Mobile Phone Gaming FAQs |
|
What are .jar, .jad, .mpn?
The extension .mpn indicates that this file is a Mophun Game. Its common
that one game is split up into 2 or more pieces (e.g.: 1_3game.mpn, 2_3game.mpn
and 3_3game.mpn). It will only work if you transfer them all. (after the last
pieces is treansfered, a msg pops up that says "new game saved" or
smth like that)
The extension .jar indicates that this game is written in java (actually
J2ME). A .jar is a normal archieve that can be opened with e.g. WinRAR. But if
you want to install a Java game on your T610 you must not decompress the .jar!
Instead just transfer it! After it is transfered succesfully, a msg pops up
that says smth like " a new game saved in blablablba"). Its "very"
common that after a java game was transfered, a error msg. pops up. In this
case the T610 deletes the game automatically. And dont be suprised that java
games run very slow and/or errors occur and/or the game chrashes. Its because
of the poor J2ME Support of the T610. Always keep your firmware up to date!
Newer firmware will make better support/performance with java games!
At least .jad. Dont mind them. These files are useless with the use of
the T610. Only if you have a nokia phone like 7210, you must have the .jad file
to install java games onto the phone.
There is one line in the jad file
indicating game name, icon and main class, eg.:
MIDlet-1:
Name, icon.png, package.MainClass
. If the jad file is missing, the icon information is gone and you won't see the
game icon on your nokia phone.
The "Game Expired" Error
What to do when you get the Error Message "Game Expired" when
starting a Mophun Game:
If you start a game and get the message 'Game Expired'
you need to:
1. Open the .mpn file with Notepad
2. Search for '00' until you find something like
'M00120031013' - this is the date you need to set
your phone to (american format, 13/10/2003)
3. Set the date on your phone to whatever is in the
file.
4. Start the game.
5. Quit, and set the date back to normal.
6. The game should now work perfectly with the current
date!
You can also use the program DateMophun-eng.exe app to determine the appropriate date.
The "TERMINAL NOT SUPPORTED" Error
That only means that this Mophon game is not supported by your Phone. In most
cases its for the T3xx. You cant do anything to get it work! Sometimes there
are 2 versions of a Mophun game and sometimes T3xx Mophun games work on the
T610 too (BUT: small screen, speed is too high...)
How to transfer Games to your phone
USB Cable
Download the progam SendFile. Transfer all the games with this program.
(it requiers a good config. system - means COM port is activated etc.)
Bluetooth
Just copy it straight over to the public folder by drag and drop - or right
click and use the send to option.
WAP
Its possible to upload files to once own wap site: Try www.euploader.com or www.coolservice.dk. Click the link and select "save file".
Infra Red Dongle
Make sure your phone is connected with the PC. (remember to enable the IR option on your phone). Then, like Bluetooth, right click and use the send to option
Transfering the Games...
Mophun Games: Then select all mpn files and transfer them to your phone!
e.g.: you have 1_2 game.mpn and 2_2 game.mpn send both or if it's 3 then 3 and
so on. It only works when all files are on the phone! Then it automatically
joins these files and you can play the game!
Java Games: you only need to transfer the .jar file.
For Nokia you need the jad file aswell
