MAMECE3

I have copied the folder I had MAMECE3 (mamece3 dot mameworld dot info) installed on - onto the sd card in my HD2. The program runs fine, but the problem is the buttons. I see that morphgear has an onscreen d-pad - is it possible to add one to this? This is the one thing I really miss from my old Axim x51v - a d-pad!
They have the source code available. This would open our devices up to yet another whole world of 1,000s of games. I would love to see moonpatrol, pacman, tapper and asteroids running yet again. And with freeware ;-)
note: anyone else have a favorite game they used to run on MAME?

You just named all my favs..... I'd love to see the MAME come to the HD2.

Try with LMT (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629263): among the other features it sports a good trasparent multi-touch onscreen controller, that can be used either on portrait and landscape mode.
It should overcome your problem (and be much more playable...).
By the way SEGA and Capcom games were the best!

OK tried it - nothing.
More detail - I installed it as per the instructions (on the device). If i run it, it just takes me back to the home screen. No findger swipes do anything other than the regular sense ones. I checked the task manager I don't see it running. I wonder what it takes to call it up other than just clicking on the shortcut.
So, I ran MAME. after a short time the game chooser menu comes up. It is at this point that I can set the buttons for different things, but nothing as far as LMT is concerned. So I go back and run it thinking maybe it is not running in the background (esp. since it never shows up in the task manager). Ahhh (wait for it ......) still nothing.
Kind of disappointing. I can start a rom, enter coins, but that is it - without my beloved d-pad i miss soo much.
Any other ideas?

Quick report back. Went over the thread again. Saw what I was doing wrong with LMT. It is a double swipe thing. I see the double swipe etc. on the Home screen. If you drawing a box with your finger the console comes up. I have had that up while trying to configure the buttons. I was even able to configure all of the buttons to taps on the LMT console (up = up, A for exit game, etc.) - no success.
When the game starts it is still lokking for the hardware keys and not the software ones - even though they are set in the button configure menu of MAMECE.
Please let us know if anyone else was able to get it working.

I succesfully mapped buttons 1 and 2 on LMT Controller, but not the others. Directional keys work perfectly.
My problem is that with the LMT Controller in portrait mode the only visible section of the screen during game is under the controller, while on landscape mode all is visible but it's really unconfortable!
And unluckily MAMECE3 doesn't support screen in landscape mode!
I've to figure out something else...

OK If you are interested in this. The LMT controller works great (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629263&page=67) go there get it - DONATE!. note: this is the latest page - it is on page 1. Use it in landscape mode. You just have to have it off when going to button settings - then do the square to open it - set the buttons. Hit the x to close it and save your settings.
Start the ROM you want - restart the controller.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
YES it does. Click on options > Rotate Right and it will work just fine. It took me a while to figure this one out. Also, if you delete all of your config files in the cfg directory it will use your default settings for everything. One thing I did was, change the one player button to the back arrow (hard key) less problems that way.
Remeber that left arrow then right arrow is "OK"

[APP] [HACK] Wii remote for emulators on Nexus (SimpleWiiRemote)

Initially i downloaded Wiimote off the market and found that i could not connect my controller without the hassle of a passkey or pin. Well they offer 0000 or 1234 as options for the standard pass and those did not work. After a few minutes i downloaded a second one to see if it had an option to bypass it and sure enough it did. It's called "SimpleWiiController" and it's FREEEEEE! So i installed that and turned on my bluetooth. When you open the application it gives and option to enable it, select input, and connect. Well ENABLE, Select input to remote, and as you ENABLE connect hold 1&2 on remote or red button in battery door. Once connected you will see success or you will see test input received signals for each button you press. Needless to say i was excited because the virtual keyboard annoys me. So i started snesoid and started playing mario.
For best results:
-ENABLE "USE INPUT METHOD" in snesoid. Close to bottom of screen.
-disable virtual keyboard (enabling fullscreen)
-map keys (key mapping)
-turn remote in desired direction
My Setup:
- Up = up
- Down = down
- left = left
- right = right
- select = minus
- Start = plus
- A = 2
- X (essentially B button on snes) = 1 (speedrun setup just like controller)
- B (spin) = A
If i had a camera i'd post a youtube video or something. but i do not . If any help is needed using these two pairings i'd be glad to help. But as far as NES and PSX i have no idea.

im waiting until we can pair out PS3 controllers to our Nexus Ones via bluetooth

Yea i'd try my roommates but if i messed anything up in it i'd be out $50.

App to grab/rebind/forward keyboard & mouse inputs?

Im curently using a half size bluetooth keyboard paired to my phone (nexus 4) which is running RemoteDroid. That is used to forward keystrokes to my PC. Why? because I have a broken collarbone and cant use my fullsize wired keyboard properly So im using my phone as an intermediate device (BluetoothK/B->Phone->WiFi->PC) to be able to use the bluetooth keyboard. Putting the phone in close proximity to the K/B means It has a much better range and signal quality via WiFi. The phone itself also has a better bluetoooth receiver than any laptop or desktop USB bluetooth receivers ive tried, giving much more reliable keystrokes at higher typing speed than gong straight to PC
The problem is some of the keys dont work correctly and I believe its because Android is interpreting them differently. i.e. 'Tab/Delete/Insert/Home/End/num +/ num -.. etc' dont get forwarded to the PC,And some keystrokes are simply incorrect` i.e. the right shift key acts more like CTRL for some things. Shift+2 becomes " instead of @ (need to press alt 2 instead) and so on
In addition I have a touchpad on the little keyboard and that only works in a limitted fashion
Is there an app out there that can 'grab' the Android inputs of a device and remap them? so i.e. mouse click could be emulated as pressing the Enter key if I so wished
Additionally` is there a progam that can forward these 'raw inputs' to a PC via USB/WiFi/Bluetooth? remotedroid does indeed forward some inputs of key presses as best it can (arrow keys for instance) but it seems to do it 'after' the android OS (i.e. alt+tab makes the android program switch applications, rather than forwarding the 'alt' and 'tab' keys to the PC)
It does not however forward mouse inputs (havnt tried gamepad) so its not possible to use a mouse or trackpad as intended. I have to emulate a screen press (hold left click on trackpad and move the cursor across the remotedroid screen)
Hope the above makes sense, and yes im aware I could simply bluetooth directly to the PC but wheres the fun in that?

Application which can swap/change/emulate mouse click as a touch

Hi,
Is there any application which can swap/change/emulate left mouse click as a touch?
Example:
I have mouse connected by blue tooth and in some (or even most) games left click mouse button doesn't work. Is it possible to use mouse left button as a touch ?
I know there are a lot of apps which can map buttons on screen but I am trying to play rpg games, unfortunately you can't map buttons in this type of game so the only option is to change click to touch.
Any help/hints will be appreciated.

Red Magic 5g controller grayed out in game space

I tried talking a screenshot but the game space settings slide out doesn't appear in the screenshots. Anyways, when I enter game mode and go into a game, I need to remap the buttons for the controller but I can't anymore. When I slide out the side settings, controller is grayed out. The controllers are on, charged, and connected. I've remapped them a thousand times in the past but now I can't. It's always grayed out. Any tips?

Been trying to fix this issue for a week. I post the problem on here today and if course, I solve it afterwards. If this happens to anyone else, go into the gamespace, not into a game or emulator, into the gamespace and press the little d-pad button. It'll reconnect with the controllers and start recognizing them again.

Also, bonus tip for using 2 e-sports controllers, (or whatever they're called), emulators and other games seem to register the left one as the master one. To keep from the right one doing the same exact controls as the left controller, only upside down; when you map your left and map your right buttons, be sure to switch back to the left controller, the master controller before closing the mapping settings. When you close the map settings with the left selected, both controllers will function as you expect, but if you close the map settings with the right selected, it will mimic the left but upside down.
