I have chainfire3D installed on the TP under a2.1 (pro version) but am unable to download any of the drivers. From the looks of the search process it seems that chainfire is looking under palm for drivers. Is there a known way to enable nvidia and qualcomm drivers through the chainfire app or will I have to search for and sideload the drivers?
TIA

Search the plugins in Google. I have installed it today. Right now, I'm playing Shadowgun, and it's running fine. =)

I know this is a weird question but is it possible to play android games on pc with an emulator or something? I heard that there is an android emulator for pc so you can check out the os design and stuff like that but is it possible to install games (.apk) on it and play it?
Thanks for answers.
The Android SDK comes with an emulator, and you can use adb to install apps onto it, but it is incredibly slow!

theres an android build for x86 hardware, you can run it from a virtual machine and load apps into it.

Though that's likely to not work with some games - if they've used any C++ code, that'll be compiled for the Arm CPU rather than x86
Youwave for Android works great! My son wanted to play Robodefense on the PC so I found this little piece of software that's simple and uses .apk files I had on my G-Tablet.

I had high hopes for youwave after installing Android SDK and packages (They were really slow). Youwave seems nice and quick, but the first two apps I tried to play wouldn't work due to them not being supported by youwave
You can use Emulators to play games on PC
Some emulators come with inbuilt app store from which you can install and play the games.
For example Youwave. But they do have limitation like they cannot handle games that use ARM native code.
Also some famous games like fruit ninja , Angry Birds are available to be played online itself.

Hey
I tried everything.. including tegra driver using chainfire3d.
The best case was playing for 2 sec and then stuck.
thnks.
Anyone?
Anyone? pls...
Same for me. I installed chainfire and the nvidia plugin, but the game crashes after the menue.
Dont need a new thread for this...
ChainFire 3D plugin Games and Devices Compatibility list
[Android 2.1+][07.06.2011][v1.9] Chainfire3D [ROOT][OpenGL ES 2.0+]
Which Games Work and Don't Work. On samsung GS2
And as far as I know no one has gotten this game to work yet, you better wait for a fix from the developers or an update to chainfire3d.
But please take the discussion on one of those threads.
Minecraft was released for the Xperia play.
I haven't tried this out yet but I'm thinking:
build.prop edit
Chainfire 3D + Qualcomm
Wii Classic Controller remapped to Xperia Play
Hmm, having a problem getting it from the market. I have edited my build.prop to show up as "Sony Ericsson R800i" in the market, however the market still says the game is incompatible.
Is your phone ARMv7? I downloaded the apk of the demo and installed it, then, when I lauch the app it crashes. My phone is still an ARMv6 architechture ..

Good thing this is the Nook Color forums.....still.
I have the demo, it runs but the screen size is smaller than that of the Nook Color.
The classic controller works, though I can't figure out how, if possible, to remap the right analog stick to act as the xperia's right touchpad.
I can walk around the generated level and jump, build, etc, I just can't turn the camera so it's pointless.
No chainfire/build.prop edits here. (But I didn't get the .apk from the market.)
sinfulandroid.com has a modified version of the demo that loads.
ps3 sixaxis works, but same problem you have with no right stick.
Yeah I wanted to do this without having to goto a hacked APK.
There is a Wiimote app in the market that lets you remap all the Xperia Play controls. I was going to use that. Can't remember the name right now.
Also I am running 240 DPI (MIUI) so I think the assets will size properly
Yeah, I don't think I have a hacked .apk, but I've tried the "hacked" one and I see no difference. It might just be promotion for that site...
wiimotecontroller lets you map the xperia controls. Just not the xperia touchpads as far as I can tell.
the app I have is called wiimotecontroller and its free on the market. good luck on getting it to work ill experiment a bit too
EDIT: whoops, I didn't see the post above me...

I'm hopeful, but disappointed. Just got the Sixaxis to work on the nook and started walking in Minecraft and got all excited, then realized I couldn't turn. Someone here has got to be smart as **** and be able to make the touchpad a mappable an option in either app.
Hey, thanks for the videos. Always helpful. You should do a vid covering some of your setting and apps. Not to mention the name of that wallpaper you had going.

GREAT vid! almost makes me want to go ahead and put CM on my TouchPad instead of waiting for beta.
Out of curiousity, would this be the equivalent of a fresh install or would you have to go Alpha > Alpha 1 > Alpha 2?

As long as you dump all of the files into the cminstall folder, this can be a fresh install without having to go through the prior versions first.

I have not seen any advantage to the chainfire drivers in terms of performance.
Wondering if anyone knows how to get Settlers HD running on CM9. Tried digging around here and some other forums but haven't come up with much

Have you tried changing the build.prop to another device?
Which device would you go with? I was thinking Samsung galaxy tab but idk.

a gameloft game? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318239 might help. i installed some gameloft games recently on my touchpad recently and got messages about how the device is not supported and i need to ask for a refund. i havent tried the chainfire 3d method yet. its a shame they dont just let the games play and if they dont work, they dont work.
Working for me with a couple of quick fixes
Managed to get this game going on the touchpad However i should point out despite its name it isn't genuine HD or fully tablet optimised yet. Of course that's the case for this game on all tablets and it runs fine regardless but I just thought I'd let you know.
Anyway to get it to work an Android touchpad first set the device make and model in your build.prop to a gameloft supported device (I used the Samsung SGH-T989 because it has the same CPU and GPU as the TP) and then install the game but do not open it yet. Before running the game install chainfire3d and set it to the POWERVR plugin. Now when you run the game it should download the sd data and once completed it should work properly.
Chainfire fixes the graphics (without they are all white) and the build.prop mod fakes your device model so you can download the sd data for gameloft games (otherwise you get an unsupported device error).
From what I've seen on the net you can also install the webos version of Settler's HD on the touchpad which also runs fine (although again Scaled graphics rather than actual HD textures).
