Bad news people I have the Axim 400Mhz / 64 and when I play the NES Roms after a while they slow down music and all am I the only one experiencing this if I am does any one have any suggestions???

Which program are you using? If it's the venerable (IMHO lol) Pocket Nester, usually all I have to do is pause/unpause the game by tapping the screen twice, and it goes away.

Pokenes is horrible if your using that... it always freeze. You should use YAMACE or it's called something like that its the best and it never slows down on me.

i've found that pocket nester will slow down after awhile. was playin super V ball and noticed fps drop considerably.. i'll try the pause/unpause trick to see if that helps.

Yea I shoulda said from go I am using nester. Could ya give me a link on that yamace thingy and I LL try that one out

I third this - use YameCE!!!

I've tried the others, and they suck in comparison. Sure Yame has its problems, but other than those it is *perfect* in every other way (as soon as you change the language from Japanese!)

And it (I think - haven't gotten it to work just yet... tried, but failed) also plays GB, TG16 and a whole bunch of other systems...

Let us know what you think! ;)

I got my emulator off the axim site a while back, since they are under construction i would check back in the download section every so often. I tried doing a yahoo search but it was hard to find the emulator because its in jap sites so i dont know what or where to click to get it...

For those who want YameCE, here it is, from Forgotten Files. (Grab the ARM version)

Hey Thanks Rhyno, that page has a few other PPC freeware I am tryn out.

Sunami · 02-18-03, 03:37 PM

Maybee I am an idot but I can not get Yamace or Hexen or heretic to work :rolling:

Pepsi_blue · 02-18-03, 05:10 PM

You know all you have to do is click and drag the yame ce over to anywhere on your pocket pc. Click on it and it should run..........

Sunami · 02-18-03, 05:28 PM

yea, I am not that stupid I put them on my CF and well hexen and heretic was starting up but when I actually tried to play them they said error " W_InitFiles: no files found " and as for Yamace I it would not run my roms the roms work great for nester. Help...

Your NES ROMs aren't zipped are they??

PocketNester supports zipped ROMs.
YameCE doesn't...

no they arent zipped...

desiv · 02-19-03, 02:15 AM

Hmmm

I don't think I've played any game long enough to see a slowdown, but I usually only have time for quick games...

I'll do some testing...

p.s. I was looking at the small screen size (without stretching) of the GB emulation in YameCE, and then I set my Axim down on top of my old gameboy.. Hey, it's not small!! It's accurate!!!! :-)

I forgot how small the original gameboy screen was!!
