Guest benjers Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Hello, We've been receiving quite a lot of emails from C550/C600 users asking us to create a QVGA port of SkyForce. So here it goes! We need some testing help from C550/C600 people (or any other owners of QVGA enabled Smartphones). Please download a beta demo version from: http://files.idreams.pl/fget.php?id=SFSPBETA Please let us know if it's working. Also please test any possible issues like key configurations, receiving phone calls, SMS, going to background etc. Thank you in advance! best regards, Marek Wyszynski, Infinite Dreams, http://www.idreams.pl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pd.ryder Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Ok. Got the file. I'll give it a wizz and let you know. Does it have "dump" collection or anything else you'll need? :):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest w411y Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 I installed it, after installation I lost my active sync connection! Its still not full screen and half thee screen is missing, Ill post screenshots now.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pd.ryder Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 As w4ally says, we've got the daft black border around the edge which appears to be being written to (the craft I'm flying disappears off the bottom of the screen, for instance). I've got it running and cant exit it. I presume there's a quit option somewhere under the black border. I'll dissassemble my phone now :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pd.ryder Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Managed to guess my way out of it :) It looks very interesting. I'll check back later tonight and see what others think (and see if there's another beta!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The music and gameplay is also very jumpy when connected to active sync Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest benjers Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Thanks for such a quick response! There should be a file called GameLog.txt in the directory where SkyForce is installed. Could you please send it to support(at)idreams.pl Thank you in advance! Marek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pd.ryder Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Sorry, can't locate GameLog.txt within the SkyForce directory (or any other I could think of) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest w411y Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Thanks for such a quick response! There should be a file called GameLog.txt in the directory where SkyForce is installed. Could you please send it to support(at)idreams.pl Thank you in advance! Marek. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ill have a browse for it now and send it as soon as I find it :) Looks like a nice game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest awarner [MVP] Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 Good luck with development of the game, Off topic but will there be a sequal? I liked the original game but felt it was a little short. Keep up the good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ninjaw Posted December 22, 2005 Report Share Posted December 22, 2005 I tested the game on C600, installation perfect, playable, looks really great !!! (i love your game) BUT I confirm tha w411y story, same thing here. qvga screen hidden into a vga one ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest benjers Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Thanks for your feedback! Now I've uploaded a new version. The link/filename is the same, new file size is 740864, please make sure your download is not cached. This version will generate a log file and I believe it should work full screen now! Please let me know! regards, Marek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest martin Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Just tried the new demo on an C550 and yep, FULL SCREEN WORKS :) No problems so far and graphics rock 8) Any idea when you plan to release the full version ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest benjers Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Thanks Martin! I'll release a full version as soon as I get a confirmation that it works without any issues on both C550/C600. What about the performance? Is it acceptable? The game is really highly optimized, but 200MHz may be a bit too slow to push so many pixels... Could you please test some other things like receiving a phone call/sms, trying to reconfigure keys? Anything that you might think is wrong! regards, Marek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest peekie Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 on my sp5 i get every now and then a flickering image of the signal strength , i get this also on games that are in postage stamp size :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest martin Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 An incoming call pauses the game and takes you to the 'Incoming call' screen. After conversation the backspace needs pressed to take you back to the game screen where there is the exit game Y/N option is displayed. Text messages are received OK during the game. The game slightly pauses and the text sound is played. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest martin Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Another thing I have noticed. At the end of the game on the 'Demo completed screen' there is highlighted 'NEXT' above the left soft key but pressing the left soft key does nothing. Only pressing the action key will take you back to the Main Menu. Should the 'NEXT' options be mapped to the left and right softkeys ? [Edit] If I'm right I think pressing the 'NEXT' (right soft key) goes back a menu and the 'BACK' (left soft key) goes forward a menu. It's the wrong way round :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ninjaw Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Hey It works perfectly on C600 ! I played a lot on SPV1 version, i noticed enemies often changed postions ?? it also looks harder I found again some short unwanted pauses, specially when changing to final music. On SPV1 such pause was producing keyboard off/remove battery. Hopefully this is corrected on WM05. Also my very first try, someone exploded upscreen while first wave was downscreen ... and I also heard a missile sound without missile, if u want short bugs :) Speed is just fine, didnt tried special options, did i won a full licence ? it's christmas :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest martin Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 I mapped the keys 2,4,6,8 to up/left/right/down and that worked OK. Manual fire mapped to a key worked too. Music and SFX volume works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest benjers Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Thanks so much! So in other words, do you think it's ready to be released? ;) regards, Marek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jamma14 Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Yep just tested the new version! Looking great - I'd say it's easily release-worthy. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest peekie Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 seems that the older system works better than the new as on my C550 it works on my SP5 it still has the every now and then flicker displaying the signal meter, having said that i had that with the original release of pocket mini golf ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ninjaw Posted December 24, 2005 Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 Thanks so much! So in other words, do you think it's ready to be released? ;) regards, Marek. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Like this ? yeah ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
