HOW TO Play TEGRA, QUALCOMM and POWERVR based games on your android device!!! - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

***YOU DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG!!!***
This is a real breakthrough!!!!!
I own a HTC Desire HD, though there are some incompatibilities with many games made only for certain platforms! Though this is only the beginning, many, if not all games, can be played from other platforms on your high end android device.
1/ Download the free version of ChainFire3D from Market (got some bugs with the cracked pro one, so for the time being, use the free one to test).
2/ Install the app, install the driver in the app, and reboot.
3/ Download the 3 plugins for TEGRA, QUALCOMM and POWERVR drivers from here:
http://www.multiupload.com/18ECNP4UH1!
4/ Place them in the root of your SD card
5/ In the app, press install plugin and wait to find them (2-5 min), then install all 3 of them
6/ In Default OpenGL settings, select use Plugin and use nVidia to do a test.
7/ Download an incompatible game, for example Samurai 2: Vengeance (Tegra only) from the Site in here! Or Fruit Ninija THD, or I don't know what
Test it! It will work!
8/ Download any other game and test. Use the appropiate driver plugin.
NOTE: There might be some incompatibilies, so not ALL other games will work. Also, if your phone's hardware does not support the games h/w requirements, of course it will not work
LE: If the game requires too much RAM, be sure to tick the "Reduce texture quality" in the app (it will halve the ram needed), it will have almost no impact on the visuals in game. Cheers.
This has been tested so far on the below listed devices and reported to work 100%. You are free to test and report even you're not in the list, it may work on any 2.1+ device.
- HTC HD2 (MDJ on NAND, Adreno200)
- Samsung Galaxy S (2.3.3, PowerVR SGX540)
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" (2.3.3, PowerVR SGX540)
- Samsung Galaxy S II (2.3.3, Mali-400 MP)
- Motorola Atrix 4G (2.2.1, Tegra2)
- Motorola Droid 2 (2.2.1, PowerVR SGX530)
- LG Optimus 2X (2.3.4, Tegra2)
- Nexus S
- Samsung Epic 4G
Below ARe Tested:
Samurai 2: Vengeance - works
Fruit Ninija THD - works
Pinball HD Tegra - ok
GOF 2 Tegra -ok
Backbreaker THD - ok
Guerrilla Bob THD - okAlso got my Reckless Racing working using the POWERVR driver. It didn't work before.

[Q] Opengl 2.0 support

it would seem that our device doesn't have support for opengl 2 or anything above 1.1.
I know the tegra 2 soc is capable of running opengl 2 (according to the nvidia website)
does anyone know anything about why there is no support for opengl? i would really like to get some gameloft games going on this tablet.
Which games are you looking to run?
When I had VEGAn-Tab installed in Beta4, I had Dungeon Defenders First Wave, and it worked fantastically.
I'm just curious which games aren't working for you. I can't get The Sims 3 to load...
Moved to general
From wat I remember I believe that android 2.2 won't show opengl as 2.0, the program has to call the drivers and such specifically. Opengl 2.0 should b working just fine because dungeon defenders runs great on the tab.
Sent from my SGH-T959
well i have tried all the gameloft games and none of them work they just FC after opening.
and the nenamark1 opengl 2 benchmark says that it failed to initialize opengl es 2.0.
just seems wierd.
Android System Info shows two values for OpenGL Version supported.
On my HTC Desire the values are 2.0 and OpenGL ES-CM 1.1. On my G Tablet the first value is instead 0.0. Seems a bit strange.
Both devices are Android 2.2 based. The HTC is stock and the G Tablet is TNT Lite Build/FRF91.
maybe its a type in some of the coding.
i did find a gles2_sanity.so and a gles2_simplespin.so file in /system/lib
i imagine these would be the transition effects in vegan tab. so yeah i think we need someone experienced in here.

[Q] Video Rendering Problem 3D Games

Didn't display graphics or some games didn't load when I run Gameloft HD games. Are those games compatible with tegra processor?

ChainFire3D on armv6 devices

Hi all, here is the thing, I saw that chainfire can provide a tegra game experience to the no tegra devices like motorola defy.
Galaxy ace's owner, i have an armv6 processor and chainfire works, I tried it on dungeon defenders and it works but when i want to install games like samruai vengeance, i've got the " Application not installed" issue.
I've also this error for games like Cordy or Stupid Zombies.
If it's due to the armv6 incompatibily, is there any solution to fix it?
Thx for replies , home you will help me and other with the same problem
If the game was compiled for armv7 only, then there is no way to run it on the armv6 device.

[Q] Can you play Xperia play's version of GOF2 on snapdragon devices?

Like the title says can you play with just having the APK or is it like tegra that you have to download chainfire etc.
There are 2 version of Galaxy on Fire 2: Xperia Play and Tegra2

Yes, since all Snapdragon devices can use the same games, it's just a matter of the market permitting you to actually get the game. If it shows the game in the market for you then you can use it. The Tegra ver would need the chain fire Nvidia plugin is that's what you want.

good games for LG optimus 3d

please suggest some good games for this phone. I haven't found the 3D option that interesting. the games that already game - nova, gulliver's travel, racing, etc are pretty lame.

Tegra games are games that run exclusively on devices equiped with a tegra processor such as Optimus 2X.You can run tegra games on non tegra-processor phones by using chainfire 3D.
Now,the games with the best graphics for O3D IMO (non 3D) are Modern Combat 3 (amazing graphics),Tintin HD,Shadowgun,Need for speed hot pursuit and many more
GTA 3 is good too but I didn't really like the graphics compared to the games above
Check Out Real Racing 2 As Well...
best games
you can find a pack of the 3d games which install to external sd card saving a lot of the internal memory space. if i find the the link i will upload it or there is a method to move the games to external memory.
p.s try sonic. the file name is .apk
infinity blade 2 is my best game as of now also thus johnko1 mention above modern combat3 and tintin hd
Hy, ive got many gameloft games, such as Backstab 3d, Shadow guardian 3d, Ethernal Legacy 3d etc. Ive installed Chainfire 3d, with the 3 plugin (qualcomm, powervr, nvidia). But i cant get any to work, after i DLed the rest of the SD card files, game starts, shows the bootup animation & video then black screen and exit.
Ive tried to search a solution here and also with google, but i wasnt able to find any. Pls help if you can
Best regards
Bertram
here you go http://www.gameloft.com/download-games/android-games/most-recent/ alot greate games most of them work on optimus 3d! also check out gta 3,reckless racing 1-2,pinball arcade,sonic 4 episode 1,bangbang racing,dead space,blod and glory,worms,riptide gp,shadow gun, also you can try emulators like n64oid (nintendo64 emulator) you can get that on slideme.com or fpse (playstation emulator) thats just some of the greate games for LG optimus 3d!
Anyone tried to play Fast 5 hd? I tried to play this game but it always gives an error that files can't be downloaded. Gameloft officially don't gives fast 5 for optimus, but some ppl play this game on Motorola razr, which is the same cpu and gpu. You must Google fast 5 droid 2 version to try. Why it can't be launched on my optimus 3d? I think something must be changed that our optimus will be recognized as droid etc. i changed the device model in build.prop but it is still recognized as lg optimus 3d
my favorite: DEAD SPACE. Play it with headphones. Great graphic, great made controls. the creepy music and fx makes your heard runns faster...
Our Optimus 3D GPU is PowerVR. Use Chainfire 3D for others such as Adreno and Tegra.
If low space internal SD problem occurs, just transfer your game data to external SD and use "GL to SD" to run it from external SD.
This is all my favourites.

Modern Combat 1-3
ShadowgGun

Use Chainfire with qualcomm plugin. Since it use a lot of memory, set in chainfire reduce texture etc.

GTA 3 doesn't work. installed fine. once you run it though it makes it to the credits and after that it's a black screen and freezes phone. if you try to skip before it also goes black and freezes phone.
N64 Goldeneye is a bit laggy and the controls are horrible!
Megaman X not bad.
Super Mario World good so far.
