Pocket-pc Phone First problem

[OmniArts]

yeah, this version doesn't work.. icons are fine but no phone first.
the call takes a while to come up, and then the game completely minimizes, when i tried to answer the call the phone locked up.
This was on 240 x 320

[OmniArts]

Both work for me, but after the call if I select to exit the game instead of continue it comes up with a message saying
"Apalia: Arena of Swords" has ended unexpectedly, do you wish to send an error report to microsoft etc etc"

This error report also appears now when exiting the game normally.

Thanks, all. I'm trying to see what's wrong...

[OmniArts]

It works fine for me, tested on two 240 x 320 devices.
It no longer crashes when exiting the game

Cheers!

Chai, can you test on the other devices?

But the game doesn't know you have hang up the phone.
Here in my device, I need to close the phone screen to see the gabe in the background.

You can't return to the game or you only don't see the game screenshot ?
Is the same behavior in all devices?

[Chai]

Dear makslane:

It will return to the game when we click continue game button on the bottom of screen.

For your question's answer, It should be don't see the game screen short.
It just did not show the Game screen after hang up the phone.

[makslane]

ok, thanks

[makslane]

I don't know how to get the screenshot of the game window without get the incoming window on top too.
In some devices this works and the screenshot have only the game image.

One possible solution is not make a screenshot. This works, but what can the game show to the user? A blackscreen? A game pause text?

[Chai]

Dear Makslane;

In my opinion, I prefer a game pause text better than black screen
Because Pause text will tell our user that their Devices and Games are still running.

However, if you would like to go with the pause text,
you must create some function that we can edit a text to match with our game.

Best regards,
CHAI

I think the screenshot is working (at least in my tests).
Please, test this version.

Dear Makslane;

This "Pocketpc.bin" is not good.
Because it makes my device hang when I have someone calling.
And after that, a game does not resume even I press "the continue game".

Moreover, I try to copy "deviceinfo.txt" out
but it cannot be not done,
because it is still a blank file.

In my opinion, the file before this "pocketpc.bin" file is more completed than this time,

Best regards,
CHAI

[makslane]

Can you tell me if is the same behavior in a rotated and non rotated game?
