Since many people here in G3 forum, wonder how to make Chaifire3D run on their G3, I found it a good idea to start a thread about it :D

The first things you need to know about chainfire is that this app was designed for devices with a Clockspeed of more than 1Ghz so for experience the Chainfire effects you need to Overclock your G3 to 1Ghz or more :p
Chainfire is for ROOTED phones only


How to setup Chainfire:

Download chaifire
Free version
https://market.android.com/details?id=eu.chainfire.cf3d
Pro version
https://market.android.com/details?id=eu.chainfire.cf3d.pro

I recomend the Pro version because there are more advanced options avallable (like per-app openGL settings)

To get Chainfire fully working, you need to install the plugins (since I'm not alowed to post URL's to warez just Google them and you'll find them)
These files are named:
libGLEMU_NVIDIA.so
libGLEMU_POWERVR.so
libGLEMU_QUALCOMM.so

After downloading all the needed files put them on the root of your SD

STEP 1
Open Chainfire

STEP 2
Click install CF3D driver -> Your phone will reboot

STEP 3
Click "install plugins" your phone will search to the plugin files you've put on the root of your SD card just click the files and install them.

STEP 4
I recommend to reboot your phone now

STEP 5
Start Chainfire again and go to Default openGL settings (for those who have the Pro-version i recommend to go to Per-app openGL settings so the effects will only be used for a certain app)

STEP 6
Click on the option "Use Plugin" the plugin that worked the best for me was the QUALCOMM so i recommend that one :)

STEP 7
Select the option reduce texture size (in some games this removed the gray textures and show the colored textures with reduced size)

STEP 8
Enjoy playing new games on your G3 :p

THE GAMES THAT WORKED FOR ME BY USING CHAINFIRE:
Need for speed,asphalt 5, raging thunder etc.
games in fpse like Tekken 3, Gran turismo 2

If you know a game that can be added to this list feel free to post :D

EDIT: SINCE MY SU BINAIRIES ARE UPDATED CHAIFIRE HAS STOPPED WORKING I'M CURRENTLY WAITING FOR A PM FROM CHAINFIRE SO SCREENSHOTS ETC WILL HAVE TO WAIT
I'M SORRY

EDIT: THANKS TO USER NZtechfreak WITH THE FIX FOR THE SU BINARIES CHAINFIRE WORKS ON EVERY ROM :p
Please leave a thanks on his post :p



FYI version 2.8 was the one that worked the best on our phone DONT POST ANY WAREZ PLEAS

I was looking for this to a time ago but couldn't find a guide on how to install this so after some experimenting this was my way to get Chainfire working on my G3 :p

And "hard labour" don't exaggerate :D
experimenting with my G3 = fun :D
btw thanks for thanking ;)

The need for speed was a modded version for the X8 i think don't know the link anymore will search for it :)
The PlayStation games for fpse (tekken and grand turismo) I ripped them myself from my old PlayStation games but there will be somewhere a site with iso's from those games i think :)

EDIT: I've searched for this more then a quarter of an hour but couldn't find a good link for the modded version...sorry

The first time I installed Chainfire I made a backup from this app because it was working perfect and I knew that the app was still in development stage and would propably change since its for high-end devices(my pc is full of apps from different versions :D)
i forced to don't install any updates automatically etc so I'm currently using version 2.8 an it works perfectly so search for this version :)

EDIT:
DAMN I just tried it myself and it closes indeed without any reason!?
The reason why its closing in seconds I honestly cant tell...
So we've to ask Chainfire (the XDA member who developed this app) for more info...

EDIT: NOW I CANT GO BACK TO MY PREVIOUS CF3D!?
owkey its time to ask Chainfire now!!

Actually for almost all the higher games you need an oc phone certainly when using chainfire :)
Do you mean a list for games that work with chainfire or?
Since my su binaries updated, chainfire doesn't work anymore so
I've PM Chainfire (the dev) for more info and currently I'm waiting for an answer so I'll tell you more if Chainfire works again :D
