This is the profile I use:
There isn't much to document - it's basically drive letter mapping to paths. Other keys are similar to the Windows registry format. If you manage to run StarCraft, look at the file after you exit the game to see what I mean.
There are a lot of missing APIs, hence the crashes. But StarCraft at this stage should work rather well.

If it's that simple, then what are you changing for panning around the map? (I guess that's the problem from a release)

Technically yes, because there's no code to prevent it However I'm not sure you'd enjoy the game-play much - you can try though. And there are still bugs (for example, rare but occasionally missing sprites).

There are a lot of missing APIs, hence the crashes. But StarCraft at this stage should work rather well. Are those "only" DirectX (7,8,9,10.1,11) specific APIs you need to implement? But im guessing thats not so easy. So technically with a full implementation of those APIs it should probably run any generic directx game?

Super! Works like charm on my Samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0. Can't find my disk, so downloaded one of repacks(eng+rus). Haven't tried russian, but english one works perfectly! Passed up to 4 level terran campaign - everything is ok. Small problems are with controls, I can't find way to manage squads(I mean assign numbers to troops and use them to choose needed)... Second one - can you add support for the usb mouse right click? Then everything will be pc-like Trird suggest: panning with two-three figers. It will be more comfortable, then d-pad(but don't remove it, it is good too) PS: Your widget-idea of controls is brilliant, this is what many emulators need PPS: What the third game you're going to work on? Can you just take look at Allods 2 game and say if it is big problem or not? If so - I can send you lite version of it(~60mb). Attempt to run it through winulator now gives immediate crash UPD: Oops, when I was writing this comment, the game crashed. It happens right after movie after 3rd level terran. I think that it was right after briefing(I was not looking at the screen)... Send report through program. UPD2: Waited for briefing again. Now everything fine... Passed 6-th level of terran campaign - no problems noticed

I can play StarCraft!!!!! Tried it with external keyboard and mouse, and it worked pretty good (graphics look better on my tablet than on the computer ) I found some bugs though: *Sound is sometimes a bit off ( sounds coming later than they should) but this could be due to my 1.2 GHz single core processor *Long sound files only get played for the first few seconds ( briefings and background music cut off after some seconds) *Control groups (control+number and then number) don't work, nor with keyboard nor with widget, which makes commanding a bit tiresome *Shift+click for selecting additional units doesn't work *The in-game mouse cursor trails behind the android one, and if I click on a building it gets selected when the in-game cursor has caught up) *Panning with the mouse on the edge of the screen is a bit erratic at times Furthermore I have a feature request: the option to save and load widget layouts, since I need different ones if I have keyboard and mouse attached then if I play touch-only. None of this is meant as criticism or something like that, when it was starting I was like "STARCRAFT ON MY TABLET!!!! YEEESSSSSS!!!!!!!!" if you get what I mean. Awesome.

hate to say it i just got a keyboard for my nexus 7 / note 2 just to try out some emulators. Starcraft with keyboard / mouse works 100% perfectly (duh). music is buggy on the victory / losing screen and loading / saving. other than that i gotta say its perfect. BTW on note 2 you have to put files on the internal sd unless you have the apps2sd mod.

xonone, you have working right mouse button with external mouse? I'm not. Didn't notice any problems with music too(but problem with switching of track indeed is). Why? In Winulator you can write direct path to game, e.g. "/mnt/extSdCard/StarCraft" for mine tab

jmaster, cockie, xonone, Thanks for your feedback!
I haven't seen the 'long sound files' problem you mention on my devices (even the slow ones), but the problem with shift and control keys should be easy to fix, I'll check that.
Right click with external mouse should work too (tested it with Caesar III awhile back), but depending on Android version (4 <= ).
From what I can tell with various devices, the newer ones should behave better with regard to screen update latency and such.
Thanks again
