The emulator rules!!! But i have a problem: can I make my jornada recognize 2 buttons at the same time? Itīs impossible to play if you canīt press 2 buttons!!!! If the Jornada cant, the emulator should have a virtual panel like poketnes... I hope you replied this Thanks a lot

That means no?

Yes, it means no, sort of. You can map some of the controls from the front four buttons to the rocker wheel which is unaffected by the "Jornada button issue". A good example is Galaga. Instead of using button 1 and 2 to move left and right, assign it to the rocker wheel. Rocker wheel down could be left, wheel up can be right. This way you can move and shoot at the sime time. Or in Donkey Kong use it to move Mario and jump at the same time. Stupid, yes it is, but like the iPAQ you have to get creative to the point where sometimes it just isn't fun anymore : ) At least Casio had their thinking caps on when they designed the E1xx series.

The joypad setup is under 'Settings' or you can tap and hold it from the traybar. There is a settings option in the menu. At that point you can build multiple profiles for different games. Good luck.

Well, I think the programmers of the emulator should make a keypad, like in Poketnes to resolve the problem. I use Poketnes and the problem of the keys is no hardware type, is software. So, if they make a virtual keypad you could press 2 keys at the same time. It a very important "to do" if they want the emulator rules, like you said first.

Itīs the actual tendency include a virtual gamepad in all emulator due to this problem. You will see: not only pocketnes has the pad, also pocketgb and there is even a virtual gamepad from micro-cheng, to play, but it only works on wince 2.1. I would like Marconelly! to reply here what does he thinks about this and what he would do. Please add the virtual pad!!!!

Techmaster is the author of MAMECE3 for HP Jornada. I'm in no way involved in the coding part of his port, just some graphics work. I think he said he'll make virtual buttons after he reads a book about Win Ce programming.

On screen buttons are on the to do list, near the top. As soon as I finish honing my programming skills by reading these excellent books.
