hey guys this is the first thread I am starting so PLZ bear with me.
I have a galaxy ace rooted and cyanogen mod 7. I read somewhere about the possibility of playing Tegra games on ace and I have installed chain fire 3D but still am unable to run the games.
Can someone help me out or give a link to a thread where this might be explained.
seriously that never gonna happen.
even if u install chainfire or chainwater or whatever, try to run tegra game on adreno200 device is overkill.

a comprehensive guide to our cappy
*need to be rooted*
first download Chainfire3D (free) https://market.android.com/details?id=eu.chainfire.cf3d&feature=search_result
Chainfire3D Pro (paid) https://market.android.com/details?id=eu.chainfire.cf3d.pro&feature=search_result
(Pro offers OpenGL manipulation on a per-app bases and Fix market settings and support's his efforts)
after it installs open the app and download the CF3D driver
once installed reboot the device
then pick from the .zip files attached below (qualcomm for snap dragon game Nvida for tegra 2 games and ect and put the .zip on the SD
open the app and click install plugin
then go into default open gl settings
click use plugin and chose which plugin to use depending on the game
games that work Nvidia (pinball Hd, my first trainz little unstable, samurai vegeance ii and ripetide gp) qualcomm (backstab HD is kinda unstable)
games are attached below
P.S editing the build prop any way does not help to play these games

^Thats gonna get taken down. It shouldnt though since those developers wont sell a version for our phones.
There is a version of Pinball THD around that has the tegra check removed. I hoping this can be done to all THD games so I dont have to mess around with chainfire.
Devs need to realize tegra devices are maybe 5% of all android devices. And not all those users are going to buy games. So they are targeting maybe 3% of android users.
If people starting buy THD games to use with chainfire then devs will continue to make tegra only games.
I agree with you BenKranged i also think that google should step to the plate like they did with the carriers and the phone companys to stop this fragmentation and stop Nvida paying off the devs and the devs charging 6 to 7$ for games.
also i think terga devices make up less of the market
Nvida profts for this quater says that only 6.25% is the percentage of all tegra based products make up in there profits
Thx alot squishy for the detailed guide, I'm having succes with all of the games u posted,no lag at all to my surprise exept samurai II which doesnt even wanna load,the game starts but loading the missions does not so basicly menu browsing only.
P.S. I'm running Mosaic III D with xcal #15 vodoo enabled
Backstab anyone?
Anyone manage to get Backstab working? If so, how?
TIA, if not, no worries.

Hi,
Does anyone know if it is possible to play Backstab and N.O.V.A with the LG Optimus Black? I got the versions that are compatible with the Motorola Droid X that has the same CPU and GPU (PowerVR), but the games begins, and give the intro movies and then I get a white screen, in the case of N.O.V.A, or a black screen in case of Backstab. Any ideas? Or it is not possible to play these games?
Thanks.
I think you got the wrong sddata, I've got the same problem with Avatar Game, but when I change the sddata from another source, I got the game running well...
But I get the SDData from the wi-fi connection.
I've tried both of the game in my OBlack, I've used the sddata for powerVR, both of it doesn't work, it still want to download the sddata, so I dont know how the game suppose to work in OBlack... or Anyone have tried and worked?
Finally I can play Backstab on OB. Used version 1.2.3 for SGS.
Hey all if u want to play all hd gameloft games then try downloading the games for samsung galaxy s it ll work for sure ......................

I've been having trouble getting tegra games to show up and appear compatible for the longest time. Now I think I've partially done it. I've noticed I can finally see more gameloft titles such as NOVA 2. However, there are still games that aren't working. If I go to TegraZone and click on glowball or the Elder Scrolls V Skyrim live wallpaper it says my device is not compatible. Perhaps these are only for Tegra 3? Does chainfire 3d market fix give support for tegra 3 apps, or do we need to edit our build.prop for a tegra 3 device? If so, which device and what do we change?
There is a method you need to use to get them working on an imcompatible device, search the forums.
I've tried different methods... I've only been able to get as far as getting Tegra 2 games to work, that's why I'm asking after I've searched. I can't seem to bring up anything regarding Tegra 3 games.
Is Chainfire 3D supposed to make Tegra 3 games compatible or only up to Tegra 2?
Hello, everyone.
As you can see, I have Galaxy Ace S5830i. Today I decided to download GTA 3 (yes, download. Not buy) and try to run it on my phone. I know that on normal Ace, without "i", GTA 3 runs. But when I tried to run it on my Ace, with "i", black screen shows for a few seconds and returns to the screen with my apps. After when I rooted my phone, installed Chainfire 3D and tried to run GTA 3, the black screen shows but it doesn't disappear. When I press "setting button", below the screen and next to the home button, the phone vibrates for less than half a second.
In Google Play, the page with GTA 3 says that it's compatible with my phone, so I don't understand why it doesn't work... I downloaded .apk file and files to the SD card. I put the .apk file into the SD card and the folder "com.rockstar.gta3" into the "Android/data". I tried to run 1.2 and 1.3 version.
Any sugesstions? Also before installing Chainfire 3D I was trying to run the game. I was trying everything and still nothing.
Android version: 2.3.6
Sorry for any grammar mistakes. My English isn't perfect.
No one has found a way to run GTA3 on this device yet
Goole Play says it's compatible with this phone, so it should work... In theory.
It dosen't work, my friend buy it and he was so angry because the game dosen't work properly.

Thanks for replies, guys. I still don't understand why it doesn't work on this phone... There're almost no differences between S5830i and S5830, so it should work similar on both phones.
Thanks again.

There's a major difference. CPU and GPU are different, and come from a different company
The exterior is the same though.
Probably S5830i is very similar to Galaxy Y (this same GPU etc.) and on this phone GTA 3 runs fine. Now, I really don't understand why GTA 3 doesn't work on S5830i...

Agree, don't know why... but hope the next Vice City mobile works on this device :good:
Rockstar Games says that GTA 3 works only on Android devices with Tegra. A lot of devices don't have Tegra, but the game works fine on them. I hope Rockstar will do something about S5830i. Maybe not with GTA 3, but I really care about Vice City.
i was fooled too
this phone sucks without Divers...But I have some good news ... GPU drivers for the test .. and will be released soon ... then you will 100% be able to play GTA ... I even think that we could play a lot more games than regular Ace S5830
Wow, would be great. If GTA 3 will work smoothly, I hope that Vice City too.

We have been listening this GOOD NEWS for quite a time now......with crossed fingers
These drivers would be released by official Samsung developers or "third" developers?
Drivers will be released by Broadcom, which is the manufacturer of the processor in this phone
The CPU is cheaper...
I think this...in the s5830 the game is working with the CPU and the GPU... but the s5830i has a different CPU and GPU...and at some post i readed about the difference betwen this two decives...and the CPU of the s5830i is more cheaper than the s5830...i dont remember in what post but... i readed about it, here in the XDA... so may be the reason no?
Maybe it'll be interesting for someone -> http://support.rockstargames.com/requests/521313
I sent an email to Rockstar Support about GTA 3 on S5830i. Maybe the answer is helpful, maybe not, don't know. I didn't try.
I can't access it, what does it say?

Hi everyone I just sold my HOX and got myself Note and my question is about games especially nvidia games like Wild blood ,riptide Gp and stuff like that.
I've heard that i shouldn't install chainfire especially when i'm on android 4.1.2 because it will mess up my phone .
Is that true? If so what is the best way to play nvidia games on Note ?
I've just installed chainfire 3d and after reebot phone didn't "getup" i'm stocked on bootloop.
God damn how i suppose to install Chainfire 3d is there a special guide or some other crappy trick?

I had Wild Blood on my SGSII, which is Mali, not Nvidia ... ran fine. Haven't tried it on the Note yet (also Mali) but I will.
I've played riptide on my note natively
