Oops. Apparently I neglected to add this and it's gone unnoticed until
now.

For it to work, you must +install a modified Timidity patchset in the +\fname{/.rockbox/timidity/} directory on your device. There should be +a \fname{/.rockbox/timidity/timidity.cfg} file located in this +directory, along with the instrument files. You must edit the +\fname{.cfg} file so that all the path names are absolute (i.e. in the +form \fname{/.rockbox/timidity/instruments/*.cfg}). + +\subsubsection{Video} +Rotation of the video output is possible by choosing the correct video +option in the in-game menu. If your device's display is normally +320x240, for example, choosing the 240x320 option will rotate the +screen 90 degrees, and the keymap will be updated as well. + +\subsubsection{Caveats} +Sound effects, enabled by default, could have a detrimental effect on +playability on some devices. If you notice excessive lag, try +disabling sound. + +The default button mapping may not be optimal for gameplay. Set a +different mapping in the ``Keyboard'' section of the game setup. Note +that not all keys are mappable on all devices. + +Some devices will low memory or large GRP files will prevent the game +from completely caching the GRP file in RAM, which could lead to disk +reads during gameplay. This might cause the game to lag slightly when +it happens, which is normal. The game should resume in a second or so. |
