Shadowgun - DL failure - Nook Color Themes and Apps

I set Chainfire 3d to these settings for Shadowgun.
In Chainfire3d: Default OpenGL settings
Reduce texture quality
Reduce texture size
Disable MapBuffer emu
The download of the additional files gets to 100% and then it crashes. Any idea on how I can get it to finish?
I have it on my XOOM, where in its file structure can I just copy it over to my Nook? Thanks.

I just copied over the entire com.madfingergames.shadowgun folder from my SD card on my phone and put it on the sd card for my nook. After doing that I started the app, it downloaded past 100 percent, but started right up. Plays perfectly so far.

You guys got shadiwgun working on this wow make me regret giving my nook to my wife and getting a Acer iconia tab

Mine works until its loading the first level. I can see the intro flawlessly, but when it finishes or is skipped I crash after a while in the loading screen. I don't get FC it just got back to previous screen (Chainfire)

it plays. very stuttery and jerky past the first level, but it still plays. When I first bought the game i couldn't get it to play but if you know how to search right, you can find a version floating around that has been optimized for none dual core devices.
That's the best I can give you. I paid for the game so i won't direct anyone to a pirated copy, but there is one floating out there that doesn't need tegra.

I tried the low version and still got same result. Maybe there's something wrong with my sd cache files since it kept freezing during the download...

Here is what I did to get it to work:
1) Get ShadowGun v1.0 and SD files
2) On Chainfire3D go to default open gl settings
3) Set plugin "NVIDIA", check "reduce texture size", "disable mapbuffer emu" and "hide cf3d id" (check reduce texture quality if you want better performance)
4) Run game.
5) ???????
6) Yeah... Profit!

How do I get it from the market is says my nook color is not compatable?

The market version isn't going to work. You have to google for it.

Where do u get the plugin from? Can anyone help?

google "chainfire 3d plugins". you should be able to find it. By the way, the plugins are zip files, once you've extracted them from the file you download just put them on the root of your sd card and install from the program.

I have tried several times, but it will not find my plugin file. I downloaded the correct one and used drop box to put it on my nook. Can anyone help thanks

The files:
libGLEMU_QUALCOMM.zip
libGLEMU_POWERVR.zip
libGLEMU_NVIDIA.zip
need to be on the root folder of your SDcard.
Don't forget that you need to "install plugins" before "Use plugin/Load a plugin"

Igot that done, but now it bombs out after it gets to 99% of the first download. Any suggestions?

I had it bomb on all of the downloads. It you keep trying, they usually download. Did you try installing the sd files? When I did it caused me to freeze on the downloads. Keep trying, took me awhile... Nothing like downloading til 99% then freezing.. drove me nuts

well I got everything installed, and the game seems to run smooth, but my controls aren't on the screen.....

-_- Are you kidding me..
Read my graphically intensive games thread (includes Modern Combat 3, NOVA 3, Dead Trigger, Shadow Gun, and Mass Effect Infiltraitor) for any games info and how it works, why it works, and how to do it yourself. No Chainfire is needed. Shadowgun and Dead Trigger can even be downloaded from the Play Store. Im not trying to sound like an ass, but make sure you SEARCH before you post. I had to learn it the hard way xD
All the stuff in the thread is CM7 and CM9 compatible.

[Q] NOVA on CM7

I'm running CM7 nightly build and I can't get NOVA from Gameloft to run. Force closes right at launch every time. I've purchased the game for my Incredible, and pulled the download files from there and put them in sdcard/gameloft/games/nova but it's still force closing. Tried rebooting, toggling compatibility mode, reinstalling, nothing seems to work. I'm not opposed to re-buying the game to get a working APK but I haven't been able to find anything through extensive searching except people saying they've gotten it to work, and a couple Youtube videos showing the game running, but I have yet to find a single person explain how they got it working. Can anyone help?
I have version 3.4.2 and its running fine. Didnt do anything special to get it working.

some games do that when you are trying to run them off a sdcard. go to settings->applications->NOVA->move to phone. and see if that makes a difference.
When it comes to gameloft games, it has to be just the right version for the Nook color, or it won't work. I would try what the other 2 post suggested, and if that doesn't work, I believe there is a gameloft thread with the "working" version numbers for what apk you need.
I've got v.3.4.2 running on CM7 just fine. The menus and loading screen are small, but the game is full screen... now if only I could get other gameloft games to freakin' work!!!
Is it slow for you guys during heavy fight scenes? because it is for me

[Q] phone rebooting while installing hd games

hey guys, my optimus one keeps rebooting whenever i try to install an hd game like air attack hd, drift mania hd etc ..while reckless racing and some others work fine ..has anyone else faced this problem? ..am on megatron v1 and franco kernel v19.2
HD is a suffix that doesn't really mean anything in this context... it just looks cool.
When exactly does the restart happen? When you start the install, after a while, when you're done and launching the game for the first time...?
What's your system like? Do you use anything like DarkTremor? Do you install to internal memory or SD? Have you connected your phone to your PC and checked if there are any leftovers in .android_secure? Do you have ADB ready? Have you cleared your cache?
air attack hd is not compatible for the p500

it'll be better if your will gonna tell us how to clean cache' how to delete left overs in android secure..

specifically what hd games are you talking about?
honestly i can't remember THOSE HD GAMES that caused the rebooting..
i remembered just one..
GuerillaBob.. and mostly Gameloft HD Games..
that's all i can remember
The specifics would be:
1. Connect to your PC, check the SD card for errors, then check if the list of files in the .android_secure matches what your phone reports to be installed on SD.
2. To clear the cache, restart into recovery mode, then select "clear cache"
All of this probably won't help with most Gameloft titles though... they are simply not designed for your hardware (and as far as I remember not sold to people with such devices). Obviously that still shouldn't crash the installer (though it is expected to crash the game), but my guess is that the games are simply too big.
guerrilla bob is not even supported on our phone so theres no way you could've downloaded it from the market. WAREZ
i downloaded guerrilla bob from some site and installed it..it runs for a few minutes then closes automatically..but, that's another matter...

it's overclocked to 748mhz..am on megatron v1..i know not all games are compatible with our phone but then it should give some error or something while installing..but the installation goes on forever and then the phone reboots..samurai vengeance, air attack and drift mania are the ones am talking about..

does the game size matter?..nova is running fine even though it's bigger in size than the ones i am talking about..
Let's put it this way: if a game is big, it usually has a more complex structure inside the APK as well and that can cause issues... at least that's what it looks like to me, but I haven't worked my way through that part of the Android source yet. Of course, it should not happen, but who knows what the malware you've downloaded is trying to do. Just stick to the market, for your and our sake, which is BTW also the component that's responsible for "not compatible" messages. APKs themselves don't have any concept of "compatibility".
in regard to the size of the game' i think that doesnt even matter.. i have a NOVA also running on my phone and it works fine on stock 2.2 rom ~
about guerillabob.. i managed to play this game that's when i was on custom rom (void #forever) OC'd @ 768mHz..
HD Games TIP : tried to find APK that is running on ARMV6.. (GuerillaBob for ARMv6) coz i think the APK's that you downloaded are not working on AMRv6 that's why when we tried to install the game' it reboots our phone automatically.. we all know that phone has their different specs' hardware and limitations
HOPE IT HELPS ^_^

GTA 3 only works on cm7 v2.1 for me.....

any ideas/suggestions to get it to working on v3.0 and/or v3.5?
everytime i boot it up on 3.5 it will load up but right until the car is on fire (beginning of the game) then it will freeze up and will be a mix of the splash screen and the car on fire
on 3.0 it will boot up and will finally goto the car being on fire, but then it will just sit there froze up on the car burning
any ideas please?
Maybe a corrupt data download? Try deleting the game data and try again.
I'm running 3.5 OC'd to 1782 and it runs without doing anything special.
is there a folder on the 'sd card' or you mean deleting the 'normal' way with clear app data?

I'm running 3.5 with the HTC Sensation version of the game and I enabled the high quality graphics with that gta3.set file, no problems at all. Runs smooth.
Lights don't work still, but I'm looking on a fix for that.

Can you explain how you changed the gta3.set file? I've got a hex editor but can't find which values to change...
GTA 3 is working fine with Alpha 3.5.
I done nothing with GTA 3 setting.
I just install the apk and download data with Wifi !
HP Touchpad GTA3 SIXAXIS
Here is a link to my post with the files to set up sixaxis with the HP Touchpad.
Also you do not need to redownload the data , you can go inbetween both setting by just replacing the .set file. Hope this helps!

[Q] CM9 GTA 3 - Whats my deal...

I think this may be my first post on XDA. I roam XDA, Rootz, and AC all the time but rarely find a time that I can contribute to others so I generally keep to myself.
Absolutely love my TP running CM9 alpha0.6...
From time to time I have issues with getting apps to work. Normally I can figure out a way to get the app side loaded and working but this has not been the case for GTA. When the app first hit the market I paid for it and downloaded. I have always got the same message after opening the game.
"Unfortunately, GTA III 10-YEAR ANNIVERSARY has stopped."
Obviously i have downloaded the data files from a site and put in the correct folder on my "SD card"..still no luck.
Maybe I have downloaded the wrong data .rar files? Which ones are working for others?(I read HTC Sensation files work in other threads)Where did you download them?
Are there any changes I need to make in order for the game to work?
Any suggestions would be helpful...i have wasted a lot of time on this.
Was helped by another member. Went through the market to update the app. was able to download the files and play afterwards.
I have the same issue with the Madden 12 app. It starts downloading some 300MB update, but then just quits and tells me to try later.

Since I never wiped my SD card when upgrading from CM7 to CM9 all I had to do was install GTA and it launched using the files downloaded while on CM7. On CM7 I had downloaded the files on wifi, not sure if this works in CM9.
You can find the files already downloaded in an archive on the internet, just pick the correct GPU brand and it should work if you can't download on the Touchpad.
I have download the data direct from Wifi with no problem at all !
If you have save data, you can backup the file from "/sdcard/Android/data/com.rockstar.gta3ger/files/GTA3/GTA3sf*.b" before you re-download the data.

Real Racing 2 on CM7

I had Real Racing 2 on my rooted NT prior to CM7, but can't figure out how to install after flashing CM7. Tried putting the apk in system/app and data/app and both result in failed installation. Any ideas? Maybe permissions are off?

That is a good question.
I couldnt' get asphalt 6, modern combat 3, and 9mm to play.
They would validate files after install but would force close when starting the games.
Several other games I couldn't even get to install and would get the install failed prompt.
One of the only graphic intense games I could run was shadowgun.

Have you tried installing them from the Market? idk if they're market apps or not or how you acquired them or whatever.
Try popping out the SDcard as I mention here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1484272

The game doesnt show up in the market on the NT, so I swapped the apk over from my phone, which worked prior to CM7.
Tried the SD card method and it said it installed successfully but when I try to load the game it just goes to a black screen...forever

When you were on Stock, did you do the build.prop change that was posted?
No build.prop changes the first time, just copied apk from phone to tablet and installed.

Haha, if I had a nickel...
The CM7 downloads were taken down due to several bugs, including one that nearly fully bricked the NT.
I have been monitoring the CM7/9 progress from day 1 and downloaded the Alpha the morning it was released before they took it down.

I have Asphalt 6: Adrenaline on my Captivate. It runs ok usually, but some times it gets very choppy and unplayable. I want to try it on my NT. I could not find it on the Market of Amazon App Store so I used Titanium Backup and Dropbox to back up, move the files, and restore. The app shows up on the NT but when you I try to open it, it says that it is not compatible and that I should request a refund.
My NT is on 1.4.0, rooted (Nook&Zergy) with OTAs blocked.
Has anyone figured out how to get this game working?
