Ok, cool! I have a few minutes now I will grab it and try it.
10mins later!
OMFG!! AH Spike you, are, AWESOME!! 1st impressions, sound lag is minimal compared to how bad it was before and I don't feel any lag between using physical buttons or touch screen either as far as I can tell. Granted this is just standing in the start.bsp and runnig, gunning and jumping, but it is truly awesome! I can now tell anyone without a doubt this is the best Quake engine on the Android platform.
..The only and I mean ONLY thing I could see making it more Android friendly would be either a key bind or shortcut overlay for enabling the Android keyboard as a lot of apps do. One examples being Adosbox. Without a keyboard its not mod friendly I'm finding. You can't easily play custom maps single or multiplayer if it was working because fte requires you to type the name of the map.. It then requires one to edit pak files, rename custom maps to start.bsp to play them, and editing things like name & server name outside of the game using a text editor like I've been doing.
Few more minutes later...
I am able to duplicate the only error I've found so far easily. It has only crashed FTE once so far after abusing the error a few times in a row. Basically when I go to change my device's physical orientation from vertical to horizontal or vice versa the sound shudders briefly(which isn't the problem) then I see 2 console messages displayed:
OpenGL renderer initialized
GL error before drawing scene
I would guess you need to re-initialize the renderer when the screen is being physically rotated and that's why I'm seeing that message, but the 2nd part referring to some error is vague. I don't see people (me) wanting to keep rotating the screen orientation during play. It is usually one or the other. I know on my device the G-sensor is VERY touchy and even tilting my device a little one way or another will cause the screen to change orientation. My advice to anyone using this is to disable the sensor before playing. This error will crash your FTE only if you keep flipping your screen around in succession multiple times. 4 did it for me a few times.
spike: I do have photos of my console I took with my dslr in case you need to ever look at them.
FYI: Multiplayer
I've barely touched this yet but the game browser seems to work great, but upon trying to join a game from it, it crashes to my home screen quietly & quickly. I tried several times and that's all it would do. I would try manually from the console to connect to a game server but my device has no keyboard to do so.
I will probably try a few mods next and see what happens..
mankrip I was wondering if you are running a custom rom and or over clocking your Yinlips?
