Shield games Portal and half life? - Nvidia Tegra Note 7

Just wondering if anyone had tried to run these, should work given that the note 7 is Tegra 4 right? Not sure about the controls though...

I tried with xbox 360 pad (rumblepad 2 didnt work (mapping problem)) and hl2 shut down on loading screen. Main menu work well. I think that maybe 1gb of ram on our tegra note.

I can play all the way through to the part where you jump out the window of the interrogation room (about five minutes in) but everytime I open that first door the game tries to load and then crashes. sucks because everything up to that point runs pretty damn well. it might be a lack of ram issue.
using a moga pro controller in B mode. didn't even have to map keys it just worked.

it's definitely a ram issue. I tried running a screen recording program to show you gameplay, and it would record just fine until the game tries to load. the game would crash and take the recording app and everything else along with it including my Bluetooth connection and ram monitor xposed module. if I start the game after a fresh boot and ram purge, the game will load fine and run buttery smooth until I get to a part where it needs to load again. sucks because it's perfect otherwise even on balanced power settings. nvidia really crippled the tablet with only 1gb of ram. even shield owners are complaining about the really long load times so it's no wonder the note doesn't stand a chance.

I reckon if we can debloat the ROM to make around 500mb free ram it would be perfect.... SO there can be a custom rom for hardcore gaming lol which is totally debloated with only a few services.... Thats what we need.... A very very very light custom rom!!:laugh:

I'll reinstall the game and upload a log by tonight.

Tried Portal tonight and seemed to work fine (I managed the first few levels) unfortunately there is some sort of glitchy overlay blocking most of the screen. The game behind is running just fine though. Will see if I can grab a screenshot.
:EDIT: Just gave HL2 a shot and seems to work just fine, played about an hour with no crashes/issues. The odd stutter but that'll likely be due to the RAM differences.

What controller did you use? HL2 seems to run fine for me but I tried an xbox one controller with a USB otg cable and cannot map the analogue sticks.

I used a PS3 controller via an OTG cable. Xbox 360 controller would just spin and spin. Unfortunately though after a while the game would crash on HL2.

We would need a kernel whit swap support. Memory speed of tegra note is 11 MB ,with roehsoft ramexpander is possible expand up to 4 GB.

FPse PS1 emulator is finally out on the market!

Its actually FPse on the market and does circles around psx4 droid .Playing fff9 full speed. Post games working full speed for reference!
Edit-
Alright this is going to be simple.
My evo-
Mikfroyo 4.4
Netarchy-toast 4.3.2
Setcpu- smart ass- overclock 1036
16gb class 4
Games tested
- Marvel vs Capcom
-FF9
-Resident evil 3
-Digimon world
FPse at its current state is not much better than early version of psx4droid v2, though it plays cutscenes great, because it struggles to emulate at full speed .
M vs C is a great example since the opening scene and player selection run full speed, but hits a wall at actual game play. In FF9 I am in Oilvert in disc three so the game play seems great . Then in RE3 THE WHOLE GAME AND EMULATOR CRASHED at the beginning cutscene of game. Digimon world started and ran great.
The controls are very well made and much more friendly to big thumbed people, the only complaint would be that you must activate through the input menu the L1L2, R1R2, select , and start buttons for landscape mode for different games.
Note also that this emulator doesn't YET stretch the image fullscreen.
Over all it will take a few updates to polish it but I am confident this developer is headed in the right direction. How this helps some one.
meh, my psp can do that
I think you just got punk'd
Edit:
Wow, great performance. I think zod just got served!
It's FPse on the market

I've been using psx4droid for a while and i really like it. This one though has some serious potential. I tried street fighter alpha 3 and the first thing i noticed is how much better it looked than on psx4droid. However, it ran much slower, im not sure if i can change any settings to fix that. I was amazed by how well it ran rival schools though. Psx4droid runs it but its really slow.
Couple things i dont like about fpse though. There doesnt seem to be haptic feedback ftom button presses. I need haptic feedback.
Also, on fpse the keys arent very forgiving. What i mean is that you need to press the button precisely or it wont register, thats kind of a problem. Psx4droid registers my input even if its a little off.
I cant get start, select and the shoulder buttons in landscape mode. Thats gotta get fixed.
All in all, this emulator has some issues, but it is a first release and has some big potential.
Keep the reviews coming. I don't want to buy it because of that 15 minute window.
I downloaded it just to try it and compare it to psx4driod 1.7 and v2 and I gotta say it still needs some work fsce (wateva the spelling is) is kool but dosen't play ff9 at full speed like psx4driod does....It has potential after a few updates and the ui needs to cleaned up menus look wak to me...just my 2 cents

Had the same issue. Download Autopopstation4 and read the readme. Trying it now.
Update: Works like a charm. Tried this with Final Fantasy V, Metal Gear Disk 1, as well as Legend of Dragoon disk 1. Go nuts...
Update2: Autopopstation does not work on multi-disk eboots. Still looking into that....
Let me start off by saying that I used to use psx4droid on some previous roms and it worked fairly. Definitely not a genuine playing experience, but it worked enough to show it off a little bit. Then when I jumped ship to MIUI it stopped working, no big deal. I just stopped using it. Then I tried this and what do you know.. works like a charm. I messed around with kernels a bit to get the wiimote working and voila.. my rig:
MIUI 1.2.11
Cm snap latest (7.5?)
HW Version 003
The first thing I tried out was Crash Bandicoot. The title and intro scenes flew by at well over 100fps so I decided to turn on the framelimiter in the options. I played the first level and a half and to my almost disbelief.. solid 56-60fps constantly. Very few drops to mid-high 40s. Sure I only played a few minutes, but I was definitely impressed.
Second game I tried was Spyro. Again, runs very smooth at a constant 56-60 during gameplay. Drops during cutscenes, but the gameplay itself is flawless. Again.. incredibly surprised.
Third game.. and this is where things get a bit rough. Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver. The game itself while you run and jump around runs at 45+ fps but it's definitely playable. It's not perfect 1:1 of what I checked out on youtube, but it plays. I skipped the beginning cutscene hastily, but there are some scenes generated with the games actual engine that you can't skip. This is where it all went downhill. There is an ominous voice speaking to you as you come back as the soul reaver or something along those lines.. I couldn't make it out cause the framerate kept dropping and his voice would skip. This drove me nuts. The sound emulation is generally not great on this emulator, but this game particularly was bad.
Other stuff:
For some reason, the settings don't save for me. I have to set them every single time I start a new game. Hopefully this is not a product of my setup and of the app itself.
I was able to play full screen. I saw someone post earlier that it won't stretch to the full screen, but it seemed to play perfectly across my entire screen beautifully. Just pointing that out.
This got me so excited for gaming on my evo that I actually ordered a Classic Controller Pro from amazon.. I can see myself using my evo much more once it gets to me for gaming. Very excited!
Battery drain was insane. Literally a % a minute. Although don't take this for much as I JUST flashed the kernel and usually I do see quick drain the first day or so of usage.
EDIT: My next game will be Tekken 3 only because I remember having such a hard time emulating it on a stock hd2 about a year ago and once on my own Evo. If this emulates it nicely... well... We have a winrar on our hands.
Updating with a new post otherwise no one will see this. I tried out street fighter 3 alpha and surprisingly enough, it runs like crap. It maintains around 40 fps but unless it runs at 60 it's just not smooth enough to pull off combos and all. Tekken 3 won't play at all past the first logo, the game just crashes. It came as a bin.ecm which I renamed to just a bin to get it to with which might be the problem

When ever you get an .ecm you need to un compress with the ecm tools - just google it . Once you download them drag and drag and drop the rom into the unecm file if I remember right and it will un compress so you can play.

I read about this, i'm excited
Ya I've been playing Mario Kart for a while..
Tried to play Donkey Kong but can't seem to get past the intro screen.
It says press start - I press it but the game doesn't seem to start or acknowledge the start button has been pushed....
I'll try a few more...
Pete
I seem to lose my acceleration at random in mario kart. Like I'll go around a corner and just stop. Do you get this? It was wierd. happened on lugi highway
On Mario Kart I had to keep pressing the 'a' button to get restarted..
guess it's not 100% yet...
any one having any problems saving a file? every time i try too save a game screen goes black and freezes and have to force close, I dont mean the in game save game but the emulator save game feature.
Other than that the games runs so smooth on atrix!!
Just tried it on my galaxy tab and the save game feature works and also plays smooth
But wonder why the save game feature aint working on my atrix...
@Techcruncher Yep i also getting that problem with acceleration on my atrix but it doesint have this problem on my galaxy tab...
sorry i know this is a super noob question but where do i put the roms i dled on the phone? i created a roms folder on my sd card but the emulator cant find it. so noob sorry
run the program and put in /sdcard-ext/romdir
romdir being the directory on your sdcard that contains the roms...
or just put in /sdcard-ext if the roms are in the root directory...
hope that helps..

This is a problem with our phone, as I had the same problem is jetcar stunts.
As for the emulator, works great if you don't need to use L/R. Gets hard to control if you do.
Same here with jetcar. I think it has to do with the fact the atrix can recognize only 2 multiouches, and maybe the screen thinks we're pressing a,b, and the joystick (3) so sacrifices the "a" button, halting the acceleration.
It sucks that the screen supports 5 fingers, but the software; only 2...

Connect your Moga in Mode B. Once connected, start an app/game that you want to create a profile for. Once in the game, long press the Start button and overlay will appear on screen. Part of the overlay will be a toolbar with various icons on. Drag the function you want to assign to the screen and place it where you want (LS = left stick for example). Once you have placed something on screen, long pressing it will bring up a menu that allows you move the item or select other functions. For the analogue sticks you can use buttons Y and A to increase or decrease the size of the stick which will change the way it responds in game. Trial and error

Cool
I was hoping to use the mapper with Modern Combat 3 but for some reason the Kit Kat update seems to have killed that particular game - it crashes after checking the licence which is really annoying...
I'm having a weird issue where I have to move the analogue stick up and down for left and right when a game map is in use. Is there a setting somewhere which will correct this?
UPDATE:
Figured out it's just on Real Racing 3 (I haven't got many games installed yet) and I presume it's down to the gyroscope problem which TN7 owners seem to have.
Hopefully RR3 will get a fix for that. Quite annoying though, as using the analogue stick on mapping instead doesn't seem to fully turn the virtual steering wheel so I can't get round corners, ha!

In case anyone is still interested, RR3 implemented controller support into the game. My Moga Pro works well.
The only issue is after the last OTA update from nvidia, the game is pretty much unplayable. All audio is horrifically choppy and the game feels a bit laggy too.
To say I'm really cheesed off is an understatement. I do love that game

Reicast (Dreamcast emulator)

Not really sure what forum rules are here but the official way to get roms is to 'rip them yourself'. Googling dreamcast roms should give you more information.
How to get the best out of your reicast
I came across an issue that im not sure you guys have come across yet, but previously we had to put games on 50hz to let some of them run.
Now that we have This box running a real GPU, we can run games at true full speed by putting it on 60hz getting you 60 fps.
Im using a non powered usb hub with my Dual Shock 4 Controller Wired and a usb mouse with no issues.
Strangely, games that do not provide the option like the american version of Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 USA are locked at 50hz unless you get a jap ntsc version. You may want to test this out by turning on the FPS option to see if thats causing your gameplay lag.
The other issue is that Sonic Adventure and Marvel Vs Capcom both give Kernel Panics.
Have you guys experienced this?

This is great news!! Man I actually just pulled my Dreamcast out of storage the other day for some Berserk....very very cool that the Fire TV can play this well. I know this isn't EXACTLY where we should post these things, but can you guys sort of put a compatibility list together with what games you played and how they worked? Thanks again for bringing this to my attention.
There is a WIP compatiblity list at http://wiki.reicast.com/index.php/Reicast_Compatibility_List
It's a little outdated, most of the results are from r5 at the latest. There *are* some issues with Reicast r6 and Qualcomm chips that people have reported, but I've had no issues with it on my Nexus5.
Most of their testing is on Tegra4 (Shield) because nVidia actually gave them one to support the project.
Some controllers, like the Moga supposedly don't work right with r6 either.
r7 is supposed to be coming soon, though. Not sure what all that'll bring.
Games that for sure don't work: ANYTHING that's WinCE based, because there's no MMU support in the emulator.

That's awesome thank you. I didn't see the Berserk game listed but I'm guessing it's probably not compatible yet. Very neat that they're doing this though. I remember NBA2k and Virtua Tennis were the jam!
The 360 controller seems to work beautifully on the FireTV.
As far as emulators, sideload and see. RetroArch runs I think, which handles a lot of systems.
There's another thread on this topic IIRC.
I posted about SuperN64 no longer being in the Play Store,and gave out some links to it in a different thread.
It works excellently,even with HQ4X.
The main one to get normally is Mupen64Plus AE Free,but that one is a bit slower than SuperN64.
The only downside with SuperN64 is the ads when exiting the app,which are sometimes video ads,but you
can just cancel them out with the Home button.
Here is information about SuperN64 and the developer name which is also there.

I already posted the link to an apk download in this thread below including another market that happens to have the free app.

Stars,random g,no BS.
Too many places require you to wait until a certain post count for posting useful links.
Stupid advertisement link spamming a-holes.
Long time,nobody posting.
Why?
I got another "link" to show here.
h**t**t**p://xmryadro.ru/reicast/
Remove stars and bolded x to get the link.
I fail at using google search to find it directly for easy access on Fire TV.
The page is a list of debug version APKs of Reicast you can download.
One of them is fom the 27th of this month. (two days ago)
I grabbed the 5/27 debug build and tested it with SA2 which causes reboots.
Apart from the pure BULLSH** of lacking analog mapping support,I did manage to beat City Escape in Interpreter and Software modes which ran quite fast considering that it is interpreter.
It did not freeze up for several seconds like recompiler does.
The problem is that it STILL rebooted after the results screen ends and the next part starts loading. (F-king HATE Qualcomm)
I used a 700MB+ CDI image of Sonic Adventure 2 for this test.
I wish that the NullDCe Android Alpha 0.1 would successfully boot SA2 gdi so I can see if the performance is half decent.
Even though there is no hard button input at all and that the screen shrinks to match a phone's resolution.
I wish that Chankast or Makaron would get ported to Android so we can see if they will not cause rebooting.
Though I did reply in the Reicast Forums with an idea for Reicast to have an underclocked core setting to make it not reboot on Qualcomm devices.
The only reason reicast runs so well is due to a new arm dynarec core and a lot of streamlining overall, which NullDCe lacks.
The issues with SA2 are known, I believe, as well as controller problems that ended up broken in r6.
Chankast isn't open IIRC, and NullDC has far better compatibility anyway. Reicast is the evolution of NullDC, but a lot is having to be rebuilt from scratch, and plans to eventually be even better that NullDC is.
Also, Qualcomm's a *****. Their GPU drivers are among the worst nowadays.
Good info on issues is going to be on the project's github, in the issues tracker.
angelxwind has a buildbot for the project as well, which should have the latest buildable package here: http://reicast.angelxwind.net/?page/downloads
Remember that this is something a few people are doing in their spare time. They're not getting paid, they're not charging for the app. It's a bloody miracle that it works as well as it does.

This emulator play great on the Amazon Fire TV . Just finished playing a few rounds of power stone 2 and it plays and look great. So happy with this purchase so far. I cannot wait for this to be rooted hopefully that usb port will allow for external hard drive to be plug in.

How are games being loaded to the FTV? What adb method and to what destination path?

I wouldn't load them the way you are thinking of. What you need to do is put all of your Dreamcast ROMS into a folder on your PC and share it out to your network. Now get on your FTV and download ES File Manager and go to the "network" tab. Plug in the IP address of your PC creating the link between the FTV and your PC. Now you should be able to click on the PC icon in ES File Manager and see the folder that you shared out earlier. Now it is just a matter of copying and pasting the ROMS folder wherever you need them to be on your FTV.
So basically you are "pulling" your data from your PC to your FTV instead of "pushing" from your PC to your FTV. You have WAY more control over where your files end up on your FTV this way.
Bump for pleas of getting Reicast to have a workaround for sucky Qualcomm drivers.

Gaming performance really, REALLY bad

I've had this phone before the Oreo update. Antutu V6 showed super smooth graphics... that apparently don't translate into real-world usage.
For this example I'll talk about Real Racing 3, but it goes for any game.
On Nougat it would have this bug where it would run at about 40fps, then when I paused and resumed the race, it would be at a smooth 60fps for about 2 seconds. Thought the Oreo update would allow 60fps all the time like I know it should do.
I downloaded Real Racing 3 again after months, and now on default settings, at 1080p, I get about 15-25fps constantly. Pausing and resuming doesn't help any more.
So this game and many others that I used to love and play at a decent framerate on my previous phone, which had adreno 330 graphics, look almost unplayably horrid. Even skips frames on games like Color Switch which runs without a hitch on my brother's Moto C.
It's seriously worse than I would expect even a $200 device to be! And this phone cost $650 at release?!
Anyone else had these issues? Has anyone solved this for themselves?
Thanks.
I was having the same issue.If you have updated by OTA then flash the rom again using LGUP & do a factory reset using keys.I was getting heavy lag on MCVS,PUBG & heat issue almost same as yours.My issue is gone now.Also don't forget to turn off break time on Oreo in game center.
Look how smooth it runs now while screen recorder is on at 2k.

Might try this, thanks.
What are any major places where flashing the firmware could go wrong, and does the device need to be rooted? Thanks again!
Thats why i never play mobile Crap Games on a Phone, i dont like to charge again after 2 Hours.
Buy a Computer or Playstation, this is just a much better feeling, than those mobile Crap with tons of Ads.

I'm a PC gamer as well. Unfortunately I can't take my rig with me to places and use it on the bus or whatever, and there are no PC versions of most of the games I play and enjoy on the phone. We don't need posts like this, thanks.
Anyway, I think it must partly be optimisation because CSR2 is running smoothly.
Edit: sometimes

I want to see you sitting in the Bus with your Rig and playing Battlefield with Online Connection over the LG. I think it will melt down :laugh::silly:

Also, why should I reflash the ROM as well as factory resetting? Thanks.

I solved it by deleting all the games off my phone and downloading steam on my PC

Thanks would be really helpful for when I can afford a reasonable decent gaming PC!
