Title: Machinarium too slow (unplayable) on Samsung Nexus 10 [SOLVED] Post by: SuperChunk on November 30, 2012, 08:16:00 am Hi
Recently received my first tablet, a Nexus 10, and excitedly started installing the Humble Bundle games that I had purchased in advance. Unfortunately, Machinarium I'd running so slow it I'd downright unplayable. I did a quick search online and found a YouTube video that shows the problem I'm having: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tixR3wrTkcQ Please, any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance! PS: I'm using the HD version.

This option can be found under Developer options." I'm sorry that I can't help you to understand how to do that. But I'm sure you will be able to find out how to "Force 4xMSAA" using the GOOGLE machine. ;D Title: Re: Machinarium too slow (unplayable) on Samsung Nexus 10 [SOLVED] Post by: CalmDownMonkey on December 06, 2012, 11:38:10 pm Did you make any progress with this? Did you find the developer options?
I'm having the same issue, but can't find them ;D Title: Re: Machinarium too slow (unplayable) on Samsung Nexus 10 [SOLVED] Post by: Alex on December 07, 2012, 04:11:16 am GOOGLE query: "Android developer options" + "Force 4x MSAA" Yields: "How to enable developer options on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean" Link: http://www.jayceooi.com/2012/11/14/how-to-enable-developer-options-on-android-4-2-jelly-bean/ (http://www.jayceooi.com/2012/11/14/how-to-enable-developer-options-on-android-4-2-jelly-bean/) Quote: "The most interesting stuff in developer options on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean ~ Force 4x MSAA (Enable 4x MSAA in OpenGL ES 2.0 apps). Too bad that Nexus 7 can’t support it. Oh well…" Title: Re: Machinarium too slow (unplayable) on Samsung Nexus 10 [SOLVED] Post by: CalmDownMonkey on December 07, 2012, 11:38:18 pm I never realised we were talking about Android developer options here, I thought it was something in Machinarium. I'd been centring my Google searches around this fact.
Cheers Title: Re: Machinarium too slow (unplayable) on Samsung Nexus 10 [SOLVED] Post by: Alex on December 08, 2012, 12:31:12 am I hope that means that you fixed your slow performance. Sorry for any confusion I might have sown. When I read "fixed it by setting 'Force 4x MSAA'..." it might as well have read: "fixed it by transgressing the Oobootoo user option and recompiling the entire junk box using Poo++" ! ;D In other words, I don't do "Android". ( still a rusty robot at heart ) ~A Title: Re: Machinarium too slow (unplayable) on Samsung Nexus 10 [SOLVED] Post by: SuperChunk on April 05, 2013, 12:43:14 pm So sorry everybody for the late reply. I forgot to request notifications for the thread and hadn't seen any of the replies until just now.
I followed Alex's suggestions and it works great now. Thanks again! |
