OnLive is on the Android Market!
AND IT SUPPORTS XPERIA PLAY CONTROLS!
I WILL NO LONGER DEVELOP FOR THE APP
...
But it does not support Xperia Play game pad. So until support is added I've made an app...
OnLive Helper
LATEST
Added option to toggle between between an alternate profile.
Added option to donate and remove ads.
Added alternate key functionality.
Link:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.hatcyl.android.OnLiveHelper
Price:
Free with ads in the configuration menu.
Description:
This app will technically work with any phone! Visit the official thread to discuss!
This application will enable Xperia Play users to use the game pad to play games using the OnLive Service.
Currently only "LEGO Batman" and "Dirt 3" are included.
You can create your own custom profiles or use community created ones. Please visit the official thread on XDA for more information.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1382899
Usage:
1. No Root Is Required.
2. To enable this app, you must change the Input Method Service to "OnLive Helper"
3. You can have the input method screen automatically come up when you open or close your keyboard by checking "Auto Prompt" in the options.
Custom Mode
You can now create custom profiles.
All phones should be supported (not just Xperia Play)
You create them by using Android KeyCodes: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent.html
To create a custom profile:
1. Create a txt file, name it anything (it does NOT need the .txt extension).
2. In line 1 type the keycodes you want to press.
3. In line 2 type the keycodes you want it to do. If you map a key to -1 then it will go to the third line to translate key presses until you release it. If you map a key to -2 then it will go to the fourth line to translate until you push it again.
4. In line 3 type alternate key codes.
5. In line 4 type the key codes that the app will toggle to.
5. Save that file to /sdcard/Android/data/com.hatcyl.android.OnLiveHelper/files
6. That "profile" will now appear in the settings.
Notes:
I've attached a sample file (Lego Batman) and a "Template" file for the noobs.
If you create a profile, share it here!
Some buttons like ESCAPE, MOUSE BUTTONS, etc. are not supported. They were not added into Android until a later version. I will see if there is anything we can do (at least for root users) if anyone knows please share!
Coming Later Maybe, No Promises
Mouse Support + More Keys Support (Maybe just for ROOT users)
Maybe a way to emulate the OnLive Controller instead of keyboard.
Support for touch pads.
An option for multiple profiles in one (i.e. press a button to change button mapping quickly) - DONE
An option for an "Alt" key, so if you press two buttons at once it does something else. - DONE
Something about international keyboards, if I can figure out what ps3taker is talking about.
A way to create custom profiles from within the app.
Some kind of In App purchase for some reason. - DONE
Waw this looks promising, I will try this in a few minutes!
One suggestion I have is could you make a list of all the xperia plays buttons and let users assign any keyboard button to that xperia button.
For example on the list of keys would be the X button, I then click on the xbutton and get a whole list of keyboard keys to choose from which I can assign to the X button.
I know thats a bit of a confusing explanation but I think you know what I mean.
EDIT: Your app works great, I dont know why something like this hasn't been made before. an app like this could also be used to make the xperia play work with flash games too.
Heck yes! This will do until it's official. Analog sticks would be amazing, but I noticed that your program syncs the buttons to keyboard strokes, like wsad on the dpad, nice idea!

Cool I really hope you can make it happen.
I think custom mode should be top priority because then users can play any games without having to wait for you to add profiles, Also another good idea could be for users to make thier own custom profiles, but this app is still in its early stages so maybe im thinking too far ahead haha.
Oh and I clicked on an ad to support you
can someone explain how to make this work i start up batman but nothing happening when i press the buttons
yeah hes made it on a custom rom his keyboard settings are diff it dont work for me either looks like a rush job to beat the rest off but cool when he gets his working. someone found another way here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20119438#post20119438

You need to set onlive helper as your default android keyboard, enable it in the settings then go into the text app or something and change it to your default input method.

yeah cheers that worked the text message thing, hold down on the message and select input. But he needs to make another setting menu in with the onlive helper method tick box like the sixaxis app and wiimotes. and also let people know on the discription.
This is awesome man ;D
Thank you very much hatcyl.

Don't know if will help but someone tried making an app that used the touch pads as trackball to control a mouse on internet browser its on a page in here somewhere. I also tried another game without touch pad support on onlive and the mouse was emulated on the touch screen. or paul that made mupen64 plus has touch pad control values and codes on his site and recons they can be added to most emus why not this, i understand they would only work as digital button presses as you are only mapping to the keyboard but would free up extra buttons for others. Hope this helps.

I dont think you can use the touch pads with this method, maybe with some sort of complex root app you could but this is essentially a virtual keyboard so I think getting mouse support is not possible.

i know it would not be analogue but he could use the touch pads as the d pad just like the sixaxis app uses sticks and sonys ps ports app type 4 setting to map the d-pad on a keyboard, then the other buttons would be free for others. Also why would you need root apps like mupen64plus use the touchpads it is not a virtual keyboard he is mapping to its a hardware keyboard if you notice square and trangle are really say x and y on a qwerty keyboard hes just changing them to say a and b. so why could he not fool the touchpad into thinking it was a trackball or mouse. I maybe wrong but was an idea.
Just wanted to confirm that the sixaxis controller does work with Modern combat 3 on the transformer...ITS AWESOME! Need to edit touch profile but that only takes 5 min

Sure ill make one soon. Its not really hard though just keep switching between the customization screen on MC3 and sixaxis to align to the controls. Once you have them exactly over one another save the profile, go back to the main menu on sixaxis and click on active touch profile. Then choose the one you created and your good to go. Im so happy with the controller now it makes turning and aiming much smoother.
Here is a screen shot of the touch profile i created for MC3 along with the customization screen. If you superimpose them over one another you can see how it works out. Check out the attached images

Could you possibly post the .map file for your touch profile? If you have one that is working well, that would probably be the easiest way.
When I use the controller in game it stops my movement every few seconds...any idea why?
did you change the build.prop in order to get this game to work?? is so doing this affects/effects (?) any other non-gameloft apks?
build.prop? explain.

We should probably keep this thread about sixaxis settings. Threads discussing getting MC3 to work have been closed due to some of the methods being discussed. I would hate to see this one get closed for it, too.
...but, no. I don't think any build.prop edits are involved.

Hi,
No need to change build.prop for TF101 just use the version for a500
look the video on youtube and the instruction is in the video description:

Its not just changing the touch profile in sixaxis but also the button layout in MC3. Its doesnt really matter where you put the buttons just that they match up on screen to the sixaxis touch profile layout. Also i did not edit any build.prop what ever profile. Simply lay the controls over one another. How ever i do have some tips that make the controls easier to use...
-Make sure that you the set right analog to relative so that you get a full range of motion on aim. If you dont change this you will literally only be able to move your gun the distance allowed on the joystick. (this will solve some of the movement issues some of you have posted about)
-Make sure to choose classic control scheme on MC3. This will give you a static movement while allowing right stick to roam (look around). (this will also solve some of the movement issues some of you have posted about)
-Dont forget to set crouch and melee (stab) with the R3 and L3.
-VERY IMPORTANT: make sure to adjust the sensitivity on both the game AND sixaxis profile for right analog. This took me forever to figure out. The controls felt so jumpy when i first got it working. Could not a single kill online because the controls were too sensitive and no matter how low i set them, I could never get them just right. Once i figured out i needed to also adjust the sixaxis sensitivity...dead bodies everywhere!
If you run into any more problems just post your question here on the thread. Sorry for taking so long to respond ive been traveling for the holidays.
[EDIT] Button layout does somewhat matter. Make sure they arent too close to each other or else you will get input interference from other button. Dont wanna crouch when your trying to melee some noob online .
EDIT: How do you make this work? It appears in the Sixaxis Controller and I can move around in the app using the analog sticks but can't click anything. I first tried it in GTA which supposedly supports gamepads natively.
And how do you change the size of the buttons. I made your posted map the background, but my buttons are no where near as big as the ones in the picture.

You cannot resize the buttons in the sixaxis app but you can resize mc3 buttons by pinching and zooming. The only thing you can resize in sixaxis are the outer rings of the left and right analog (when you click on them the rings appears). I would not recommmend resizing this UNLESS they are interfering with other buttons in your layout. Just resize and move the mc3 buttons to match the sixaxis. They dont have to be perfect, they just have to be on top of each other and not interfering with other buttons.

Also what do you mean by click anything? Do you mean R3 and L3 or clicking with all the other buttons?

Meh, I fixed it now, got it to work with MC3. Just need to tweak the controls and sensitivity a little more. Moving the right analog stick selects things and walking forward is really slow.
Wasn't successful with GTA3.
So I have Zenonia's 1-3. The first 2 show up in the Games Launcher while 3 does not but it does have the directional pad support as well as the game buttons, (x,o, etc)
A friend of mine emailed me the game Zenonia 4 and said it had been translated from Korean to English. So I gave it a whirl and it does support directional pad and game buttons as in 3 but again no Games Launcher support.
I am unable to find Zenonia 4 anywhere on the Android Market to see if its a paid or free. Zenonia 3 was free as is Zenonia 2. If anyone can confirm if its free and is interested in the apk for it, would it be against the rules to post a download link to the apk? I dont want to break any rules.
Sorry Zenonia 1 & 2 are paid, there is a free version of each of the two games, Zenonia 3 is the only one I can find that is free and its not a trial.
Again if anyone can confirm if Zenonia 4 is free and its the full not a lite or trial version let me know. I have been searching but again cannot find anything.
part 3 is a freemium game because u have to buy ingame stuff to get better, on ios this is the same with part 4, so my guess is that on android zenonia 4 is also free, i would like to play it and if u could share the apk that would be nice.

K, I have uploaded the game to my box.com account. Again if we find that this game is not free at some point I will immediately remove this link, but for now ENJOY. It is not 100% in english, I would say around 95%. Graphics are very nice and again it does not show up in the games launcher.

If you like the game please hit the thanks button. I am always happy to share any good stuff I find, thats legal of course.
wow this game is awsome on the play, nice graphics and play controls, but im wondering at the option menu there are diffrent signs for the graphics, but i dont see any diffrence when i apply any of them?

So, I know there are other threads like this, but in the last few releases, the Xperia Play's controls have been implemented into the game. Its pretty sweet.
Here is a link to the developers FB page: CSPORT
Dev's website: cs-portable.com
The file hosting site the dev is using is incredibly slow, so I re-uploaded the file to mediafire, download it Here
So it has FULL support for touchpads too ?
I think so. I was playing it using them.
ok it seems so
But hos the f we are supposed to shoot ? I cant find any settings to change my controls (currently X is for shooting and triangle jumpping, so akward
Am I supposed to go rewrite .Cfg or what?

After your in the game you open up the menu and go to controls or settings whatever it says and it has an option to bind the shoot button to whatever you like. That option only appears after you are already in game not at the main menu. I don't know if it has been updated but you also have to reset it everythime you restart the game.

That image sure saves some time, thanks but for all I know we need GKM touch + the onscreen analog sticks of kainy to make that work. Did you try some heavy game? I tried oblivion some time ago, when kainy was first released. It didn't go that well sadly... also there aren't enough buttons, it seems
