Trouble with games on CM7 - Nook Color Themes and Apps

Hi there,
I'm running CM7 on a Nook oc'd to 1.2 and running the InteractiveX governor. I can play some games, but not the good ones that everyone else seems to be getting to run. I'm getting the following:
1) Gangstar: blank screen,
2) NFS Shift: stuck at loading screen,
3) Skateboard Party: crash at start up,
4) N64oid (Mario): blank screen,
5) GTAIII: Needs additional files error (though I've placed the files in the right place on the SD card.)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

gangstar and NFS shift can be very tricky to get working. What version numbers are you using? Are they cracked or retail?

GTAIII is version 1.0 and Gangstar is version 3.1.4. I'm running the latest nightly of CM7. I tried a different version of NFS now, and it opened, but all the graphics are washed out white. Oh glory!

washed out white graphics typically indicate a gpu incompatibility. The version you got is probably for a qualcomm or tegra device.
Gangstar: west coast hustle 3.4.0, 3.4.7 are known to work on the nook color.
NFS Shift 1.0.4 and 1.0.6 are known to work on the nook color.
can't help you with GTA3, I didn't install it.
if you need version #s for any of the other gameloft games, check the link in my sig.

Oh ok, thanks

[Q] PSX4droid for wildfire

Hi, I'm new here, and I just wanted to ask if anyone has tried running PSX4droid on a stock or rooted wildfire.
Sorry if this was a question that was already asked before
thanks for any future response
i remember reading this thread a while back but never got round to trying it -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=963395
not sure how good it would be with on screen controls on such a small screen.
If you have luck with it let me know.
ps. you dont say whether your rooted and rom'd but it looks like for best performance you
wanna be on cm7 or similar.not sure how well stock would fair?
EDIT: NVM, Already linked above.
Thanks for the quick response
I'll check it out right now and probably post later.
I did try the Nesoid on my rooted wildfire running at 691 mhz and it works great without any problems. And I just wanted to see if it could run something much better than NES games.
I tried it yesterday and loaded Final Fantasy 5. After choosing the ROM, it just showed a black screen and kicked me back to the selection screen.
More info on this would be nice
Trying the fPSe right now.. but whenever I choose the app, It just shows a black screen, doesn't even let me choose the BIOS or anything..
might try again a while later, but no progress for now. Guess I'm stuck with NES games for a while
By the way I'm using CM7 RC2 and running at 691mhz, if that helps...

Follow below link for FPse PS1 emulator:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=963395
In FPSE, you can directly run the PS1 game (either ISO or BIN), but all games does not play. You need to try multiple games. Anyway, in the link, I have already mentioned some games which I tried.
yeah.. I guess I have to try a couple more games..I tried to play Final Fantasy 5 on it and thought "hey, If Final Fantasy 7 worked on it, I bet 5 would work"
Guess I'd better try more ROMS.. Thanks for the help guys..

Gameloft Games working version #s (now with Market Versions!!!)

No more scouring the darkened alleys of the internet looking for that one version of A6HD_Galaxy_r4z0r_v1.9.4.2.5.apk that will install and load without crashing back to earth once it figures out that your android tablet is just an ereader in disguise. With IMEI patch, build.prop set to galaxy tab, LCD density to 160 and you can download your games from market like a regular joe. Also they seem to all download data, run without CF3D and are more or less guaranteed not to contain malware/keyloggers or cause your ISP to send you a cease and desist letter.
If you can't get the market route to work, make sure to pay for the apps through HERE(Only $1-2). Support your developers!

Turning off "Compatibility Mode" in Spare Parts may be required if the programs are not running full screen. You may have to switch it on/off a couple times before it sticks (flipping it once didn't work for me, I had to turn if off/on/off before it finally stayed off).
This thread is a spin off of a previous thread HERE. Additional information may be found there (though I tried to import all the important information into this thread).
Please don't post .apks here!!!
Thanks to all the people who have helped find working versions...

I can confirm that the xperia version not only works but is stunningly beautiful (It's my go-to for showing off my NC). Another user reported the SGS version works and listed the version #.
Nice little thread. Thanks for this

Did you try turning off compatibility mode with spare parts? I haven't personally tried A5 but that version was reported working.

I can confirm that Backstab works on the NC CM7. Here's my specs and what I had to do:
Version: Backstab HD 1.2.2
I'm running the latest Nightly build of CM7 (cm_encore_full-152.zip)
Overclocked to 1200 Mhz
I have it installed to the internal Memory.
To get this game to run, you have to edit your build.prop file with an editor. If you're not familiar with editing this file, just google around a bit. Here are the settings that I'm using:
ro.product.model=SPH-P100
ro.product.brand=bn
ro.product.name=encore
ro.product.device=encore
ro.product.board=encore
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
After you edit your file, reboot. Run the game and it will download the latest files. After that it ran great for me. Didn't have to edit anything else. Great smooth performance.

65mb is the size of the hos directory on my sd card
I got Rainbow Six HD v.1.0.1 running pretty smoothly here.
I'm on nightly #154 currently, but it worked also on previous ones.
Hello,
I tried Shadow Gaurdian using your directions, and on rooted stock, I get the cannot connect when downloading and on cm7 sd install, I got it to download data, but it crashes after the loading screen. I bought the galaxy tab version, what version are you running? I am pretty sure I have a patched imei on both installs. Certain on cm7 because SBM works.
Thank you for this list. I know they are not the best, but the games are nice. I got Dungeon Hunter1 when it was free way back when, and love it.

Added info on the build.prop editing required (in addition to IMEI patch). Sorry for the confusion. If it still doesn't work you may want to try a hacked .apk, we've seemed to have better luck with those in general.

Sg worked for me after using Chainfire 3d with Power plugin selected.

Galahad and Rastaviper, which version did you use? After trying all steps on both cm7 and rooted stock, it works but cannot get past the cutscenes which freeze the whole nook and I must reboot. This happened with chainfire set to nvidia, qualcom, and powerver.
Thanks again for this thread.
The purchased apk would not get past the gameloft logo. I tried the galaxy s version but got a parcing error.

I personally haven't tried it so I don't know which retail version worked. I believe rasta used the hacked version of *see below*. You should be able to find it if you google.

Since the only changes are ro.product.manufacturer and ro.product.model... you can use the newer IMEI Generator to make the edits for you while patching your framework with your IMEI at the same time.... just read the directions to know you have to edit the ini file for any build.prop edits to occur... but once set... your golden.
If anything else crops up that we need the ability to add... I'll gladly entertain the ability to have the Generator edit them for us.

Didn't realize the IMEI generator now did build.prop as well. Thanks for the info as well as the work, the OP has been edited to include that information.

[Q] Problems with games and StreakDroid?

Hi guys,
Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this question but as I believe it might be related to Steve's StreakDroid, I thought I'd post this here (please move if this isn't the correct place).
I have been using Steve's StreakDroid v1.9.0 (thanks by the way Steve) for a while now and ever since I went from official 318 to StreakDroid, I've not been able to play a couple of games properly or even at all and I was wondering if anyone else was having the same issues and if it was related to the ROM.
The games in question, so far, are Angry Birds Seasons, Contract Killer and BT Gangsta. Angry Birds and Angry Birds Rio work perfectly fine, but Seasons either freezes when loading a level (music continues), level loads but then freezes with the level ends or menu is brought up or I have textures/layers missing (characters, background etc). Contract Killer works at first but after a couple of levels, I start getting missing textures/layers again then freezing, freezing on some loading screens and as for BT Gangsta, mainly freezing on inital loading screen or when trying to start the first mission.
I have now updated to 351 (ROM & BB) and then installed Steve's StreakDroid v1.9.1 with StreakMOD (install.txt only having Bios present so no other mods etc), wiping all data, cache, factory resets etc and still I am getting this issue. Angry Birds Seasons was working fine on 318 (though I didn't get to try the other 2 games on that version).
Can anyone help shed some light on this please?
Thanks in advance!
Add volnoppt to your install file and re-install 1.9.0 to fix. It is what I did and angry birds seasons and contract killer now work,
Awesome dude, that seems to have done the trick...Thanks!
Glad I could help, when you get the chance please hit the ole thanks button.

HAWX wer.1.1.5.all.ipk also black backround or black plane...
gunbro slowly ...
Thank you for no one answered, but I coped alone. I download version of the game for webos palm mobile, i thing, not for tab. Not a good resolution, and pixels are not shown well.For all those who have the same problem only to do is download metadata.json ver. 101 texturefix.And copy "metadata.json" in the app directory
(ex: /media/cryptofs/apps/usr/palm/applications/com.gameloft.app.dungeonhunter).
This is only for games that not running in landscape mode or not showing textures properly.
