spvQuake on Audiovox 5600

[Guest xenophobe]

I keep getting video freeze in demo1 right after the first grenade goes off... sometimes it lasts a little longer. The audio continues through the demo, but the video is frozen at this point.

Anyone figure out a fix?

The author seemed aware there was a problem, but said he wasn't going to be able to do much about it I think. I don't blame him, but was just wondering if anyone else got this tweaked to run.

On a side note, I downloaded and ran PocketQuake by Muff, and the game display is completely different, yet the game video freezes at roughly the same point in the demo. Ugh...

Framerates appear to be really good, but the video freezes. :D

as far as I know, the demo playback is broken in both versions

if you look around the web you'll find a link somewhere telling you how to launch straight into a level instead of the demos

[EDIT]

add this line to the end of your autoexec.cfg

map start

then it should start in the start map instead of playing the demos

i deleted the demo files in the .pak file and i got to the menu but then when i started the first map i got a freeze. like you i can hear the sound but it just wont run. i know the buttons work cause i can hear the shotgun firing when i shoot. i think there just might not be enough memory to run the damn thing, but im not sure about that. i tryed to also delete the sound files so it wouldnt take up so much memory but then it just quit when i tried to play it. i would like some help too! im dying to play, english sucks!

my version has no sound support, but seems to work on more phones (was for original spv)

there is a whole thread on exo's version tho, just do a search - the answers are bound to be in there somewhere

Actually, there is an error in the code that doesn't allow it to properly address the screen buffer, or some crap. I found the relevant info for the guy at Exo, and he said he'd update his code to reflect the correct GAPI calls when he is able to. Guess the SMT 5600 GAPI is more picky than most other smartphone implementations. *shrug*

So it'll be fixed when he has time to fix it. He didn't say when, but he did say it would sometime in the near future.
