Guest spacemonkey Posted March 14, 2004 Report Posted March 14, 2004 I have finally fixed this to work on the e200. Get the cab here or go to http://www.surrealservices.co.uk/PocketClive.html The below cab is for e200 (2k3) phones only so if you have an older phone please get the normal build from my site. The only modifications other than it working is that the screen will now "flip" when you press volume buttons since the voice record button has that silly camera thing tied to it (which I cannot find a way to disable)PocketClive2k3.CAB
Guest Panja Posted March 15, 2004 Report Posted March 15, 2004 Great work man!! I will check it out later tonight. Cheers
Guest fitz Posted March 15, 2004 Report Posted March 15, 2004 The E200 owners of the world can now be happy again! Nice one Spacemonkey, been waiting a while for this one, just downloading it now!!!
Guest ronswens Posted March 16, 2004 Report Posted March 16, 2004 spacemonkey, why your Pocket Clive doesn't even install to my Mio 8380? :) saying something about the program doesn't have adequate rights. I'm talking about usual version (not for e200). I have unlocked Mio.
Guest spacemonkey Posted March 16, 2004 Report Posted March 16, 2004 Do you have a SD Card in your phone? The cab installer only installs to storage card (regardless of what you pick) and if you have no storage card the install will fail. spacemonkey, why your Pocket Clive doesn't even install to my Mio 8380? :) Â saying something about the program doesn't have adequate rights.

Guest ronswens Posted March 16, 2004 Report Posted March 16, 2004 I do have SD card and when it asks I choose installing to SD card but always get error message. Could it be because Mio SD card has 'SDMMC Disk' name whereas SPV SD card has 'Storage card' name and it is somehow hardcoded to your PocketClive instalator?
Guest spacemonkey Posted March 16, 2004 Report Posted March 16, 2004 That is probably it... If you download this zip and extract it with directories, copy the entire thing to your phone it should work. PocketClive.exe is the Smartphone 2002 version and PocketClive2k3.exe is the Smartphone 2003 versionPocketClive.zip
Guest ronswens Posted March 16, 2004 Report Posted March 16, 2004 Yes! Now it works! spacemonkey, you're a man! Many thanks for great emulator! Well, I'm going to get lost for months with my favorite old Spectrum games :)
Guest mr p Posted March 20, 2004 Report Posted March 20, 2004 Is there any way top use the number keys instead of the joystick? Ive got Chuckie Egg running at perfect speed but the E200's crappy joystick makes it almost impossible to control...?
Guest spacemonkey Posted March 20, 2004 Report Posted March 20, 2004 Not at the moment I'm afraid. My plan if I ever stop being a lazy coder is to make the number keys programmable to any spectrum keyboard keys you like which will achieve what you want. One day.
Guest steverae Posted March 22, 2004 Report Posted March 22, 2004 Don't forget the make the cursor more visable as well..... we will reward you for your effects i'm sure
Guest DancingMatt Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 I haven't managed to get Turbo Esprit (big favourite of mine) or Chaos working with the joystick. Tried all sorts of combinations of configuring keyboard, using kempston or cursor joystick, etc. I can move the cursor around the flipped-keyboard and the games do run, but I can't move anything. What am I doing wrong? Where am I being thick?
Guest pizdyetz77 Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 I tried Pocket Clive on my original SPV and, to be honest, found it 1) difficult to use 2) crashed my phone more often than not 3) slow and fiddly when it did work. My question then is: Is this worth putting onto my E200? What do other people think of it? Everyone seems to shout 'great!' when news of something new comes out but never write about what they think after installing it. Not trying to be negative - really appreciate what you guys do. Just want to know - IS IT ANY GOOD? GH
Guest ronswens Posted April 2, 2004 Report Posted April 2, 2004 It's really good especially if you're fan of old Spectrum games. The only inconvenience is a keypad. You can't use all the phone buttons, just a keypad, that's not always good. I hope in next release author will add feature to program any button you want.
Guest DancingMatt Posted April 2, 2004 Report Posted April 2, 2004 I've cracked it now - you have to remember the keys to the game, or try all the buttons in keypad view to see what works, and then redefine the joystick from the configuration menu. Then the joystick works. I couldn't remember Turbo Esprit's keys being an unusual arrangement, but got there in the end. It's only good though for basic stick and fire games, because if you need more than 5 keys you'll have to pop to and from the keyboard view. BUT it's really good to have it at all, thank you so much Spacemonkey!! If it ever gets updated so that each number can be assigned to a speccy key, then the colourclashed world is our oyster...
