Recently, while I googled for some stuff, I got my eyes on this headline of a new wm game engine. I looked into it and watched a few videos demonstrating it's functionality... well, it was pretty damn impressive!
The engine is developed by MindPol, and it has been existing for quite a while, just not for windows mobile. It is about to be ported though, and they write in the description of this video (an app made with their game-engine) that they'd like some attention to speed up their release. So, if there is anyone out there who would like some iPhone-like 3d games coming to your device in near future, I think it'd be a good idea to support these guys!
A quote from the description of the video I linked above:
"This game and characters was made in September 2008.
But we didn't complete yet cause of another project we do.
... Actually we need more support.
Please give us your interest and support.
Thank you "

Any news on this?
Very interested. Will it be ported to the omnia?
u sure they gunna bring that to WM... all those vids were them playin on a DS
Hmm. Seeing this running on the X1 makes me wonder. What driver are they using? Standard X1 drivers on a standard X1 rom?
jeeeez i wanna have that stuff!!!!!!plsplspls.......i would love to see that demos on my x1....is there any way to get these demos?????
Hello, Thanks a lot for introducing our engine.^^
I'm a developer of this engine, Galatea Engine.
Yes, we succeed in converting PC version to WM version.
Now our engine supports Windows Mobile perfectly.
And the used driver (and rom) in that movie you saw is a standard driver which can be downloaded in Sony Ericsson Developer World.
As for Xperia X1, we used them.
Nowaday, our engine is more faster and better than before.
One more, Omnia doesn't support OpenGL|ES yet but D3DM.
However their new Omnia will support OpenGL|ES 2.0 and we are waiting for that. (In korea, we can't get any information of that device actaully.)
Anyway if you want more information, please visit our website www.MindPol.com or www.GalateaTechnology.com.
And today we released a trial game for Xperial X1 and some devices. Please check this on www.MindPolGames.com. (However it's not 3D game but 2D.)

You can get some samples at the link below.
http://cafe.naver.com/bjphone/288534
BUT THOSE ARE NOT STABLE VERSION.
(Check the date, they were uploaded.)
So it may make some problems. (Of course it's not big. Just turn off and turn on. In many cases, there is no problem.)
I will upload stable samples at www.GalateaTechnology.com later. I already got stable version, but I can't upload these now.)
Have a nice day!

Interesting, so you're developing this engine on stock OGLES drivers. Have you considered using OpenVG for this? It seems the MSM7201A devices like the X1 also support OpenVG with a few modifications. If you're interested, you can find a modified 3D driver which has that support in my signature.
Great work by the way, it seems to run perfectly on my Blackstone. (Touch HD)
wow!the demos run very smooth on my diamond!
i can't download from your website, it gives no download links
Can someone upload the sample's so people like me that arnt able to download them from the source website,can test them out =D

You can find links on upper right side of that article.
Anyway I uploaded STABLE VERSION SAMPLES on that article.

Maybe someone can work around a flash interface for that, without any hardware 3D as requirement.
Anyway I do agree: it's a great-looking effect for sure.
Cool!
If someone can try and extract it from one of those ROMS, we can test it!!
That looks awesome!
Cheers!
If the HTC Diamon where actually released into the wild!
Come on people it's still not out, stop requesting Roms/Apps until the official release date.
People have extracted the Opera browser already, and there are devices out and about. If someone knows where a ROM dump is...
I think our best bet right now if for someone to create the apps independently. What's on the diamond is the TouchFLO #D app which is all inclusive of messaging, contacts, media, and more.
Just like developers here were able to port the look and feel of the iPhone's coverflow mediaplayer with S2P and also S2U2. It takes time to develop, but in time we will get them.

Many of you may know as I have posted about this several times.... and from what we can legally say... we have been working with Qualcomm on possible solutions to the various QTV based chipsets.
But, ideal situations aside we are now going beyond that and are adding FULL QTV support to CorePlayer in an upcoming release.
I will NOT go into any more detail on how.... but if you liked what we did before with just the overlay support in CP for QTV that we reverse engineered (for compatibility purposes under the DMCA)... you are sure gonna love what we are doing next ;-)

Good news indeed. Thanks for the link.
Thanks!
Lets all help by posting at CoreCodec forum and showing your interest.
can somebody explain the meaning to a wm noob?
does this mean that the video-playback is going to be perfect when they release the new version?
I think it means they are working with Qualcomm to better take advantage of the hardware that the Touch HD contains with regards to video playback performance !

It was nice to hear what CoreCodec had to say later:-

OMG!!
This just made my day/week/life.
Its VERY good news, but it will be interesting to see how it effects heat production and battery life. Dont underestimate the ability of HTC to throw us a curve ball on this one.
Nice find - and great news (potentially)
Well now, this IS good news... or so I thought, then someone mentioned there could be increased heat / battery usage, which would be logical....
Anyhow, I'd certainly love to have the functionality and the choice, over nothing any day.
Look forward to purchasing the new Core player!!
...IB a n e
Wow, that indeed is good news. Without Coreplayer, video playback on the Qualcomm MSM7200 QTv chipset HTC devices would be a sad affair... HTC should thank the Coreplayer crew for doing their work for them
Sorry to sound like a noob but if I purchased coreplayer this week for the HD I am going to order does that mean I am going to have to pay again when they upgrade to 1.3?

Great news, big thanks to the guys at corecodec.
Sounds really good, must wait to see if we can use it to improve other device driver.
Well this is good! I've not run into much of a problem but I've only tried a few SD divx vids with about 1 Mbit bitrate, guess this will mean that higher bitrate will play smoothly and maybe HD video too! (Without the need for conversion!)
Ahh...OK.

Hello.
I am wondering if anyone of you programmers could make the game Crayon Physics Deluxe usable on the Diamond.
Here's the link to their site: http://www.crayonphysics.com/
It would be awesome playing this in landscape mode on the diamond.
I hope you can at least try.
Thanks in forehand //Felix
This game does sound kind of interesting. A buddy of mine just played it and said it was pretty good. Id give it a shot on my ppc. After watching the video though, I am not sure that a ppc could handle the physics engine to run it. Maybe I am wrong, but it looks like it would take a decent processor/gpu tandem to run it.

There is an open source version called Numpty Phyics, originally created for the Nokia Internet Tablets (Maemo) but since then ported to a number of different OSes such as Windows. The source code is available as well if someone wants to take a stab at porting it over to WinMo.

Hi everyone,
After suffering a failure with portal 2(snif), I decided to try another game.
I successfully launch Counter Strike : Source on the Shield Tablet.

What are you using for recording the screen? I can't see anything like shadow play or something similar.
Not that i don't believe you but a video showing the tablet running it will give a bit more idea.

I am a developer myself, I am writing this now as I build a shield tablet kernel....will be releasing that too, but I was just asking how you did it, what the process was, so I could try myself (as a developer) -- it's not that I want an unfinished product and really want you to port&release gmod, I am interested in how you programmed it.
Either way, cheers. Look forward to seeing your thread once development kicks off....it feels super lonely being a shield tab developer because there's like 3 others who all maintain stuff for other devices
---------- Post added at 12:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 AM ----------
Awesome. Looks like you've streamlined the port and installation, what kind of bugs are you tackling?
Come to think of it, us who are actually building stuff and getting the latest nvidia source and seeing what we can do with it....we should really have a chat or something. Do you have a skype or something maybe we can make a group for the 5 of us?
Wow this is awesome!!! Does this work with a bluetooth keyboard and mouse? Also, I know these ports run on different architectures, but do you think the Shield port could play online against PC users?

Maybe with the unofficial hacked versions of the game on PC. To play with the mainstream game, you need Steam integration
(SteamID, Steamworks, etc....), which is impossible since there is 0 Steam support for Android (Steam app doesn't include support for games).
But LAN should be possible in the long run.
