Hi everyone,

After suffering a failure with portal 2(snif), I decided to try another game.

I successfully launch Counter Strike : Source on the Shield Tablet.

This is a proof of concept so there is a lots of bugs, thank you for your comprehension.

Edit2: First video(uncut), game at 1:18


First screen

Edit : Wrong section xD due to the excitation, Shield instead of Shield Tablet but it's the same think, it works on both x)

Hello! It seems that you, I, and @legofan623 are the only ones interested in this type of thing. If you want, I can give you a few pointers to help you overcome many issues.
Now, I don't know the specifics of CS:S, but I know Portal 2 will not run on an outdated engine (meaning that only NVIDIA would be able to make it work).
To get rid of those "ERROR" textures, you need to go through the games files and un-capitalize the name of every file you see. On larger games, this would require using a bulk-renaming tool. If you want me to help you out with this at all, just let me know. :)
I just watched from the video and I'm sorry to say that I don't think this is going to work. It is unlikely that multiplayer or weapons would be possible using an older client.

CSS is a mod of Half Life 2 so the game engine is really near.

For Portal 2, i did not do too many illusions x).

No worry about the error textures, that's my fault and i really know how fix that(by the way already fixed the first day). No need a bulk renaming tool i find a other way for launch larger games.

Don't be sorry, the only missing is the overlay which is start the game, i need rewrite some lib.

Progress?

Hey matyas69 I'm a developer and am very interested in this project. I was wondering how you went about doing it. Also what is the progress on it. And do you need any help. Me and a friend have been interested in porting some source games to shield for a while and would be more than happy to help you out on this project. I really want to see this happen
