How to add new screen resolutions to the emulator?

[lenclud]

I was trying to do add support for extra screen resolutions on S60 3rd FP1 emulator.

I edited epoc.ini to add a reference to my new resolutions epoc_resolution.ini files but the new resolutions would not work properly and where still showing QVGA UI only white padding for the extra pixels. Then I tried to fix that by playing with wsini.ini but failed as well.

Is there a guide somewhere on how to add extra custom resolution to your emulator?

(I know about the plug-ins for E series but I need another custom resolution)

epoc*.ini would help you configure how the emulator looks (fascia, screen area, keys) and behaves (logging, drives emulation and screen mode).

You must configure the screen modes in wsini.ini and then link to the screen mode from the epoc*.ini

If you download the E-series plug-in and compare the configuration files with the ones in the SDK you will have your answers. Or at least some of them.

I think what I'm missing is how to link between wsini.ini screen modes and epoc*.ini. I thought it would work with ordinal position but looks like it isn't.

I guess I'll have to take a closer look at the E series plug-in.

Look at the OnActivation statement.

Alright I think I got it now!

You define OnActivate to send a key to the windows server then you use S60_HWSTATE_KEYCODEx from wsini.ini to catch that key and enable a different screen size. I'll give it a try on monday.

Great help thanks a bunch.

I'm still struggling to get that working and after installing the E Series plug-in for my FP1 SDK I realized the wsini.ini file did not change.

So I did a search for other wsini.ini file and the one which is used by the emulator is not the one from \Epoc32\Data but rather the one in \Epoc32\release\winscw\udeb\z\system\data thus my confusion a lot of useless try.

Hopefully with that knowledge I should be able to get it working now

No luck there I can't get it to work.
Even if I simply try to change width and height of the 800x352 configuration in both epoc_800x352.ini and wsini.ini all I get is that the 800x352 configuration displays a screen the size of the previous configuration.

Such a waste of time I could use some help...
