Howdy all,
I know I know, why would anyone put windows 3.1 or 95 on the TF? Games. I have been able to run dos games bia Adosbox but came across this while searching for an android version or Warcraft I or II .
http://androidblog.therevolve.com/?p=12
The methods there should be similar to all devices. As I test and get it working I'll update the OP with instructions. Anyone want to help?

I'm down with helping... I'm currently installing win3.1 on my computer using dosbox. When its finished, I'll copy it over to the transformer and try to run it! *crosses fingers*
Success! Windows 3.1 is booting on my TF using aDosBox. Very simple progress. I'll post some screenies in a bit.
Pretty useless. Seems to have a problem loading .grp files.
I'll try windows 95 next.
Can you try running doom or doom 2 on DOSBox. I'd be interested in seeing doom up and running on the TF! I'm at work but I'll give it a shot tomorrow afternoon!
EDIT: Just saw in the article it didn't run well on the droid. Lets hope the transformer has the ooomph needed to run doom.

Running Doom through aDosBox is terrible, runs extremely slow. There are much better ports in the market.
But for the sake of it, I ran it and took a couple screenies.
Hai husker91,Where can i download win 3.1 ? Thks

Yes there is 1.0.2 came out last week.
I updated my asphult 6 today and its no longer force closing on my 3.1 update.
Adrenalin 6 won't let me play online though. Even with correct usernam and password it won't let me threw
I have 1.0.4 and it still doesn't work on 3.1 without crashing.
So I will rephrase what I said, there's no update yet that work on 3.1 without forceclosing
refresh last purchase link helps? Anyone tried n working?

1.0.2 is the latest for the xoom. Your version for another device?
No its for the xoom
Just bought the xoom version today and the info screen shows v1.07, would the game fc on launching before?

It would force crash after about 10 - 15 seconds after loading into a level. Enough time to punch a few guys.
Will you test and let us know if 1.07 works? Might be time to redownload.
Just played through the opening level and completed the battle against Sandman. Level 2 loaded up fine and I came out of the game to report back here.

I just redownloaded it from gameloft and it's still on 1.0.4
Strange mine is definitely 1.07 both in game and under manage apps.

Whereabouts are you? Im in the uk, the uk gameloft site might not be updated yet
UK based but I used a wap store link where the payments were in $ so could well be why I have a different version. Got hold of Asphalt 6 and couldn't get online with it but that's the least of my worries as I played the game I found that I plain just don't like it. Now uninstalled.

Does gameloft send an email if there's any updates? How does one know if one is avalable
biggest downside of gameloft being the Lone Ranger is all these different versions and lack of a centralized place to get updates, etc.

I will note that NONE of these games will work online for our devices since they do not natively have 3G capabilities (whereas the Xoom has this config). IIRC, I read that we would need to spoof this somehow if we're ever going to play Gameloft games online.
Has anyone managed to make GTA III work on the Kindle Fire?
I managed to install it but right after the intro videos it jumps to my homescreen....
I'm using Chainfire3D with NVidia plugin....
I'm having the exact same issue, so frustrating!
I have a similar issue with some N64 games I play through the rom.
I tried all sorts of methods, from Tegra APK, to Qualcomm APK (and direct to Kindle Fire, which should be PowerVR), and none of the three versions work stock.
Interestingly, they all had different size downloads.
I tried all sorts of combination with Tegra/Qualcomm/PowerVR (with respective APKs), as well as unrolling textures, disabling hi res textures, etc., and none seems to work.
The furthest I got was after the opening intro, and crashes back. It seems to be an openGL overflow, so... yea... nothing we can do.
did you try the SGS 1 apk ?
hmm...
...
no success on my side so far aswell :/
Are you guys emulating? Its going to be released in the android market before too long

We actually are talking about the, already released, android market version of GTA 3 and not about an emulated version.
huskerdu25 just stated that he has the same issues regarding some N64 Roms, if that's what made you think we're talking about an emulator.

The range of devices that this seems to run on is rather odd.... It runs fine on my Thunderbolt, but then I saw people talking about phones released after the TB with better specs that it seemingly would not run on. Sure would be cool if we could get it running on the Fire.
best games working on kindle fire...
I have tried nfs shift, asphalt 6, GTA 3 but only nfs shift runs properly.....I had resolution issues with asphalt 6....gta 3 seems to return to home after video playback.....

i finally managed to get it going using this apk which is V1.1
started a new game and it was just stuck at the end of the loading bar
after 5min of impatience my kindle crashed and rebooted
MOD EDIT: NO WAREZ
I installed v1.1 and it works,no problems.

What was needed to make it work? Also, what sdcard data works? I was quite pissed to find these HD games don't work especially when i found out that Amazon does something attempt to cripple these games bought from the Android market and make special copies that they sell on their app store. I guess it's not that surprising....but i still don't want to rebuy several of these games just to play them on my tablet rather than my phone
I had earlier downloaded version 1.0 and let the app download its own data over wifi( roughly 450 MB)....but game used to return to home screen after initial video....
Now I had downloaded ver 1.1 ....and its working awesome....

Cant post the link here.....
I know this app wasn't working in Honeycomb, but yesterday I thought about giving it another shot after FPSe refused to run Chrono Cross without crashing, and low and behold it worked.
So yeah PSX4droid 3.0.7 works on ICS for some reason unknown to me, and the settings are a lot less painful than FPSe.
I do not condone nor like warez
So any mods etc read that line before judgement
Do you have the apk for this as i know the app was removed from the market and available for free on some websites with the developers open consent and or permission but i cannot seem to find it at the moment.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium HD app
The reason it was removed from the market is because Zodttd had some issues with google market removing his apps due to some stupid reason which hes fighting. But hes also considering removing from Cydia on apple jailbroken devices as well.
i will try 3.0.7 later. i know 3.0.5 did not work.
I came across the actual apk on his site a couple times but I know it wasn't easy to find.
I just went ahead and bought fpse, it works so much better for me on my phone and tablet. And plus, I have a ps1 and ps2 emulator on my laptop as well.

I have n64oid and it works great, didnt have to do anything to get it to work. Have you tried doing a cold boot or clearing the app data or both? What games are you trying to run? I ran mario kart, mario 64 and zelda ocarina of time and they all run great.

Works fine for me as well, didn't have to tweak anything.
I just did tried that and now i got zelda goodness my tf300 just went from pimp to godly, cheers mate you just made me a very happy man, ill add you to the queue jumpers so if you need any gfx just post in my gfx thread and you will be moved to the front of list

I was running 007 Goldeneye on n64oid and it was lagging like crazy, also Crusin World was chugging hard too anyone else have these problems? Could it just be that I need to use mupen64?
They both worked a bit better after a restart, but not as smooth as Mario Kart, Mario Golf, ect..
GoldenEye runs moderately well for me on performance mode, overclocked to 1.5 Ghz with fog and music disabled.

Yeah not all games will run well on any emulator. You could try mupen and see, afaik emu devs need to deal with each game, mostly separetly, if you see the change logs you will see specific fixes for specific games. So most popular games should work. Weird that golden eye isn't. I'm going to find the rom and try it.

that's what happens on desktop as well...
on pj64 you actually have to change the graphics plugin to something different before you can choose the pictures, but the plugin required to choose the pictures is too slow to play the rest of the game with, so I don't bother playing the game. I've beaten it multiple times lol so IDC anymore.

Results?
Also Mario Golf 64 doesn't seem as if it ported correctly, after you hit the ball it turns into a white square while its in the air, and the background is black when you are trying to hit the ball but changes when you look out over the course to see where you want to hit it.
