PointyRemote release 0.000015a (07-02-06)

[Alucardd]

I tried it and the server froze and the DS wouldnt show the desktop or anything.

Hm, it seems a bit slower to update on the Ds now. before I'd get quick updates when i pressed to refresh a screen (within a second or two) now its coming up within 5-10 seconds, or it freezes. The PC side server is slow again, too. My computer is choppy when it runs, the last build was quick.

 

Looks like theres some work to do.

 

Nonetheless, keep it up, good to see you trying to fix it up.

[Pointless]

with a less packet loss it should work faster

here in my home it works better

gonna try some things

and yes, the server is slow again xD

[Pointless]

new version xD

It seems to work better, however, I still am having problem getting screen updates quickly. Mostly, the zoomed view. the fullscreen view updates when something changes on teh screen, like a window open or conversation reply, but I cant get the zoomed view to move to that quickly or at all really anymore.

 

Hmmm.. The server isnt bogging me down as much on the PC anymore, but still a bit sludgy. I'll continue to test it out.

 

update, I can't get any response as far as touch screen goes. when zoomed in, I cant click on anything, and when zoomed out, it doesnt seem to react to where I point to zoom in, which leads me to beleive somthing is up with the touchscreen stuff.

okay, so, I finally got a zoom update, but it was very slow (I'm talking, several minutes. the clicks I did also registered....minutes later)...so, theres a slow down problem with the response rate with clicking and zooming. but the zoomed out view updates very quickly for me.

[Pointless]

try this,

if you press X button, the update rate will increase, with the Y button, it will decrease

as the server.exe is so badly programed, if u use a high update, i'll freeze your pc, causing things not to respond,

try tapping a few times (fast taps, as this works while hold the buttons) on Y, so it will not freeze the server

woo, an update, I'll checkout in a lil bit, messin with skins for moonshell.99

To everyone: copy the link location to your URL and replace 13 with 14. The link he offered is screwed up.

 

Anyway, server.exe is crashing, and I have no idea why. Says something about kernl32.exe or something not agreeing with it.

 

EDIT: Nevermind, link fixed.

server crashes?

:/

are you sure that it's the only instance running? if u got another app binded to port 8888 pointyremote will crash :/

[parrot]

Couldn't you make it that you can set the port for PointyRemote?

[Pointless]

i can, but i'll do it on the good version xD

[digicide]

Well this release is waaay better. Colors are fixed, its fast enough to be usable-- I really prefer the stylus clicking to WinDS trigger clicking. There's a few changes Pointless could probably make in 5 minutes:

 

switch screen toggle trigger to left trigger so you can hold the ds with your left hand and hold stylus with your right

 

hold left on d-pad while clicking for right clicks

 

right on d-pad = 'enter' on keyboard, 'cause right now its really hard to double click icons

 

Great job pointless! You've pulled far ahead in the VNC wars. So I see Win2DS Sticky-- why no pointyRemote sticky?

[GrupstraNDS]

Just tried it out. much faster then the last release. Looks real nice, and refreshes smoothly. The server no longer eats my CPU, either.

 

The suggestions Digicide posted above are good ones, I would consider implementing some.

 

Keep up the good work.

[Pointless]

gamecop ofered me a forum, but i told him that i dont wanna a forum until tcp is working, and i can make a good version of pointyremote (btw, i'll change the name soom xD, it sucks xD)

 

and digicide, i'll build a release with those features
