Hi Giles, happy its fast for you too: for the line-drawing (input) thing, i think your device’s manufacturer should optimize/rewrite the stylus input driver: i know some devices have an odd slow-down when the user is using the stylus, also my Acer n50 indeed has this “problem” but not so heavily.
I’ve no way to workaround that problem in a generic fashion, so i hope manufacturers will address this issue.

Great program =) many thanks!

works perfectly fine on my Tytn (spv m3100)

only weird thing is that when you are drawing lines, it lowers the speed by about half, not that it matters because when you release the drawing button it goes nice and smooth =D

look forward to updates! =D

Brillent this is!!!!
love it lol

my one and only things is that you cant save a lay out! i have spent ages setting up screens, that change water to steam and back to water and grow “trees” that get burnt and then regrow.
(takes me hours lol)
and i would love to be abble to save them.
Also a list of waht the different sands do and affect would be nice.
i assume they are earth,water,ice and some stuff that burns???
but i am still not quite sure.
Also the ability to turn the different streams on and off would be nice
Cheers
Aaron

New version definitely works in VGA on a Dell X51V. Speed is good also. I got hooked on the desktop version of this - nice to be able to take it with me to play on the go. Thanks for porting it over to PPC!

Thank you Shane: sure you helped my alot in saying your log file is nearly identical to the CrayfishÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s one: hope to release the new version this week!

My log file is nearly identical to Crayfish’s. With the exeption of the OEM string [ OEM string: HP iPAQ hx2495 (unknown) ], hWnd, and a few times and dates.

I tried running in landscape mode. I also tried installing the program to the device instead of the memory card. My device refused to run the app in each instance.

I hope this helps. Keep up the great work!

I think i got it: thank you for reporting this btw!
Also, i plan to release a new version that will correct this problem and add pixel-doubling feature to VGA devices: hope to be able to do it soon!
