@Kayann - "alpha blending" - I believe you mean alpha multipass, as alpha multipass deals with dhadows and transparancy issues. advanced blending generally deals with lighting and shading, often it breaks things and makes the game greatly over-contrasted.

11.32 testing:
ok I did some testing:
- software - runs a bit better - it was already fantastic.
- multicore mode (force monocore unchecked) - it runs better - it seems to run about the same as it did before the update for me. It doesn't do the crazy 1/2 screen redraw it was doing, and is now back to it's more normal 'stuttery' feel. it's very fast, but feels like frameskip is running with a good number of frames being skipped. I turned up the thread priority, and that made things worse - more like it was with the original update with the 1/2 screen redraws. not as bad, but I started noticing them.
- opengl - about the same. I've still only tested FF9, I'll test FF8 soon. performance was same for me - without anti aliasing there were werid shadinging and colors, and the games was SLOW.

Screenfiltering works, but only in monocore mode

Suggestions
- Fullscreen mode. This helps to avoid accidental button presses, however this would required some onscreen way of activating Fpse's own menu without using the android back button... which of course leads to:


Try GMD gesture control from market, it has ability to hide/show navigation bar with a gesture (the app requires root)

Got to say then this is a real new problem.
I play the games fine in software mode but a lot of games have corruption on the boot screens when in open gl mode. I thought this was normal because the games themselves still load up

what do you mean performance tanks - you mean opengl performance tanks? or does sofware mode tank also?

if you are talking about opengl, did you try turning on anti aliasing?

I mentioned this in other posts - when AA is on, it improves, but not to what the speeds were. Still a 33% reduction instead of 75%.

To be fair, Final Fantasy XI ran fine - but other games, particularly with full 3D landscapes, did not fare as well (Dragon Warrior VII, Vagrant Story, Grandia).

Legend of Dragoon was a consistent 60fps but now it's at 45fps.

This is all OpenGL - the Software mode looks and performs better than it ever has, and I apologize if I only seem to comment to complain. I'm running dual-core with screenfiltering (not much of a choice there :P) and it runs 60fps all the time.


Same for me on my Droid 3 on any newest reversion than 0.11.29 (a couple days ago) become very slow (llike30 - 40 fps) with white things on screen, if you set AA on white things are fixed and fps become slight better (40 fps) but in 0.01.29 w/o AA there was no white things and fps was 50+...in other words, it was great. Please devs if your could do something it would be great. Thanks and sorry for my crappy english

I found last night in OpenGL that Anti Aliasing wouldn't stay checked for me. Running 0.11.32 on my Verizon Galaxy S3.

working great for me on HTC One X
FF9 has never been so playable with OpenGL
i made a little video to show :)
these are some of the biggest moves in the game so the slowdowns are as bad as they are ever going to be
