Sure.. but do you use that benchmark everyday to go online,and check your email, and see your videos? Not really... thats just a bnenchmark and in reality its useless in real life performance for what the phone is made for. Internet, email, videos and everything 2d related.

Re: Important! Rom COOKERS! READ!
 

No, I don't but what about when I do want to do something that uses 3d. The 3d is so bad with that driver from what I have seen so far. The change you get from better 2d doesn't offset teh amount of 3d you lose. At least so far but, I am using the drivers now from calcu's kitchen to give it a real test.

Re: Important! Rom COOKERS! READ!
 

I tested these back in late november, and didnt like them. I would rather have the 3d over the 2d. it is simple to include the driver though, and then change the registry has you see fit, I also have other sets of drivers. and I have found that better drivers the the d3dm_ati.dll are the offical htc drivers. those are what i am finding better for 3d at this time. but I am always doing more testing.

also the new omnia opera is great to. omnia always had the best opera, since the phone comes stock with flash suppourt, so does opera then. and the latest 15233 is very fast with everything. however due to it being qvga at this time it has limits, i am working on converting it, but it will take time, and i am busy all this week.

I quite like them myself :)


So, educate me guys, I have a question regarding 2d and 3d. When is 3d actually being used?

As it was stated earlier, TF3d uses 2d actually, and not 3d? So when would I see a performance hit by using a 2d accelerated driver? playing skyforce? I'm trying to see what I would actually LOSE by not having the 3d performance.

I remember installing these omnia d3d drivers on my titan, and the fps went from about 4 on the d3d demo to about 90. i'm not comparing the titan to the pro, but am wondering exactly what uses 3d that we might use often? Can anyone post some examples of 3d apps they frequently use?

Thanks!

I agree, in reality we dont use 3d as much as 2d. I rarely play any games that are 3d so for MY needs, Omnia drivers are a must! And so far only Juggs 4.0 rom has them. So i will have to run on his rom until I figure out the freaking kitchen crash i get.

Re: Important! Rom COOKERS! READ!
 

Calc has the option in his kitchen and I believe is now running it in his rom. Dream is going to use it in his next rom it looks like.

Another thing you cookers can do is .... when you title your roms, maybe in quatations write "Omnia". So then for those who wish to run these drivers instead don t need to try then all.

Re: Important! Rom COOKERS! READ!
 

I'm interested in when 3d is really used as well.
Doesn't seem like a bid trade off to give up 3d for 2d as long as my movies will still play.
Teeter is probably the only 3d game I've played on the phone.

-edit- I just tried Teeter and it's no where as smooth.

Re: Important! Rom COOKERS! READ!
 

I am still running juggs 4.0 rom. I just tried teeter and it runs as go0d as the stock d3d driver. Teeter is actualy 2d. Not 3d. Also .. my google maps and live search maps is a bit smoother. Omnia is for sure running these. I have not tested gps to see if the lag is gone. But I am sure since these drivers are old news to some, that would have been discovered already.

Re: Important! Rom COOKERS! READ!
 

Thanks. Maybe it's something else.
That's the first time I tried it on the Pro. My comparison was to my Diamond.
