskip - off
special frame limiter - on
busy fix - on or off same effect
I'm getting 59-63 fps with metal gear solid and ff9.....50-59 fps with rayman and tekken 3....These are by far the best settings i tried. Try them and let me know. I dont recommend these settings on a lower end device. Try these settings on gs3 (all versions) and htc one x (all versions) and you just might get the same awesome performance on a galaxy nexus too!
Try them and let me know!

Which Samsung galaxy are you running the quad core or dual core, because I'm still lagging with those settings on ff9.

Here is my setting to play FFIX, most of the time is pretty stable on 60ps. the most important feature to use is the special frame limitter, dont use any frame skip because it will make it laggy even the fps is showing high value.
Framskip - on
Print FPS - on
offscreen drawing - on
alpha multipass - on
mask bit - on
anti aliasing - on (keep off if your device cant handle it....i think this is why i get rare lag when i get it)
texture filtering - on (must turn this on to get smooth texture)
special frame limiter - on
G4 polygon cace - on (better fps when battle event)

Hi shamman i'm completely new to this whole fspe thing but i have a samsung galaxy s3 i have purchased fpse off the play store and dowloaded disk one and disk two of metal gear solid i have also downloaded a bio 'scph1001.bin' however when i go on the fspe and go on 'load game' and select disk one or disk two it loads the playstation starter screen then says 'insert cd-rom' where do i go from here? Im not sure how to use this site so if you wouldnt mind emailing me my email is [email protected] please and thankyou

What would be the best settings for FF Tactics?
I did pretty much the same settings as you guys did, and although it's a bit smoother now, it still lags like crazy during scene transitions and animations during special moves.

guys what is this and should I turn it on?
advanced blending
I am playing everything smoothly on galaxy note 2,both on stock and on ovrclocked settings(1.7GHz CPU,640MHz GPU)

Here are my best FPSE settings v. 0.11.93
After the update things went a bit screwy.
Though I was able to get things working properly except for the intro video in Chrono Cross or Lunar Silver Star Story. They appear black, but the sound runs fine. As far as other games like Tekken 3, Tobal 2, Bloody Roar 2, things are near perfect with texture blending,lighting and anti-aliasing. So I wanted to post my setting since it doesn't seem that anyone else was able to post any setting for my Galaxy Note 2 Sprint. Once again these are my best settings. If anyone has better ones please drop me a line. I hope this will help all my fellow Note 2'er closer to perfect psx emulation.
Cheers!

Hi guys,
On my galaxy s3 and note 10.1 fpse runs also with open gl settings very good but i have a problem with metal gear solid, at the beginning from the game when i go into the water the screen freezes but i can play, when i go out of the water the freezing screen is gone and i can play normaly....
Does anybody have also this problem???
Please help me, i dont know where in the game this problem appears again, hope for positive feedback what kind of setting turns this bug off.

Try switching alpha multipass off and mask bit. It could be also be a problem with advanced blending! Try to play around with the settings i posted and see if it helps
