Configuration for playing Gameloft HD games

[Guest i am not a hacker]

Some people have managed to get Gangstar MV and Sandstorm working (plus many others). I can't get these to work. I have only been able to get Real football 2011 and Asphalt 5 working. I have tried Sandstorm, Gangstar, and Assassins creed. With Sandstorm, when the actual gameplay part loads, about 95% of the screen goes black and you can see some bits of things in orange. I can pause it but the menu text isn't there. With Gangstart, the game menu freezes. With Assassins creed, everything works until you get in game, the game part of the screen goes black, but the pause button and Hp bar remains. I can still move around but it doesn't show. I am running CM7 N63, Gen 1, Overclocked to 691MHz (can't go any higher), VM Heap size 48m, i also clear all the tasks before running the games.

So basically, what do i need to do to be able to run these games? Is it different with different phones?

I am desperate for these games...

Help would be nice

Thank you

most games do not support ARM6 on Blade :unsure:

yes they do :) those games run fine on blade AND optimus one AND galaxy ace and all other ARM6 processors....on CM7 you have to disable JIT and surface dithering in order to avoid the graphic glitches which i have faced as well and reported but they just ignored my issue by calling it "appissue"

EDIT: move VM heap to 32m

yup as the above comment says. nearly all tthe gameloft games work on the blade. its mainly to do with setup if it doesn't work. I could even get most working on the stock orange rom (they were just really laggy).

on cm7. the only gameloft game I have tried and failed to play is splinter cell

also make sure when you apply those changes in cyanogenmod settings, you have to reboot in order to let those settings work.

are there any other settings on cm7 u need to disable to make them work? I still cant get modern combat: sandstorm working and I have disbled jit and surface dithering and hw acceleration and rebooted. Also enabled all 4 stagefright things. Whenever I try to play sandstorm, the texture is messed up, and my screen is split into 6 equal segments so I cant play :)

same to me

gangstar westcoast starts but with massive graphical glitches (black/white textures)

gangstar miami needs ages to load and then it get unplayable graphic glitches

modern combat sandstorm starts quick but with unplayable graphic glitches

i tryed with and without jit/dithering using the cyanogenmod prefs

i tryed with and without stagefright settings using bladebuddy

nothing worked

can play nfs shift and GT racing and dungeon defenders and dungeon hunters 1+2, townsman etc. but those games i have no chance getting it to run

[Guest HitcH90]

Try it:

Open build.prop (Root explorer or something) and change ro.product.manufacturer = ZTE to ro.product.manufacturer = HTC and restart phone :unsure:

works fine and game will run :)

Does anyone know if this works on the Blade? http://www.gameloft.com/android-games/the-settlers-android/

It's not on the UK store yet.

to be honest, i've got eternal legacy by gameloft and i'll report once the data is downloaded because the only game i tried was miami vindication and it worked fine with JIT and surface dithering disabled, not sure about the other games.

No one supported me when i submitted a ticket 4 times in CM7 bug report section so i'm not bothered at all since it's clear that something's wrong with the 2.3.x build and not these settings in order to run all HD games properly.

The devs get away by saying that gameloft doesn't support blade -.- and they say that i'm running a pirated copy...i mean the games are supposed to run on all ARM6 processors

Also note that i tried playing ALL of the gameloft games on 2.2 froyo roms and they worked like a charm, although they were slow because 2.3 is supposed to provide speed. So if someone wants to report the issue, please do and i'll support it...

Use these pics as evidence if you want...

Just changing to HTC as Hitch90 says made Settlers run on CM7 for me where it didn't before. :unsure:

Was that the first time you ran the game or did it download the data and then you tried to run it and it didn't work?

It had downloaded data in the past and everything was white. I deleted the data, changed it to htc and got it to download from scratch again.

I haven't touched any of those CM7 options. They're set to CM7 defaults.

haha, i'll give it a try tonight...what do we say, after all a mini dev is hidden within everyone, you just have to expose it....

thumbs up for HitcH90 !
