Sonic 4 EpII looks very good, but gameplay is meh for me. Guess I will never become a fan of the blue squirell ;-) Anyway what are your opinions guys, concerning the "much" awaited Renaissance THD? For me, the concept of on-rails shooter and the wonky conrols ruined my expectations, despite the interesting setting. Graphics were also inferior to Shadowgun, so even that point became moot. I seem to enjoy more Soulcraft for its pick and play mentality and better developped gameplay.

I will also give a try to History Channel's Medieval Battles RTS offering for Android, it seems to be a decent foray in real-time strategy on handheld devices, with a chevalier setting taking place on the Hundred Years War with amazing graphics. It looks just like Total War: Medieval, published for PC, almost 10 years ago!
[HTC One X] hamdir:
Sonic controls just like joypad but yea u need to be a fan lol, this is the best sonic game since the days of sonic 3 megadrive in my opinion

Renaissance is non sense i agree
[HTC One X] The-Last-Hylian:
Looks nice, I must say I haven't purchased the full game yet, I was abit put off by the framerate and controls in the LITE version...

Is it possible to tweek something to get it running better?
[HTC One X] hamdir:
interactive governor plus reducing some of the background processes, check the gaming tip in my sig
[HTC One X] hello00:
got a link for that game?
[HTC One X] Polarfuchs:
Govenor can not be changed on stock roms, right?
[HTC One X] timlambo:
I also just finished it two days ago. That boss was hard to beat. Tried a few times though.

Agree that Shadowgun is the best game. Well time to look for a new game now.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yes but u need root
[HTC One X] Feregorn:
Search for it on the Play Store or Aptoide. It's compatible and actually recommended for Tegra devices, such as our HOX.

N.O.V.A 3 Runs in Full Effect mode on the HTC One X if the official 3-Dot menu is not removed or chainfire drivers are installed
[HTC One X] nadejo:
what effect are they talking about. I can see all effects even without the dots

shadow, reflection, The smoke of the rocket(amazing), dynamic lights. Almost so much effects that you get confused :D (i hate those dots nvm).
[HTC One X] hamdir:
particles falling from the sky, smoke from certain place and light flares and post color correction

the famed iPad2 vs iPad3 version debate

you can see in the screenshots if you actually clicked on it
[HTC One X] nadejo:
i have all effects ill post some screenshots
[HTC One X] hamdir:
wait which option of 3d menu remover are you using?

menu on home long press or multitasking button?
[HTC One X] hello00:
i also have the full effects, even on multiplayer..where did you get the apk from?

i´ve disabled it with the aroma installer from [ROM] Android Revolution HD 6.1.0

its the asus prime optimized Version

the game runs with around 50 fps :D and i have all effects
[HTC One X] hamdir:
i know aroma but which option u seelcted

long press home to get the menu

or the multi-tasking button

i seriously doubt ur getting 50fps and i seriously doubt u have the full effects

awaiting ur screenshots

---------- Post added at 02:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:52 PM ----------

i tried all apks, same behavior

maybe related to the 3dot remover included in 6.1.0 ARHD? im still on 6.0.0 and using the 3 dot remove patch
[HTC One X] nadejo:
here you are :D

nova runs realy high fps its not like on the youtube videos (watch on youtube nova3 on galaxy note on my device its almost smoother)

The last picture is from masseffect
[HTC One X] hamdir:
this proves nothing! you arguing for the sake of argument and didnt even try to understand what am i talking about!!! NOVA3 has two kinds of modes! ipad2 and ipad3 mode, they are different in certain effects!

with the menu removed you get the ipad3 mode with the 3d menu you get the ipad2 mode, i explained quit well in my post if you tried to understand, you just made me try the mulitasking menu button option for no good reason and i was about to download ARHD 6.1.0!!!

i am talking about this! and you still didn't tell me, how do u get the menu? by long pressing home or pressing the multitasking button?

One X: 3-Dot Menu @ under 1280x70: Full Effects, Particles falling from sky, Lens flares, Post color correction

VS

One X: 3-Dot Menu Removed @ 1280x720: No Effects, No Particles falling from sky, No Lens flares, No Post
[HTC One X] nadejo:
sry your right i dont have that smoke out from the building

the dots i ve removed in the aroma installer mod menu in recovery

while installing my rom in recovery ive been asked if i want to remove the dotsmenu
[HTC One X] himmatsj:
Hi guys. I got an A510 about a week ago. Was gutted to learn that both ME: Infiltrator and NOVA 3 were incompatible. SO I searched for APKs and ME: Infiltrator worked great except for the boss battles where the boss torso kept disappearing but I persevered and went through.

However, no such luck with NOVA 3. I immediately get the response 'your device is incompatible' while downloading the extra data.

On a separate note, I tried Renaissance THD and I think it sucks real bad. There was much promise regarding this game. I thought its about time something new took over Shadowgun as Shadowgun is 'already' 9 months old, but that not the case....at all! The whole game speaks of low production values.

Anyways, it;s unavailable in the Play store anymore, so maybe the devs got our message and are working on free movement and some other enhancements.

I also played through Sonic 4 II and I must say the graphics are rendered beautifully. I don't have any lag that I can make out in the first 4 levels on my tablet. However, I am no fan of Sonic and the style of gameplay. But for enthusiasts, I think its great!

We also have (fingers crossed) many great games coming up over the next month. Bladeslinger, Deadzone, Dead Trigger. God bless Tegra!

Finally, up until this point in time, what are your 3 best THD and non Tegra games respectively? This includes graphics and gameplay. Mine is as follows:

THD:

1) Shadowgun PS: Does the THD version of Shadowgun lag on your devicecduring fight scenes?

2) Riptide GP

3) Samurai II

Non Tegra:

1) Dead Space

2) ME: Infiltrator

3) Warzone: Anomaly Earth
[HTC One X] nadejo:
hey compare both pictures (the one with and without effects) you will see there are some graphic errors on the right side of the building where the smoke does come out and also the building on the left has those stupid triangles.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
YES YOU ARE RIGHT, im just pointing out how to run it in this mode, since some people were saying we have the effects and others said they don't

the no effects mode is the proper Tegra3 mode were GL stupidly removed those effects

either way NOVA3 is still not officially out for the HOX so lets wait and see, its was just an interesting thing to know

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:14 PM ----------

thank you for this useful post

i didnt know about shadowgun DeadZone its a multiplayer only mode?

no lag on Shadowgun THD if you are using interactive governor on the One X

here are the supported GL games on the One X for now

@Hamdir

I just flashed Eternity project kernel 3.4 and it gave quite a big boost in the Ram and Cpu float scores on Antutu(Over a 100 on each).

I tried with gaming but dont have games that run that badly on the one X. Was hoping you can try the kernel with nova and see if you get any improvements.

Thanks
[HTC One X] hamdir:
ill give it a shot, by the way supercharger option 9 and the dev option tip seems to work great together killed all kind of stutter in sonic 4 e 2

we can quickly switch between Minfrees by using script manager widgets

nova is running quiet playable now
[HTC One X] himmatsj:
Hi guys....just want to know, for those who play multiplayer for NOVA 3, is there no special effects in it like burning buildings etc?

And is it normal for loading times to be rather longish?

Thanks!
[HTC One X] nadejo:
damn can´t wait for dead tripper to play on my device :D

[HTC One X] Feregorn:
Just found (kind of) another couple.of games, that are fantastic, at least IMO. They play fullscreen and have amazing gameplay. They are: Avadon The Black Fortress (turn-based RPG was ported.from the PC) and Oscura (gothic adventure game). Try them out!

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC One X] himmatsj:
Hi guys, I've looked at your previous discussion regarding Nova 3 having two modes - the iPad 2 ad iPad 3 modes.

To be honest, the effects (especially lighting) are great in the iPad 2 version. In the volcano map, there are heat waves. In the sand level, there is this huge machine spinning. And many other great enhancement.

The iPad 3 version by all means is great, but its static in that there are no 'extra' effects not related to the game.

I have an Acer A510 Tegra 3 tablet, unrooted. Is there any chance anyone here knows how I can get the full version running because I am sure the Tegra 3 processor is more than capable of handling the juicy graphics.

Any and all help will be much appreciated. Thanks!
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yes just install chainfire drivers
[HTC One X] himmatsj:
I am unrooted. It says root is required to run it.

Anyways I still downloaded the app from Play store. No difference in graphics for me.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
there is no way around it you need root and install the drivers in the chainfire app

you need to fool the game to think its running on other device

either by running in less than the native resolution like the 3dot menu on the One X (which i dont think you can do on ur tablet?)

or chainfire drivers seems to do the trick

otherwise there is no other way, since this is how stupidly gameloft chose to optimize the game for the Tegra3 device despite the scientific fact that the Tegra3 GPU is actually more powerful in pixel shaders (8cores) and weaker in vertex shader (4 cores)

ie: it can run all effects, post, transparenices and shaders of the full mode easily, turning them off doesn't change the frame rate, what GL needed to really do is offload some of the vertex load of nova3 like geometry instancing/particles/physics to the quad

sigh

Played 35 min Shadowgun THD.

And then it got unplayable. The touchscreen starts to get unresponsive.

Is that heat issues?
[HTC One X] P1n3apqlExpr3ss:
Restart phone, same thing happened to me except it was when I tried playing it for the first time
[HTC One X] metko:
How much battery did it eat for 35min i just played GTA 3 for 9min and i lost 8% :) from 100 to 91% is that ok?
[HTC One X] hamdir:
no feedback for Max Payne yet? i still didn't download the game
[HTC One X] Polarfuchs:
@metko

I played 35 min shadow gun and it dropped from 95 to 75% battery
[HTC One X] metko:
Nice to hear that waiting for someone that tried max payne

btw i also have shadowgun THD but the problem is im in the first mission and when the robot like minigun apears and i destroy it right before the explosion the game crashes tried it like 2-4 times and it crashes at the same place any solution?
[HTC One X] hamdir:
guys if the firmware and battery are settled the maximum you can get from playing shadowgun on full battery is a little bit over 2 hours and half (auto brightness)

and by all honesty this is good from a quad and 12 core GPU pushed on full

i mean how much does the PS vita gives you? (full gameplay session)

http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/13/playstation-vita-review/

keep in mind if the device overheats during gameplay it will drain faster, so far i dont get what causes the overheat, its completely random most of the time it doesnt happen but sometimes it triggers out of the blue

for shadow-gun crashes, you need to update to the latest version, the lastest was fixed for the One X i finished the game with zero problems
[HTC One X] metko:
Yeah you are right about the battery but the thing is most of us isnt used for our battery to die this fast as for the update i have the latest version (1.0.1)

edit my version is 1.1.1 at least the phone says so
[HTC One X] hamdir:
you need 1.1.2
[HTC One X] jonas2295:
I played it already. But not that much.

I am not sure if chainfire is the reason but I really expected better graphics for a thd game.

I will retry without having chainfire drivers installed some time later.

Game concept is great in my opinion but not very intuitive.

Sometimes you need to go back but before you get that it took me some time :)

The first chapter is a bit too dark in my opinion as my auto brightness didn't make it very lightened like on other games.

Hope that gives you a small impression.

Oh and no lag of course here.
[HTC One X] Polarfuchs:
I have 1.0.1 That's what is says in the app info.

But I don't have the crash where you said.

I'm already in the 2nd lvl after the boss.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
explosions can make it crash

the app dev says you need 1.1.2 to play without issues, what is the point of arguing?
[HTC One X] metko:
I edited my post i have the 1.1.1 version

---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:09 PM ----------

Downloading the update :) will report
[HTC One X] Pointlol:
Just saw you can raise the resolution and textures in the options. Just letting you know
[HTC One X] Feregorn:
Max Payne doesn't have good graphics because it's a freaking early-2000 PC game. It can't get better than that. At that time PCs were single core with average speed of less than 1GHz. What did you expect???

As to those complaining about battery life on HOX when playing games, the same prinicple applies: What did you expect? You have a device of comparable power to the PS Vita, 3 hours of a dedicated gaming session is a more than acceptable result. I get more than that with brightness set on 25% (I have good vision) when playing anh THD game, like Soulcraft, Riptide, Shadowgun, FIFA 12 on my stock HOX.

It is what it is, people...
[HTC One X] Pointlol:
Max Payne is playing at 60 fps @ full graphics and tbh it looks VERY decent for a mobile game. Really enjoying it so far

Re: Modern Combat 3

This is the email I received from Gameloft when I enquired about MC3 on the One X:

Hello!

Unfortunately, you can not get the games back on your new phone. According to Gameloft policy if you buy a game, you can re-download it to the same phone with the same phone number within 3 years of your purchase. If the phone model or number was changed by the customer's own initiative, Gameloft has the right to refuse re-sending the game.

You can not re-download or transfer games which you bought on your old phone (model Samasung Galaxy SII) to the new phone (model HTC One X), because we produce each game-build for one particular phone to ensure the best quality and to prevent piracy. If you want to have games on your new phone, I'm afraid you will have to buy them again.

Sorry for the inconveniences. If you have any other questions, please let me know.

Best regards,

-------------------------------

Customer Care Agent

I have since escalated my query to a complaint so will see what they say. Ridiculous that I can play the game illegally but not as a legitimate purchase. :o
[HTC One X] metko:
And people ask then why dont you buy games why do you support piracy :)
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
Yep, I stopped buying via the wapstore for this reason.

When I buy an app on the play store, I can use it on updated devices no problem, so long as its compatible

I've bought nearly ALL Gameloft games from my psst phones, yet I have none for my HOX.

Also, they have MC3 compatible on the wapstore, but not on my purchased Google play store version!

.
[HTC One X] nadejo:
it´s gamelofts fault but there is a optimized version i´m playing and i must say together with gamechi speedhack the players are leaving the game when im playing :) 60fps

i made like 20 kills in 1 minute and did not die and nuclear bomb :)
[HTC One X] hamdir:
lol @ max payne graphics :D

but at least its working perfectly and not getting those stupid clock dips

so what did tegra 3 get? the much enhanced lighting, texture filtering and particles?

its not really pushing it is it
[HTC One X] boshot:
It's an old game.. there is no enhanced lighting, texture filtering and particles..

i was talking about the enhanced t3 parts

i does have them

compare to other phone

Gameloft suck b??ls!

These people create great games but there atitude sucks.

The more people they piss off the better as they deserve to fail. If you buy the game once it surely should be enough?

Nova 3 running fairly OK

little bit of Lag every now and again

no problems with the not showing smoke or explosions

one big problem for me is what looks like an unrendered sprite when sprinting

it only happens when sprinting, as soon as you stop everything is fine again but whilst sprinting i just see this below

anyone have any ideas on how to resolve
[HTC One X] Polarfuchs:
Did you notice that it is not only on the diagonal but also on the top and left edge?
[HTC One X] hamdir:
this is only in the full effect mode when you have 3dot menu enabled or chainfire, this mode is no Tegra3 official so such bugs for now until the game is released for the One X are forgivable
