Features request

[Chrilith]

Hi,

I'd like to make a list of requested features for the next version. I'll update directly this post to reflect requests.

- wide mode with smoothing
- engines (card) auto-detection

thanks

I'm not sure if you want others to post their ideas too, but here are some things i'd like to see:

- Zire 71 supported again
- Better palm-specific documentation, like which games, devices and features are supported to make it a bit easier to start working with scummvm on pOS.
- Impoved frontend:
-- There's a lot of options that don't work (or only on some devices) which is confusing.
--Game addition in the frontend like in the normal scumm launcher (so just browse for the folder and let it detect what it is instead of typing it)
- Some nicer error messages, combined with a nice shutdown instead of requiring a soft reset.

Here is my top twelve (some of these requests are niggles and are not true feature requests)

1) Pocket Tunes support option for ARM
(CD Audio/MP3 games are giving me grief and OGG isn't optimized right now)

2) Auto game detection in the PalmOS skin like in ScummVM GUI
(Would like to see game entry and sound music setting auto configure when you navigate and select the game folder)

3) Lower default volume settings on the T3
(that sucker has the loudest speaker and default amp settings of any Palm I've ever used)

4) Higher default cache size
(4K seems to cause trouble with lots of users. Maybe change the default to 32K or 64K)

5) Mac OS X based skin generation kit
(I know I'm dreaming with this one)

6) Update of the skin generation kit to include the latest Default Skin as the sample
(so we can easily include the Audio button on our generated skins)

7) Support for The Dig and Full Throttle
(I know these will be hard to get going)

8 ) Support for 480x320 skins
(portrait and landscape too)

9) Software MIDI emulation
(for the Palms that lack the hardware)

10) Automatic switching from 320x320 potrait to 480x320 lanscape option when I open the slider on my T3
(I don't ask for much):twisted:

11) A scummvm.ini editor avaiable through the Skin Menus
(Nice Power User feature)

12) A visible battery meter during game play
(I have no idea if this can even be done)

Thank you very much.

...to be able to suspend and resume a running scummVM session, just as with most palm apps. I don't know if this is easy or even possible, but I sure as hell dislike having a garbled game session on an incoming call on my treo 650.
