Dead Space Works Again!! (CM7 Official version)

I have been trying to get dead space to work since i upgraded to gingerbread...it only worked on froyo for powervr (at least for me lol) because it always froze the phone or crashed...i tried the new version and it runs perfectly on my epic with cm7...thanks CM7 team..
p.s. off topic, there is a street fighter IV game for android floating around the internet and I think it awesome..

so how is it CM7 gets Dead Space and GTA3 to run? Can these games run on other ROMs?

I' m not sure, deadspace always forced closed on me on the normal gingerbread and froze on cm7 but ea recently updated the deadspace game and rockstar updated the gta3 game for powervr phones (samsung and some motorolla phones), try the new versions of the apps and see if works for you..what rom are you on?
p.s. I have been running cm7 since november so I am not sure about other roms

iv been switching back and forth between Marcusants and CM7, mainly because I want to see how the CM7 holds up. Found out Marcus's ROM has way superior battery life and im sticking with that. I read somewhere that if you get it to play on CM7 then back it up you can restore it to any other ROM. Might try that out.
Edit: I just successfully installed GTA3 on Marcusants ROM. Just had to wait while the content was downloaded, make sure you let it do its thing when its downloading at 100%, DO NOT CANCEL and it should install fine

Right. And on cm7 I don't have to OC cpu or gpu or run any plugins or reduce quality. GTA III, Dead Space, ShadowGun, MC3, everything runs super smooth. God I love cm7.

The version I have is HD and meant for tablets so I can only see part of the 720p image lol.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

My experience has been that Shadowgun and Dead Space both drop frames all over the place regardless of what rom I run. With a lot if onscreen action they both become slideshows. I'm on CM7 and it is not any better. Maybe 15 fps is acceptable for a phone game though.

Running Marcusant v.1 bml - both those titles are perfectly smooth, given that I set the cpu governor to lock @ 1200mhz. DON'T USE PERFORMANCE GOVERNOR. It can drop and lock @ 800 or 400. Just keep it on ondemand ans set min and max the same. ;-)
also on earthbound's 3.3.0 250MHz/60Hz

[Q] Arc S can't play heavy 3D games. Why???

So...this may seem a noobish question...but i don't think it is so.
Today I made an experiment, a test between some devices to see how they played good 3D games. I chose for it:
1: Sony xperia arc s, with stock ICS rom and kernel.
2: Samsung galaxy s 2, with stock ICS rom and kernel.
3: Samsung old galaxy tab p1000 7inches (single core 1ghz cpu and 512mb Ram), with Aokp rom and kernel.
And I tried to run:
A: Temple run.
B: Babel rising 3d.
C: Castle master 3d.
And what I got???
Both Samsung devices could play every game of the 3 perfectly.
ARC S MANAGED TO PLAY ONLY TEMPLE RUN. The other two games started then freezed. And freezed the phone till I had to remove battery.
Try by yourself, installing and running castle master 3d from play(free game).
So...WTF?????? Is this a low Ram problem??? Why the hell the arc s, with a better hardware than the old galaxy tab, can't play quite heavy 3d games????

I always thought this was a low ram issue, back on gingerbread I could run GTA 3 perfectly, on ICS however it starts then freezes.

Using ICS on Arc/S is not good for gaming...
-Game can force close
-Crash
-Freeze (every 2mins)
-Rarely reboot the phone

ok, i saw it by myself, but why?? the system in arc s ics cannot free enough ram to play a game that runs smooth on other older devices?? can we do something more than just downgrading to gingerbread?? or the answer is that we have a crappy phone and we should take it as ****ty as it is?

Never. I'll never install the rom of a copycat. the worst rom in the forum. However, I tried each other rom and the problem persists. So it must be a sony base problem.

How is a copycat? -.-, and its not a sony base problem its ICS -.- if i played heavy 3d games on GB it will work fine!

Maybe it is because the system takes up more ram on the arc s than on the galaxy tab, so there is less available for the user. I think there is an app or something that can make your phone use some of the SD card as ram, That could help?

Yeah that's it! But never mind because....
I found a solution!
Now my 3d game I wanted to run was GTA 3. Whenever I tried, it would play for around 30 secs and then finish. I thought it was a ram issue, but I tried over clocking, now I never thought it would make a difference as because I'm on stock kernel it cannot go past the already reachable 1400, but I set the minimum from around 200 to around 1300 and the maximum to 1400, and now it can run GTA 3! Whenever I'm not playing I'll just change it back.

Yeah sorry :/ just tried it again, ran buttery smooth for 30s then closed.
I'm not sure I want to try the swap because I heard it can reduce SD card lifespan, and i can't find my other SD card.

Overclock your xperia to at least 1.5, seach for some GTA 3 tweaks using the seach, do a reboot before you start playing. It will work

Grand Theft Auto Vice City 1.0.1 s3 i747 at & t

friends of this great forum:
as you will have released version 1.0.1 of the game Grand Theft Auto Vice City and want to know if they installed this great game, had no problems, I ask this because I downloaded the 1.0.0 again and it was a mess, as did not enter the game on my s3 i747 and could not leave the game, because I had to go to task manager to close the application.
I ask please that you installed in your Samsung i747 S3 tell me if it works or not the game, because I'm intimidated to lose games not work on my S3 i747 from at & t.
thanks for reply and greetings.

lag
is any able to run this game lag free? walking around is very smooth, but driving makes it lag more. I wanna use higher settings,but that just brings lag. Am i the only one experiencing this problem?

No its lag. and on our phones that means its really noticeable.
changing to on demand seems to help

I do get lag while driving :/

Driving controls are very sluggish. Game can not perfectly run on extreme values of display settings. If only they can fix the delayed touch controls.

Horribly laggy when driving on CM10.1, unplayable in fact. Sad panda! It seems like it's working flawlessly even on the GS2

I have a weird glitch with my installation, I tried everything to fix it in the settings, tried clearing memory, tried killing and restricting apps from running in the background but nothing works to fix this. can somebody help me?
I've attached a couple pics to shed light on this crap...

yeah on touchwiz based roms it works just fine. on cm10xx and aokp roms, driving is obsolete and will not even show any graphics.

Everything works fine for me. No lag or anything. And I'm also not running touch wiz.

I get what you mean, but I think ist's a kernel issue in his case (480p kernels have always had problems with gta games on my phone), so he should try using a 720p kernel IMO
