[Q] Nvidia Tegra Zone Hack - G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has Anyone got TegraZone games to play on ANY ROM for the G tablet?

I'm running Fruit Ninja THD, Samurai 2: Vengence, and Dungeon Defenders: First Wave all on my gTab which is running VEGAn 5.1.1 without any hacks or mods beyond the rom itself.

They all run fine here..running Calkulin rom....no tweeks/hacks needed.

Good to know. Thanks much guys.
I wonder if any Ginger ROMs can run them. I would guess not without hardware acceleration though.

They all work fine on TNTLite 4.40. No hacks needed.

somebody help me, I can't download any games from tegra zone (not even free ones), it says "the requested item could not be found". I'm running vegan tab 5.1 beta. Is there any ways to fix it like we did with the android market

They run fine. Hardware acceleration only applies to videos. Not 3D rendering.

Got more to back up that "BS" opinion? Has anyone complained of poor play on CM7 or Vegan Ginger? The games play fine for me on CM7.0.3.
Are you having trouble getting them to show up in the Market? Because that's a different question.

@spammhead
For myself and a friend (3 tablets - one from Sears, one from electroniccrap.com, and one from Woot!) we found that in Hero of Sparta, Hawx, Quadrant tests, and a few other games - the ones mentioned stand out the most in my memory, would not display all textures is maps unless we were running a FroYo build with full acceleration. I think Sandstorm was another that had trouble.

Riptide GP and Bang Bang Racing THD both work perfectly for me on CM 7.0.3.

While I would have put it more diplomatically you are correct. While 3D games "work" on GB roms they do not have the same visual texture as when running on one of the popular FroYo roms. I have two gTabs one running VEGAn 5.1.1 and the other running CyanogenMod 7.0.3. They both have their uses.

I noticed no change in 3d textures on games like Dungeon Defenders and Samurai II when moving from 2.2 to 2.3 (CM7, nightly 85). The only issues were with the videos for Dungeon Defenders, but those are all resolved now. Riptide runs perfectly and looks just like it does in Youtube videos I've seen of it, so I'm not sure what you're talking about as far as different visual textures. I think the only hardware acceleration that's missing is in high def videos, but OC'd at 1.4, software does everything I can throw at it fine in Moboplayer.
EDIT: Added a screenshot from Riptide. Does it look different than it does on 2.2? Please post a screenshot from the same map (Twister) so I can compare.
EDIT again: Added more screenshots. Samurai II, Pinball HD, Dungeon Defenders. I want to note that in all these games, I was more interested in taking the screenshot than I was in playing. I don't suck *that* bad.

OK, so you may be missing some fine texturing, but gameplay is not affected enough to merit a warning against buying the game to play on Gingerbread.

If I'm missing texturing, I'm not seeing it. Otherwise, with the currently nightly of CM7, the video issues (like the opening video in Dungeon Defenders) that appear in Vegan Ginger aren't present, so yeah, I think it's fair to say that the "Ginger isn't good for games" factor is wrong.
The only thing that drives me nuts about CM7 right now is the boot times.

after having played many tegra games on froyo and gbread, I have never noticed texture differences or anything else. the latest libraries in cm7 and aosp work wonderfully for everything I have tried.

Tegra Zone loaded and Dungeon Defender works on (gasp) stock 3588.

Hi to all. Guys, what about tegra games on Honeycomb? On my G Tablet with [ROM][BL1.1] GtabComb alpha1.6 for Bootloader 1.1 Gtablet these games didnt work. When I tried install any tergra games I get error.
Any ideas?
P.S. Sorry for my English, I am from Russia.

Does DUNGEON DEFENDERS work with your custom rom?

Hi guys, I can get dundef to work reasonably well on some 2.2 roms....but it completely fails on other roms.
Could you please reply if you have it running well, or at all on your X10 and with what ROM and game settings?
Thanks.
Which 2.2 are you using? on my x10i it doesn't run, on all roms :-(
Perhaps it's a prob of my sd-card ..... only "class2-16gb"

Dungeon Defenders: First Wave Deluxe HD content for Tegra 2 powered devices!
its for nvidia tegra 2 devices the x10 doesnt have the right hardware to play it !
@dartsma
X10 obviously doesn't have Tegra 2, but every version of Dungeon Defenders worked well on my phone with Z's Froyo Beta 4. It would by probably even faster if I had better SD card (I've got 8GB class 2 righ now). The last verion I tried was 5.02, but I haven't noticed any significant improvement in performance nor anything else since version 2.05 (or whatever it was). But it's quite a good game and it may be fun to play it online.
Worked perfectly when I was using it I'm on beta3

Im running beta 4 rom, and Ive succed to run that game. It just take one hell of a time to install the game! Didnt like the game though

Actually it can run very well on x10 hardware, just that some roms run it better than others.... and some can't run it at all. I have it running on beta 4 2.2 rom, MIUI rom won't start the game as it doesn't recognise the game licence, and 2.3 roms force close the game instantly.
I got dungeon defenders runnning on custom 2.1 rom

[Q] Game FPS stutters

Guys and gals,
after upgrading to atrix GB (on all roms this happens) certain games seem to stutter every once in a while. Fruit ninja thd stutters on 3+ fruit cuts, and moonchaser stutters periodically. I don't play too many games so those are the two I noticed, but has anyone else had this problem?
If so, any ideas on a fix?
Cheers

Yep, I can confirm that I am also having the Fruit Ninja THD stuttering problem.
Ironically, BackBreaker THD and Samurai II Vengeance (both of which have much better 3D graphics) don't stutter at all.
Funniest thing! - Fruit Ninja non-Tegra version stutters as well!!!
Fruit Ninja devs probably didn't test the game on 2.3.4 and there's some kind of incompatibility issue.
Btw. Did you try the CM7 beta yet? Could you test if it stutters there too?
I'm currently on the beta and it is still stuttering, cheers

Months later, the problem is there.
Honestly, the only game that really noticeably stutters for me is Fruit Ninja... And i play many many games with good graphics (Samurai Venegance II, Backbreaker, etc).
Both THD and non-thd versions of Fruit Ninja stutter on Gingerbread, Froyo works fine.
My guess is that either Motorola's 2.3.4 is poorly coded or Fruit Ninja is poorly coded.
try dead space xD
Jusz tries both versions and they ran pretty smooth...

Tegra powered games not available

so I wanted to try that sprinkle game, but there's no download link in the market under the game. So I tried dling the tegra app and half the games I go to click on don't have a download link?
anyone else with issues? the only thing I can think of is my build prop is modified, but some tegra games show up like the Riptide GP I was able to install and download
you on honeycomb? its a 3.0 and up game.
works fine on mine running flashback
I was having the same problem with sprinkle. I wonder if they will run on froyo at all? Im on brilliant corners because I want the hardware acceleration. Maybe I should try a HC rom to buy it then back it up and go back to BC and try it.

[Q] Why do games perform so poorly?

I've played Fruit Ninja THD, Modern Combat 3 and Grand Theft Auto 3 but the framerate is really poor. Id say itsmonly running at 15-20 FPS. Why is this? I love games and this tablet but if this is the case then I'll be quite disappointed.
(Rooted and Running the Galaxy Task ROM, btw)
same here! The framerate is very poor when playing gta 3
I haven't experienced any problems yet, played GTAIII & Fruit Ninja THD (and many more), perfectly smooth... You could try to reflash your rom, or maybe overclock..
ps running Galaxy Task 10

Other games seem perfectly fine actually, just the heavy games seem to have trouble running. It's a shame, I was looking forward to playing GTA3 with my PS3 controller at at least 25 FPS but oh well
Perhaps background processes push CPU usage over the edge for you. I don't have GTA 3 but fruit ninja is flawless on my tab.
reflash...should help. i'm on stock and both games work at maybe 40-50 FPS? anyway its really smooth. (i'm on stock btw)

Reflashed, fruit Ninja is fine now but GTA 3... Still pretty laggy, especially if rain falls. I already removes the audio folder so it runs flawlessly with no audio and while its not raining, but still I damn well miss audio. If I knew how to modify the gta3.set I'd just disable rain, lights, shadows, draw distance, etc... I'm more concerned with performance that graphics.

[Q] has anyone gotten gta3 to work on cm9?

I can get it too turn on but it super lags... I saw a post saying it works tho
I heard a report in the CM9 Rom post that said it runs smoothly.
Sure you installed the latest one? Or because there is a lack of hardware acceleration, it is laggy and that guy lied.
I saw the same thing....he lied LOL,
All other games work fine though I'm on alpha 3 the newest one
I tried it, I got shuttering glitches... similar with angry birds 2d graphics. I don't think the hw ac is working properly yet.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
My angry birds works flawless I just checked it now....I know hardware acceleration is messed up but do
You have the 2d hw acceleration box checked cause I do
awh!! GTA is working fine for me, both joker and alphaomega ICS.
cheerz!!
My phones not all slow or clogged up with junk I was getting over 7000 on antutu so idk what's up, all other games work like real racing 2 and modern combat 3...this sucks I don't wanna got back to Cm7 and I'm not
I have the same problem.
We have to wait for hardware acceleration
