Re: OpenGL Driver

Sounds promising!?
Right!?

Re: OpenGL Driver

that does sound promising. Manila 3D is still pretty nice. The only problem... are there actual separate cabs that install Manila2D/3D? If not, someone will have to cook the openGL and manila3D into their ROMs

Re: OpenGL Driver

Is there that much diff between manilla2d and 3d? Pardon my ignorance. :)

Re: OpenGL Driver

No, not exactly, but they are completely separate applications... and generally speaking, M2D and M3D are built into the ROMs. M3D has the nice footprints thing, as well as the today plugin, and it looks a bit better. So it's an improvement.

Re: OpenGL Driver

Link, M2D has footprints....

M3D has more tabs, and better functioning, and looks better....but it just recently got footprints with M3D2.5....but that hasnt even been released yet

in no version of m2d that I've ever used have I seen these footprints... what am I missing?

Re: OpenGL Driver

Not alot unless HTC improved it since the touch cruise 09 release.

Takes pictures with geotagging, can open google maps and see where you took your picture, add notes etc. If you like the picture they are stored in a different format and are a pain to transfer to a pc. It also uses alot of background processes slowing down your ppc unless your a quick draw with sk tools to shut unwanted processes down.

NFSFAN was the first to port it to another device (his wm6.1 ROMS), he even got mentioned on engadget for his feat. He took it out, at first disabling it then removing it completely due to the performance issues.

A neat gimmick, not worth the slowdown and extra battery drain on your device. Hope it working better for the latest TF3d.

Well whatever, you know if you use my roms, they have footprints in it and it works flawlessly....and there's not much to port...all I did was drag and drop it into an oem....

lol, make him seem like a hero eh? lol I've had footprints just as long as he has, and I still have it...

good to hear!, and thx for the quick responce

Re: OpenGL Driver

This weird. I'm reading this thread and its actually on topic. No rumors, fights, or drama...nothing but phone stuff. I had to scroll up to make sure I was on the right thread lol. Glad to see we still have hope for OpenGL or just better 3D acceleration.

Since we're back on topic, does anyone know if the new Mega ROM stuff can be ported to our phones? It looks great and its specifically for 6.5 which is nice
