Here is a summary of all requests for software to be ported to PalmOS. I'll try to keep this up to date as needed. ***Please note just because a request has been made does not mean it's being worked on or will ever be done*** Do not request software that does not have source-code available! It's your responsibility to find out where the source is located before asking for a port! Without the source it CAN NOT be ported, period.Tinnus and Metaview are the primary developers who can do this kind of thing, but if anyone else has experience porting software and would like to pick any one of these up you are free (and encouraged) to do so. Exult Ultima - homepage - source code available at site. MyUAE - Metaview's site - completed ;D - source code available. Wargus (Strategus) - homepage - source code available at site. Chip's Challenge - pageGemRB - Homepage - sourceTimidity TCPMP pluginDosBox - homepage - completed! Metaview's port. Decent - sourceCloneKeen - homepage, Source and Project filesFreeSCI - homepage - source available at site. - update: FreeSCI is being merged with ScummVM Sim City (Micropolis) - Info and sourcespsx4all (playstation emulator) - Tinnus is working on it. Super Mario War - sourceDungeons of daggorath - sourceJagged Alliance - sourceSmashGP - sourcePBA (Gameboy Advance emulator) |

Add SmashGP: membres.lycos.fr/matkeupon/. Source available. ZodTTD was going to port it, but he left palm before the source was available :-( |

Do you know where it came from? It looks to be a very convincing clone, unless it was released VERY recently, as the source for SimCity was only released a few months ago by EA as Micropolis. edit: Yep, clone. That was released way back in 2004-ish. This is the genuine source code to SimCity classic. For reals. EA decided to release it so SimCity could be included in the OLPC thing. |

All those sound cool, but if I could just get ps1 and or GBA on my palm, I would be the happiest camper around, Chips Challenge and Wargus would be very awesome to tho.

I don't really care one way or the other - either way I'll keep the first post updated, as long as the source actually exists for the request. I'm sure one of the mods could make a more informed decision as to where we want the discussion though.
Side note - I suppose I could also link to the relevant threads here on the forums for each of those requests - that might help keep discussion in the proper place.

Yes anything we can get for palm is a plus! Yea I tryed the SimCity, It was cool, my only complaint was that it was kinda hard to click on the icons for stuff cause they were soooo tiny, but its still pretty cool

Umm...Where's PBA?
Or is that not really going to be a port?

Does anyone have a precompiled for Cygwin version of the PRC-Tools SDL version? I want to try to port stuff, but compiling GCC is beyond my ability...

Umm...Where's PBA? Or is that not really going to be a port? That never happened. . . forget anything you have written about this. . . we were never here. . . J/K  Really, we have PPSX, so why shouldn't PBA (if we can call it that) be up there? I say it's called PBA. Not copy righted or anything but I made it, and it will be PBA. The only other good name is PSP(Palm Special Player) but Sony will probably send a C/D order. |

Wait I'm just curious....how did crimson fire make firestorm? Did they completly make one out of scratch or did they port an open source gba emulator? If they ported an open source one and SOLD it, wouldn't that be illegal?
Edit: *GASP! PBA IS THERE! I feel so proud of myself ;D. Also put a parenthesis next to PBA and say "Gameboy Advance Emulator"

Well they claim to have written their own, and of course don't show you the source, so it would take some work to prove them wrong.
Doesn't really matter as it Firestorm doesn't work anyway.

I can with Cygwin (i have prc-tools precompiled for it now), but the SDL port needs quite a bit of setting up, and i really don't want to spend all that much time if i don't know if i can even do anything with it.

NESticle, I know it's an old and out done emulator for the nes, but it could be the first ever nes hacking tool for the palm, and it has full game genie support that still surpasses most modern emulators. Lacks a lot of mapper support but still works as a tool that can alter graphics for games that have v-ram or chr-ram.. The source is available www.zophar.net/nes/nesticle.html.. I'm not sure if you can legally alter the code though with out permission, But maybe someone could rewrite it into a better yet totally different emulator. It had a great concept of emulation that was cut short.. |

Without actually looking at the code, I'm pretty sure I remember that nesticle was written in assembly, with a great deal of 486 optimization - which means it would need an almost complete rewrite to work on an ARM processor...pretty worthless when we consider we already have a fully functional NES emulator. It would be much easier to impliment new features into the NES module in LJP than trying such a huge endeavor.
