Anyone found a way to unleash our Nexus's into Medium and High settings?
I mean, it's clearly that the game isn't running at 720p, but that's normal for what i researched...
But im running the game at low (can't go higher) at 60fps.. it's basicly locked by v-sync.
I know that it can handle higher settings...
There is a way that worked on other phones, consisting on tricking asphalt into thinking you had a S4, but that doesn't work on the Nexus, idk why.
If there is a way.. i've searched all over and didn't find any...
Damn, i'd love this game to run with nicer graphics.

Hey guys,
Just reposting this as a start of the themes and apps for X1 .
Now who was it that insisted that Xperia lacked a 3D chip? Thanks to itje for basing his latest Custom ROM on the leaked R3AA ROM and seperately providing CABs to some of the goodies available in the new ROM version, you can get your hands on ‘Xtrakt’ - a new 3D game by Sony Ericsson – right now! The game has really great graphics and runs quite smoothly on the device. Though it warns not to run any other applications when playing the game, it ran just fine with SPB Screenshot running besides it.
Best controlled with a stylus, you control the main character of the game on a future motorcycle destroying monsters. Doesn’t sound too appealing, i know, but the game is actually good! Better than many games that i’ve played on my iPhone and opens the door to better gaming on Windows Mobile. (True that an accelerometer would have been quite handy in handling the bike, but stylus/finger control of the bike sits well with the game).
To download head on here. You do not need to flash to the custom ROM to play this game. However, there definitely might be better graphics drivers in the R3AA ROM than the R2 or R1 ROMs.

One visit to the toilet and I already made it to level 4! I was really surprised with how good it looks and runs!!! (the game, that is.... ;-)
^^ LOL!
Great game
This is the kind of stuff I xpect from Sony Ericsson
Could it be run with the stock X1 ROM? I don't want to flash any ROMs at all (I bought X1 for my fem and she's really short tempered)
should run...but maybe not that fast...

If you were talking about the oreginal ROM.
yes it works just smooth
when i try to install the cab,
it sayd that the insallation was unsuccessful.
something i need?

No need to double post it! (I know you probally just hit the submit reply button 2x on accident ).
Stock rom should run just as good as a custom one. It uses hardware acceleration with OpenGL drivers that are already on the phone so.
same problem here, says installation unsuccessful straight away. bah.
Works great here, I'm using Generic_SE R2A rom.
Thanks!

Install to phone, not to storage card
i did........
doesn't even let me get as far as to ask. i've tried installing it *from* both storage card and main memory, but it instantly says unsuccessful.
might be due to VF hackery.
ah well, i'll just wait til it actually get released.
Wow.. It's awesome.. Hard to find WVGA game.
Not working here either - no real hacking done (vodafone rom though)
just says the install is unsuccessful
I hae the same problem ....INstall unseccessful
Why is this? Anybody found out yet?
thats cause it's supposed to work perfectly.
Im using the Vodafone Dutch R2A ROM. Love the game and it runs super smooth
Working now. I think perhaps that I didn't have enough room in my memory so it failed. Excellent graphics and game play, 10 levels! Very impressive to show people, certainly throws a punch against the iPhone!
The second version of the XTRAKT game, its on this website:

This ain't gonna last long, that's Synchroniser's blog, he was posting his warez here, but the thread was locked / deleted.
This is a Warez thread, mod gods do ur thang
aww got me all excited for nothing... silly people
edit: hold on im gona give it a try
edit: ok ok ok i got it.. downloaded it. tested it. and it does look like xtrakt 2 to me
BUT! i made it safe for you guys and uploaded it here
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=UHOSMXME
Working!
Tried it, it's working fine on my HD
Just need to disable "Accelerometer" to move
I think this is the update version of Xtract... in Sony Experia X2
Xtract X2
Yep.... Its the same as this Version >>DownLoad Here<<
Its an "updated" version of the original Xtrakt - new menu's etc with what seems like an improved game-play. If you have multitouch as on the HD2 you can dissable accelerometer in the settings and steer and fire at the same time using the screen....
I'm impressed....
.
i could not steer on my tp... so idk whats the problem. its not the good of a game for the tp either because some of the screen gets cut off
Multitouch is not working (I have disabled the accelerometer)...tested on HD2...
Much smoother than better, thanks! But it doesn't install to Storage Card.
(after installing, you can move it to memory card and it still plays just as smooth. no worries)
Did any one try this?(Pxdroid)
The app seems to lag(v3.0)
And i've tried some games nothing works!..
You can download application form here>

Psx4Droid sucks, FPSe is really much more productivity.
PSX4droid isn't compatible with the SGS2, and some other high-end advices. Doesn't work with the Optimus 2x either. You can keep an eye on his site (http://www.zodttd.com/) and wait for the update he's "making."

Thread close by me as this is solved!
Does it work with you?
I could open it, download game data but then it closes (no force close) every time I click on the app icon. Downloaded Chainfire 3D, installed it, but no luck.
I9000 + MIUI
Works for me pretty smoothly.
I really want to download this game but i want to know if the i9000 can handle it first =/.
If it doesn't work go into market and hit refund. I believe it gives you a full refund if you uninstall within 15 minutes of downloading.
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Yeah thats true but the problem with big games like this is that if you have trouble downloading the additional files the 15 minute window can soon disapear.
They should have left the refund time at 1 hour. 15 minutes just isnt enough half of the time.
Of course it will run smoothly on Galaxy S... It's 1 thread optimized game and actually does not require dual core device.
pls post your kernel, rom or other requirments what we need to play.
thanks.

I9000? Which ROM?
I'm getting a bit closer now... I can now watch the two intros, but then it exits again.
Doesn't work for me (Cyanogenfortomorrow). Damn, i first bought it on Galaxy S, than i got my money back. Later i tried on galaxy nexus, where it isn't working either, and now i can't get back my money.
It's not working for me either (i'm on Darkys 10.2 EE),i'm now installing Chainfire 3d as you suggested
edit: doesnt work with chainfire3d either...
Lame!
I really wanted to download this game =[

It almost works for me
It opens, and when I leave it, it shows the credits while music is playing. However, when I touch the screen, it turns black and nothing seems to happen anymore.
I am running Simplicity 2.1
edit: just got it as far as the homescreen, clicked start game, and now I have a black screen and nothing happens :-(
edit2: with chainfire3d it doesn't work either

Ok, so earlier on i was having a mees about with the deviceconfig.xml in the asphalt obb file.
I got some good graphics working but it added a bit of lag.
I have now created a deviceconfig.xml wich will put the game to max graphics and also be extremely smooth. (Its about the same as we have now with the latest update, if not smoother)
Basicly what i have done is....gone into device config.xml and swithed our device with the galaxy s3, our device falls under medium-hi dev class. (That class has bad graphics) and changed it with high-dev class devices (galaxy s3 max graphics) so all i have done is switched the to names around.
There are one or two graphic effects i have turned off. They are very minor and not even noticable.
So..... heres what you have to do.
1. Copy the .obb file off you're device from android/data/obb/ com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA7HM/ main.101.com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA7HM.obb
2. Using 7 zip right click the file and open archive, now go to data/deviceconfig/ and you will see 1 file (deviceconfig.xml) delete it. It will take anout 2 minutes to delete.
PLEASE READ If anyone is nterested in having the game the way it should be then what we need to do is tell gameloft to enable hires_map for tegra 3 on twitter. just simplyu copy and paste this to gameloft. @gameloft please enable hires_map for asphalt heat tegra 3 {nexus 7) also put it in youre review in the playstore. it seams a bit extreme but otherwise we wil never have the game the way it should be. wich is what we all thought we where getting when we purchased it.
if enough people do this then maybe they will listen. its no good one or two people doing it as gameloft seam happy with the game the way it is.
3. Now copy the new deviceconfig.xml over o where the old one was. Once again this will take about 3 minutes to copy over.
4. Now exit 7 zip, delete the obb file wich is still on youre tablet and now copy the new one over.
5. Start the game, it will tell you it needs to download 1mb of data (this normaly resets everything we have done but it wont)
6. Enjoy.
I put a lot of trying and error into this to get it working the way it is. If there are any hiccups i will once again edit this file.
UPDATE!!!!!!
Enabled msaa
enabled gamma illuminance
enable high quality car shader
maybe one or two more things.
there is not much i can do in reguards to the enviroment. allthough it does look better.
you should try a quick race on huwai and you should see the differance. i noticed a slight frame rate drop every now and then, nothing to bad though and i am enjoying the game very much the way i have this xml set up.
i reccomend you pull the xml you are using now and keep it on youre computer for backup reasons, incase you think the game is to laggy.
Link Updated [https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B2EOPJ1y9uirdlI2MG0xYkIyQjg
UPDATE 2!!!!!!
this as hire map enabled. i disabled some other graphices to make this even remotely playable. i would not reccomend you keep using this si its laggy. this is just to show you what the game should look like. infact it should look better than this but as i said i dissabled some effects.ie gamma illuminance. post process render textures. dynamic car shader.
hi es map link https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B2EOPJ1y9uirLWZMamx1cnJqN2M
please do not write back to me complaining this is laggy. i allready know this and there is nothing i can do. we allready have the best we can get with the previous release.
No one done this?

I hear batman does not have that good graphics on nexus 7. I dont have the game and not sure if there is a deviceconfig.xml in the files. But if someone can check and if there is, upload it here. I would be more than happy to take a look and see wht i can do.
I hav checked nova 3 and moden combat 3 and cant see a deviceonfig.xml so there is nothing i can do with those two games. Maybe spiderman has one but i dont own that game either.

I'll give this a try tonight. :good:
Spiderman has very glitchy graphics and could really do with a tweek! I've deleted it off my tab to make room for Horn so can't fit it back on to check if it has one of these files.
How do i copy the .obb file it wont even let me ? o.o
i can confirm that this does work to improve the graphics of A7. most improved was the reflections off the car what was dull before has environmental reflections now. hard to tell if there has been any track or environment improvements maybe leelaa can go into detail on what he has done?
thx & cheers

first have your N7 plugged into the PC. go into your my computer and in your drives list it should have your n7 as the last one. look at the file list and open the android folder two options data / obb click obb. open the folder for A7HM. you will see the a7hm obb file listed as 1.36g right click copy. right click your desktop and select paste. if you did it right a pop up should come up showing the file moving to your pc.
then follow leelaas directions.
I just tried the fix and I can also confirm that it improves some graphics, namely the reflections on your car and the motion blur effect while using NO2.
Some minor problems occurred though: on the Rio track, at some points opponent cars appeared to disappear and reappear out of nowhere. Also, the game doesn't wait for you to touch the screen to continue after you've finished a race, moving instead right on to the results screen. Both of these are relatively minor niggles considering the improvement.
Thanks, leelaa.

what i have mainly done is switched are device config withe the galaxy s3's. the galaxy s3's class in the deviceconfig.xml has all graphics turned on. the only one that isnt is use_msaa {multi sample anti alasing} i have tried with this turned on and it does improve the overall quality of the graphics slightly, but there was quite a bit of frame rate drops. it was still very playable but i wanted to keep the game as smooth as possible and at the same time keep an acceptable frame rate. if anyone would like i could upload the deviceconfig.xml with the mssa enabled? and you can decide on the performance vs graphic quality.
as for the game going straight to the results, i have noticed this too. i dont know what is causing it but really isnt a problem. as the only thing you can really do after a race is touch the screen to continue. so really i see this as saving us doing a job lol. i will take another look in the xml in about an hour and see what i can bump up.
on a side note, i put the gameplay hud in low res texture. i personaly cant notice any diferance but this improved performance.

ok so i have bumped every setting i can, and for some reason it plays smoother than the last one i uploaded here. i cocked up one setting though and you could only see the car wheels. but not the actual car. i would say the lightiong and enviroment is as good as we can possibly get. i dont think we will ever see these graphics on our device from gameloft. just waiting for the obb file to copy to my device so i can see if i have corrected the car issue where you can see wheals only. if all is well i will upload. i think this can be compared to ios graphics if not better.

No it is not the new link, the next one i put will be calked updated. I have been running asphalt now with max graphics. Even graphics that are not turned on by default ie use_msaa and gamma_illuminance. I want to change the actual gamma file as i think i can make the graphics look even better. This process will take about 10 minutes and i know i can do it so theres no worries there.
The only problem is my lapop screen is completely broke so i have to connect it to our tv. But my wife is eatching the soaps. Its a stupid situation, but new file will be up tonight. And trust me, you will love it
Sorry or the hold up guys.
So my next process will be......edit the gamma.txt file, and test that on one or two tracks. If that pans out the way i want it to i will upload. If it does not look as good as the one i am testing now i will revert the gmma.txt and upload.
So there may be two files you have to copy over this time.
I will update the instructions if needed.
Thank for youre patience guys.
And i am glad its working for you.

no probs, just sending back now
The reason why are device has the bad graphics is dow to the xml. There are 4 classes low,medium,medium hi dev and high. For a strange reason our device falls in the meium category. I dont know why this happens but its something gameloft need to sort. But they dont seem to of acknowledged this at all. Because when the game was released our device was in medium class. And it was very bad, yes fir enough they updated the game and the graphics looked slightly better and framerate- bu in other places the graphics are worse. The main thing is that our device still falls into medium class.
All they really need to do is create a tegra class and assign our device to that class along with other tegra devices. Its such a simple fix but they dont do it. They are lazy and take shortcuts by doing what i am doing now and it seems they cant even do that properly.
We bought the game that was advertised, not a work in progress.
