Did you purchase the RipTide or is it the demo version, I have the demo version and it doesn't work (purchased the pro version for the 3D app though)?
[Android Software Development] ohmlawx:
Hi,

thx for the reply. can pm ur email add? i cant attach the zip file here (no idea why)..

btw, find out after install the driver, all my google apps (map, skymap, navigator, search, and others) cant be use.
[Android Software Development] ohmlawx:
Hi,

updated regarding my problem.

Just solved it.

What i do is:

1. Uninstall the driver

2. clear all the data

3. uninstall cf3d and cf3d pro

4. reinstall cf3d & pro

5. Install driver

6. test the games..
[Android Software Development] Napzter:
I use the full version: Riptide GP 1.02. I have not tried the demo version but I read that this one doesn't work like it should. But the full version with the nvidia plugin and the SGS2 shaders works perfectly on my SGS2. It looks awesome with 16xMSAA, runs absolutely smooth and I couldn't see any graphical issues (the rider looks fine). I think Riptide even looks better on SGS2 with Chainfire3d and 16xMSAA as on an Tegra devices (e.g. LGO2x) because like Chainfire said the Tegra2 chip doesn't support MSAA. The only thing I'm wondering about is that the network connection has to be activated. Without activation it breaks after a few seconds.

There are also huge graphical improvements using 16xMSAA for JetCarStunts, Reckless Racing PLAY (Xperia Play version rocks), Rocket Bunnies, Tank Hero and Apparatus. All the edges and contours are extremely sharp now (or smooth?!? ... you don't see pixels or flickering contours anymore. But don't use a plugin for them.

I love the 16xMSAA feature. Thank you so much Chainfire!

@Chainfire: Can you please answer my question in post #1193? Thanks!
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
The result should be exactly the same, but it does still "pass through" the Chainfire3D driver, so if there are issues with the driver or its not 100% perfect, there can still potentially be negative effects. Unfortunately it is impossible to work around this without uninstalling the driver and rebooting.
[Android Software Development] finalreality:
Hello, I detected a small issue with chainfire3D. Im using the pro version from market and when playing starfront (galaxy s2 version) I see some texture corruption (polygons are green).

If I uninstall the ch3d (and egl) driver everything works good :)
[Android Software Development] SAPPH1RE:
Just started playing backbreaker vengeance, non-tegra version, with 4xmsaa.. The graphic is awesome, and the gameplay is very smooth.. I can't say how much i love these chainfire driver, it's just awesome..

I'm having problems with latest releases on my SGS2.

Today I updated from a very early version of CF3D Pro to 2.8. Everything works alright in the app itself, even all my games work with AA 16X, great job! But whenever I have the CF3D driver installed from within the app my SGS2 browser crashes right after opening it. No FC, just closes. Other browsers like Dolphin do work though. When I click Uninstall driver my default browser is fine again.

For what it's worth, I'm running Villain 1.4 for SGS2.
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
No such issue here. Suggest complete driver uninstall, removal of all shaders, plugins, etc. Then uninstall the APKs, and completely reinstall all CF3D stuff.
[Android Software Development] bentez2003:
Chainfire every app you make I have a hard time not buying, keep it up! Quality stuff.

+1 to hoping you fix the disappearing textures in gof2. Have you made any progress at all?

I have a request to the developer..

I am impressed with it but Please remove the "Search for Plugin" feature. I have some 20,000 map files data and it even searches those maps folder.. it takes it 10 mins to search for the plugins.. It shouldnt be like that... Either specify it one folder for all plugins or just make a Browse for plugin via explorer.. but not the search plugin..

Any news on Galaxy on Fire 2 on the Galaxy S2?

Btw, for those of you who want FISHLABS to support more than just Tegra devices, go over to their Galaxy on Fire 2 Android forums and help put some pressure on them. The moderators and even the CEO himself read the forum frequently.

I've been pressuring them for a little bit now and received the following runaround responses: "Android isn't the best platform to make games for," or "Piracy prevents us from profiting," or "Not a lot of people bought the Xperia Play version," or "Development to port this to other phones costs us hundreds of thousands of dollars."

It's ridiculous, but it sounds like lately they may be getting the message and rethinking their position on getting into the Android side of things. Go ahead and help pressure them to support more phones so they understand that there IS a profitable market out there on Android!

I am getting a distorted Lock screen on my HTC desire after installing Nvidia Plugin and rebooting...

it wont change even if i reboot...

[/URL]

is there a solution other than uninstalling the plugin?
[Android Software Development] *damo*:
Do you have unroll textures or any of the other boxes ticked, if so try unticking them and then reboot

HTC Swyped from my Sensation using XDA Premium
[Android Software Development] deepsleo:
Thanks...paid version definitely works

Thanks Chainfire, the paid version for RipTide definitely works. Its far too awesome with your 3D Pro app. :D
[Android Software Development] jjdoctor:
well I have reduce texture ticked.. unticked and rebooted and that fixed the lock screen..

but this is not the solution.. I need to have chainfire working without Lockscreen bug..:(

Buy the pro version so you can use the per app settings otherwise you have to tick/untick each time you need it

yes it does but read my posts one page back about the lockscreen bug...
[Android Software Development] Sleepycat3:
Just buy the pro version. It is worth it.
[Android Software Development] Kaboosey:
Bought the pro version!

Thank you for this Chainfire!
[Android Software Development] chizzwhizz:
I bought the pro version about a month and a half ago. Performed a full wipe of data and cache last night since I was flashing a new ROM. I used titanium backup to backup my apps so I wouldn't have to pay for pro versions of apps I already bought. After flashing and restoring my apps and data, my phone is unable to read the chainfire pro app...the free one has the option to upgrade to pro and whenever I press it, I am taken to the market where my only option is uninstall (open is greyed out).

If I uninstall and install again will I have to pay for the app again?
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
Just uninstall and reinstall from Market, you don't have to pay again.
[Android Software Development] sacpe25:
will this work on the htc hero thanks in advance .
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
No, it will not.

Hey guys,has anyone managed to play Eternal Legacy on a Galaxy S II?I checked on gameloft's website and it's not available for it yet,so I downloaded a cracked version to see if it works.It plays ok,but after I beat the first boss the game quits with no warning.

If anyone can confirm that the game works,I'm gonna buy it,I'm no pirate.If they had a demo or something I wouldn't even bother with cracked versions.

Thanks! :)
[Android Software Development] tomj777:
I was thinking (and forgive me if this has already been suggested)...

Night mode... It would be cool to set brightness to minimum when entering the mode and restoring the original value on returning to normal mode.
[Android Software Development] arpruss:
I would guess that every user would have a different preferred minimum brightness mode.

If you have a backlit LCD, you might consider my free SuperDim to control both screen brightness and CF3D night mode at the same time. You can make a Night profile that sets CF3D red mode and 10/255 brightness, and a Day profile that turns off nightmode and sets 200/255 brightness. (Sorry for tooting my horn.)
[Android Software Development] tomj777:
Thank you. I think horn tooting for self and for others is quite acceptable where, like this, it is not competing with the OP's thread purpose.

The link to SuperDim doesn't resolve and i can not find it in UK or US markets. Clues?
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
Works for me ... ?

Tried it on Samsung Wave with Android 2.2 port. Doesn't install - says it cannot mount /system read/write, even if I can write to it from a terminal emulator. Is there a way of installing this app via a shell script or update package?
[Android Software Development] SAPPH1RE:
Through cwm?
[Android Software Development] danielt14:
has anyone tried this on a EVO 4G? Im running Synergy Sense ROM right now.
[Android Software Development] arpruss:
The GT-I9100 has an AMOLED screen rather than a backlit screen, I believe, so there is no backlight to control and hence I disabled SuperDim for it.
[Android Software Development] jjdoctor:
isnt my Post worth a little attention? Its really getting pain searching to install plugin.. taking almost 10 mins for each plugin..

please remove the search feature in next update.. we know where the plugin is copied to memory card..there is no need for application to do auto Search
[Android Software Development] taadow1030:
I tried it on King's Alliance Rom. I'm impressed. Didn't try plugins though.
[Android Software Development] arpruss:
On the other hand, even without a backlight, the brightness and nightvision profiles feature of SuperDim may still be useful, so I just posted a new version of SuperDim that should run on non-LCD devices.
[Android Software Development] tomj777:
Thank you. I can see how this is useful and I understand about the screen / backlight.

If I may digress, I rather like your star rendering experiment.

[Android Software Development] fards:
not wanting to take this too far off-topic, but anychance you could pick up chainfire3Ds "custom" night mode?

I really like custom mode with all the sliders set at about 30% in CF3D, (in effect dropping gamma) would be good if that could be included in your app.
[Android Software Development] a user:
no and no.

mind reading at least 2 pages in this thread, no matter which 2 pages? i bet then you know what's the fuzz all about....

ok i'll help you: e.g. you can play tegra only games on your phone :)

but that's only one thing this tool is helpfull for.
[Android Software Development] arpruss:
1. If you have ChainFire3D Pro, SuperDim detects that, and a couple more color modes become supported in SuperDim (dark red, sepia, dark sepia and fuchsia--I like the idea of sepia or dark sepia for reading, and it might be a reason to buy CF3D Pro myself one day; I have no idea who would want fuchsia, but I included it as Cyanogenmod's render fx includes it) by means of the custom color mode feature of CF3D Pro.

2. SuperDim was supposed to save CF3D Pro custom color modes in profiles, but there was a bug in the code (a classic buffer-not-large-enough bug) which prevented that. I fixed this in 1.21 (now uploaded). You still can't set custom color modes (except the four mentioned in point 1) in SuperDim itself, but you can set the custom color mode in CF3D Pro, then save a profile in SuperDim, and the profile should correctly restore the custom mode as needed.

3. Doesn't setting all the sliders to 30% drop your effective color resolution to less than 15-bits? This might not look so good depending on the app.
[Android Software Development] n1ckr0th:
Chainfire, i really love this app and what it does. the custom color option (That was available in the free version before the last update.. ;))

is really amazing. i'm on the Atrix 4G and this app worked perfectly until i updated to Gingerbread. now there is a weird bug when i pull down the notification bar in portrait everything goes side ways and slanty, then reverts to normally in landscape. i have traced this to chainfire being the problem since this goes away after i uninstall the driver.
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
It's a known issue, but I haven't found the fix yet. Can you possibly take a picture or screenshot of the effect ?
[Android Software Development] ozzyita:
I have Desire HD with android revolution 5.1.1, when I go to install, search the plugins I keep getting the msg ( no plugins found) anyone else had this problem?

[Android Software Development] a user:
how are the plugins named and where did you put them. oh and you don't mean by plugins the source code that is attached in the op?
[Android Software Development] tolis626:
I hope he actually did copy the plugins to the SD Card. :rolleyes: :p

We should also mention that the plugins shouldn't be unzipped.The app searches for the zip files,not the .so ones. :)
[Android Software Development] a user:
yep. once one guy here put the zipped source code files. well, it was an understandable mistake due to the name of the files.

@chainfire: the best thing about this app is that it makes it easier for me to wait till next year for a new phone, knowing that neither tegra2 or other similar devices will give me anything i do not already enjoy with my desire hd :D
[Android Software Development] rkaplan2:
I've heard mention that Galaxy on Fire 2 THD now works flawlessly for the Samsung Galaxy S2 on CF3D and 2.3.4 firmware. Can anyone confirm this? I'm currently updating Cognition ROM now to find out.
[Android Software Development] tolis626:
Well,you're going to read it too. ;)

Some hours ago I decided to go back to GOF2 as Eternal Legacy didn't work for me(will buy it when I get money).To my great suprise,it worked ok.No disappearing text,no black rectangles in the sky,no stars vanishing,no nothing.Plus,it looks absolutely gorgeous with 16X MSAA.

Chainfire,I think your search for why it didn't work is over. :D
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
Cool!

I had some people from ARM on the phone a few days ago and we talked about various issues I saw with various games and what may be the cause, they did mention they recently fixed a number of issues that may be related to various problems we have seen with various games. If this is the result of these fixes, than these fixed were picked up by Samsung really really fast.

Almost makes me wonder if the Dungeon Defenders problem is fixed ...
[Android Software Development] rkaplan2:
Excellent! Thank you very much :) Gonna try it out once I'm done flashing. Strange that updating to 2.3.4 firmware from 2.3.3 fixes the graphical issues with GOF2? I'm no expert developer, but I don't see how much could have changed to fix these sort of things from the two firmware versions. Glad it does though! No more Tegra 2 BS stopping us now!
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
If it was a driver-related issue, it's no surprise an update would fix it ;)
[Android Software Development] tolis626:
Yep.As a developer I have no experience,but as a gamer and PC geek I do.Even some minimal bugs in the GPUs drivers can cause strange issues in games.For instance I remember when I used to play NFS:Most Wanted(Now that's a game I'd like my phone to play :D ),there was an error in my driver which caused the city buildings dissapear for some moments.So yes,that is the most logical explanation. ;)
[Android Software Development] tolis626:
Now that's the question I wanted to hear.I can play it on my Desire HD but,hell,after having played with the Galaxy S II,I find that the DHD lags like hell in 3D intensive games.

You want someone for testing?If yes,you just found your guy. ;)
[Android Software Development] tolis626:
Well,I just tried Dungeon Defenders and it starts,but it quits with no warning before I even make it through the menu.I even got into the level for a second but it crashed.I tried using 24bit depth buffer but nada,zip.

Hope you sort it out (too) Chainfire. :)
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
Well in this case I can actually fight the symptom so it'll work, but its a hellish effort to actually code this (and still a work-in-progress). The actual problem itself is one of the things that might have gotten fixed in this update, unfortunately it wasn't. I know some other people are working on it too, though .... :)
[Android Software Development] rkaplan2:
Spoke too soon :( GOF2 THD was working on SGS2 perfectly, but I exited the game and played again later, and it was back to black and white boxes.

I went to uninstall the application and try re-downloading from the Market entirely (before trying every combination of settings through CF3D + nVidia plugin). When I went to re-download, it kept saying "File read error has occurred" and cancelling the 570 MB download.

I uninstalled/reinstalled CF3D driver, re-did plugins, etc. Fix Market. And now GOF2 THD won't even show up in the Market altogether :(

EDIT: May be a bad ROM flash, had some other problems since I updated to 2.3.4. Re-flashing to see if this is the problem.
[Android Software Development] tolis626:
Don't reflash,it's the plugins.Uninstall and reinstall all of them.If it still doesn't work,try redownloading them.It has happened to me too. :)
[Android Software Development] tolis626:
Well,let's hope that people in ARM and/or Samsung do their jobs properly so we can do ours. ;)

Bug: Chainfire3D Pro v2.8 EGL + live dmesg v2.2 + live logcat v2.2

Chainfire, I thought I should report the following:

I'm using "live dmesg" and "live logcat" in split screen, as well as Chainfire3D Pro. All is well using the normal CF3D driver.

Today when I enabled 4xMSAA for a game (Order & Chaos) using the CF3D beta EGL driver required, I noticed that using this driver the split screen logs on boot are no longer visible. The screen is blank for the period of time dmesg/logcat should be showing. After that, things are back to normal.

All the apps in question being from your hand, I think this would be worth looking into for a fix. Or, if there's a simple action to fix this locally, please let me know.

Specs: Galaxy S II, Lite'ning ROM 2.2 XXKG1 (Gingerbread 2.3.4, CF-Root 4.1/CMW 4.0.0.2), Chainfire3D Pro v2.8, live dmesg v2.2, live logcat v2.2.

Thanks for making these excellent tools.

[edit] Resolved the issue by completely reinstalling all packages mentioned.

Did you notice Nightmode breaks "fade out" transition effect on windows?

Like if you go to android settings and then quit, the window disappears without a transparency effect, no more smooth transition feeling.

Yeah, that's rather minor anyway... :D
[Android Software Development] Chainfire:
Have you tried completely reinstalling both CF3D and live logcat / dmesg ? I'm running all the same things (except I use stock instead of Lite'ning) and the combination works fine for me.

Works fine here. Device / ROM / etc specifics?
[Android Software Development] Tatsuya79:
Galaxy S i9000, Juwe's 5.1 JVQ (GB 2.3.4), Talon kernel 3.1.

I had the same bug on latest hardcore kernel and on JVP before. It's the same on every nightmode be it RGB or a particular unicolor preset and was here on versions before 2.8 too. Standard open gl or ES doesn't make a difference.

As soon as I disable Nightmode, fade out is working again.

The fade out effect of launcher pro when getting out of the 3D app drawer is working though, but every other one is not. Tried other launchers but it didn't help, doesn't seem to be a launcher pro particular conflict.
