Ported PC games for HTC Diamond: Warcraft 2, Duke3D, Wolfenstein, Doom... - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Thanks to Drakey83 from htcgeeks - this is copypasted text..
Warcraft II
Requirements: Any VGA Pocket PC or PDA PDA Phone with plenty of memory to spare.
Overview: The single player storyline is basically a frame tale for combat and devoid of plot development during missions, which is usual for early RTS games but in contrast to some later ones, including StarCraft and Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos. The game is set six years after the fall of Azeroth (the orc campain ending from Warcraft: Orcs & Humans) in the First War in Warcraft: Orcs & Humans. The Orcs have decided to conquer the lands to the north and acquire Lordaeron for their empire, and the battles to follow would later be known as the Second War.

More Info: Wargus was ported to Pocket PC by a great russian programmer that goes by the name n0p. Wargus uses a mobile version of the Stratagus game engine. The version I've uploaded here is the English VGA Version that has been optimized by me to run as well as possible and also to look as much like the original Warcraf II as possible. The first change I made to the code was th change the intro screen to be the original Warcraft II screen intest of the ugly Stratagus screen, the second change to the code I made was with the sound files, now insted of like six or seven phrases per character there is only one or two, to save momory usuage, also I changed the icon to be the original Warcraft II icon, along with all of that I also included all of the patches and fixes that are currently available, hope you ENJOY!
Code:

http://rapidshare.com/files/90257783/Warcraft_2_PPC_VGA__freeware__with_game_files.rar.html
I uploaded game to my portals server with unlimited bandwidth so there must be no problems for anyone to download.. If you have memory problems with game try downloading it from second link provided (rapidshare)..
Click on the download link, download .zip file, unzip files, put the Warcraft II files on your SD or CF card, and then simply go to SD Card(or CF Card)\Warcraft II and click on the new Warcraft II icon to play.
EDIT: problem with the screen align, go to options in the main menu, select video resolution 640x480 and mark the Fullscreen checkbox ( which is unmarked as default ) after this change it's working perfect

Don't know about warez and stuff, but I was fast enough to catch that link.
Thank you very much

hummm it sounds great!
let me try it.i will let you know my impresions.
thanks!

Duke Nukem 3D Atomic
Ported application from spv3d. I changed some settings in duke3d.cfg file like UsingGapi to 0 so it looks like this "UsingGapi = 0" without setting it the game didnt show graphics. The fps count is enabled and showing 10-20fps on Diamond (TF3D disabled of course). I have problems with setting sound device & also some controls problems... Anyone who has some time to test please post your results here somewhere
The response in game menu is slowed down so it might take a few presses before you actually press the menu link. Once in the game you can shoot by tapping anywhere on the screen & move with buttons up, down, left, right.. as said before it would be great if someone could find a way to control the movement trough touchscreen...
Here are some pics of game runnin I have take:
Download link (19,2mb):

Doom
NOTE :
You need some wad files for running the game.
currently supported wad files are:
doom1.wad
doom.wad
doomu.wad
doom2.wad
doom2f.wad
plutonia.wad
tnt.wad
Note that not all of these files intend to run perfectly and you may experience some problems with some of them.
Doom1.wad the shareware version seemed to work perfectly.
For music you can put a file called doom.wav in same directory.
Included Doom1.wad for testing purposes... Game running smooth on Diamond.. up down left right movement & shooting..
Download link... only ~1,5mb
Code:

Awesome!!!!
Doom is a classssiccc.
But how do I exit Doom.
Thanks kick asss!!!

I noticet that annoying problem too! It works fine under menu.. but in game its moved so its difficult to select the character or click the button to walk
P.S. Heretic port doesnt work for our HTC devices.. only with OpenGL-ES port for Dell AXIM X50V and X51V (and any PocketPC which contain the intel 2700g graphic chipset)

Hi thanks for the games! warcraft 2 is great! about the problem with the screen align, go to options in the main menu, select video resolution 640x480 and mark the Fullscreen checkbox ( which is unmarked as default ) after this change it's working perfect in my diamond!

Ha. Ha. Ha.
And I thought my jokes were bad.
Seriously, now - Warcraft II, it's story, characters, graphics and sound files are (c) Blizzard Entertainment. Warcraft II is not abandon-ware, nor is it free. Most of the abandon-ware talk is myth anyway - there's barely any abandon-ware available.
Nevertheless, since I legally own Warcraft II, it is legal to download this since, indeed, it is a remake on a different engine, using stuff legally licensed to me by Blizzard Entertainment.
This is warez, but at least this form is rather acceptable (although the data files should not be in the archive to be fully legal - instead, it should contain information on how to load the Warcraft II data files into Stratagus).

My bad I thought it was just Stratagus and being called something else.

hahahhahaha. give me a break mate. Even if you've got the original. Doesn't mean that you can have a copy of it. This is a port as well. Mean you can't edit any copyright. Cheers

Is it possible for somenone to make Command & Conquer Red alert for the HTC Diamond? I would love to play that game on my HTC, it was a bit like this game graphic wise.

warcraft ends after 5 min
Great work, loved it on my old pc! Now on my Diamiond, nice!
One problem: after some minutes of playing the game will just end. Looks like the app is just killed.
No error message, enough device memory, problem both in human or orc mode..
Only thing could be that I installed it on the internal storage instead of device memory (since device memory has only 15MB left).
One other thing could be that I just unzipped the whole into my internal storage. The included readme says to replace some files in a folder, only there is no such folder so I didn't make any change..
Any of you guys having the same problem? Please help, tnx!

Yeah it works fine up untill you have like 30 people on the screen then it just turns off because it runs out of memory... you have to save often and just restart your game whenever it crashes so its semi-playable..

On a post nr. 4 added Duke Nukem with download links..
Also I found this great port. Its only shareware version but looks nice to try...
Age of Empires for Pocket PC 1.25
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/Games/Strategy/Age-of-Empires-for-Pocket-PC-10066.shtml

Ok, thanks a lot for clearing up this problem. Guess we'll just have to live with it.. keep saving!
Thanks again for bringing back the good old Warcraft memories! Respect!

i have my PSP and PS3 for gaming... out loved Diamonds dont have the muscle or the hardware (buttons) to support this games

[Game] Vexed ! (updated:20/06/2008)

Hi forum,
it has been about one year that I follow threads on xda-developers and I thank to all of you So, I decided to share something that I've done.
If you owned a PalmOS device in the past, sure you know this old blocks game that has roots in Puzznic. I’m a big fun of Vexed since the 1st PalmOS version. In 2002, I really missed this game when I bought my 1st pocket pc and decided to write it for that platform. Since then, I have a never ending Vexed project for Windows platforms that lives almost only on my pocketpc and my laptop. The game was only distributed to a couple of friends during these years since I was not able to convince myself on its quality to release it. A couple of months ago I’ve finally decided to seriously finish and package it as a freeware as the PalmOS version. But it's still hard to finish
So, what I expect by publishing it here for the 1st time is your support and feedback
The level packs and graphics are taken from sourceforge project of Vexed here: http://vexed.sourceforge.net/
The source code is entirely written by myself. This is an early beta version. Feel free to send feedback to fix things. Check options if block animations are not smooth for your device.
Regards,
palmhook

Build 385 with WM5/6 VGA and PocketPC 2003 support:
Hi guys, thank you all for your interest !
- I prepared a quickn'dirty patch to make it run in VGA. The new build 385 should run double sized (as qvga emulation in VGA PPC2003).
- I just added a PocketPC 2003 version, enjoy it !
Build 423 with WM5/6 and PocketPC 2003 multi-resolution (QVGA/VGA/square) and mui support: I'm pleased to announce the new version with lots of improvements
- Almost all WM resolutions supported: QVGA/VGA portrait/landscape/square resolutions are now supported (except Options dialog which only display correctly in portrait mode)
- Multi language support: I added initially English and some limited translation to French and Turkish languages (help file is still in English), If you want Vexed in your own language, you can translate a plain rc text file and I'll be happy to compile and add resource dll to the next release
- Many bugs fixed
2008-06-19 mui problem reported by gundalbert is fixed, better screen layout on square and landscape resolutions, minor improvement for selection dot positioning
2008-06-18 Window layout bugs introduced with multi-resolution have been fixed
2008-06-17 Fixed level pack dialog bugs (level pack info does not display) reported by kandjar
2008-06-16 Fixed a small bug where next button on toolbar allows user to continue beyond the last solved level by quickly tapping on this button before it gets disabled. Now, game engine checks game options and do not allow going beyond when all levels is not checked.
2008-06-07 Fixed the "replayed level with a better score does not update total score" bug reported by mab1712. Fixed the "level pack change is not updated in the ini file" bug reported by multiple users: Rescue9, RaymondB
2008-06-01 Fixed a nasty old bug that blocks the game at the end of a level pack. Now it displays properly a message box then asks for a new level pack (was reported by multiple users: kinderenh, lover, mab1712, jem777)

- External blocksets: I added some sort of block skinning. There's a new 'Blocks' folder under Vexed install directory where I put external png images for blocksets. Some bitmap resolutions do not resize well in my experiments. Vexed will scan this folder to let you pick another one in options dialog. That means that, if you do not like the game resolution or brick colors, you may change it
- Smartphone version is still pending, I focused my effort on PPC stability, if there's an interest I may work on it.
Upgrading from a previous version: You must remove the old Vexed.ini file which is not compatible with build 423 (details are here)
French version in 240x240 resolution
Great!
I also missed this game from earlier Palm dates. I tried Next and was not really impressed with it.
Thanks for this release. I am sure others will love this games and am looking forward for your next update.
Thanks....
Never played, I´ll give it a try and let you know my feedback
Thanks for share your work

Hi,
Used to enjoy this very much on my Palm.
Any thoughts to making this available for us VGA users?
Would like to have this again.
I've gotta second what's here: THANKS!!!!!
I've missed the game from my dad's Zire. Now my 6800 can have it too.
So much for productivity, now that I've got so many games.
Used to play this a lot on my Palm. Can you make a version compatible with WM2003?
Thanks for the game

Hi.
It works smoothly but displays incorrectly on a 240x240 device (not unexpected, I suppose...). Please see attachment.
Cheers,
Fabio
Thank you. I'll be giving it a try.
Thanks. Works great on xda flame (vga)
Thanks! I used to love this game on my Palm! This is great!
thanks, great game
Soooo lovely! Takes me back 20 years...
Man, this is just great.
Never knew this game before, not having used a Palm, but it's really, really nice. Good game, great port, superb implementation!
Kudos, palmhook.
On a more practical note, I've played this for about an hour now and the game behaves; no lock-ups, no crashes, works as it should.
thanks for the game.....
Man I play that game for about a week and I'm in love with please, please release a VGA version
I love logical games but this one is probably the best what ever i play! Thanks a lot man!

[GAME] Cube 2005 running HW 3D Accelerated on my Diamond !

Hello guys, you must have meet me in other thread such as "OMG!!! i got quake 3 ce running on my Diamond !" and others-alike, so with no further delay i present you another hardware accelerated 3D FPS:
Cube 2005

(actual screenshots from my 1.93 stock Diamond ROM)
Installation procedures:
1- download Cube PPC from here: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/cube/cube_2004_05_22_pocketpc_bin_xscale_opengl_es.zip
2- download libgles_cl.zip from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=415523 and extract the libgles_cl.dll wrapper to \Windows
3- make sure you enable TouchFlo (yes, it must be activated!)
Ain't got much time to test it, but you can read a more through review here: http://www.mobilitysite.com/boards/games/125311-all-your-cube-3d-questions-answered.html
Also many thanks to NuShrike who come up recently with the CL wrapper, whom without it, it would be impossible to have this running on our Diamonds (and probably on Raphael's too)
I've made a video and uploaded it to youtube, check it out (sorry about the non-focused image, my HP cam can't do better)

Well, should run on the Kaiser too.
Does look better than your Heretic demo... I wonder why some works and some doesn't.
Never heard of this game before. Will have to look into this.
Thanks a lot.
Can´t extract, "File Corrupted or dammaged"
Hmm, good test of graphics once again. TF3D goes to Tap here to launch TouchFlo screen, and doesn't come out of it until a softreset.
EDIT: Ok, it seems Flip It (screen auto rotate utility) caused the glitch of TouchFlo.
However I can still run Cube with or without TouchFlo at same speeds, with same rendering and same FPS. Cube does, however give off different colours when you move around in the game.
Strange, your rendering in the youtube clip is near enough perfect, at least in comparison to mine.
I cant start the game with Cube.exe.. comes a error saying it cant be opened..
The ".DLL" file is suppose to go "Internmemory > Windows" or "/" > Windows"
Menu?
Ok ! seems to run ok on my touch diamond. but how do i change button config and access ingame menus?
http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=ShCi7Jh61p0
touch diamond, touch flow on
is that the same file that makes cod2 run better as well?
Libgles_cl.dll is a fairly new discovery, it's libgles_cm.dll (the one used by CoD2) you're confusing it with.

Trying again..
You know.. you would think somebody would write a BT keyboard and mouse driver so you guys can play these FPS naturally.
iRiKi why don't you tell us how unplayable is, especially when playing singleplayer mode (with bots)?
About 2-5 FPS when bots are near you. So totally unplayable.
+ textures are waxed (when moving, you can see through them or gets black)
Conclusion: no joy
this is an open.-source freeby from 2004 that never was updated, besides this game isn't even supposed to run on htc's, just axims, the funny part is recently someone came with a libgles_cl renderer which allowed us to actually run the game. it has some rendered bugs (black areas) which hopefully will help developers improving the wrapper.
now DSF, what have YOU done for the community (besides whinning) ?
THPS2, Quake 3 which also uses OpenGL ES CL/CM have low FPS. I really don't want to start again and again to make comparison between an old 2005 device and those HTC+Qualcomm devices
Okay... this will go offtopic but I have to write this.
With all those posts I actually help. I wish I could read about the performance of touch pro BEFORE buying it. But actually haven't found information about this, so I thought to myself, at least HTC has succeeded to bring good graphics performance. But.. that is false.
Reading your first post, one may think that this game is running good or very good. You haven't said anything about poor low frame rate, it's totally unplayable with bots. If we hide these "details" do you think we can resolve anything?
I will continue to post the truth about touch pro/diamond so :
1) people will know that there are very good alternatives to HTC+Qualcomm (eg: Omnia+Marvell)
2) HTC will try to improve/work on this area (though I don't think this will be happen . see the past htc class auction + the costumer interaction experience is extremely poor, they don't admit that those device have MULTIPLE problems, not only related to graphics but also to GPS, sound, drain, etc etc)
This should be announced to a large scale.
.. The problem is that many persons thanks their self with all those poor thingy... or they start to compromise.
- gps has lag, so what? at least I have GPS
- sound breaks? it's not an ipod, come on!
- crappy speackerphone/earpice? umm.. nothing is perfect
- sluggish UI experience? eeh.. it's a WM
- poor OpenGL performance? so what? at least it has hardware acceleration
- battery drains quickly? man it has a VGA screen and this beauty is fully packed! (even if you use one function at a time)
- ETC ETC
Some of us just find apologies for all these issues. Why? I mean WHY? We paid for every feature in the phone and it's not normal to perform (below) mediocre.. Another counter-replies for the real/palpable issues from *some* HTC fanboys are "get an iphone". This conception is so wrong.. Maybe they are thinking that are superior to the others because they use the PPC for business purpose lol. They said it like they want WM to be sluggish when coming to entertainment. WM is more than mail, internet, office dudes. It's a portable pocket PC. A PC in your pocket.
Let's try to be realistic. HTC ads new features and take n steps back in terms of functions quality. This is not normal, technology evolves, prices get low, more performance, device pieces become more reliable, devices become compact, etc etc... Unfortunately HTC+Qualcomm is not our case.. they add cheap features at a high price.
BTW iRiKi, I do appreciate your work, but we must say the WHOLE story.
im not a fanboy. i already said on other threads this is the last qualcomm device i'll ever buy. but i have another pda, the Qtek S100 (known as Magician) and i can compare the diamond with the magician, and tbh it's not as bad as ppl paint. the magician battery doesn't last 2 days as the diamond, and it's 1300 mah vs 900. the performance on cod2 software is awfull, and it has to draws 4 times less pixels than the diamond. iGo is also slow on the magician.
about the gps/sound/battery rants. sorry but you're offtopic here, wanna flame htc do it elsewhere
and yes, ill say it again, to clear your doubts as htc fanboy: the diamond was the first, and also the last qualcomm device i'll ever buy.
my sister wanted a new cell, and was unsure about 3 devices: the HD, the iPhone 3G and the Nokia N96. the only advice i gave was: dont buy the htc and choose from the other 2 cells. and that's what she did
But I haven't called you a fanboy.. I was talking about the users with "get an iphone" recomandations...
Well this are little offtopic but it are a good thing that iriki give us this tips about the 3d hw on div games that will bring ppl even closer too the perfect driver and on my touch pro il get around 12-15 fps in this game but yes it have gfx bugs but what so? atleast it prove that we can run in 3d hw! And maybe in the future will we even get better drivers for this devices. Still this is alot closer to perfect games in 3d hw on the htc phones and most ppl should know that this devices can do alot more if we just get the right driver..hopefully in the future! i had a nokia n95 before this phone and i can say i dont regret at all when i did buy this phone for sure and for a note the gps did lag also in n95..on my touch pro i havent seen any lag in garmin gps so far maybe on the diamond it are just to wait for better rom that fix alot bugs for me i use elite rom on my touch pro and can say the phone are damn fast
Iriki, I don't think DSF is being critical of you. I think he just loathes HTC for letting down its consumers once again, and so he's complaining that graphics still don't seem to be at an optimum.
Of course, you are looking at it in a more positive light, which is good.
I can however see where DSF is coming from. If we become too complacent/relaxed with HTC then they will keep getting away with it, like they did with the Kaiser and now Diamond. HTC should know that its customers want a driver update, that fully utilises the advertised Qualcomm/ATI Imageon 64MB graphics chip.

There's probably some things that need to be done in the wrapper that isn't being done at all right now. The Axim probably supported texture image formats the ATI doesn't, so have to write some code to convert that ...

Hmm. Though it will be better to categorise all supported games and apps for gene in one single section. The idea is to place all the apps recommended by Gene Users in one thread which they have used and found to be working. The objective is to index all apps and games running smoothly on gene and hopefully with sufficient participation the program list will be smooth and rewarding for particularly Newbies to the Forum.
If two more people people think unnecessary please comment. i will ask MODs to delete this thread. Let's keep our gene forum clean.
I think its nice idea to share our fav apps with others. But I guess there was a thread similar to this earlier too.
Still a GOOD THOUGHT I belive.

It always drive me mad when nobody comes forward to do the task, and when one tries to do the job in his capacity, the other fellows try to criticize that by saying, "Useless", "it would have be better this way", "I could have done better", " you screwed up pal.." ... ect...
For those ppl, I have only one thing to say... F**k off you D**k Heads...
I still believe I am correct pavan...

VirtualGamepad (Demo & Beta) Released

Hi guys, after a few months and a few posts in XDA's Windows 8 Development forum, it's time for the official demo and beta release of VirtualGamepad for Windows 8 Tablet. I look forward to your feedback here and on the VirtualGamepad website. I would like to thank Netham45 for his initial release.
The Freeware Demo is obviously free, the Beta is currently in a phase of Donationware.
There's a couple of reasons for that, among them :
1 - Build a pool of dedicated Beta Testers who are going to be involved in the forums and on my issues database.
2 - Build new features that would require costly 3rd party licenses (Hardware Joystick Emulation for example).
3 - Cover some of the development costs including the website, new tablets for better support, etc. ( I don't even know if it still works on Windows RT !)
You can get the Freeware for free. You can also donate and get the Freeware, Beta and Future Release. It's your call.
Initially, netham45 wanted to release it for free to XDA members and I want to respect that. If you were a standing member of XDA by November 20th 2013, contact me to get the discount code This code is meant for XDA members only, so please do not share elsewhere. Also, please use your XDA account name to register.

Well, sadly it doesn't work on RT. Installer itself is x86 app; trying to run app gives no error, but task disappears from task manager in few seconds.

VirtualGamepad Update Version 1.01
Hello,
A new version of VirtualGamepad has been released today. This version should enable Windows RT compatibility, answer a few feature requests and address a few issues. It does require higher administrative rights as we found them necessary for certain games like Elder Scroll Online.
If you have already downloaded VirtualGamepad, log in into your account and your updates will be available here.
Windows may warned you about this new release, it is totally understandable considering the increased security requirements. I will eventually get a trust certificate allowing me to sign VirtualGamepad properly. In the meanwhile, it’s a matter of trust between you and me.
Great program should make desktop games much better on tablets. I have an 8" tablet that I run at 125% magnification, and this seems to cause some of the buttons to be off center. Not a huge deal as I can run at 100%, but heres a screenshot of what happens at 125%.

Thank you very much for this snapshot. Is it only affecting the visual aspect of the game or is the control off center too ? Does the WASD joystick work properly ? I see you have the latest update, that's great. I'll put this issue in the issues database and try to figure out a solution. I think I know how to do it... but that would require me to check what is the current value of the magnification.

Its only the visual part, for example the top left directional pad buttons look offset but they actual buttons line up with the circle where they should. So the position of the d-pad graphic would need to be lined up with the circle at 125% and everything would work.
I'll have to see how games work at 125%, I may end up just switching back to 100% when I plan to game if their graphics are messed up as well.

Well let's say they are very few... I'd really like people to participate on the forum though, get feature request, etc. Hopefully, in time enough to cover for the website and plugins cost.
When I looked at the code a few months ago and decided to completely rewrote it in C#, the idea was to answer my own need on having such a utility (Gameplay from Gestureworks was still unannounced and Overwolf's touch controller was (back then) only a video).
When PalmTime was "kinda" founded 15 years ago to do PalmOS, WindowsCE and PsionS5 development, it was a small group of developers working together on a bunch of little projects. Back then we released PocketChess with TinyWare, Pyramid, Frotz (Zork) Emulators, Missile Defense, etc. I'd like to bring that spirit back.
My intentions right now is to re-invest everything back into the development and support. It's to build some sort of community for people to share their virtual gamepad, etc. participate on the forum and issues database. Donation are nice, but for me, they don't beat the interest people may have to it. I'd rather have 20 users from XDA join in on the fun and participate on the forum right now than 1 donation... But although I'll admit, I'd like to cover for some of the cost:
Website registration.
Website skin.
Cart plugin.
Then I'd like to re-invest:
Get a Publisher Certification (found a cheap provider)
Hardware Analog Joysticks : either get a Driver Signing Certification (found a cheap provider) or embed a 3rd party solution to emulate.
Add more functionality.
Eventually push feature in the freeware, etc...
I can't download any of the demos. They all take me to an error page with "Sorry but your download link has expired."
Overlay in fullscreen?
Not sure if I'm doing something wrong. Got the program installed and created a few controls. All works fine and controls games/apps when there in a windows but as soon as I try and run anything full screen the on-screen controls disappear?!
Thanks

From the about page :
It supports “Windowed Fullscreen” and “Windowed” mode games. It does NOT support “Fullscreen” mode as it would requires injecting the UI into the game’s graphic library. Which is often perceived as a EULA violation. Regardless we are not responsible for any EULA violation resulting from using VirtualGamepad.
I modified my download page and should have put that information there somehow... It's on the feature list on the main page too. But I undersdand the confusion.
BUT it's something we, for sure, would like to implement. Put your game in windowed mode for now
VirtualGamepad v1.3.0.0 has been released
Hello,
VirtualGamepad v1.3.0.0 has been released and is available for download at http://palmtime.net/virtualgamepad/download/.
There are many new features, including an automatic update notification and self-update feature. I strongly suggest that you also register to our Facebook, Google+ or Twitter account so there won't be any need for emails in the future. You can read about the latest update at http://palmtime.net/virtualgamepad/2013/12/23/virtualgamepad-version-1-03-beta-demo/

Dreamcast (Reicast) Compatibility List/Troubleshooting (MAR 12 2014) *ALL DEVICES

*Due to certain users intentionally or unintentionally deleting and messing with spreadsheet I was forced to create the official and unofficial spreadsheets this way people can still add, but it's in a controlled environment. I was hoping to avoid this since it means more work on my part, and less frequent updates (at least until some users are added to be able to edit official).
Google Play Emulator Link
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.reicast.emulator
R6 Beta - Courtesy of hooby3dfx
Latest Compiled Beta Builds *Courtesy of ricardo85x
Download Here
For Bios:
Simple copy the files dc_boot.bin and dc_flash.bin (I also placed dc_flash_wb.bin just in case) into "This PC\SHIELD\Internal storage\dc\data"
*Please note that the bios must be placed in the internal Storage not the SDCard like the instructions original state
For Memory Card:
You must use R6 Beta (as far as I can see you can try r5).
First go into the bios (so the system menu), format the memory card in the first slot and set it up. Once done, you should now be able to save games.
Recommendations
-Try converting GDI to CHD, saves a lot of space on disk (use program Here Windows) Thanks to ricardo85x

Rules/Guidelines For Editing Spreadsheet/Compatibility
1. All users and none users are welcome to alter the Spreadsheet.
2. If you do not know how to put everything in alphabetical order, simply leave 1 row empty below the list and type them there.
3. If you are using a device other than the Nvidia Shield please look for it's name among the spread sheets. If it's not there simply add a new sheet with your device's name on it. If you don't know how simply write it in forum or somewhere on spreadsheet out of the way and myself or someone else will place it where it should be.
4. All headings must be filled in with exception of Screenshot.
5. This one is not really a rule, more of a courtesy. Hit the Thanks Button for the users you see contributing. It shows you appreciate their efforts and dedication.
6. Will update more later
7. PM me to get access to official Spreadsheet, I might not see it in forum.
Emulator seems to map controls now and San Fransisco Rush 2049 seems to be running as perfect as I can tell at the moment if you want to add that to your list.
Soul Reaver - almost perfect(I can't remember any problem )
Skies Of Arcadia - Plays great, almost no graphics issues.
It is look like the Revision 6 will fix the problem with Shenmue 1.
I also recomend to use GDI or CHD.
You can convert GDI to CHD(to save a lot of space on disk) with this app for windows:

Thanks guys posted, I will have some time to get caught up this week/weekend. It's been hectic recovering from power outage and holidays.
Without doing any mapping on my own the left stick, a/b/x/y buttons, and l/r trigger worked out of the box.
I only noticed today that the dpad did not work, so i added that to the mapping. Sucks that using that will make the on-screen touch input overlay show up.
Does anyone know what the menu buttons do (when you press back)? I can tell that the left most quits.
Too bad you cant map the shield start button.
My compatibility notes:
-MDK2 - fantastic except for sniper mode, there is a gfx glitch that is drawing the floor in front of the view.
-Powerstone - perfect, minor gfx glitches
-Virtua Tennis - perfect, minor gfx glitches
-Rez - perfect, minor gfx glitches
-Street Fighter 3 Third Strike - playable but heavy gfx glitches with the 2D sprite animations
-Ooga Booga - can hear music but black screen
-Star Wars Episode 1 Racer - starts up fine but crashes at menu when you press start button
Havent been able to get to boot:
-Sega Bass Fishing
-Dynamite Cop
-Half-life/Blue shift
How do you know when the next reicast update is coming out?
OK - I'm finding a lot of 'news' on the emulator by looking at the github repo.
Dpad fix is coming soon:
github.com/reicast/reicast-emulator/commit/eedb4ac233d31ed38045e5e88672590f86bf9dff
I logged issues for MDK2 as well as one to make an official compatibility wiki!

Testing R6 now, seems great I think it fixed memory issues at least for me.
I'm still testing r5.
Just got a 32 gb sd card so I'm loading up all the games!! More updates to come.
Soul Calibur - omg basically perfect
Jet Grind Radio - playable, really glitchy graphics artifacts
Seaman - gets to screen that checks for mic, won't get past that since its not connected. ***MY GOAL IN LIFE IS TO GET THIS TO WORK***
Armada - cant get to boot
Grandia 2 seems to work. I played through the intro and first dungeon with no noticeable flaws.
Marvel vs Capcom 2 works at full speed, but with some graphical glitches in the sprites.
Capcom vs SNK 1&2 work at full speed, but have glitches in the sprites.

shenmue still crashes
Shenmue still crashes when you try to leave the dojo at the beginning of the game using the R6 beta.
Also NBA 2k does not work
R6 beta tested with Seventh Cross Evolution still gray garbled polygon graphical glitches suddenly appearing and MK Gold still semi freeze when doing the "compactor" sektor fatality (opponent body explode as ussual then action freeze until the loading screen on tower) same as in R5, thanks for your efforts!!!
Rayman 2 - Everything seems to work and speed is perfect, in the first area a lot of the ground is just big purple polygons though
Project Justice: Rival Schools 2 - Boots fine but drops back to the file menu after playing the intro
Bangai-O - Boots and the 2D graphics seem mostly OK but everything is squished into the left half of the screen
Rayblade - Boots and the 2D graphics seem mostly OK but everything is squished into the left half of the screen
Alright will record and test Shenmue past dojo thanks!
