MotionApps Classic running GTS: World Racing
MotionApps has released a video that demonstrates GTS: World Racing, a 3D racing game for PalmOS, running on their Classic app for the Palm Pre complete with sound.
The video also demonstrates one of the issues that arises when trying to emulate a stylus-driven resistive touchscreen on a fingertip-driven capacitive touchscreen – the precision of the stylus tip is gone, and interfaces designed for it can be difficult to navigate without it.
If you look closely, you can see Classic giving feedback as to where it’s registered the virtual stylus press so you can adjust your aim – which is where the demonstrator is going wrong, choosing to repeatedly press the same area of the screen.
MotionApps has also posted a detailed FAQ that should answer most of your questions regarding the PalmOS emulator.
