[Q] EA Games not working for me

Anyone able to get EA games like Sims 3 and Need for Speed up and running on Vegan, or any other rom for that matter?

not in early january. Havent tries recently.

Same problem. Can't find games I have previously purchased.

Not on the market for me either, but when pulling the apk files from my Nexus One and installing it on the G-Tab, every single one of them force closes on me. I wonder if the Xoom can play them, if it force closes on that, then at least we may know it's a processor issue.

I've gotten worms working fine on my G Tab.
Side loaded both the app, and the additional 40 MB of data that it copies to \sdcard\Android.
Just side loading the app wasn't enough, whenever I tried running it errored out saying device not compatible. So downloaded it on my droid and copied over.
Works really great on the 10" screen, controls take a little getting used to.

[Q] Nesoid Working, but no other emulators

I have Nesoid, Gameboid, GBCoid, Gensoid, and SNesoid on my NC, and only Nesoid will work. I have tried both off and on in "Compatability Mode" in Spare Parts, and they still won't work. It tries to open, waits 30 seconds, and says that the program is not responding. I copied the exact same files to my Incredible, and everything work there. I am running cyanogen 7 stable. Is there something I am missing? I have searched the forums and there doesn't seem to be a "how to" regarding emulators, unless it is so easy, there doesn't need to be one.

Running CM7, Nesoid, snes and n64oid all seem to work here. Using the 1.1 oc kernel.
Let me know if there is a particular setting you want me to check.

Hey do you play Blades of Steel on the NC??? I can't wait to get to grabbing that rom and playing it. I hope it looks good, plays good. I have Phiremod.

Did you have to adjust anything in spare parts? Maybe it is the specific ROMs I am trying to run. Everything installed just fine, but it refuses to run any of the ROMs. I have tried a half dozen and only the Nesoid ROMs will work.

I run gameboid with no issues using wiimote over bluetooth for control.
I actually bought nesoid and gameboid.

I got my wiimote working with no problems. Where are you getting the ROMs from? I used Romhustler, but maybe that is why it isn't working.
And I torrented all my emulators. Maybe I need to find something more current.

I am using ROM buddy to gather my roms. I didn't change any settings.
On a side note, are you guys actually using a Wii remote to play the games?

Yeah, it is pretty easy. Just make sure you have an actual wiimote. Originally I bought a knock off and it did not work. When I purchased an official wiimote, I got bluetooth running and used Wiimote Control to pair it (you are unable to pair in bluetooth settings, it asks for a password).

[Q] Nova HD

Has anyone got Nova working fullscreen on the NC? I played on an iPhone a while back and it was excellent. If so, could some kind person pm me a working apk?

Version 3.4.2 works nicely on stock 1.1.
Frank

it also works on cm7.. as well as most gameloft apps.

So how do you get it to fill the entire screen. I've got Nova 3.4.2 running but its only filling a small, phone sized portion of the screen.
EDIT: I tried unchecking Compatibility Mode in Spare Parts but although the game now fills the screen it still isn't right. The menu only renders a small part of the screen and when I get in a game a bit of the top is missing.

Mind sharing exactly which games (and their version numbers) that work on CM7? For the life of me, I could not get one single game from them to work. What am I doing wrong...

In my testing against CM7.0.2, all versions of N.O.V.A. HD _except_ 3.1.3 (which force closes) and 3.5.4 (which locks up with a white screen while trying to play video) work fine on the Nook. Ironically, the icon shows up correctly only with 3.5.4 (which again does not work).

Thanks! Interesting to note that version 3.1.3 for the Galaxy Tab doesn't work as that's the one I got. Would have thought similar A8 processor would be a good thing, maybe the slight gpu difference? Gonna test out a pull from a friend's Droid, hopefully that should work in my CM7 Nook.

shadowgun issues

Has anyone else had problems running Shadowgin on the tablet with gtacomb 3.3?

i just tried it on C+C rom, it runs but has graphic glitches. some objects and path graphics are missing, but otherwise it plays fines

Yep running flashback 10 and it wont dl game data past 25%. Same is happening on alot of HC phones/tablets. My friend is running a froyo rom on his gtab and he said it runs great.

I tried it on Flashback HC rom and it wouldnt work, i then tried it with C+C and it flows smooth except that alot of the background images are not there. I wish someone knew a fix for this. So in other words, the game is playable with C+C but alot of the graphics are missing.

I abandoned flashback and went back to mountain laurel and shadowgun runs perfectly without any glitches or missing graphics. This game is amazing! Best tegra 2 game yet! Also runs normal on brilliant corners.

Thanks for the info. i'll definetly try it on the mountain laurel rom.

Will not install past 25% on Gtabcomb 3.3. I think I've just about had it with the lack of a stable honeycomb rom on this tablet.

On Beasty and Clemsyn rom the game (version 1.0.2) can be installed without problems, but it's so f**king slow that there is no way to play to it.
I also think that some objects were missing, but I'm not sure because the gameplay was so slow that I couldn't even move around to confirm that.

Crashes on VEGAn 5.1.1
It installed fine and plays the cut scenes great but once the actual game starts and I start to move my player around and begin shooting my screen gets black for a few seconds and then the desktop appears without any of the icons/widgets on it and runs super sluggish until I reboot it. Sometimes it reboots itself but not always.
This 15 minute refund window sort of blows. Especially with games like this that you have to download additional content (250 MB for this one) that eats up that 15 minutes.
Tried it on CM7 and it crashed too. In fact, it didn't even get as far as when I ran it on VEGAn 5.1.1.

I was on gtabcomb 3.3, installation stopped after 25%, so downloaded sd data from external link but game always crashed upon loading after intro hd movie
then i tried tnt lite, game ws running fine but it had many glitches
then i installed mountain laurel, the game ran quite well and everything was perfect other than the fact that i cannot connect my external ps3 dualshock 3 to it
is there any way to connect it since the sixaxis controller app for gtablet is not able to connect my ds3 with gtablet, it was working fine with gtabcomb....

I tried it on Montain Lauren and I still have mising graphics. It sucks that even games developed for Tegra devices can' work well on our tablet.

That's what im running and I have no glitches or missing graphics. Im using the kernel that came with it. Did u put a different kernel on it? A couple times it ran choppy so I used the task manager and ended all tasks and then it ran smoothly.

im just gonna have to wait till someone updates my ROM.

Used Chainfire 3D with Plug-ins to make it work a bit
I have a gTab running VEGAn 5.1.1 and Shadowgun would crash/force-close/reboot my gTab as soon as gameplay would start. It would play fine for the cut scenes but as soon as the cut scene was finished and you were allowed to move your character around the game would quit.
I almost gave up on the game after I paid money for it but then read about this app in the Market called Chainfire 3D (there a free version and a paid version - the paid version is what I used to make this work). After I installed the free version first and then upgraded to the paid version and then installed the plug-ins (3 in all - I saved them to the root of my sdcard) and then went into the settings for it and selected Shadowgun in the list of Per-app OpenGL settings and unchecked the Use Default Settings and played around with the other settings to see if I could get this game to run. The ones I am using now are Reduce Texture Quality and Disable MapBuffer EMU.
After setting this up I was able to actually play a part of the first level without the game crashing. I've attached the plug-in files as they are a bit hard to find on the net (but you can find them via Google with a bit of luck).
Hopefully this helps some folks.
Update: here's a helpful link with instructions. http://brockhatfield.com/2011/11/01/tutorial-shadowgun-on-non-tegra/
Another Update: After messing with this for a while and actually trying to play through the first level I began to experience crashes and reboots again. So, I've sent the developers of both Chainfire 3D and Shadowgun and politely asked them for refunds. Hopefully they will agree.

I have no problems running it on mountain laurel but I know everyone has their own favorite rom. The only bad thing about chainfire is your losing out on some of the great HD & effects.

Success finally.

After reading your post I decided to make the leap from 1.1 bootloader ROMs to the 1.2 bootloader version ROM you mentioned. It was a real pain due to the fact that each time I installed the VTL Launcher my gTab crashed and force closed like crazy and wouldn't let me even get to the home screen.
I had to hard boot it each time (I tried this three times just to make sure that was the problem) and had to NVFlash to the original 1.1 bootloader rooted ROM and then using ClockworkMod I had to flash the latest stock version 3588 TnT Rom. This gave me the stock restore option which I then used to flash the latest Mountain Laurel ROM from Roebeet.
With Mountain Laurel I am able to play Shadowgun without any of the aforementioned issues and I didn't have to use any third-party apps like the Chainfire 3D app I mentioned in my earlier post. It's not as fast as VEGAn 5.1.1 but I guess we can't have everything.
Anyway, my only issue now is not being able to use the VTL Launcher with this ROM. I've read the posts on that other site I won't mention but I haven't had any luck. Every time I install VTL Launcher and restart my gTab it goes into force close mode and becomes unusable. I read that the ADW Launcher has the same issue with this ROM.
Aside from that problem I like this ROM. It runs everything I ran on VEGAn 5.1.1 and then some (Shadowgun).

Yeah, I love this tablet because it was one of the first out of the gate last year with the hardware that it comes with but I am with you on the frustration. Although I have to mention that I played the entire first level and I didn't notice any missing graphics. I am using the stock Mountain Laurel ROM without any custom CPU overclocking or modified kernels.
I already sold my other gTab and might finally decide to part with this one once I get a chance to play with the soon to be released Asus Transformer Prime with the quad-core chip.
Until then I still get plenty of use out of this one and I thank all of the modders, hackers, crackers, tweakers and coders that have put in all the effort and sharing the results they discovered and developed during the past year to make this tablet truly useful.

I´m new here, and i have a problem...
I have downloaded Shadowngun for my Sony Ericsson WT19i, and everything went well.
The main menu started up smotthly, and when I started a New Game for the first time, the intro showed. I watched the whole intro, and just when I was about to play, the game FORCE CLOSED for no reason! :<
Can ANYONE please help? I am dying to play it!

Gameboid

Anybody got gameboid working for D3? I have a gba-bios.bin and FireRed rom ready, but when I start up the rom, it automatically closes.

Gameboid runs perfect on my Droid 3. Although I don't play and therefore didn't try to load ANY Pokemon ROM.

Just tried to load Fire Red and it runs perfectly fine. Every GBA ROM that I tried to load runs fine on my Milestone 3 with Gameboid.

It's odd in the way it works. i had to download an extra file to get it to run(i just googled the issue) but it runs flawlessly now. i love the physical keyboard cause it's like playing on an old gameboy again try going in through your computer and making a separate folder for the games, and see if that helps any.
