I know others have discussed this, but I was wondering if anyone can help. The game won't play because of the intro.mp4 file. It appears too high of a resolution. If you convert the file to say 720x400 the file will play but the game will notice the size being incorrect and re-download. I was able to create an empty file with the same bytes and drop it in the folder. Now this file was not a playable video file however the game did not try to download the changed file this time.
Conclusion, if someone knows how to create an intro.mp4 file that will play on the nook and that is exactly 30,624,735 bytes; in theory it should allow the game to play. I have tried a handful of different utilities and can't seem to accomplish this.
The same thing happens with Dungeon Hunter and Asphalt 5. I, too was able to successfully convert the videos in a size/format that the NC liked. The games detect their not the original and replace them with the non playable video. I gave up because I wanted to play the games instead but I'd be grateful to any one smarter than me that figures this out.

What version of the game are you tryin to run? motorola, htc, whatever. I did try a version that ran the intro mp4 fine but the game hung afterwards during the loading process.
Haha so I've had to use this site back in the day to get extensions on a couple papers... you can enter a file size and extension, so maybe it would work? At work so can't test it out but hope it works. It's called "File Destructor 2.0" it doesn't look like .mp4 is one of the extensions you can pick, but I can't imagine it wouldn't work, worst case I'd think you could pick like .avi and just rename it, but I don't think it should matter at all.

Well no go. Got the video to play then it just ends. I was able to convert the file with HandBrake, then used fsutil to create a dummy file to make up the rest of my size. Then appended the padding to the end of the video with copy from a dos prompt.
Tried this same thing Spider-Man and now my logo plays at the first of the game. Kind of nice not having that box popup.
If anyone really wants or needs all the steps I can post that.
When I launch dungeon hunter it tries to play the video but I get a pop up that says the video cannot play. I click ok and the game runs fine after that...

True. However, the point of this thread is to actually see the video / not have to press that Ok button.
BTW, how do you "click" on a a touchscreen? LOL

and were you able to play the game? are you on 1.1?
So, did anyone get Let's Golf 2 working and actually play it? I've tried the Galaxy Tab version, then it crashes back to the launcher almost immediately after downloading the required files...

Yes Spider-Man plays just fine. I'm on 1.1.0.
I actually managed to get let's golf 2 video to play once, but then crashed )I think it was played with rock player) - version for galaxy tab. Spider Man says the video cannot be played and moves on to loading the game, every single time. With Sandstorm however, it's a hit and miss - sometimes it loads, sometimes goes back to the launcher.

It's the version for the Galaxy Tab 3.0.8 I believe.
Just tried a new version v3.1.6 and same thing happens... downloads the files just fine, then can't play video, then crashes to the back to the home screen.
Anyone have any success?

to replace the framework.jar with a hacked one, and now the games works fine, probably this will also fix crashes on other gameloft games

excellent, u.b.d.man...
Has anybody had any luck running gameloft games. I can get asphalt 5 to work along with BIA and modern combat 2 but not the others. I want to run ganstar Miami, Spiderman, and ft racing but they wont run tho they install the extra data just fine. I'm on cm7 rc4.
What rom are u using if u are able to play them?
List of Working Gameloft Games...
List of working Gameloft games HERE.
I've gotten NOVA to work and runs well on cm7 rc4. I tried Asphalt 6 HD on Nookie froyo, it works but the screen is scrunched together and you can't see the car.

Could you tell me how you did it? NOVA looks great and I'm eager to try it on my autonooter rooted Nook.
What version are you using to get Nova to run fullscreen, I can get it to run but the hole game runs 1/4 screen.
how about lets golf 2?
The way I got MC2 was just by emailing the one I downloaded on my epic from their site to my nook. It installed and worked great.
Asphalt 6 HD works perfectly on the Nook Color.

I concur (hit or miss sometimes), I've got Dungeon Hunter HD and Hero of Sparta to work on CM7 v.33. And at times, I get the same scenario when it launches and I download the data, click on the game and it doesn't work. I'm currently running NookieComb, and they both work on that as well. Good luck.

I have the same issue with Spiderman. Im running CM7 RC4. Game installs and when I go to run it crashes right away when trying to play the opening video. Looking at the Gameloft folder on SD card I found the mp4 video and was able to play it in rockplayer but noticed it was 1024 x 600 which I think nook cant play natively? I took the mp4 file and ran it thru handbrake into a format nook can handle and pushed back to sd card however when I went to run the game I think it checks the file size as it asked me to re download the 13meg mp4 file again from gameloft.
It probably just checks the CRC to make sure it's the same file. I believe this can be spoofed.

I have tried manipulating the files too..
the odd thing is I was able to run Asphalt 5 once before and it has never since. The graphics are incredible LOL, so I want it back.
Need to find away to get passed the first video. I copied the Gameloft file from my phone to the Nook to see if it was any different and still no go..
well i re encoded the video (that was the easy part) and checked its okay and runs just fine on the nook. Looked around about the CRC thing and used PEiD with CRC32 plug in and got the CRC value from the source original mp4 file. Used that value and applied it to the new re encode video via PEiD. Value took but still doesnt pass some Gameloft check. Fails and wants me to re down the file.
I posted something a month or so ago about this very issue. I thought it was why my games weren't playing also. You can reencode the video but then you'll have to pad it to the exact size as the original. I was able to get the videos to play but then the game would still crash after that anyways.
Hi.I wish we post the list games tested in using rom.
Exp: I'm using Utimate droid ,games and apps tested is:supper mario ,angry bird,nes game(for rom classic nintendo,you can play very more game:contra,mario,lode runner,ninja......),HD paint kids,........not try asphalt 6
Tks all.

3.1.2 on Nookiecomb 0.4.2.
I think it has to do more with rom (cm7) than anything. I just saw a video on YouTube of a Guy playing Spiderman on his nook. Didn't say what rom he was using tho
Recently converted to CM7 RC4 and having the same issues as above.... came from nootered 1.1 with pretty much all gameloft games running, but so far I've only gotten Asphalt 5, BiA2, and Nova (non-GTab version) to work. Gangstar, Sandstorm, Fishing Kings, Let's Golf 2, and more all immediately crash upon start.
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.
Amazing game and its Free

i've just downloaded it through play from my laptop, as you did, and it works, just played it, great game i have stock rom, rooted, dont know if it helps. Maybe you could try to restart your tablet and laptop and try it again?
Remix OS seems to run almost all the games I threw at it. All apps have worked too without any problem. Good job devs.
However, when I play Republique, faith gets stuck on the beginning of the level. Does anybody have a solution to it? It runs fine on my phone, but on remix she gets stuck.
EDIT: Okay, got it running. Here is a tip: To ensure that games work properly on remix os, right click on the game icon and select "Open in Fullscreen Mode". That should solve any problem regarding any games. Maybe, this trick also works if any app malfunctions. Hope this helps.

Make sure to not play games in window mode. Right click the game icon and select "Open in Fullscreen Mode". That should do the trick.
Also for flash embedded games, go download the legacy android flash player from adobe website.

Okay, I can confirm that unreal engine based games dont run. Epic citadel crashed as soon as I tap the screen to play. Does anybody else have a solution to it. All unity based games work just fine.
