Important! Rom COOKERS! READ! - Page 6

I've read some posts about "reg tweaks to switch drivers". This seems like a pretty simple Mortscript to give us the best of both worlds.

How would this work? just include both driver dlls, and switch a reg entry pointer?

From my tests..... You need to cook the drivers in the rom to make them work. I have tried just installing them and they dont take effect even thou the reg is pointing to them.

What does cooking the drivers in differ from a manual install?

Has to be something.

It's not a problem overwriting the file since D3DMXSc50PB.dll doesn't come on a sprint device, You should be able to change the pointer at...

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\D3DM\Drivers]
"LocalHook"="D3DMXSc50PB.dll"

...wait a minute and soft reset. But I didn't notice any worthy improvements in the D3DMXSc50PB.dll driver over the stock d3dm_ati.dll driver.

Dream built the Omnia drivers into his 0.5 ROM, and I can say it's a noticeable improvement over the 0.4's D3D drivers.

TouchFlo3d responds faster and smoother, as does s2u2, and even skyforce, which I thought was a 3d game. Teeter even seems better...

So, AGAIN, when the eff are our devices actually using 3d?

Everyone seems to say that they don't like losing their 3d performance, but WHEN are our devices using 3d? Other than in a benchmarking tool, Give some EXAMPLES!

If all I'm losing is benchmarking tools, then good riddance, I'd rather have all my other stuff be smooth!

I agree with Mr. Burrito. TF3D suns and scrolls a whole lot smoother with the Omnia drivers.

Juggalo just posted a cab with the omnia drivers and a new updated Opera build tweaked for the Omnia drivers.

Look here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=51483

I tired manually installing. My opera stays the same. Jerky and all. Obver at XDA.. they mentioned several times that you need to cook them in the rom. I dont know why but that seems to be the case from my experiences.

I will check out dreams rom.
And very well put. all I loose in 3d from using Omnia drivers are my benchmark tools. LOL>

Stupid Question:

Doing some general browsing I saw a month old article over at fuzemobility saying the Diamond drivers are better than, I would assume, the Fuze's.
Is that an issue with the Fuze only?

I suppose the info there could be off though since they have a cab that enables the FM Radio too \=?

Ok, I'm game... I've found the 2D scrolling etc. rather poor on my device as well, and wouldn't mind trying to recook my rom with omnia drivers if it will indeed help.

Where is this OEM that I need to cook in? I've found a couple of links to cab files on the first page, but we already concluded that the cab version doesn't work.

Are we expected to use OEMizer first? Why hasn't anyone posted an OEM package to just include into a kitchen?
