Works for me too - thanks :)

...At least it fixes the 'main' graphics problem. But it's still not 100% right - It seems that where there's lights etc it renders as solid blocks so you can't see through them.

Still, makes the game just about playable :)

ForceExternalZBuffer=0

Square brackets not round ones! See http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=450

I've did that, but because I wrote the message on n900 that wasn't possible:p

Still the same problem though...

am i supposed to change the [SOURCE] and [webos] text to something else?
and remove the brackets or not?
i dont speak linux!

the source folder is your gamelocation (/home/user/MyDocs) for example when you've copied the game over in Mass Storage Mode.

and [webos] is just a custom folder in /home/user (the small 2GB partition) he used... I called mine preenv for example or just have the games without subfolders in /home/user/
for example /home/user/tetristouch or /home/user/hawx.

so whats the procedure in the save-space-tutorial...
simply:
-copy your games to MyDocs -> via Mass Storage Mode (because its faster)
-create a folder with game name in the 2GB partition of your beloved phone (/home/user/<your game dir> or /home/user/<any subdirectory>/<your game dir>)
-then copy over from game folder on MyDocs to /home/user/<your game dir> the 3 essential files for each game
appinfo.json, icon.png and the game "executable"

-put appinfo.json and icon.png always into the root of /home/user/<your game dir> and the game executable mostly goes into the subfolder (mostly having gamename) ->see orginial directory structure in MyDocs/<your game source folder>
-a few games have its start file in the root directory, too

my Need for Speed Undercover for example looks as following:
-/home/user/nfsuc
-----------------------/appinfo.json
-----------------------/icon.png
-----------------------/nfsuc (game start file)
-----------------------/res_nfsuc (symlinked to /home/user/MyDocs/nfsuc)
-----------------------------------/all the game files (but symlinks only pointing to /home/user/MyDocs/nfsuc/res_nfsuc)

and Asphalt5 looks this way;
-/home/user/asphalt5
-------------------------/appinfo.json
-------------------------/icon.png
-------------------------/Asphalt5 (folder with game files and executable)
-------------------------------------/Asphalt5 (executable - not symlinked)
-------------------------------------/all the game files (but all symlinked to /home/user/MyDocs/asphalt5/Asphalt5)

^^ clear ??? ;)

Greetz,

I completely uninstalled the game and deleted all files,icons etc.
Then i re-installed the game again and it worked using this:-

Please take care typing and use the correct case where needed including game folder and game file names

Go into x terminal

1 sudo gainroot
2. mkdir -p /media/internal
3. cd /media/
4. chown -R user:root internal/
5. chmod -R 755 internal/
6. mkdir -p /home/user/webos/gamesave
7. cd /home/user/
8. chown -R user:root webos/
9. chmod -R 755 webos/
10. ln -s /home/user/webos/gamesave /media/internal
(credit to zhandro @ maemo.org)

- i then created a folder in /home/user called applications and copied the com. game folder into this folder (all this was done using filebox) -

Install game with this

open x terminal

1 sudo gainroot
2 cd game-folder
3 chmod a+x filename

Test game from x terminal

1 preenv
2 ./filename

Game should load

if it works ok you need to exit the game, press ctrl and delete together and tap x on game window to close,

re-open x terminal window

3 exit (until x terminal closes)

create a game icon with this.

open x terminal

1 sudo gainroot
2 preenv
3 desktopgen game-folder/appinfo.json
4 exit (until x terminal closes)

Use x terminal at you're own risk if used incorrectly it can damage you're phone

If i have made a mistake please let me know.

I used Asphalt 5 v1.1.4

TQ SO MUCH. NOW IT RUN.
AND DON'T FORGET TO DELETE DATA.SAV. IF NOT GAME CLOSE AFTER LOADING PROCESS. THIS THANKS TO mido.fayad.
REALLY AWESOME. ASPHALT IS BETTER AND SMOOTHER THAT NFS.:D:D:D:D:D

2. Content for driver.ini:

3. Copy it to your device, location: /etc/powervr.d/driver.ini
4. ??
5. profit

Of course you can use nano if you prefer.

Well, It works for me at least :)

edit/and how to create that file ini?

Use a text editor: vi, nano, leafpad etc.

For example, as root:

Code:

leafpad /etc/powervr.d/driver.ini

That doesn't work for me. It still unplayable from the broken graphics. So an empty file will do nothing to the game itself.

What do you mean? The file /etc/powervr.d/ShrekKarting.ini should contain:

Code:

[default]

ForceExternalZBuffer=0

That line alone won't do anything to the graphic library. I think Preenv needs a more up to date version from WebOS libraries :) then we can be surely play most of the games. May be I'm wrong though.
