thx masterall !!

gonna try this as soon as possible


is it posssible to make a list of the working roms please ??
(and the non working roms )

it would be much better for those who want to try the emulator...

[doudz]

hey masterall, why don't you manage with parallax20 to use the other file explorer ? cause the only bad thingin your emu is this trial message when loading roms ....

cheers and thanks for your powerfull work !!!!

[masterall]

éron:
The games working may be long~~
NNNesterj has good compatibility, so does it.
It can play all games NNNesterj could theoretically.

doudz:
I am working on the file explorer now actually. The new file explorer might be available soon.

[doudz]

great news!!!
I test pocketnesterplus and i had some few problems with rc pro am cause some bottom lines don't appear... and there's problem of "persistant" (sorry i'm french) in game screen when pausing end leaving the games....
one last thing make something to bind the backspace key please !!!! just like in you're pocketsnes you do !

i've few others comments about both emus, but i don't know if it will bother you.... the work you made is alreaady so amazing.... but if you want some help to make them perfect, you can compte on me! (I'm not programmer but great beta tester I think...)

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I guess I knew what you mean for "persistant", but I havn't found the reason for the problem yet. And what you mean of "rc pro"?
Sorry, I know little Francais...
It is great if you would like to help with emulator test!

[doudz]

RC pro AM is one of the first RARE games!!! and the bottom of the game screen is missing !
and please let us bind the backspace !!!

[mabury10]

I'm guessing it would be a bit [offtopic]to be asking where I could find NES-roms?[/offtopic]. Only asking because an emulator will be great fun, but surely not without games to be playing on it.

thanks

[catman3]

Respectfully, how is this different than the one that Parallax had updated?

Regards,
Craig

doudz:
OK, I will add pause key setting in the next version.

catman3:
Sorry, I havn't test Parallax's updated version yet. I guess the differences is more mapper is supported in my version.

Thanks! And what you mean slowdown? In some games?

[doudz]

hey !
everything is getting better and better, and it's sounds good!!! playing nes snes and genesis is awesome.

I always get the same probleme while playinr RC pro am (I can't tell if in the other game it's the same) : a few bottom line aren't displayed... so I just can't see my stock of ammo ....
and as I told you last time when you pause the game, or leave the emu the game screen stay on background until you use home key or something like that....


cheers.
PS masterall, if you have msn, give me your adress for some debriefing !

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

if there are too much moving objects its slows down on my mpx220. maybe just not enough cpu power. it would need optimizing ore overclocking i think

[masterall]

@doudz
You can try to enable display all 240 scanlines in graphics setting of PocketNesterPlus. And the second problem you mentioned, has been fixed, and will released in the next version.

@Sly123
Do you remember the mappers which used in the game that slowed down?

except this few detail you ve done an amaizind work dude !!!! and i hope you re managing releasing a GBA emulator....!!!

good work, hame's god!!!

[obiwanblee]

I seem to have the same problem on all your ports masterall - the games will load, run very fast for a few seconds, then lock up for 30 seconds, then smooth again, etc. I have an SMT5600, and I am at my wits end as to why this is happening.

If anyone has ANY idea, please let me know.

[Halcyon]

Hello to all,

      I am a new owner of the T-Mobile MDA (running Windows Mobile 5) which I purchased 2 days ago. I have been struggling since then to find a NES emulator that will work properly in landscape mode! I am at my wits end here...sigh... I can successfully load the emu as well as the roms, but regardless of what my controller settings are, they are always completely backwards! Example:

With the keyboard extended, the EMU switches to landscape mode and all is well.
The ROMs load, run, look and sound amazing!!!
My controls are as follows (this has a full QWERTY keyboard BTW):

Left - A
Right - D
Up - W
Down - Z

A button - L
B button - K
Start - Y
Select - T

It seems that regardless of what I setup the keys to be, its as if the EMU thinks it is still in portrait mode and adjusts the keys as such... does anyone know how to force the keys to remain the same *and* work as desired in landscape? I would be immensely appreciative of any help anyone can provide!!
