Survival Shooter tutorial sluggish on Android.

Question

I have tried posting this in the tutorials Q&A forum but the place seems to have gone silent. The question is about this tutorial here: https://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/projects/survival-shooter

So, here it is again:

For the fun of it, I took this tutorial mobile and built an Android version. I used the CrossPlatformInputManager to get the tilt controls, etc etc...

It plays fine on the PC and in the editor with Unity Remote. However, when I install it on my Android devices, the performance is horrible! I have tried this across 3 different devices and none performed: Moto G (2nd gen), Galaxy Tab 2, and Blu (something)...

While I may have a clue why that is (guessing high-vertix count models?), I'd like here your professional opinion.

If I did the math correctly, I am getting 7-12 frames per second.

Thanks!

@Spartan_Boy, As I remember, I used CrossPlatformInputManager as described in the guide that comes with it.

Basically,

     //Replace the commented code with the new code, as described below.
     // Don't forget to fix the variable names and check the syntax.
     
     // float moveH = Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal");
     float moveH =CrossPlatformInputManager.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") ;
     
     
     // float moveV = Input.GetAxisRaw("Vertical");
     float moveV =CrossPlatformInputManager.GetAxisRaw("Vertical") ;

This is what I remember off the top of my head. If that's not what I did, I will post back after getting home and checking the code.

Hi thx a bunch for your answer, I double checked it and it returns no error but i already have the correct code in playermovement script :( float h = CrossPlatformInputManager.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal"); float v = CrossPlatformInputManager.GetAxisRaw("Vertical"); [...] I think it comes from thenamespace with the samples vs standard assets. I can't seem to fix it and find a workaround.
