Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness & Beyond the Dark Portal for WQVGA

I do not take any credit for the actual game, I just change it so it will fit WQVGA devices. (I own an omnia thats why :lol: )

Instructions:

v1.0

Just extract it to your phone and run the Stratagus.exe If you don't trust me, then you can simply search and download the QVGA version and just replace the "scripts" and the "graphics" folder.

v1.1

Unrar on your phone and run Warcraft II.exe (adviced) or you can just copy the Warcraft II.exe , stratagus.lua and pocketpc.lua, to the appropriate locations. If you follow the first method be sure to backup your save files. For Key bindings look the pocketpc.lua file. You can uncomment the DumpKeys(true) to get the keys you pressed in the stderr.txt file. On my Omnia I got the following codes:

call key 284

end call key 285

task key 193 (key that brings the menu with the factory rom)

camera key 195

up key 273

down key 274

left key 276

right key 275

volume down key 287

action key (middle key) 13

As the instructions in pocketpc.lua state, those codes go to the first column, for the values of the third column look at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb431750.aspx , and for translating the hexadecimal values to ascii codes look at: http://home2.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/

Memory requirements:

Requires 23MB of main memory with sound and music.

Requires 21MB of main memory with sounds.

Requires 16MB of main memory without sounds.

Download link:

v1.0 no key bindings

.Rar versions:

If the above two don't work this should:

Thanks to Dj iCE!

.CAB version

Thanks to smilegod!

v1.1 with key bindings

http://rapidshare.com/files/231324214/Warc...A_v1.1.rar.html

If the above two don't work this should:

Thanks to Dj iCE!

Update:

TO CREATE A SAVE FILE FOR WARCRAFT 2

In your PC, create an empty notepad file. Rename the notepad file to whatever name you want, and rename the extension to .sav.

Finally, place these files in Warcraft 2/WC2/save

Create the save folder if u do not have one.

Now this save slot will be available when u try to play the game on your pda!!

(reference: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...2606&page=5 )

CONTROLS

Camera/Call key -- Attack (can be used for moving)

End call hey -- Stop

Middle key -- Chat (useless unles there are cheat codes but then again where is the keyboard :lol: )

Volume down -- Sound Options

Enjoy :D

A couple quick questions....for one..is this a game we purchase after the trial or something? Do you have any screen shots? I am thinking about downloading it, but some shots may help make up my mind!!!

Thanks for any answers, and the OP!!!

No, this is a free game. I don't know much about the story behind it but its a project called Stratagus and they have managed to emulate warcraft 2 as well as starcraft. I don't want to install additional applications on my phone just to take screenshots. You can search for the QVGA version. QVGA: http://www.ipmart-forum.pl/showthread.php?t=8085.

I placed the folder onto the phone and ran stratagus.exe on the phone and it did nothing.

Hmm.. thats really strange I just check if the file provided is working and its fine. If I remember well I had to wait a bit the first time. Please let me know how it goes.

I tried it again and this time I set the omnia to Mass storgae. Once the extraction was completed i clicked on the stratgus.exe file and the only thing that happend were the byte size of the two file below ( STRERR & STROUT) flashed.

There is not icon to click to start the game, nothing.

The Stratagus.exe is the actual execution file to start the game. If there are any errors they should be reported in the stderr file. Maybe you are running something in the background or you don't have enought memory to run it. To be honest I don't know the requirements but that might be the case. Did you try soft reset?

I checked the STERR file and it said Error Code 1061.

I would suggest to re download it because I am not getting that error, so as the others.

I just want to double check the procedure:

Download .rar file

extract .rar file to Mobile device

select .exe file to run game

do you need to use .net v 3.5?

Yes that should do it, I don't think that you need .net 3.5. But of course I am not sure because I already have it installed on my phone. What ROM are you running? Did you check how much free memory do you have before running it? Try to close everything and then run it. I really can't think of anything. The only thing I can tell you is that first time I try to run it some months ago, when I was running T-mobile UK rom it didn't run the first time and after a soft reset it did. Try what I have suggested and let me know.

I installed this on my phone i910, I have framework 3.5 and it worked right away. However the icons are really small, too small honestly for my comfort. Also how do you even play the game. Honestly I did not bother to read or look for instructions but without a gamepad how can you even play this, I had a hell of a time just trying to figure how to scroll on the screen. And since I could not see the log off option I could not get out of the game, and not even pressing the end button or trying to shutdown the phone by powering down will end the damn thing. So I had to remove the battery to shutdown the game. Perhaps reading the instructions (if there are any) you can have a better experience with this. But in my opinion this is not worth it the headache.

I am not familiar with the i910 to be honest but "really small, too small"? on i900 its fine.
