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.
Hey guys
Do any of you experience lag/sluggish performance in games ? I recently got my Titan and I only had a chance to try angry birds and it wasn't at all smooth.
I disabled the SRS sound but it didn't help.
Any ideas ?
EDIT: Well,it's not laggy TBH,but not as smooth as my previous iPhone 4 which I think is because of the GPU.
I know the iPhone 4's GPU is stronger but shouldn't games like Angry birds run maybe a little more smoothly ?
Try closin some apps or redownloading the apl

I closed all apps and tested but it didn't change anything.
Will re-download it but I don't think that's going to make any changes either.
I just downloaded the game and played for about 10 min and it ran smooth here. I also tried hydro thunder which seems like a more gpu intensive game and no probs. can u download hydro thunder and see if you notice any problems?
Will do.
However, I tested NFS and it ran butter smooth.
Ok,tested Hydro and it worked perfectly.The graphics were just amazing !
Currently,Angry birds and Fruit ninja aren't that smooth,they aren't lagy but I tested Angry birds on a symbian device(Nokia C7) and it worked flawlessly.
And I remember that when I first played angry birds/fruit ninja on the iPad,they both performed pretty much like Titan(not so smooth) but after updates,they both worked great.
So I guess,it's software issue,thoughts ?
Ok so tried doodle jump too and it ran great. Maybe a tad slower than the iOS version but it was barely notable.
Did you try disabling the sound enhancer "fix"?

Aren't we just talking about the 30fps cap? I think that's all it is. They need to re-release at 60fps, though I don't know if first-gen devices can handle that though it's just a side scroller, not a big deal. And I'm sure 2nd gen devices can.
Maybe but how come iPad has the same issue at first ? Did it have 30 fps cap and then when they updated the game,they removed it ?
Hi guys, the game works fine for a couple of mins, until the phone starts heating and well , it starts lagginggggg. Multiplayer works fine, but single player is just killing me. Problems only occur when phone starts to warm up. Anyone facing this issue?
More info : Strafing and scrolling "view" seems to be lagging, as though frame-rate just dropped or something. I've reinstalled and uninstalled, downloaded data and still, the same outcome. Multiplayer is as smooth as
Please tell me this isnt just meeee
im alone?????
Ive only played the first mission. it does not lag or overheat like you mention,although i do notice the frames drop in some areas becoming slightly laggy.online gaming is great.i hate that the game crashes and restarts sometimes in online play
Have some apps running in the background?
I also experience UHT moment when i play gameloft games.. but theres no continuous lag, only stutters on some area..
You may also need to check that your governor wasn't on conservative..

Got no framerate issue here. Try looking for a newer version.

Hmm, im on the latest version. 1.0.1. What im getting is the BLURISH effect when scrolling views. Im pretty sure its a framerate drop. Ive got MC3 running alone, no background apps. Its literally killing me. Ive tried 5 different kernels, and Im sure im not overclocking or underclocking the cpu. Im using stock rom though. Would cyanogenmod help improve the gameplay? Any good roms that still preserve the samsung qwerty keyboard?
I have this issue too. I have a Samsung Galaxy SII GT-I9100, Noble Black, 2.3.5, stock ROM, kernel XWKJ1 (also stock), NO ROOT
At some point (fire or many trees or something) the game is lowering the FPS. I didn't noticed that for example on Sensation XL (which has 1.5 singlecore and even higher screen resolution than my phone has) and i didn't saw a single lag.
I made a video about this problem and posted it on youtube here it is:
I suppose this problem is related to my stock ROM or even my stock kernel... something similar is happening with backstab but there it's not that annoying since it's not a FPS game

YES YES Im not alone. Thats the problem. I wonder if its due to the stock rom...
Got the game no issue here. im rooted on slimrom with siyah kernel, not overclocked but undervolted so it doesnt heat up so much. Fyi shadow gun is a really good game as well
looks like an iphone but powered by android baby!!!!
No issues here.
Well,it even happens on my device,which is overclocked,both the CPU(1600MHz) and the GPU(400MHz).It seems to only happen when there is smoke on the screen.Doesn't happen in any other case.
Feel like flashing a new rom. Gonna get a usb jig first...
Btw, any roms to recommend?
@androidkid:slimrom running touchwiz?

Because it has another much weaker GPU, therefore it has much lower graphical quality settings. It's like playing on Low and the GSII on very high.

Well,even if it is so,it's unacceptable,as it's definitely a fault on Gameloft's part.The game is,once again like other Gameloft titles,more or less badly coded.It uses too much GPU.I can play ShadowGun with 16x MSAA(Using CF3D) for hours and the phone just gets warm,while I can't play MC3 for nearly as long and the device burns.Before anyone tries to say that it's because MC3 has so super awesome graphics,it's not the cause.Our GPU doesn't overheat,even when overclocked.Excessive heat is only generated by the CPU.So,try playing ShadowGun and MC3 with 500MHz or 800MHz CPU.ShadowGun still plays as awesome as before,while MC3 lags.
We should contact Gameloft me thinks...

Try the map where your using a minigun and escaping with a truck/car (dont remember the map name)
the fps drops from stable 60 to under 20 impossible to, win the level through with hard
Hmm which governor are you using? i just know that lulzactive is kinda bad if it comes to gaming. try out some stock governors like ondemand, conservative or performance.

Now play GTA3.
Hello,
I just got myself an Atrix 4G and i'm looking at the roms right now. I'm interrested in CM10... seems to not have many bugs, but i wonder: what is the performance in games? I see it have no HW aceleration, so i wonder if it matters in the final product?
Anyone using it could let me know? Thanks in advanced
Im not much a gamer, but I have tested Angry Birds (just for test) and it has some lags.
But remember that CM10 is in alpha stage, and soon (I hope) we're getting nvidia/motorola drivers.

Huummm... guess i will wait untill Moto release the oficial ICS then, so drivers community will have access to the drivers and stuffs i guess. Thanks
great, that's response was useful for me too.
I'm running Paranoid Android 1.9.5b (based on jokersax's CM10 build) and games typically work fine. On rare occasions I have to turn the screen off and back on to fix multitouch issues but I'm pretty sure it's fixed now. There doesn't seem to be any issue with jitter or lag in games though.

I've had another idea relating to the Galaxy Player 5 and 5.8. I've been using ICS ROMs for around a 2 months now and in terms of UI they are very nice and smooth and I don't want to be rude but in terms of gaming performance, that's not so good. Even Gears And Guts has real issues. Now I might be wrong but is this because of hardware acceleration? If so couldn't you take the files of the Galaxy Player 5.8 and put them on the Player 5.0 to make it work? As far as I know (Which isn't that far) hardware acceleration isn't like cameras and stuff were every device has a different camera and so on. Isn't hardware acceleration a sort of universal thing? But then I may be wrong and talking complete rubbish.

I know kernel modification is required. What we need to make hw acceleration work is to upgrade module, in both rom & kernel

Sorry but this does not belong in the development section.Questions and other general posts belong in the general section. I post this not to be rude but to inform you because this is the second post that you posted in development and we would like to keep the section as clean as possible with roms. Thank you

Gaming has apsolutly nothing to do with HW acceleration ..ICS on 5.0 and with out HW A. is much better for gaming then GB ..because ALL GAMES use Open GL ..i have gta 3,max payne ,real racing 2 ,nova 3,fifa 2012.. and they all work very very good..no single game use HW acceleration and only app that is using is chrome..and of course for video decoding witch is decoded on CPY with out HW.
And off course its not that simple,you need kernel 3.x and this not for development thread.
I'm really sorry about my posting errors. I will remember in future. And Nova 3 is OK but gears and guts which isnt very intensive at all really is almost unplayable. I don't get it
Even minecraft runs extremely smooth, and that's an intensive game.

I also have Minecraft full and that runs buttery. But Nova 3s FPS is playable but not buttery. And gangster Rio was really quit playable for 30 secs and then it lagged really bad. But its not just gaming. The You Tube app requires hardware acceleration to play HD.

Have you tried a RAM Manager (or any app that has a function to auto-kill background processes)? Most of them will let you make a white list of apps that you do not want the RAM Manager to kill. Although it's not the fastest option, you could also try using Titanium to run a batch cache clear of all the apps except your games. Or, you could try tweaking your overclock settings, but you will definitely sacrifice your battery for this option.
Hmmm. I haven't found any app that auto kills apps but I have been looking for one. I did try RAM expander but it said my ROM wasn't supported. I'm running rj's custom kernel at 1.2ghz.

Try this one. The UI is extremely sexy and very user friendly. It has simple settings where you can set up various aspects of the app, particularly auto-kill.
