ART is now default in android AOSP, but Crime City does not work with ART

[cms5423]

ART is now set as the default run-time compiler in AOSP as of today. However, Crime City crashes on starting the app if the phone is using ART instead of Dalvik. This needs to be fixed or all android users will not be able to play crime city once the next version of android comes out.

Well, it is official. The next version of android will not have Dalvik enabled, and will be solely using ART runtime. If you enable ART now, crime city crashes before it finishes loading. Since I will be installing the developer preview tomorrow morning, crime city will no longer work on my phone (or any other android phones that install the new version of android). Crime City needs to be updated ASAP!!

UPDATE: They have a fix coming in release, 5.2.2

Thanks again!
