(Q) Motorola Defy + the new unreal engine! - Defy General

the new unreal engine for android has been released, but the defy isnt on the compatibility list for dungeon defenders, even though it looks like it will play it due to its spec!
has anyone tried this game?
would i need to root my phone and overclock?
and if i rooted, would i still get the official 2.1 update thats coming this year?
Thanks

i have nexus s and it only runs ok on that. i wouldn't get hung up if it doesn't run great.

Work perfectly on our Defy!!!

thanks guys
very glad about getting this phone
festival proof + Good at gameloft + unreal games?

The problem is that Dungeon Defenders requires Froyo (2.2). The Defy currently ships with 2.1.
When we upgrade (the first 2.2 Defy ROM's are just starting to float around now, but aren't really ready for mass usage) to 2.2, we'll be fine for everything.

"Requires" as in "requires 2.2 for acceptable performance"?
Because the game sure does work on 2.1 since some update.
Will try OC and jit my defy soon, because i'm not happy with the performance of DD on my defy.

^ Yeah, no difference between 2.1/2.2. Performance is defined by the powerVR SGX530, any overclock/JIT will have little impact.
The Droid X is listed as a mid range device, that has the same GPU/resolution so it'll be no different. Just be grateful we have usable performance (unlike the 1st gen snapdragon )

I guess i will delete it then... i'm getting a headache from the relatively low fps.

No, just "Requires" as in, Market doesn't show it because the game specs say you should have 2.2.

It shows up in my market.
After some more testing it's somewhat playable i guess. At least no massive fps-loss with enemies on screen...first level that is Still eager to improve the performance. Update gooooo!

I'm happy to report that a new version of dungeon defenders is out (version 2.01) and it runs and looks very good on the Defy. They've even added a slider for graphics and it can now be played online over 3G/4G. I believe it even includes cross platform play with iOS devices.

[Q]FPSEce (Play Station One) for WVGA on WM 6.5.3

Hello everybody!!!
I think many HD users looked for good games for their devices. There are some really nice applications like Resco Bubbles, Experiment 13 etc. Also We can run Nintendo, Sega and other old games on HTC HD(with sortware multitouch support).
However, for my device I want at least psx games...(I am final fantasy and takken fan) I found emulators such as PocketISO and FPSEce, which allowed you run games from PS1. BUT I cant install it properly(I read many articles about it before start a new thread, but still cant find solution). Furthermore, I read, that FPSEce is not support WVGA(((
On Youtube I found many videos about FPSEce 0.10 working on Samsung Omnia and running psx games with full speed. I don't think that HTC HD is less powefull in turms of CPU and RAM than Omnia(maybe I am wrong).
So, can anybody explain me how to install it and (if possible) how to make it multitouch (like Morphgear with some skins and fix)?
I am using WM 6.5.3 by T2M(28004)
Thx in advance.
I try to run fpsece many times, but always whit poor result. The site appear old and no update. However, This progr starting directly from the executable file and work in the hd wvga, but can't start games for me
the point is simple really, the resolution aint supported. omnia has a far less screen res, thus delivering better application experience/smoothness. moreover, it seems fpsece has been discontinued or at least not updated in the last, well, year, so i fear your request is d00med from the start.

Not really. Project is not dead!!! Check video on YouTube, it is amazing!!! Driver 2 with "touch" control and full speed. G-sensor is working, nice on-screen buttons, sylus mode etc. Now it is even better than real PS1!!!
By the way, I had chat with moderator from FPSE forum, and he said, that new version will probably released before Xmas! I hope it will fully compatible with our device.

I've been waiting for FPSCE all year now, and every week we've been told "It's a few weeks away". I've purposely put it out of my mind for weeks now as I can't be bothered with the continual delays (although it does seem a lot of progress has been made recently and it looks a fantastic app).
I had 0.96 running on my HD no problems, except the FPS (frames per second) was about 17 for even simple games like Ridge Racer = unplayable. However vers 1.0 promises to work a lot quicker.
There is also a thread on their forum about the Touch HD, and I think it will work and be playable if/when released. They are also working on multitouch-faking controllers, otherwise bluetooth controlllers work well.
So I'm a little ambivalent over the project, mainly because I got sick of waiting for it, but I'm ready to eat my hat if/when it is released (probably in 2011 )

Well, I hope you are wrong about release date...
About FPS: I have tried Final Fantasy 8 and during first video it worked with 25-35 frames per second. However, I can't start the game - I can see FF boot screen, but I can't move to the main menu. I pressed all buttons("x", "start" etc.) with no result, only "select" buttons works fine. What I did wrong? I have tried other games with the same result.

Exactly why I wanted to see the videos myself... You can't compare the TG01 with the HD! The HD doesn't even have half the Toshiba's speed!
(Even when running a SnapDragon processor at the same frequency as the HD's processor, the former is faster than the latter...)

I know that TG01 in terms of speed and performance much better than our device.
I just posted this links as an example of what new version can do....
About speed:
This is DELL X50v
On this device FPSEce runs many games with 30-40 frames per second.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1i4JNUaEOdE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBSgNJlq38Q&feature=related
I don't think that X50v(processor 624 MHz Intel PXA 270, 64 RAM, VGA) is more powerfull than HD(processor 528 MHz Qualcomm MSM7201A, 288 MB RAM, WVGA)
BTW, on this video it seems to be an old version of FPSEce, however authors said that new version will run games much faster and smoother.....

Hi maxcy,
I just installed Max Manila Ultimate 2.6 Beta and can confirm that it works perfectly with latest NRG ROMs. Once again you did an awesome job. I finally have my 16 shortcuts and bg4all back + a working action softkey. Thank you so much.
ps1 for wvga
hi guys i think fpsece looks really good im tired of the low quality mobile games they keep bringing out and this looks like it will be decent. just need to find out how to get all my favourite ps1 games on my storage card. i read on the oficial forum that the developer is thinking about charging £5 for the emulator when its available on wvga devices. well im sure he/ shes done alot of work and i for one think thats fair. i think it will be free if you dont want to save your game or something like that. just cant wait.
Hey GUYS!
FPSEce is released!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi guys
I recently got hold of a Samsung i9000 Galaxy S, and i have to say im rather dissapointed.
The lag issue, which none of the lag fixes really actually stop, is so annoying, GPS not working as im one of the unfortunate people who have this issue is another annoyance
The screen is fantastic however, and the music player is aweseome with its equilizer.
However i use my phone for numerous things, media is one thing, GPS also as i dont see the need to buy a seperate sat nav when my phone "should have it",
Now i am going to wait until the official Froyo release from samsung before making any decision.
Right stop my moaning and here are my questions
i have been offered in exchange a sim Free Desire, plus a 16gb Class 6 sdcard, all boxed.
The one thing that worries me about going down the Desire route is how long is this handset gonna last.
Looking at benchmarks the i9000 creams the desire (with lag fix) in pretty much everything, i know this is down to the pretty poor Adreno 200 GPU on snapdragon as linpack shows the snapdragon FPU is better, Quadrant over 2200 currently on my SGS
in gaming terms for the future how long is this gonna last? can i expect games that are released in 6 months from now to run flawlessly? i know its hard for people to see into the future! but NEed for speed seems to run pretty much identically to my SGS, so im wondering if its all down to optimization on both chipsets
also gingerbread? a definate yes? or have HTC still not announced if Desire will be getting it
Samsung wont give any answers on this whatsoever
Also what would you guys do?
The samsung guys say "stay with it" but i want opinions from both camps
Cheers
You are on the same point I was a few weeks ago, well I wasn't offered in exchange by someone but the store owner offered to change it for me. Honestly, I'd say go for it. Samsung's software is crap, Desire has a lot better development community. Not to mention you get HTC Sense. Now one warning, Desire doesn't got true multi-touch, it got pinch support but thats about as far as the multi-touch goes. I tired playing Real Football 2010 with a Desire and it was a crap experience. People have reported Quadrant benchmarks of almost 1800 via OCed kernel and custom ROMs, if you really want to get down to that point but honestly it doesn't make a difference.
And HTC still hasn't announced if Desire is getting Gingerbread but there is a good chance the ROM community will be able to get it running. Plus Samsung still hasn't released Froyo, so I don't see a bright future of Gingerbread coming from them.
Now, GPS on Desire is damn good. It works as good as my 2 year old satnav if not better(It usually gets the fix better, I gave my satnav away ).
Honestly the handset has a good life-time to last, HTC Hero is still doing pretty good so Desire should do good as well was another year or more. Even if HTC may drop the support we have people here giving new life to the device.
My opinion: go for it! Desire is a great phone / smartphone.
The more I use it, the better it is.
Make sure you do a hard reset when you get it...
im seriously 50/50 on this, and now my time frame has been shortened, my mate wants to know by tomorrow otherwise he is ebaying it (mates eh!?)
Benchmarks are not the be all and end all, its bragging rights i suppose.
one thing that is seriously tipping me back to HTC is the support and community development, Samsungs own support is utterly awful, Kies is the worst piece of software i have ever ever used, and no OTA?! what the hell is that about.
As for HTC back in the day when i had my hero, ok there was delays but at least they kept people in the loop, one of my biggest annoyences is not being advised anything from samsung other than "we are working on it"
i dont hold out anyfaith that the filesystem will be sorted out with froyo, i mean it says alot when the XDA guys can fix it, but Samsung dont seem to even ackowledge the fact the software is naff!
i thought the desire had true multi touch? Does this mean playing psx4droid is a poor experiance?
No, it doesn't got true multi-touch. If the x1 intersects with y2 or x2 with y1 it goes haywire. It doesn't have gorilla glass either. But the community of HTC Desire is far better than Galaxy S from my experience, we don't have to use Kies or similar crap either(It was a PITA to get Kies to even recognize my phone, took me well over 4 hours and a lot of headaches), we got OTA! .

Glad you share my view on Kies, i honestly have never had such issues flashing a firmware, at least with Odin it did what it says on the tin
ok well im pushing more towards the desire, i just HOPE that its as much as an enjoyable process playing PSX games on psx4droid as it is on the Galaxy S, i do alot of travelling and i spend most of that time on trains playing FF7
If you want to do gaming stick with the galaxy s the desire isn't very good for that. Maybe 2.2 for the galaxy s will resolve your issues. I love the desire its a great phone but its horrible for gaming.

it all depends how much more powerfull the new version of adreno is, obviously developers are still going to develop games for the arm cpu and adreno inparticular, imo i think our gpu will be able to play the games developed for newer versions of adreno but maybe not flawlessly .............. as far as gingerbread goes, the desire will never get it officially as htc are more intrested in supporting what will be then there current generation of devices, but as the desire and n1 are almost identical, and the n1 being googles official developer device, they are sure to get gingerbread, so we maybe we will be the first device to get working custom roms

I never thought of it like that actually regarding future android updates, basically the N1 is the same hardware as the desire, just lacking a little bit of Ram i believe, so shouldnt be too difficult to port over a rom
you sir have just tipped the scales again!
If you care about gaming stick with SGS..devs are even stopping games for desire ( see n.o.v.a) due to the multitouch bug and the the GPU isn't even remotely close to sgs's..Desire's 720p is a big pile of disappointment as well,no matter what rom you try..
other than that it is a fantastic phone...also unique feel as you hold it in your palm..its ergonomy is amazing, even ip4 doesn't sit as well in the hand as desire does..
Your right about the iPhone 4 it is a pain to hold now lol (not about the signal "issue") the edges are Sharp.

I have a Desire & my friend has a Galaxy S.
I would say the Samsung has a better screen. However:
The Desire is a better over all device, software wise and build quality wise. Oh and it has more ram.
However, if gaming is a serious thing for you, I suggest you stay with the Samsung because they really do have the most powerful mobile GPU.

In respects to gaming its not gaming as such, i mean angry birds beta from the market, any gpu should play that, im more bothered about PSX emulation at this point, my sgs is superb with psx4droid, where as the videos i have seen on youtube dont say the same story with desire, however these are based on the early versions of the app,

Don't worry about that...psx4droid does not yet support hardware acceleration so all graphics are rendered from the CPU , not the GPU...so they should play it equaly well..well runs fine on my desire..and also i had an hd2 before and used fpsece which supported(and still does) hw acceleration..and run great on hd2 (has snapdragon chip, same as htc desire)..could get 40+fps on tekken 3...which is brillian (does not even run in psx4droid)..

[Q] The Galaxy Nexus's GPU is not that bad

People were saying the GPU in the GN was just terrible but its not that bad and should last me the year or two i will have it. However if i get bored ill overclock and throw chainfire 3d on it till what ever the latest and greatest is out.
Here are the Benchmarks
Games played are HD
Riptide
9mm
Shadow Gun
Samurai II Vengeance
Asphalt 6 Adrenaline
Need for speed shift
n64oid test and more games
Note: i got mine imported(its actually pre released) running on T-Mobile dumped the forgotten Mytouch 3g fender 1.2 version for it. Coming from that and the g1 this is the snappiest device i have ever owned running android. I didn't care all about GPU because ill be doing most of my mobile gaming on the PSV anyways.
It's a pain that new games like Riptide (or any Gameloft title) don't work, ...but it plays N64 and PS1 games perfectly.
It'll be interesting to see SG2 benchmarks when the official ICS update is out.

The Galaxy Nexus has to run most apps in compatibility mode because they do not support ICS yet but, it has given me a great experience so far. Somethings telling me the sgs2 is going to slow down a bit when it gets the upgrade not because of hardware because of the new touchwiz coming with it.
We will have to see!

Is there anyone having the same problem as me? The new gameloft games like spiderman, batman, asphalt are slow to 7 htc one x, I tried with the new kernel faux promises an improvement in the games but still slows down. And the other games are normal, these three are happening ONLY this.

no it does not, its just gameloft don't support tegra 3 yet, but after nexus 7 was released gameloft announced that its going optimize games for tegra 3. we just need to wait. so my advice to you don't buy any Gameloft games its extremely laggy and anyone who says it isn't he is stupid. Even with custom kernels and Game boost app its still sucks, i have tried them.

Ah I get it now thanks for clearing it.
Although I would have thought a tegra device would be supported more quickly.
Yeah... you'd assume that a company like GL would optimize for the most powerful hardware on the market... apparently not!
Regardless, I find Batman to be ok generally, bit laggy after prolonged sessions, havent touched Spider-Man as I've only heard bad things, messed about with Asphalt 7 and so far it's just the FPS that dips and gets laggy so I'm not too fussed about that, don't play it much.
The only game that support Tegra is batman, the only game with no polygon clipping issues
Nova3 is still not officially released and all the other games are running like a joke
Batman is ok on stock but with faux and gaming boost its supers smooth while spiderman a mess no matter what you do
the situation is the same on the Nexus 7
finally One X firmware 1.29 is known to have a serious issues with games' CPU scaling, which will be solved mid august when HTC releases the 2.x update
But yea Gameloft....is so far anti tegra

It's a shame really... I personally think Spider-Man was a rush job, no doubt about it, Batman had the bigger budget as the only official game for the movie so they made damn sure it was T3 optimised, still has hiccups but updates can rectify that.
Nova3 is a joke, unless you want to r00t, flash and customize stay well away!
Bring on 2.X I say! and GameLoft... Sort your Sh*t out!

very easy to judge this whole thing with batman
batman has all the effects runs better than iDevices and old SGS2, only SGS3 beats it and NO POLYGON CLIPPING ISSUES, the difference between v1.05 and 1.06 was massive
how do you expect a game to run well when you actually see visible polygon clipping bugs

Yeah, When I installed 1.06 I was impressed with how much 'crisper' everything looked.
I have no problem with nova 3 using arhd 8.1.0 with 3 dot menu removed but my phone gets really hot though and I emailed them about mc3 cuz I love that its just like cod on a mobile and they sent me a tegra 3 version and runs sweet but looks about the same on my old phone

Thanks for the replies, the way is to wait, tried to play Spiderman with faux kernel, it was almost the same thing, only slightly improved, is still quite slow. So we wait.

spiderman is a mess
Asphalt 7 and Spiderman runs awesome with Faux and Gaming boost, 60fps

Will we see OpenGL ES 3.2?

Ok, so I just ordered a Mi Max 128GB/4GB for Black Friday (from geekbuying) and was wondering if this device can actually support OpenGL ES 3.2, and I am asking if it can support it hardware-wise cause I know it won't work on android <7.0, so anyone know?
Adreno 5xx series GPU's have full support for EGL 3.2 with Android extension along with Vulkan support. So it's expected that they will be supported in Android 7~7.1.
Edit: & Android 7.0.1 is definitely coming (probably early next year in stable update):

Thank you, that's what I was expecting as well but even on Qualcomm's site the specs of the 510 are not clearly stated, also good to know we will in fact get 7.0.1 (although I plan to stay away from MIUI).
This should mean we might even be able to get at least somewhat decent Wii&GC emulation on this device in the future which is pretty exciting for me since there are still a lot of games I bought and never got around to finishing or even playing.

Don't have to high hopes that Dolphine emulator will fly on Adreno 510, the driver's especially sheder compiler are far cry from anything good also hardware capabilities (EGLS 3.2, Testilation engine & Vulkan compatibility) don't count much without proper & good driver's support. On the current Android gaming scene A510 is wonderful but it won't shy with Dolphine (nothing will, best behaviour you will have with New Rogue series [Imagination Technology] but their is no any newer SoC for Android with it we will see how will MTK X30 behave 2Q next year).
Edit: By the way this whose a best deal for it when I searched wanting to buy a full prime one in the mean time I decided not to go with it & instead both a 3/32GB S650 version in land where I live. But search again me by you can find a better deal.

I did not say it would fly but it would have at least somewhat decent performance which for me means playable, especially since most of the games I want to play are for GC not Wii and are RPG games (except perhaps the Sonic Adventure games but I can play the DC version of those if the performance is too bad), the only few Wii games I would like to play would anyway not be practical (if possible at all) because they use the huge mess that the Wiimote is (mainly Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World).
Plus I have seen Snapdragon 808 with the 7.0 dev preview (OpenGL ES 3.2 supported) running Dolphin quite well and even with lower performance that would be enough for me.
Either way I would probably end up starting the games and not finishing them for a long time as I keep doing, start them while traveling and then too busy with College and stuff to finish them and then start an other game (like I did with 7th Dragon 3 on my 3DS, Tales of Eternia for PSP and countless others) but it would still be nice to know I at least have the possibility of playing those games on the go.
Well A518 can all A418 on S808 can & probably a little more in time when drivers support all capabilities along with games/emus. Then that is settled its enough for you & it is a pleasurable experience to play on such a large display.
Best regards.
