inductible Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Just fired up webgl quake on my shiny new Kindle Fire HDX, and lo... webgl. Super fast. In Silk browser. This browser has caused me so much grief on the HD and first gens this year I never thought I'd be impressed by the latest iteration of it - applause to Amazon.

gsgames Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Is it just the HDX models? I just bought an HD 7 2013 model. Can you post a link to a game that uses WebGL so I can test it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inductible Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 Just the HDX: http://media.tojicode.com/q3bsp/ Still got an app store that crashes every 2 mins (about long enough to browse the entire catalogue TBH), and a buggy keyboard though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsgames Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Yep, I got a "Sorry, your browser doesn't support.." message. I was planning on returning my Fire HD. This almost gave me a reason not to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inductible Posted November 23, 2013 Author Share Posted November 23, 2013 Well... This morning an automatic over the air update obliterated 'default on' webgl in Silk, and, so far as I can see, there's no way to turn it back on. Amazon.... for just one moment, you had an iotum of respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
