Great! That game is a nice break in the stressful periods - just sailing on the big sea :)

so many games not supported...

I want N.O.V.A 2 & Asphalt 6

hope this will be fixed very soon
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] billycrf100:
The version i have is 1.0.3
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] s1dewayz:
can you upload that version of the game please?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AXIS of Reality:
For the older Android games like Avatar, Hero of Sparta, NOVA, etc you MUST download it via the Games Hub app preloaded on your SGS II.

All the Gameloft games in there are versions specifically for the Galaxy S II, so use them first.

Unfortunately, since the update to KE1 the Modern Combat 2 game from the Games Hub has stopped working for me, force closing after the Gameloft logo and saying the game is ready, touch screen to play.

which version please?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] nightranger73:
It's normal with a new phone or a new android version and even more if they use specific hardware as the GPS is.

Wait for developers to update their software.

It has been and always will be the same on hardware or software upgrades.

Had an FC on Cordy. Can't confirm yet if it's hardware or software related.

you can see 8 games on gameloft site if you choose SGS2. yesterday nothing was there. did they optimized those games for mali?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Darkchaser:
Bloody hell what a shame. Was really looking forward to getting this game once I got the SGS2.

It's beginning to make me doubt on whether I should get a SGS2 or just go for an O2X that can play most of the games.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] antoniomistretta:
Cut the rope work fine! :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] DVC1985:
I've been in touch with Namco Bandai and they said they are putting their development team on the case, so hopefully soon there should be an update that adds full SGS2 compatibility.

has any one managed to get hold of the riptide Gp apk ? ...does it work?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sun-drop:
ahh crap...

*dxt/s3tc texture support ... sucky ....

lets hope SGS2 sales force devs to support it...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] oleost:
Hello, Wondering if someone could try Free Heroes 2 and se if it runs?

Also, comment on the performance. Of course it would be great with a youtube video.

"Free Heroes 2" is "Heroes of might and magic 2" ported to Android.

Appbrain.com link to Free Heroes 2 if anyone uses that.

Edit: Tested and worked.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ph00ny:
They may have changed something in robo-defense. It freezes after a while
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] kohiiou:
*dxt/s3tc texture support

Install Chainfire3D, maybe find the plugins on Google, install the plugins on Chainfire3D.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1087427

Enable the plugin - and you'll have *dxt/s3tc support.

The below are just a guess:

S3TC is proprietary texture compression -- often used in desktops. It is readily available but I think that vendors need to have licensing to use it in their software or source codes.

OpenGL ES has some support of the texture compression through glteximage2d function via import. This is limited however, and not perfect (since I believe Tegra uses hardware decompression methods) and is being done through software.

:p

Based on what people say online, you can check Samurai II: Vengeance as working with Chainfire3D + nVidia plugin.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] fryhole:
Unfortunately, that doesn't look likely, at least for awhile. I emailed the devs about it and received this in response.

"We're not planning on doing this anytime soon, but it's possible that it will happen by the end of the year if the Tegra 2 version does well enough.

Sorry I can't be more accurate, and thanks for your interest.

Ralf"

Asphalt 6 works! :D
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] BlueScreenJunky:
Very interested in asphalt 6. Did you get it from the market or gameloft ? And did you have to use chainfire3D with a specific plugin ?

Thanx !
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] kratos123:
Hey mi3x

can u please tell me what version of asphalt 6 you are running

thnx
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] pbrown77:
I also have a working copy of asphalt 6. I will post back what version it is in an hour or so. It runs OK. Not 100% smooth but still quite playable.

I am not using chainfire 3d.

Edit: OK. I am using 1.0.0 and have had one race so can't say it will never crash but its a start :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jmsant:
With chainfire3d (which I bought, and I recommend it), fruit ninja thd and samurai vengeance work flawlessly.

Backbreaker thd shows some error messages, but works fine except for the player textures (black or show artifacts). These 3 with the nvidia plugin of course.

Bruce lee with the qualcomm plugin charges ok, but textures are missing or are messed up, the buttons dont show up, etc.

Virtually it doesn't work.

I hope the plugins will be updated or fixed for our phone.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sassyAI:
Hi,

has anyone bought and tried out Galaxy on Fire 2 (which is only for the Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY) on our beautiful device? Maybe it will work with Chainfire3D?

So far I´m very happy with all that Chainfire3D magic. :cool:
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Uvaavu:
Galaxy on Fire 2 doesn't work, as far as I can tell.

And I missed my refund after 15 mins by getting distracted! Grrr
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] DanteEx:
I have tried 3 games with Chainfire 3D and here are the results.

Samurai II: Vengeance works well however you cannot use the combo menu.

Pinball HD for Tegra works flawlessly.

Riptide GP wont even execute. I missed the 15 minute refund period too sadly.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sub69:
Exactly the same here. I'm surprised that Riptide apparently works very well on the SGS, but not at all on the SGSII - new plugins needed, I guess.

Only other one I tried is Bang Bang Racing - which also fails to execute.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] kkaster:
Sorry if this is a repost.

Not working:

Hexdefense Free

&

Hexdefense (Paid)

Both start fine, but while playing they freeze the whole phone and you have to reboot with a very long press on the power button.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] genus:
not 100% smooth??? you mean got lag in gaming for Asphalt 6 in SGS2?

I like this game much :p
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] harlzden:
Why is it some games dont work with the SG2

is it a android gingerbread issue

or samsung CPU issue

is this normal when samsung release a new phone.

Do the htc & lg dual cores encounter the same issue as the samsung or there games support is better

just trying to determine if sg2 has a disadvantage comapred to other
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] kersey:
It's not really lag, it just seems to be a strange framerate on it . Difficult to explain really!!!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] kkaster:
Possible workaround for Hexdefense.

In the start window, press the menu button and enter the settings:

Uncheck "Sound Effects" & "Music", Save and restart the app.

Disabling "Intense Graphics" didn't solve the freeze issue, seems to be something with the audio.

After that I could successfully

loose

(yet without freezing) the first level of this beautiful but hard game.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] DanteEx:
It isn't an issue with the CPU or Gingerbread. The Graphics processor Unit (GPU) uses the OpenGL encoder Mali-400, at this period in time it is pretty new and no other phone uses it but the Galaxy S2 so there simply isn't coding in a lot of the games to utilize it.

Hopefully this will be fixed in the future and if not... lets just hope

Chainfire's 3D

driver bridges the gap more as it matures. For now we are rather limited on the graphics compatibility.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] RMXO:
Samurai II works fine for me with no issues as you mentioned.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sunwee:

Did you see my post with a possible workaround: disabling music and sound effects? For me freezing is gone. Well, so is the audio-visual experience :) Meh, better than nothing.

Would be nice if you could post if this is working for you too. So we could lead the developers on the right track.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Dreadnort:
I know alot of people are looking forward to Plants vs Zombies and like me were probably annoyed that the 24 hour free offer is only applicable to U.S residents.

Luckily if you google for "How To Get A Working Amazon Appstore For Android If You ARE NOT American" you'll find a solution. There is just under 6 and three-quarter hours left to grab this before you need to pay, so take advantage. I see this as no different than making a U.S. or Jap 360/PSN account to get stuff that isn't available in Europe, free or otherwise.

You can add Radiant HD and Bust A Move to the working list as well.

thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] bisoner:
Go to the gameshub (not the usual marketplace) on your SGS2 - Asphalt 6 is there and works perfectly with your phone. You can also google gameloft on your phone - when you go to their site it will recognise your phone and show you all the games which work.

I have found that downloading random apk's for games do not always work on the SGS2. However, all the Gameloft games I've got from their site have worked perfectly.

Whilst there are still a few games which dont work on the SGS2 (read Dungeon Defenders) there are loads to play - and good ones too. If Order and Chaos comes out and works on the SGS2 I will be over the moon as this looks great (though is only Wi-Fi playable at this stage).

Waffling a bit now but my wife Desire S is able to run the Gameloft games really well - I can't tell the difference between Asphalt 6 on both phones. It would be good to see something released which really puts our powerhouse through it's paces. At this stage, I get the impression the SGS2 is barely breaking sweat.
