Winulator-beta for Android
Winulator is an app that provides a platform for running Windows 95/98 programs and games. Currently in development, a very limited list of games are supported.
See www.winulator.com for more details.
This app worked on Android 4.4, but now that all my devices are on Android 6, it doesn't work anymore. Does anyone know what filesystem path will work to allow games to be played?
It used to work on my Galaxy s3 on JB 4.3. On my s5 on 4.4 it doesn't seem to work. A message pops up saying winulator has crashed after I click on StarCraft.
First game I tried with this was Starcraft. Downloaded the profile from the internet, went to run it, and it insta-crashed. Looked for a different profile and downloaded it, launched it, insta-crash. I have a N64 emulator on this phone that was completely free, no watermark, and it actually works, if your phone or tablet isn't brand new, chances are this app will disappoint, glad I diddnt shell out $8.
It was working and it was great, but then the lollipop update came along and destroyed everything near and dear to me. Please get this app working with lollipop, even though you pretty much halted support for it. The actual app is great but with no support I am wishing for the release v of the source code.
I'm on nexus 7 2013 and my StarCraft runs great for a bit but then freezes is this normal? Cuz on YouTube I've seen people play through scenarios no problem... Any help would be great :)
My files are good, I followed every step to download the proper form of starcraft but Winulator crashes everytime as soon as I try to play anything. Very dissapointed in this app. I've sent multiple reports on the problem and its yet to be fixed.
Awesome idea, but not much documentation or help is available from the developer's website. I cannot figure out how to convert files for use with the program. I would really like to play Arcanum and Fallout on my device... Samsung S3 (CM 12.1)
Great concept, just unhappy with the lack of documentation, guides, advice, etc. Winulator will not detect any programs despite following what instructions I could find besides the initial "scan sdcard," which results in nothing. Will happily give more stars if I could even guess how to get things moving forward.
But you should make starcraft easier to control and play. How can I comtact you by email? Im a programmer and I got some idea that really easy to code but greatly improve the difficulty by touch-playing
Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 and 2, maybe including the expansion packs. I might come up with more games later, but I feel those in particular would be perfect tablet/phone games.
I dont know how to work it, but i see a lot of people saying its great. So now until i get it to work i guess ill put 4/5
I have been able to make it find Starcraft on my Pixel C. However, it never launches. I click on Starcraft, and it simply stays at a black screen. I would have gladly paid for Winulator if Starcraft worked (Brood War, bought from Blizzard's website).
I have done ALL tutorial for starcraft and NOTHING. I open the apk, launch the starcraft brood war and my screen remains black...someone explain pls
After a little bit of issues with installing Starcraft, I was wrangling SCVs and Marines all around the tutorial section. Definitely an incredible project, and will definitely be putting my money towards this project when I can.
StarCraft broodwar runs flawless, even with 20 Carriers attacking a Terran base, and that says something because my windows 8 laptop lags with that many units attacking on screen.
It keeps crashing everything I try to run ceasar 3. I love this game please help
It always says "Winulator crashed....." and I am asking you kindly that what is this?
When I try to run the game (bought from GOG) it immediately tells me that Winulator has crashed and generates a crash report; can't play.
Wonderful emulation, just missing one obvious extreme important feature, mouse support, how could you leave out mouse support for mouse games? Right click not working, need remap or configuration for controls,
I have put. Starcraft, diablo 2, Pharaoh, minecraft, ark survival evolved and civilisation 5 on my sd card and this app still will not find any of them. I've tried folders I've tried no folders I've tried resetting my phone, uninstalling and re-installing winulator... And still not working... I am not very impressed with this app, when I looked at it everybody was saying it works great. Make it work or I will rip it from google play and fix it myself.
I got the game and the program finds the game but when I run that, all I get is a black screen; it won't even crash. Iwould like to get some help... :(
One unfortunate thing is that is freezes when I play as terrans. zerg and protoss its fun to play and no probs really
Play all the starcraft maps I made as a kid tyvm dev the starcraft you need is tpb no install torrent and it's not pirating I bought starcraft twice and still have the 1.0 cd
Did all the steps correctly and Winulator keeps crashing whenever i try to run the game.
Was able to detect Caesar 3 and launch it but it won't get past the start up screens. I will not pay to purchase this app until it is fixed obviously. Running Android 5.1.1 on Samsung Tab S2. Sent in error report and waiting to see how it is handled
The app works. And the games it works with does it well! Its just the list of games thats compatible. Its so tiny. And i know what devoloping a program is like. As i have before. But other than that....
Just won't run the game. Followed the limited support online and it detects the working copy I transferred from PC, just won't run it without crashing.
You must load the application within your phone's memory and not the sd card. I play for hours on my Galaxy Note 3.
A "very limited" number of games supported.. oh you mean ONE officially (caesar iii) and one beta (starcraft) ? Why dont you just put that in the description. This is all that's listed on the supported games list on your website.
Creating a search all function is always a bad idea. This is Android not iPhone. Android users expect full control, including the ability to directly go to a path via folder select path. Please fix and treat us Android users with respect.
I have the winulator profile, as required. StarCraft is version 1.16.1, as required. I have the BroodWar.mpq file, as required. I have followed all instructions to the letter and spent hours looking for advice online. My phone is a Galaxy S5. The app still says "0 programs found" when I scan my SD card. Please help. I will provide a 5-star rating once the issue is resolved.
Caution: this app does not work on Lollipop (Goggle should remove it) and the developer is MIA. Look elsewhere.....
DOESUNT WORK ON MY PHONE OR TABLET KEEPS CRASHING WORST WORST PROGRAM
I have done every possible thing and yet this app still will not find starcraft. I've gotten advice from forums I've watched tutorials and still nothing. Wanted it to work so very much. Would have paid for it.
Would this work with "Goosebumps - Return To Horrorland" ? It was a windows 95 game. It requires a "insert disc 2" halfway through though. Really interested, hope you let me know :)
Hey man please add cossacks art of war support and decent browser because nerdy prompt command to find a game on my flash card sucks. So I'm looking forward to buy it
It worked very great on starcraft but it crashed a few times when I quit playing a campaign mission or a custom game, sometimes the music cuts off during gameplay. I liked this app very much, I will rate it 5 stars if you make diablo 1 playable and add it in the game list. :) so keep up the great work!
I'm hoping to find command and conquer red alert games of so I'm psyched and buying the full version later if things go well
The only problem I have while playing starcraft is it freezes after 10 to 15 minutes. If you could fix that I give this app 5 stars

The dev has a blog post whining about how he isn't working on this app anymore and has a fancy new job at a startup (aka he took his ball and went home). Never got a single game to run. Oh well...
