another one i tried it seemed to load a map but it was to big like the vga version seeing half the menu and such even though it should be the QVGA version

if anyone wants to help who has it working please pm

thanks

Wait - let me get this straight. There's a version of Warcraft 2 for the PPC? Where can I get it?

Ya it runs fine. I've played it for a year or so but I cannot save any games because we don't have a hardware keyboard. On my old Treo 700wx I could save but not now.

Does anyone know any workarounds for that?

Yes you can.
If you follow the link posted by hueman84, n0p's page tells you how...
Under the FAQ -
"Q: How to save?
A: 1) Create in folder save some empty files - save1.sav, save2.sav, etc. Use them then saving/loading."

I just haven't figured out how to remap the hardware buttons to have a 'right-click', i think that's the only thing missing...
