    Exagear is dead

    They did deliver many updates since I bought it, so there's that. With that being said, we don't need Eltechs to implement hardware accelerated 3D. iirc such a thing had already somewhat been done via GLShim, hasn't it? Box86 looks interesting. As harsh as this sounds, perhaps even that one's...

    Exagear is dead

    I mean, apparently they did ports of games like Resident Evil 5 and Metal Gear Rising for NVidia Shield with the Exagear tech. Who knows what other optimizations were done there, but it seems like it can get some stuff done with the right device. Keep in mind that the video says it's not using...

    Exagear is dead

    Shouldn't 32-bit ARM applications still run on a 64-bit OS, given you have the right libs and such? It wouldn't be able to take advantage of the ARMv8 instruction set, but should still run. Might be wrong on that though. Exagear is really faster though. iirc QEMU rejected some optimization...

    Quick update and summary

    On the topic of the lid... could the lid state also be exposed as a key for easy querying? Doing that on the Pandora is kinda awkward, at least with what I found. That being the op_lidstate, which takes a little time to execute so not great for polling all the time. There's probably a direct...

    32-bit future?

    If you ignore OpenGLES 3 or Vulkan requirements, sure. If my phone is any indicator, whose GPU is supposedly a few times faster, it also wouldn't run at playable speeds.

    F(x) Technology Android phone with a slide-out keyboard

    Getting back to the actual topic (surprise), there has been another newsletter with more spoonfed information. Notable info includes: Supported bands: GSM: 2, 3, 5, 8 WCDMA: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 CDMA/EVDO: BC0, BC1 TD-SCDMA: 34/39 TDD-LTE: 38/39/40/41 (100mhz) FDD-LTE: 1, 2/25, 3, 4, 5/26, 7, 8...

    How to find out file types without extension ??

    TrID seems to be a neat fit to what you want to achieve. It can even rename the files for you if you wish.

    Best way for script to do web request and system commands

    Actually, couldn't you just stuff that link into a playlist file? That's common practice for internet radio streams afaik.

    Best way for script to do web request and system commands

    Regarding doing it from a web browser, registering a custom protocol comes to mind. Good old Opera 12 had options regarding file types and if to just pass the url to the handling application instead of downloading the file... not that this help here.

    F(x) Technology Android phone with a slide-out keyboard

    Been looking forward to this after what happened to the keyboard mod. No money lost on my side though, so no tragedy. Here's a detail that is buried in the keyboard mod's campaign comments: The device will use a 10nm Snapdragon 8xx SoC, so either the 835, 845 or 850. "And the most...

    iframes, huh? Youtube embeds are iframes, but those are fine of course.

    Code::Blocks with C/C++ Compiler

    Nothing? Okay, not super important, so let's drop that then. More importantly, I'm running into issues when running my game from a PND. It's running fine for the most part, except that all mouse input goes past the window to the desktop or whatever is behind the fullscreen application and the...

    Code::Blocks with C/C++ Compiler

    Hello again, I'd like to detect when the lid is being closed and opened. I've found "op_lidstate", but polling that is far less than ideal. Any good options? I loosely remember reading before that it also acts as a key, but can't find any reference for that, nor does it actually generate a key...

    Wrapping everything up!

    The transparent bit of the logo plate is (where the light is supposed to shine through). If I had the best faith in these people, I could think they may have transfered all the other mould parts already (as the logo bit is kinda small and probably not quite as heavy), but I highly doubt this.

    Hearing Test - Gettin Old Together

    Files on the host you've chosen are deleted after 2 days. Guess you didn't expect this topic to last, huh? I'm not really old yet, but was interested in looking at these.

    Code::Blocks with C/C++ Compiler

    Hi, as soon as GLES 1.1 is forced, creation of the window fails. Optional settings aside, the executed context creation code in this case boils down to this: SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_DOUBLEBUFFER, 1); SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_RED_SIZE, 5); SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_GREEN_SIZE, 6)...

    Code::Blocks with C/C++ Compiler

    Been a while since I messed with the driver. The choice on CC isn't that great. I suppose it was the default one as I just went through the newer ones and the only one that even started the game froze it after a couple of seconds of worse performance. Huh. VSync is requested via...

    Code::Blocks with C/C++ Compiler

    Sorry for the delay, couldn't find quite the time to actually prepare package it up properly. Already doing that. So if anyone has a bit of time and a 1 GHz Pandora, could they try running this for me? This is a limited build of the game, starting right in the problematic area. Menus are...

    Code::Blocks with C/C++ Compiler

    I'm already pretty sure I'm bottlenecked by the GPU, but I re-checked everything. According to the engine's internal performance counters it's spending about 50µs in the game logic code, and around 20000µs per frame in the rendering code. With frameskip on it's taking just ~3000µs - ~4000µs...

    Code::Blocks with C/C++ Compiler

    hey, just a quick question so I'll put it in here: The gigahertz Pandora's GPU clocks about twice as fast, but what is the frame rate difference in practice on average? I only have a good old CC Pandora myself and I was finally gonna release something for it. The CC one doesn't quite cut it...
