Super Mario War

Super Mario War is a Super Mario multiplayer game.
The goal is to stomp as many other Marios as possible to win the game.
It's a tribute to Nintendo and the game Mario War by Samuele Poletto.

The game uses artwork and sounds from Nintendo games. We hope that this noncommercial fangame qualifies as fair use work. We just wanted to create this game to show how much we adore Nintendo's characters and games.

Features bots for single player games.

Thanks Pickle for your Wiz port source!

Open Handhelds Browser

this program is meant to be used on the Caanoo Handheld, it browses the Open Handhelds archive for the Caanoo (www.openhandhelds.org) - at least in its current form - using simple heuristics and can install apps directly from the caanoo but only if:
1) the archive file is in a zip file (tar, rar, 7z etc TBD)
2) the archive contains precisely 1 .ini file with a matching directory
3) the file is not too big

any additional libraries contained in the archive will not be recognized.

Note that this program will write on the SD card, as such it can potentially ruin things badly (it has some basic sanity checks, though), in other words:
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

it needs the python+pygame+albow package
(http://dl.openhandhelds.org/cgi-bin/caanoo.cgi?0,0,0,0,19,774 )

Start up the network (wifi or usb) before starting.

Python, Pygame, Numpy, Albow

Compile of Python 2.6.7, Albow 2.1, pygame 1.9.1 and numpy 1.6.1 for the Caanoo unzip into the root directory of the sd card. this installs a /python directory with everything.The /python/python script sets up the environment and preloads the touch screen lib. If you have a pygame program (for example) then: /mnt/sd/python/python yourpygamescript.py from its directory should get you going. (see the Openhandhelds browser for an example use) Note that: - all the .py files have been precompiled to pyc, and the .py files removed; this may or may not be a good idea; comment on this if you see a reason to include the .py - no special provisions are made for the Caanoo. Simple pygame applications which use only the mouse will probably be usable without changes, but anything using the keyboard needs some work...

Zelda Mystery of Solarus XD

Zelda Mystery of Solarus XD is a parodic mini-game. The game was released on April 1st, 2011. While it was initially just an April 1st joke, Zelda Mystery of Solarus XD is a real game with two huge dungeons and 5 to 10 hours of playing. But don't expect a game that looks like others: everything is possible here!

Played better without music.

GigaPack Ginge for Caanoo

2011/08/15

Outcast

This is a direct port of the last Wiz build of OutcaST, with some very minor improvements. (A couple more menus have better 'selection speed', so the selection isn't zooming around as much.. notably in the Control Mode menu.)

Hopefully it performs better than when run as a Wiz binary under Ginge; sound is probably still nasty as I was never really good at working out the ST sound hardware, but hopefully better than under Ginge again

Get the emu here for now:
http://www.codejedi....-caanoo-104.zip

Unpack into your /game directory on your ST (ie: /game/outcast.ini and /game/outcast/random-stuff should exist.)

You'll want to read the README.txt, but in general..
Create /roms
Create /roms/atari-st
Stick your TOS.ROM Atari ST OS file into /roms/atari-st (it must be TOS.ROM, not ToS.RoM or TOS.IMG or anything other than TOS.ROM, case sensitive.)
Stick .ST or .MSA or .zip disk images into /roms/atari-st as well.

It should run nicely from your Caanoo menu, and the run-script will attempt to run the Caanoo menu on exit or crash. (You can edit this to be gmenu if you like, if you've not just replaced your Caanoo menuw ith gmenu

Please let me know how it goes, and..

Enjoy!

Virtual Jaguar

Hi,

Riviera71 from the French Caanoo Community ported Virtual Jaguar. It's an early port and things need to be improved.

Launch a game :

- first you need to recalibrate the stylus, because the Caanoo screen is smaller than the Emu menu. 2 or 3 pixels down can do the trick.

- launch the emulator

- touch the screen when it's black

- go to Jaguar ---> Load

- you're in the rom directory, your roms should appear here

- select your game, it must be highlighted in orange

- click on Load, the game must ALWAYS be highlighted or it won't launch. Load must be highlighted in WHITE, the game in ORANGE.

- if it's ok, it will go back to the first menu screen

- go to Jaguar ---> Reset

and be patient, it's really slow.

Controls :

Direction: D-PAD
Jaguar C : Caanoo A
Jaguar B : Caanoo X
Jaguar A : Caanoo B

Home : emu menu

It needs to be improved, any help would be really appreciated.

Drsms V3 Released Sega Master System & Game Gear Emulator

Hi,

I've updated my DrSMS port for the Caanoo.

For those of you who do not know what DrSMS is, its a Sega Master System and Sega Game Gear emulator, the download is below.

http://reesy.gp32x.d...oo/drsms_v3.zip

Changes

DrZ80 fixes for SET (HL) and RES (HL) opcodes, they were not using memory handler and so breaking memory paging in some games ( fixes Shining Force 2 and others )

Interrupt code re-worked. Fixes lots and lots of Games.

You can now redefine your keys. Go to the SMS or GG option screen and use the Define Keys option. You then save these new settings as your default for all games, or set them just for the current game...just use the "Save Global Settings" or "Save Settings For Current Game" option.

Installation Instructions

Extract the contents of the release zip file to the apps directory on your SD card.
Copy your zipped or unzipped SMS/GG roms anywhere you want on the SD card..just remember where you put them.

DrSMS should now appear on your Caanoo APPS menu, select it to launch it.

The menu is pretty straight forward, just go to the SMS or GG rom select option.
Browse to where you stored your roms and select the game you want.

Default In Game Keys ( you can redefine the SMS ones now but quick save/load & menu are not changeable)

UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT = SMS UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT
X = SMS Button 1
B = SMS Button 2
I - SMS Pause Button / GG Start Button
L - Quick Load
R - Quick Save
Home - Enter Menu

Thats about it, just leave a post here if you get stuck and someone will help you.

Later
Reesy
