Plz Stickie - What games are supported on Palm OS?

Post by Girt »

Could the moderator/developer post a list of what games work on the Palm port? I know that it is not the same as SCUMM PC, since Full Throttle doesn't work: I've tried, and I've found posts (since trying) saying so.

I've searched this forum, twice, and haven't been able to find it if it's here.

Thanks,
Girt

PS - BUT - What a great engine!
Thank you for all your hard work!

I could not find the mentioned passage in the readme. But i made myself a christmas present and bought myself a copy of The Dig on eBay. But i can't start it on my TH55 (works with the windows version tough).

Palm devices (those with a large dynamic heap)."

2 New Entries in my first post.
Some Remarks:
Simon 2 works on my Palm quite well. Except that the speech is cut off if the spoken sentence is to long(or it takes to long to play the proper soundfile) till the next sentence should be played. There is also a Bug(?) exiting the game that crashes my Palm. I "use" the postcard, tap on "Quit" and try to tap on the "y" on my virtual keyboard. After that the palm either simply hangs, or there's a Pointer-Error-Dialog(w Reset Button) or (in 1 of approx. 30 cases) the engine return to the launcher.
Simon 1 seems to work. I just have to search my attic for my manual (i hate copy protection).

I also thought of making a compatibility-table (Game/Modul/Status/Bugs/Confirmed by) in the wiki, but unfortunately creating a wiki account seems a bit tricky - any chances for a change in the future?
