gemrb.cfg needed for android

[Guest Guest_Johannes_*]

hey guys,

 

first i want to thank you in advance for this wonderful project, playing ad&d stuff on my smartphone would be awesome!

 

unfortunately i really dont get it running, i think i am too stupid to set up my gemrb.cfg properly. could somebody post his entire cfg here to let me see what i did wrong? i am running a lg optimus speed dual core smartphone.

 

here is my version and it wont run:

 

GameType=bg2

 

 

GameName=Baldur's Gate 2

Width=640

 

 

 

Height=480

 

 

 

Bpp=32

 

 

Fullscreen=1

TooltipDelay=500

AudioDriver = openal

VolumeAmbients = 80

 

 

VolumeMovie = 80

VolumeMusic = 80

VolumeSFX = 60

 

 

CaseSensitive=1

 

 

EnableCheatKeys=1

GamePath=./

CD1=./CD1/

CD2=./CD2/

CD3=./CD3/

CD4=./CD4/

CachePath=./

SavePath=./

 

 

GemRBPath=./

GUIScriptsPath=./

PluginsPath=./

GameDataPath=data

 

 

GameOverridePath=override

GemRBOverridePath=@DATA_DIR@

GUIEnhancements=1

 

 

 

 

logcat gives out several reasons. at the moment it says the cfg. file wasnt found. i placed it in the main dir of gemrb, also the game (bg) is pasted there directly.

 

thanks for your help!

 

cheers

You renamed GemRB.cfg.sample to GemRB.cfg?

Setting 'Bpp' to 16 increasing fps.

Comment out 'CaseSesitive'.

'CachePath' should be ./Cache/

 

Comment out these lines

SavePath=./

GUIScriptsPath=./

PluginsPath=./

GameDataPath=data

hey man,

 

thanks for your answer! i quoted alot of stuff out and now it runs.

this is really an AWESOME port, the game runs smoothly and feels right, thank you so much!

 

just two things left im curious about:

 

- the f-keys seem not to work. i remapped them with physical and on-screen buttons but they dont do their function (adressing the hotkey buttons like attack, chat etc.). is there any other way to adress a hot-actionbutton to a physical key?

- resolution. i play on a 4" screen with 640x480 and everything is pretty small. changing to smaller resolutions dont work (blackscreen). is there any possibilty to downscale the resolution?

 

thank you,

j.

f-keys don't work, since gemrb doesn't support proper key mapping yet and we don't want to add more hacks.

downscaling is possible, the dingux port halves it to 320x240, but I think we didn't include that code yet.

I'm posting in this topic because it's related to the problem I'm having and I didn't want to clutter up the forum. I can't get BG2 to run with GemRB on my LG Optimus V. In alogcat, it's saying something along the lines of "cache mnt/sdcard/app-data/net.sourceforge.gemrb/cache/ could not be created".

 

This is my cfg file:

Can anybody help me out? Thanks in advance!

[lynx]

why are you using a relative path?

 

PROTIP: if you don't want to clutter the forum, put the config somewhere else and/or strip it off all the comments and empty lines.

Recently, i found a bug in the handling of cache path on windows.

Apparently, it cannot handle path names with a slash in the end.

I suggest everyone download the newest git head.

[Cruester94]

I'm using GemRB for baldur's gate 2 on my android tablet. Is there anyway to use the CluaConsole on my android?

[lynx]

I'm not sure to what it was bound on that ancient version, if at all.
