Java animation performance test on T610 or T630 |

Since the JBenchmark animation test does not work for the T610,
I have written a small midlet performing 3 tests for scrolling and blitting images on the screen. I'm developing (free) J2ME games and thinking about buying a T610, which obviously has a poor Java performance.
It would be very nice if someone could download
http://www.mobilgames.ch/JAnimBench/JAnimBench.jad
and
http://www.mobilgames.ch/JAnimBench/JAnimBench.jar
to run it on his/her T610 or T630.
There will be three tests (which are essential to game developers):
1. scrolling an offscreen image
2. drawing a lot of small images to the screen
3. drawing a lot of small images to the offscreen image
After each test, the performance in frames per second is
displayed for this particular test.
Could you please tell me the fps for each test plus the firmware
version of your T610 (Rxxx). (I've read some posts in this forum
about Java performance depending on the firmware version.)
Thx a lot for your help

I tried to transfer it to my T610 with R1L and it gave me an "invalid program". Don't know about other firmware revisions though..

thanks for trying!
Did you try to download it directly to your phone?
The links I posted before were meant to download to
your PC and then transfer it to the phone via cable or so...
When you want to download it directly to your phone,
please try the following link in your phone:
http://www.mobilgames.ch/cgi-bin/midlet.pl?cmd=JAnimBench
I have to apologize to those failing to download it to their mobiles. So far it worked only when you spelled uppercase/lowercase of "cmd=JAnimBench" correctly. however from now on it doesn't matter if you enter upper or lower case. sorry for the inconvenience.
I hope this works.

Now I changed the Manifest file in the JAnimBench.jar
and an entry in the .jad,
maybe this helps. Please download again
http://www.mobilgames.ch/JAnimBench/JAnimBench.jad
http://www.mobilgames.ch/JAnimBench/JAnimBench.jar
to your PC.
thx |

Now it's possible to store the program on the T610. But when I try to start it it I get an error saying "Program requires to much memory"
I've got 350kb free in the phone, but I guess it requires too much of the allowed Java memory |

ok, I'll try to reduce the size of the images involved.
I used:
1 temporary immutable image of 128x127 = 32512 bytes
1 mutable image of 148x127 = 37592 bytes
Probably this is too much for the display memory (80KB?)
of the T610.
I'll post again, as soon as I've changed the program.

After reading the above reply, I restarted the phone and now I could run it 
Test1=71fps
Test2=35fps
Test3=35fps
This is on a T610 with R3C software |

this is really some good news, I'd say. 71 fps for
just scrolling around is very encouraging for writing
scrolling games.
It's much better than the 32 fps I get on my Nokia 6610.
Also the 35 fps for the other tests are pretty good.
I suppose older firmware versions won't score as well.
I think I'm gonna buy the T610....
...thank you ppcrockar....
Looking forward to results from others. |

The results differs a few fps every time.. but not much... I'd say about +-5 fps on test 1, and +-2fps on test 2 and 3
There is supposed to be heavy improvements on the Java engine in the R3C firmware so the results for older firmwares should be a bit lower.

I've seen on the access log that people try to download
JAnimBench directly from the phone.
In this case please open the following link in your phone:
http://www.mobilgames.ch/cgi-bin/midlet.pl?cmd=JAnimBench
(otherwise, you'll probably get an error message,
because you won't get the proper header info)
ppcrockar:
what did you change on your phone such that the
application suddenly worked?
