197.128.132.70: /* N9 */

== Introduction ==

'''WARNING: This guide has been written for Super Hexagon 1.0.3 for the N900. N9 instructions might be different, so try it at your own risk.'''
'''Older/newer versions might not work.'''

It also assumes that you already have apkenv setup with all the latest stuff.

Initial bugs:
* Text does not work
* Sound does not work
* Performance is very bad, as it tries to constantly load the missing font.

== Fixing it ==
Follow the next steps carefully to avoid any issues.

=== Extracting APK content ===
To make it easier to follow this guide, rename your apk to <pre>SuperHexagon103.apk</pre>

Use WinRAR (for Windows) or any other alternative tool to open your .APK to whatever OS you are using.

Inside the .APK file, navigate to <pre>res/raw/data.zip</pre> and extract it's content, then move it to your N900.

=== Moving to the appropriate location ===
Place the extracted content into (if the folder does not exist, create it)<pre>/home/user/.apkenv/SuperHexagon103.apk/
</pre>

The final result should be <pre>/home/user/.apkenv/SuperHexagon103.apk/data/

.../music
.../sounds
.../bumpitup.ttf
.../license.txt
.../settings.dat
</pre>

'''IT SHOULD NOT BE'''<pre>/home/user/.apkenv/SuperHexagon103.apk/data/data/</pre>

=== Fixing music playback ===

====N900====
Enable extras-devel repository, then install <pre>libsdl-mixer1.2 (should be version 1.2.6-5+0m5+ogg+mp3-2 or later)

This should automatically install the libogg0 dependency, if not already installed on the device</pre>
(if using Faster Application Manager, click on the ('''C''')ategory icon and scroll down to "All packages").

====N9====
[http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1348090&postcount=1050 HolgerN] has reported that music also works on the N9, if the following packages are installed:
<pre>libsdl-mixer1.2
libogg0
</pre>

code (as root):

<pre>apt-get install libsdl-mixer1.2 libogg0
</pre>

=== Correcting game speed ===

'''There is no known game speed fix for the N900.'''

It works fine on the N9, no need to change anything.

== Playing & Bugs ==
The game performance should be much better now, although there are still some bugs:

* The music occasionally hiccups most noticeably when changing level, it also sounds somewhat weird (only confirmed on the N900).
* Game is too fast on the N900. One real-life second is roughly 1 second and a half on the game. Playing with vsync settings (in settings.dat) doesn't change anything.

* Small N900 tip: You might find it easier (or harder) to play with the HW keyboard left & right arrow, instead of using the touchscreen.
