I have just managed to work THPS2 accelerated working at full speed on our's X1 So what you need to do?
1. Get Software version of THPS2
2. Get libgles_cl.dll file from this kaiser theard http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=415523 and copy it into \Windows directory (unpacked of course)
3. Open directory where you have installed THPS2 and delete orginall file libgles_cl.dll from this directory
4. Edit file TH2_OPT.CFG :
- set RESOLUTION=640x480
- set Quality=High
Save file and close.
5. Run THPS2.exe or THPS2 shortcut in Games and enjoy!!

ok i will give it a try i played it few years ago
Very nice, just tested it out, works very smoothly, full screen, full speed and the screen rotates to the correct orientation once the HW keyboard is opened.
Using the same file and method you can get Quake mobile to start but it crashes once it starts to load the game files. Any Ideas?

Is this file " libgles_cl.dll " an alternative display driver for the X1, does it give any video and performance increases on any other programs you have tested ?

Yes, I have also managed to run Quake III Arena accelerated version (I have problems with texturing yet, but it maybe problem of config file), and software version with more fps (from 7-8 to 14-15). Also DoomGLES is working now but it is not visable ok on the screen (the screen is moved but I have tested only Doom 1 for now).
where to get software version??
I love it when things keep getting better
<3 the X1
Though, is this really full speed? Is the speed the same on the x51v, how do the gpus compare? And is it the gpu or the cpu slowing it down, could maybe overclocking the cpu give me a speed boost? Anyway it's cool you can map the game to the keyboard aswell. Lovely PC ports
By the way, how about the accelerated version of Stuntcar Extreme, does it work too?

Why don't you spend some time to read the thread first?
Added a forwarder to remap hardcoded CL calls to the Imageon CM dll

In others words, it's a wrapper driver to forward calls to our X1's native API to enable hardware accelation on some games.
BTW, I found X1 is even smoother than my x51v in the game play.

That's interesting as I did the GLES benchmark and ended up with measly 880 points in WVGA and around 990 in VGA while the x51v supposedly gets around 1200. I've even seen someone getting 1290 with a diamond, is such low score normal for the X1 or is there a way to improve it?

I don't have THPS2 software either. I was able to get the accelerated version, but it does not work well as there are no textures in the skate parks. I think there is a software AND hardware version of THPS2, and even when I set the hardware version to use software rendering, it will not load the level.
Would be great to get a test version of THPS2 software/unaccelerated, but alas, WAREZ ARE NOT ALLOWED!
I'm also quite interested in Dutty's new D3D drivers. I don't suppose there is a chance that they will wreck my X1, as it looks like you can uninstall them easily. Also, when deleting a file from \Windows, if that file was in ROM, it should reappear correct? (i.e. I delete the Dutty files that were copied to \Windows, and the originals should take their place)

ive not seen any downsides to these drivers yet.
yes if you "overwrite" a file in rom ghe original remains, so as long as you can delete the replacement then the system will go back to using the original
thank you very much
I'd love to have GTA 1 or better 2 on my phone. Perhaps some modded Controls would be great . Any suggestions?
(Both Freeware btw )
how can i cofigure the controls?? or can you send me your TH2_OPT.CFG file please

Freeware is something totally different from open-source.
So, my suggestion: dream on .
Is it possible to adjust the left/right/up/down function to the optical joystick instead of pressing the buttons?
I got problems with the paint peeling off from the buttons! Played too much ;o)
Hey
i have tested various display drivers with xperia (stock rom) and here's the info i got it .....it might be useful to u to select which driver u wanna install....
i choose these software to check
1.Sktool 4.4.7.1 (benchmark)
2.D3d tool (attachment in omnia D3D.rar)
3.coreplayer (to check vedio FPS)
here's the result:
A. X1 with Stock Drivers(driver name libgles_cm.dll in windows)
Sktool....1st 673
2nd 774
3rd 775
4th 780
5th 781 = 3783/5 =756.6 (took an avg)
FPS........31.550
--------------------------------------------------------------
B. X1 with Samsung Omnia Display Drivers
Sktool....1st 772
2nd 774
3rd 774
4th 769
5th 780 = 3869/5 =773.8 (took an avg)
FPS.......34.875
-------------------------------------------------------------
C. X1 with HTC Diamond display Drivers(driver name libgles_cl.dll in Attachment)
sktool....1st 743
2nd 772
3rd 773
4th 769
5th 766 = 3823/5 =764.6 (took an avg)
FPS.......33.026
So, i think Samsung omnia display drivers is best for x1 between the 3 ....
**needed htc touch hd display driver to test if someone have plz post in this thread**
omnia D3D
i forgot to attachment in 1 st post
Is mere 10% worth the trouble ?
try a true 3d benchmark for 3d drivers.. which is what you've been testing. Sktools bench isn't that good.
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/Benchmark/GLBenchmark-Windows-Mobile-OpenGL-ES-CL-33651.shtml
I'll up the wimax, HD and some others if you want (there's the stock htc one and another inside most roms).
Then there's all the Ddraw drivers to test, and the way they interact with the DDI (which is prebuilt into the XIP) for 2d stuff which is what more people are likely to see a benefit from.
heres the 4 ! from the quartz (wimax)
For the Stock ROM test, are you using the R2A10 rom?
yes m using stock rom n ver R1AA017 GENERIC_UK
Moin.
how can i update/install the graphics driver.
Thanks
I believe you just download the cab and run it, then soft reset? Not sure but I also want to try.
i've tried the omnia drivers and there is a slight improvement when loading up the panels and changing how they are laid out. Were you able to get hold of the touch hd drivers as i'm sure i've seen the panels work much smoother on the touch hd
The quartz and Touch HD drivers are pretty identical. I've posted the quartz up above.
i dont really care about d3d too much since no applications (except for panels) that i have installed uses it.
I would kill for some 2d acceleration during regular windows operation, however. as far as i know there is none and probably never will be
whats the touch hd driver called? i have one and would help if i could
The Omnia driver doesn't use the Imageon hardware (since the Omnia doesn't have it). It's completely software-emulated, if anyone was wondering.

Where do you extract the files to? Windows folder?
just installed omnia drivers, there is a speed difference. All Good
Yeah, omnia driver seems faster.
SO, has anyone tested the 3d drivers with GLBenchmark and is willing to post results? I want the best 3d performance I can get for my xperia.
Where do you extract the files to?!! how to instal the driver?

You don't. Just extract it on your computer than put the extracted folder on the memory stick. From there, use "File Explorer" or "total commander" from your Xperia to browse through the folder and click the ".exe" Click it once. Even though it may seem it won't load, do NOT click on it again. Just go to the homescreen and wait a while. It will load eventually.
In my opinion, this isn't worth the trouble. It also adds 1500 tracks to the Media Panel... which totally ruins it.. but that is a different story.
whats best for gaming??
Has anybody tried running the new GfxBoost program on their Touch Cruises?
I was wondering if there was an increase in performance and also if it impacted the battery life of the phone.
I tried version 1.0 but my Cruise freezes...
Now im using Neos2007SVG drivers...
I tried version 1.0 service work well but camera no work

Do you notice any speed improvement? 3D or 2D?
version 1.1 works on my polaris with wm6.5
installs ok, SR, process & service works, camera works
now i use MS3 + M2D together and its like it was, after SR graphics works slow then i turn screen off & on and it works fast as it was but i see no improvements,
windows wm6.5 default today plugin works not very smooth as it was,
file explorers (resco and windows explorer) scrolls same speed as it was,
3d games (virtual pool & 3d mines) works same as it was,
igo8 same as it was
so....it works but doesnt improve
edit:
i tried now driver from HERE and its definitely improving file explorer scroll

Here is the Link to Opera Mobile's FTP Server to Download the New Beta of Opera Mobile 7 Beta 1:
ftp://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/winmobile/970b1/
I'm Downloading and Installing it now.....Will update you all soon.
______________
I installed it on my QVGA HTC Touch WM 6.1 (Build 21014) on the SD Card and
It Loads without any lag, Fairly fast. Renders and loads pages Pretty well too. No Major issues so far. Graphics and UI look pretty good. I still have to load the Widget Manager and try it out, never was a big fan of these. I will attempt to post some screen shots, but I am at work and may not be able to.
______________
KNOWN BETA ISSUES:
Browser
Opera Turbo in Opera Mobile is still a preview-feature;
Downloads don't work while Opera Turbo is enabled.
Some settings (such as toggle on/off images) do not apply when Opera Turbo is enabled.
On older WM 5.0 Devices with 480x800 resolution, switching between portrait and landscape may cause display errors. This is due to lack of support for this resolution in early versions of Microsoft's driver.
Some input method editors are known not to work well with Opera because they do not comply with Microsoft's SIP and/or IME standard. When such an editor is detected by Opera, Opera will use a known (default) input method instead. An exception is EzInput v1.5, where the phone keypad and compact QUERTY, ABC mode doesn't work, but the rest of the modes work fine. We recommend upgrading to EzInput v2.0 to avoid this.
Only support for FlashLite 3.x. No Flash plugin included.
Widget manager add-on
The Widget manager is an add-on to the browser, so the browser must be installed in order for the widget manager to work.
We recommend disabling Opera Turbo in the browser when using the widget manager.
Rotating widgets does not work properly. Portrait mode should be used when running widgets.
Widgets + Plugins (Flash & Gears) don't work.
Clicking internal links in a widget will launch the browser.
Twitter widget might have login problems on first run. If this happens, just close the Twitter widget (X) and open it again.
omg omg omg
downloading..
ill post screensnhots
haha good thing i didn't go to sleep will try and put screen shots too.
omg it has lag!
looks like its not made for all resolutions
qvga looks freaking weird and lags bad :S
Just downloaded an testing ... another link in megaupload with the two cabs: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OWRCCJ4Q
Yeah I installed it a few minutes ago.
It's just a mess. I guess it isn't for QVGA? Anyone with a VGA device have it working right?
lags bad... :S
yea me too just installed it n it didn't even load.
Hopefully they fix this or it will be an extremely disappointing release
It's awesome on my ATT Fuze (VGA), no flash if people care, also the turbo mode seems to load mobile pages perhaps
Are you guys even using the right cab? I did a little research with the folders on the opera.com domain and got to this:
http://get.opera.com/pub/opera/winmobile/970b1/
Download the first cab.
I just tried it on my qvga device and its amazing. NO lag. It runs. Nothing seems messed up. Scrolling is EXTREMELY smooth, it's as smooth as the omnia versions but doesn't suffer with the auto-full screen bug and it doesnt lock up while loading as well.
Opera turbo works, though its disabled by default.
So far, i absolutely LOVE it!

I have to agree with zeuzinn, So far it's great on my QVGA Touch. The Link I provided is the only one I found.
This is awesome. Was just wondering about this and was about to go to sleep. Then I hit the New Posts Button. Installing on my Topaz right now.
I gotta say, its MUCH faster than opera 9.5 even with opera turbo disabled, thanks to the new rendering engine.
I just tried the ACID3 test and got 100/100!!!!

Here is an Enhanced D3D Driver for our Touch Pro2. Before you install driver run the D3DDemo file from your phone. Extract D3DMDemo.exe and copy it anywhere on your phone (Storage Card is good). Run it and see how slow it runs with the default D3D Driver. Then install At0mAng Enhanced D3D Driver.cab, restart and run the D3DMDemo again and see the difference
Enjoy!
Just to make things clear. I did not develop the driver, it was from the Samsung Omnia and the libgles_CL.dll comes from NuShrike. I have been using it since my TyTN II days, gave it a shot on the Rhodium and it worked. I did not see it in this forum so I cabbed it up (was OEM in my kitchen) and posted it.
The cab file contains two dlls both from the D3DM driver and the correct registry settings for d3dm_ati.dll.
To learn more about this driver and to try newer releases please see this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=496528
There have been a few reports that the drivers from above thread break a couple of things like the G-Sensor with Opera so I am posting back the original file I had up. Strange since I do not have that problem with the latest drivers from the above thread.
It's up to you to decide which drivers you would like to use.
Rocks!
TF3D is realy faster.

Cool...glad it is working on other devices.
Been using this driver since the TyTN II then to Raphael and now on to Rhodium Not sure if it is a good or bad thing that the same driver works on the last 3 devices I have...
Wow! It really worked and the M3D really is faster!
Cheers mate!
-ilari
On the Telus (MSM7600) it went from 0.85 ish FPS to a smooth test. Very dramatic change
Same for me here too
is it really faster?
does it mean, that the video-playback is also better?
TF3D is using OpenGL ES or Direct3D? If it's written for OpenGL ES the new drivers should not have any impact over it. It's only my opinion.
Any ideas?
Just to let you know I also went from 0.75 FPS to about 25 FPS.
Crazy change, just don't notice much difference in TF3D.
what's the difference between this and neo's beta 3d driver pack?

Same opinion. But I cannot see fps in the demo after installing the new driver.
The increase in fps is recognizible high in the demo. The object first is absolutely stuck without the driver. With the driver installed it runs fluidly.
in this demo I have a big boost with this driver !!
Whith games work with that driver? My old quake dont work on my TP2
Will this work on MSM 7201 chipset as well? I don't want to make hardreset again if something will going wrong on my TP1. Thanks.
Edit>
Nevermind,I tried it. Unfortunately no visible change happens on Raphael.
No Change
It made no difference on my Touch Pro 1
I installed it on Touch Pro2 and test runs a lot faster. And also TouchFLO 3D runs more smoothly. I don't know why, but it's really faster. I think TF3D2 uses OpenGL-ES and Direct3D driver can't change it's performance.

will this driver accelerate need for speed undercover or xtrakt as well?
Seems to work awsome. Thanks.
