Hello! I've flashed the brand new udK's Syrius R0 and it seems that it goes very smooth when it comes to the video playback, and also to Touch FLO 2D.

But...
I have tried to run some Direct 3D samples (from http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=105436&d=1218460506) and they run really really slow. However, they work well and they update the screen for themselves.

I also confirmed the GUI is going as always, painting icons as slow as hell. So... are those drivers really complete? or only a tricky way to improve SOME applications?

What about 2D emulators?

What do you think?

Thanks :)

Couldn't see any display performance progress in navigation softwares as well.
But Syrius R0 seriously rocks, even though it's a memory hog.

gxmark HTC Original FR ROM - 1350 pts
gxmark udK Syrius R0 ROM - 1500 pts

In syntetic benchmarks there are at least little improvment

I don't thnik there is any improvement in Syrius R0 concerning the 3d driver. In fact, some of my games, runs slower than before (Bust'em, worms, age of empires). Same for TomTom, i can't see any improvement..

I love udk's syrius R0 rom, but we've still gotta wait for real 3d drivers..!

Someone posted that any wm6.1 rom+omnio drivers+manila 2d work just as fast, I've just put the manilla cab on the udk r8 and reinstalled my previous backup and can confirm that it works just as fast with none of the problems that I can see.

EDIT: There are some known bugs with the manilla cab, weather images, music not found etc. but nothing I cant live without.
