Running Primo on Windows o/s

Thu Jan 26, 2012 12:38 pm

I fancy having a go at comprisng a theme or a skin. Thing is primo is on my dashboard mounted Wince device.

Is there a WinCe emulator or a version of primo that runs on a PC so you can try out settings to see how they look rather than having to pop off to the car every 5 minutes?

Yes, there is. Download from this thread:

Yes, there are emulators for a PC. The best is probably what FBF put together:

BUT: So far, to my knowledge, Primo 2 is untested in an emulator. AND, skins are often ignored in an emulator

Now you tell me LOL

I've downloaded the emulator. Inital test and primo 2.0 doesn't work. I'll play around. Anyone got it working?

You need a lot of CPU power for these emulators, also no emulator is 100% accurate and iGO does tend to take over the system a bit, which probably isn't compatible with emulation.
