emulator performance... - Nook Color Themes and Apps

I figured with the recent release of N64oid, it was about time the NooKcolor community gathered some performance "presets" for a wide range of emulators.
I personally have no idea what settings are good on the nook so please share yours.
i think this is a good list of emulators to start with (please feel free to add more):
N64oid (N64)
Gameboid (GBA)
SNesoid (SNES)
Nesoid (NES)
Genssoid (Sega Genesis)
Gearoid (Gamegear)
uae4droid (Amiga emulator)
CPS2HD or CPS2 (capcom play system 2 arcade)
Frodo (commodore 64)
Android Acrade (MAME)
PSX4DROID (Playstation 1)
Fpse (Playstation 1)
______
Please, share your settings

Psx4droid is crap.
N64oid was removed from the market since they stole all of the code from another coder. That said, this particular emulator requires that tweak the settings for each game, and most are very unplayable or don't even load. I find that a frame skip of 4-8 helps on Mario 64, Mario Kart, Zelda (still slow...) and Star fox.
The other -oid emulators I haven't had to do anything, they all work out of the box as expected.
I haven't messed with the settings on FPSE either, just make sure you rip the game yourself or get a... clean source. Not the crap Rom gripper or Rom buddy downloads, as none of the games I've gotten from those two sources play on this emulator.

eh? N64oid was removed due to too many complaints on the market (lag compatability issues): http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=304814342750cb73&hl=en
also, i find that psx4droid works better on my nook (CM7 nightly #37 @ 1.1ghz) then Fpse (psx4droid has a higher framerate/better compatability)
i am using psx4droid V2 however, not V3...
EDIT: oops, im already getting offtopic

I'm curious about controller settings for NESoid. I'm finding that sometimes if I press in the middle of the screen, I'll get a B button press registered. I'm sure that I can tweak a setting somewhere that controls the actual area around the B button I have to press to get a B press registered. Curiously, it doesn't affect A. I've never had an issue where I pressed A and B registered.

The ultimate Rose software/games topic

Hi all,
Since Rose has 6.1 Standard, not all games and apps can be used. Post your favorite software that you're using on your Rose, in this topic, to make life a bit easier for everyone.
Let's start off with: Smarttoolkit, an addition to the main shell, which adds a Windows-style start menu and some more nice features. Be sure to use RC8, because newer releases seem to have issues on the Rose.

SmartGear for GameBoy, GameBoy Color, NES, GameGear, MasterSystem, TurboGrafx-16, and Genesis/MegaDrive Games (Snes-emulation in development). Costs: 10$ (Trial Version works for 2 minutes and you can't save)
Only not perfectly working with some Roms, it can't save the game then. But especially newer games are no problem. To be honest, I play pokemon with it, because I was and am still looking for decent RPG Games - pokemon is fun .

Free Dungeon Hunter HD **Today Only**

http://www.gameloft.com/free-hd-game/
I tried installing the Motorola Droid version but it just crashed on me. I haven't been able to download a different version yet. If anyone can get this working, please let me know.
I think this whole thing was a crock...user after user after user reported they couldn't get it to load and were getting an "incompatible device" message. Most of us with the issue were on a Samsung Galaxy (Fascinate in my case).
I got it to load on my evo, although I cannot get any gameloft games to run on the nook. I click the app and the screen flashes very briefly and it sends me home.
I got this version to work. It will need to download an extra 307MB worth of data

Amazingly smooth! I left the 307 embees to download while I was sleeping. This morning I was playing all the way to work. Well, had to switch to Angry Birds at some point... gotta practice my slingshot for when Goliath cometh
Aside from the cutscenes not loading this is amazingly smooth. Thank you very much for the share!
So what phone was this working version from? I would also like to get letsgolf working. It seems the res>drawable folder has a lot more stuff in it than the version I downloaded for my evo
Sent from the cloud
Most games that work on the Galaxy Tab should work the for the nook color also. I've yet to find a version of Lets Golf 1 or 2 that work though
My LG Opt 1 is running DH not as smooth as the one in youtube,
how to check if my Opt 1 is rooted ?
any advice pls....thanx guys
I had this game on my ipad and finished it. Its not that good. Im going to try it on the NC just to compare.
As for downloading additional content, look for that to be common with the new 15 min cash back rule. The clock starts when download from the market. Does not matter if app takes an additional 20 minutes of download from the apps site, you just lost refund. I also had a game that downloaded 600MB. I had a couple for ipad that downloaded 900MB.

Not its not the same version . This is a sidescrolling adventure game. I posted the details of the game in 1st post.

downloading now dude.. on phone atm so download is slow, ill let you know what i think.
Rn
the angry birds are now free!
downloaded and colected all 100 birds..
heres my feedback:
*100 birds is too little amount, increase it to 200 birds that ya gotta collect.
*make some of the blocks dissapear, eg, a certain colour block will dissapear once youve bounced on it.
...............
i like it, nice work.. ill keep watching for an update

Thanks for the feedback! I will make a harder version but for 1st version I wanted everyone to be able to play and enjoy. I will update the game with a tougher version for hardcore players.
...
hardcore version sounds cool
are you able to program it to use Gsensor for left and right buttons?
Rn
No I cant add gsensor , but I will add different types of blocks that make you jump different heights and diapearing blocks as well. I feel windows mobile users should have same type of fun as iphone/ipod users.
Attention Developers:
If you want the source to the game to make your own version , PM me your email address.
Update:
Also working on a game featuring Tiny Wings Charactors. It will not be a clone of that game but it will be just as fun and new.
thanks for the share mate..
Update:
1st Photo of Tiny Wings Bounce for windows mobile. Its comming soon!!
Will try this one...

[Q] Games with white 3d objects on Galaxy S2

Hello,
I installed NFS on Samsung Galaxy S2 and did some screenshots. All 3d objects are white/ grey. Game menu is the same, I was tapping on screen and luckilly got quick race. I hve seen this for few more games, Splinter cell and some more Gameloft games.
Even for reckless racing I have this white thing.
Where is the problem? Why game is running but without textures?

Bad game
It should be properly presented
I think it's the game that doesn't support Tegra GPUs if it is true try using Chainfire3D and the Qualcomm plugin or wait for an update from the developers
same thing happens to me when i play H.A.W.X.

HAWX works perfect on my Samsung Galaxy S2. Is there really different hardware in these phones that we face different problems?
sollution
Hi,
I had the same problem of a lot of white textures making the game not playable.
The sollution was installing chainfire3d (depending on your device it could make reflashing needed if it does not work) and the POWERVR plugin.
Once loaded, the plugin makes the colors like they should be.
It's not the game, its the hardware.
I used a POV Protab2 xxl (a10). adapted the build.prop also to make it look like a droid3 to Play Store.

The Best Android Game In The History Of The World

The Best Android Game In The History Of The World​Whenever I get a new Android device there are always the basic apps that I install right away. Dropbox, Snapchat, Twitter, and TRON GL baby!
This game has unlimited excitement that features controls that let you go left AND right! All sarcasm aside, this is my favorite Android game. It never seems to get old and I can bust it out and play it at anytime. If you have seen the Tron movie or played the game that it's based on, then you already know how the Tron lightcycle game works. It's basically two-player snake where you try to kill the other player with your light trail.
The game is free on the Play store. There are tons of clones of this game so make sure you get the original in the link below.
