will defy suppot tegra2 games?

i want to ask about galaxy on fire of including tegra 2 game.gof2 will out in april and can we play gof2 on defy?

No idea. Don't care at all

without looking it up, i would just say "no", because the defy hasn't got the tegra-processor

Hey George ,
Even if the GOF2 Tegra version wouldn't work on the DEFY, the regular or the hd version of the same game will eventually work.

dude, tegra2 games only have support on tegra 2 phones, like moto atrix
this kind of phone with dual core processor
defy has a 800mhz processor, with an overclock maybe goes to 1.2ghz, half of the tegra 2
maybe you can hope for porting, but support, will never get, only phones with tegra 2 have support
sorry fow this new to you dude, buts the truth

You can play all tegra games on defy using chainfire 3d. They work like a charm.

You can play lots of tegra games after using chainfire3d,but you'd bette roverlock your defy to 1000MHz

Samurai 2 THD is just perfect at stock clock

Awesome.. So i don't get one thing.. why does the defy doesn't support it natively if its processor is powerful enough to play the game.. ??

[Q] Roms and gaming

Hi all!
I wanna ask you something about gaming with this powerful smartphone: all of us are trying many roms, MIUI roms, CM9 roms, Sense-based Roms, Leedroid, ARHD etc with a lot of kernels, EP kernel, Franco Kernel, Bricked Kernel...
Which couple Rom- Kernel is the best for gaming? In all the Sense- based Rom I've seen that Shadowgun v1.1.2 [ tegra3 effects ] have some lags while firing at the enemies... Or fruit ninja lags when I put a finger for cutting fruits...
Can you answer this? Remember, battery life is important, but this Tegra3 is meant for gaming... Go to see what is coming: Renaissance Blood, an example.
Thanks in advance.

I am using ARHD 6.0.0 and with stock rom all games are running perfectly.

ARHD? What kernel are you using?

Don't think the rom makes a big difference. Saw an article yesterday on the xda portal where a person has a way to optimize the gpu. It was called v6 supercharger.

V6 supercharger doesn't do anything to the graphics processing unit(gpu)... It is a script that changes the oom(out of memory) values and optimizes them for better e.g. Multitasking .. By the way editing oom values is useful only in low ram devices...

I will give it a try. Thanks for the answer guys.
Maybe the rom cannot make a lot of difference, but now I'm on Insertcoin and games are not flawless as I was thinking. Before that, I was on Miui release, and seems to be best for gaming. Must try all of that, now try ARHD. Thanks, forumhookerdotcom

I know it doesn't do anything to the gpu, but it allows you to use a higher processing power. It sets the minimum values to 1ghz. Apparently some games which don't optimize tegra 3 is sometimes jumping around with the amount of cpu it uses. For example from 1.2ghz to 600mhz. That is apparently causing the game to lag/stutter. Some games only use 1 - 2 cores.

I think that there isn't this that cause lag on games... Maybe a ROM instead another can be more flawless in gaming... I don't know, tonight I will flash ARHD and give it a try!

You're right they do make a difference. I think in General the small/lite roms do work best for games. Will also try ARHD sometime, waiting for latest Leedroid first. Want to upgrade and restore later to Lee's rom.

The phone only uses one or two cores because it only needs one or two cores. What the problem probably is is the switching of CPU frequency slots

I don't know guys... This is a Sense-based Rom, really heavy rom, I don't know how can you play games flawlessly... I'm tried a short time to play to Shadowgun but it have too many lags... Fresh install... I don't know..

Good game to "test the tegra"

Hi,
Loving my new One X but want a good app/game to really see the benefits of the tegra chip. Can anyone suggest a good game (ideally free/cheap) or app with some nice eye candy graphics for me to drool over?
Thank you please

I believe Sonic 4 Episode 2 has the most advanced effects but gameplay isn't good, best for both is ShadowGun THD and upcoming port for HOX "NOVA 3"

Htc One X Performance

Hi, what u guys (and ladies) think about performance of this phone, I'm not happy at all... I buy hi-end phone with quad core, but for example GTA III seems to be lagging, this game was much more smooth on my Sensation with OC to 1,7. NOVA 3, also is laggy. I'm using viper 1.01 rom with faux kernel, with stock kernel was the same. How are u feelings about this?

Nova is not lagging for me at all. Try the latest kernel of faux(004b6), also use hamdir's gaming guide. About those games being smoother on the sensation, that's sort of to be expected. Those games can't do anything with the tegra 3 because it's not optimized. The developers, especially gameloft, does not care for tegra. They depend on raw power, where as tegra depends on optimization. I'm also using faux kernel with viperrom. Try hamdir's gaming guide, and remember the interactive governor is broken on the latest faux kernel so you should use ondemand.
I think it would've also been more appropriate to post this in the before mentioned gaming thread. You're answer would've been very quickly answered.

I was disappointed with the performance with the One X when I first got it as well. It was getting ****e Quadrant scores. Laggy interface and crap game performance.
I slapped on InsertCoin, flashed Franco's latest kernel, ran V6 supercharger and followed hamdir's gaming guide and it fixed everything. I now get about 800 more points in Quadrant, and games run perfectly smooth.

this is the problem with u people u buy a device n have the burning sensation that the alternative does better
let me tell u this every trick in the gaming guide I actually learned from the sgs2 forums
I guess they really needed all those governor tweaks too, let me tell u something else
don't ever expect full performance out of ur mashine when all default android CPU governors come so heavily tweaked to save battery
the on-demand default only calls full speed at 90% load, the interactive default only calls it at 97% load that's really conservative, the situation is the same on every other device
I remember I had the same gov issue with my sensation stock (In ARHD mike had them optimized) also had the issue with my DHD
android = non game friendly governors that needs to be tweaked
and finally the Asus prime comes with a performance profiles built-in and this app all it does is load the very same optimized values in my guide and scripts
u don't need to read anything just use my scripts, also the latest ARHD has the on demand optimized out of box if u can't bother
oh and nova 3 as well as most GL games runs smooth as butter on sgs3 because GL optimizes for Mali devices and neglect Tegra, maybe because of some unannounced contract
so go get it be happy

dead trigger is terribly slow with stock kernel...but with trinity it runs a lot better, there's some lagging in the beginning though

The galaxy nexus should be able to play any games out there besides the tegra 3 optimized ones of course lol. Emulators work great as well. Honestly, no apps use the superpower of the S3 yet so I'd still consider this high end.
