auwilliams Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Hi, I have a number of devices in my home, and I'm currently trying to get PokeMMO to run on a Windows tablet. This computer is a touchscreen device. I assumed the Windows version of the game supported the Android touch layout (crazy, right?) and after some Googling that doesn't seem to be the case. So I upgraded to Windows 11, set up Windows Subsystem for Android, and got PokeMMO running on Windows 11 through the Android application. Now the game kicks me out randomly with the attached "Sorry, this application cannot run on this platform" error. I'm able to play for minutes to an hour at a time with otherwise acceptable performance. Are the devs going to update the Windows client to enable touch support so you aren't alienating these devices? Or are the devs going to fix this error so we can use the client built for touch screens? Currently there's no support that I'm aware of which is a massive oversight — especially for a game this old and accepting money / donations. Thanks! Link to comment
BrokenBulb Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Hello! PokeMMO does not allow the use of virtual machines (Windows Subsystem for Android, ShadowPC, Emulators, etc.) as well as software that interacts with or modifies the game. You must run the game on a real PC/device. If you want to have the Android UI on the PC version, this thread will help: https://forums.pokemmo.eu/index.php?/topic/131277-gui-android4pc/ In addition, we actually do have a support platform which you can find here and access with your in-game credentials: https://support.pokemmo.eu Have a nice day!

Thank you for the reply. That theme doesn't appear to support touch-based controls (such as the android directional pad overlay and the A / B buttons). Is there a way to enable them? I posted this to the forum so people with this error code can find more information online but I can use the support platform instead if that's the appropriate channel for feedback and feature requests.

auwilliams Posted December 19, 2021 Author Share Posted December 19, 2021 Bumping this thread. I found another user requesting this functionality 3 years ago! It doesn't look like PokeMMO supports tablets or has any intention of updating the client for touch support. ? I guess if you use these devices you're SOL unless this is moved onto the teams roadmap.

TheNextEnd Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Wanted to add on to this since this is the only real search result on Google. I have been playing on my android phone for a long time but suddenly I'm getting this same error. Anyone know why? Link to comment
