The Official VGA Optimised Software List

[Quboid]

I've used numerous versions of WA2 with an X50v with few problems. Using 2.4.1.4 now.

Ancient Evil Demo -there are two downloads, one for VGA devices :)

vBar 2.1 was released, fixing the landscape switching problems and making it truly VGA aware. Follow the thread here: http://www.aximsite.com/boards/showthread.php?t=91962 or download from http://www.vieka.com

Two true VGA games:

Astraware Pixelus
Resco Game Box 1.12

I tried DockWave and it does a really poor job of displaying JPG files. I have several that I carefully resized in Photoshop and they display beautifully as a slideshow using Resco or the built-in Pictures, but with DockWave they're pixellated and have had their contrast ruined and they have jagged edges. It also looks like my Today screen background is somehow getting mixed in; it's a faint grid and I can see a grid pattern on my pictures in DockWave.

I've been testing some VNC programs today and I noticed something that i thought should be mentioned here.

PocketPC VNCViewer Client (http://www.cs.utah.edu/~midgley/wince/vnc.html), this free VNC viewer works in QVGA/VGA and even trueVGA (which is a must for me!)

While the rather expensive PTvncHiRes v1.02 mentioned on this list does not work in trueVGA!

Here is a screenshot of me PocketPC VNCViewer Client running in trueVGA:

I kept looking for PocketPC VNC clients today and i found Mocha VNC (http://www.mochasoft.org/vnc/vncms.htm) which is both faster running in trueVGA on my X50v and offers more functions than the VNC clients mentioned be me above.

Edit: One downside though, it aint free!

Hello.
Fresh screensaver Timberland is VGA optimized.
Also as Psycho Path game

[dcosten]

Pocket Genealogist from Northern Hills Software supports VGA resolution (in both portrait and landscape modes).

To give you an idea, you can see screenshots from their site, comparing the various VGA modes and portrait/landscape.

The Riverland and Tribe screensavers also will fully support VGA screens. HandyEnt is busy at work, and soon I will announce the updates.

Full VGA support, encryption, desktop-client, and simply my favorite notes-program: Tombo.
http://tombo.sourceforge.jp/En/
It's open-source, so it's free.

greetings,
cmdkeen

Thanks for the updates. I'll double-check the links and include the apps in my next edit, which should be in a couple of weeks.

[Mobile Stream]

Another game optimized for VGA
Jackpot Casino (VGA)

This list is a (non-exhaustive) compilation of software that is VGA optimised, for use with your Axim x50v. Feel free to post replies informing us of any updates to the existing listed software, or to tell us about new releases.

The list was originally compiled by one of our members here, obvious. Full credit goes to him for the time and effort spent in drawing up such an informative list. :approve:

Please note that we do not guarantee that any software will run on the x50v, only that it has been advertised as being able to do so whilst taking advantage of the VGA screen, either natively or via a 3rd party hack (such as SE_VGA or Oz_VGA). Installation/purchase of software is at your own risk.
