is it possible to map the same button on two separate keyboard keys?

example X axis: (a,d) and (z,c)
Y axis: (s,x)
in this way we can press for example up and left or down and right without problem. So diagonals would be simple to use

sorry for my english..

same suggestion here ^^. It would be more simple to play 3d games like mario 64

Try accelerometer control, you'll be glad you did ;)

The last bit of the script is to draw attention to that potential scenario and provide a hint how to resolve it.

Using /tmp for the file would mean that at least it gets cleaned upon reboot.

The QT GUI looks uglier. The issue is that they just don't scale down to the N900 screen size, and it has to be done manually, or just skip it altogether and create a new GUI (because, for a start, are we ever going to use another sound or video plugin? no need for that dialog).

The Pandora solves this by having DPI!=Screen DPI[*] so that fonts and buttons are small, very small. On the N900 (3.5inch) this would look too small.

* Note: the N900 actually does this too but then increases the default font sizes.

Just gave this a bash and... WOW! Supermario plays perfectly with no OC as many people have stated. most importantly though is that there is a version of starcraft for the n64!!!! I gave it a try, seems to work if a little slow but has some major graphical issues :(

So many people on this forum have been looking for a copy of this game, looks like an N64 version would make for a good play! ;)

I love this idea, it'd make every game more playable...tony hawks, starcraft, star fox, mario kart, doom 64 would all be a breeze to play. Not to mention fighters like super smash bros, which is a pain to play currently....I've been bragging about this for a long time and sadly I don't think anyone is gonna consider the idea -_-, and I mean no offense to anyone, but I seriously hate accelerometers, twisting and turning phone sucks, not to mention how it'd look in public....

I don't know if it should be like that but mupen doesn't show the gui althogh i am able to run games.
I tried both "mupen64plus" and "mupen64plus my_rom.z64". I can see mupen64plus info in the terminal but the gui isn't shown.

I can't set the mupen64plus file to executable using chmod for the first run and keep on getting permission denied error whatever I try. Please could someone help with this?

double check that you are in the directory where the executable is. than run "chmod +x mupen64plus" don't type the whole mupen64plus, but only part of it and press tab button on screen (it should complete what you written)

Run this command:
Code:

chmod +x [filename here]
It allows the file to be executed. ;)
Oh and, do not include the [ and ], theyre just to show.
