Submitted by unique * mnc on 24. August 2011 - 16:08

Hello there, out of curiosity I tried to launch q3 e+ and connect to the Beer Freezer. It worked quite well Winking

Here's the link to watch this video (Depth of Field is quite shallow tho...)

Tested on HTC HD2 and HTC Desire S.

Works perfectly on Desire S (60 fps) but on my HTC HD2, need to work on cfg, after that on beer, got 30 fps stable.

to play you can dl via market the apps : Wifi keyboard

or a french ass dev : Screencast

With both, u can play. But it's slow, and tiny.

[EDIT] BTW, u need a rooted device to play correctly.

I wonder how it's working with bt mouse and keyboard. On WIFI keyboard it's quite laggy (around 1s delay on buttons)

Re: Q3 E+ running online on Android

Yes, but simple android phone doesn't support HID device as native connection. Tablet and some devices can accept HID device connection.
On market there are only 5 apps who call the HID service on device. Only keyboard, mouse doesn't.
On Android tablet with USB, or some devices like the sgs2 it's native.

there is a large thread about HID device on google dev. Some thinks that it MUST be intergrated as standard, some other don't.

I try to play with Apple keyb, it's cool. I don't try with a bt mouse right now.

Quake3droid is great. I have been using it to spec, Demo players and rcon my e+ server for a few months. I can chat and do everything. Playing is very hard though. My mobile is a droidx by motorolla. Very usefull for me while at work to monitor servers.
