Half Life 2/Portal mod packs optimized for Nvidia Shield - Shield General

So now that its possible to install some mods to our shields, Im just wondering if we can start a new thread posting modpacks compatible with the shield. Im making this so people can find mods easier and know that they work without having to do a lot of trial and error.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/18qd0mpaskgx180/hl2.zip?dl=0
Heres my custom pack with a couple random mods i found to start off with. If this is in the wrong forum, then its okay to delete this thread, i just wasnt sure where else to put this because HL2 for android and Pc work differently and im not sure where else to put it because not alot of people have a nvidia shield.
Edit: So here the link to the mods list, which public editing is allowed so any more mods people find that work, you can add it to the list. Be sure to include the link to the mod and what kind of mod it is.
Portal: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1W_7jzPNYobvVKnOoEe-dy2kVRoWl85kKu8F6PL5-ROI/edit?usp=sharing
Half-Life 2: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1m-DjLFVBe-XDsfwgx_3xGyFRhwTE1jDY_1w02ii4WXs/edit?usp=sharing
Half-Life 2 EP1: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15CIfgPCFWiiMOfipB-Af3xgtw54ILVoLT9gZXg52n3c/edit?usp=sharing
Half-Life 2 EP2: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yYV5K7joK7YjFpL0bcz9xnHH26HeHxRH8GoIJRERPaE/edit?usp=sharing

I think this is a great idea! Let's hope that some people who tried out mods, will contribute. You could add an openly accessible Google Doc file (i think that's possible), so in order to create a compatibility list that everyone can add to.

I was thinking the same thing, should i make a list seperating half life 2 and its episodes? Or just keep it all in one list?

I'd say, separate it by Half Life, its episodes and Portal. Nobody has cleared yet, whether or not there are any differences in the engines that run each of those games (except for the obvious difference with Portal), but i saw that some Half Life 2 mods require Episode 1 and 2. So there might be a difference. Or it's just using it's resources, i'm still not sure. As soon as i'm done playing through all the original games (just finished Half Life 1, which i wanted to do before getting back to part 2), i'm definitely going to try out some mods myself. It's going to take a while yet though^^.

I'm sorry, i haven't been to this thread in awhile what's going on with mod packs working for the shield? How does it work and when did this become possible?

The only thing that has to be the same is the actual model in the models folder. The textures can be their own name because thats what the model looks for

QFT.
Keep having to jump back and forth between appstore app and amazon in a browser making single changes one at a time, install fails, change this try again install fails, now change this, try again, etc. Took about 6-7 attempts before it was done telling me all the thing it needed re-configured in order to let me install a 99 cent app that will probably be free next week with a tiny M&Ms advert in it.
Whatever, free game!
Just a pain in the ass, no reason why they couldn't have either informed/required all of the changes on the PC page before sending the link to the phone to ask for the changes one at a time, or just sent a friggin APK download link like they did with the appstore apk.
Bloated, over thought.
Finally got it to work, would it be considered wrz if i posted it for the next 12 hours considering its free...
I know it's basically the same game as AB, but it seems so much more polished and AB was already a polished game. Awesome.

[WIP]My Xperia Play Site

Hi, I made a site for the Play. Basically it's meant to host files for devs so people can download Rom's etc. If you're a dev and you want your files hosted just PM me
Here's the site: http://www.xplay-roms.co.cc
It's still a WIP but what do you guys think?
Update 04/09/12: PC crashed, lost original files but rest assured I'll try my best to get it updated, the site still works though
I would love to have a Gin2JellyBean Repository on your website
your site doesnt look that good but i wish you good luck with it
Its nice to have more places to get stuff for our xplays. Out of curiousity Is there any free ways to open a site like yours? And do you have to pay a lot for the storage for the downloads? PM any info if you have a chance. Thanks and good luck with yours.

Looks good to me. It's very simplistic, but I think that's a plus, since people shouldn't get lost trying to find where the heck to actually download the ROMs this way ;D
Free unmemorable domain, using free uninspired web template.
Not a bad effort but nothing I haven't seen 10000x before.

Hi, thanks for the feedback, I'm always interested in your opinions. As for your questions, I pay for the hosting around $40 a year I think and I just registered a free .co.cc domain. Well anyways this was just a quick setup and only a temporary design, I'm planning on re-vamping it soon.
I normally spend a week or two on most sites but this one was a quick 5-10 minute job just using a template. Anyways I'd love to hear your suggestions on expansion and development, if you don't mind?
Oh, and if you have any questions, regarding hosting your files, etc. just PM me -

AVG 2012, website is clean to me. I like how it's simplistic, easy to find stuff. Imo you should upload FW and Binary's recovery for a tools section.
Just a thought/ request.
Been a while sorry but thanks for the suggestions guys. The site is virus free I can assure you, my guess is the domain name ends in .co.cc so that's probably why it was detected as "unsafe". Anyway I've started a complete redesign and I'm uploading some new content so bear with me a while if the site isn't functional - thanks
Site looks great, however I have an option that would be MUCH more convenient .
This is my file host for a game called Minebuilder: www.fileblox.cu.cc
Its got an uploader available to everyone (you can add a password).
This would save you time uploading.
EDIT:
If anyone wants, I will create a sample site, with uploader and sample repositories (with a cool web file browser) and if all goes well, maybe myself and the OP could share our knowledge, or something if the sort
Nice! 2GB's of space would be awesome, but simple uploader has higher priority :3

[MOD][TWEAK]VulpiX

Hello guys, just posting this in here for us to use. i have this up and running on knoxraid and it is amazing.
**this has fixed the wake lag for me, instant screen on and unlock**
Vulpix 3.0
this is a tweak made by @Nitzz (thank you brudda) , i am not the creator of it, but am simply linking this in our forum.
here is the link to the thread with download
1) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2429923
just download it and flash it with SS. from what ive read all that is needed is init.d support and busybox which both roms available in out dev section have.
It seems like this mod is geared more towards lower-end phones. The OP in the link stated that there might be lag on high-end devices due to the RAM tweaks. Thoughts?

Ahh that's cool. I'm running stock ROM and 35953 was my recent score. After freezing a ton of apps. And hibernating of course.
Might be higher if I didn't have Xposed addons and temp reading on all the time..

Gotta be safe I like my current install and homepage and swipepad stuff..

Hey guys, check out this cool app here-
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.helloklick.android
Note:You'll need to buy a really 'cheap on pocket' device to use it which doubles up as a Dust-Plug.. Or rather I should say, it's actually a Dust Plug that doubles up(or even more)..
I just now ordered it and it costed me only US$ 2.24 including shipping money :laugh:
Waiting eagerly for it to arrive to me..
I'm not posting any links here to the device because I'm not sure as to whether it'll be an infringement of XDA's rules.. :angel:
For those who're worried that it might get lost while using earphones-it has a solution to it too..
Last but not least, it couples up with Tasker.. :victory:
Here's a quick video, the version of app is old here though, but it'll familiarize you with the device and the app itself-

I did a quick search and liked the idea but the problem I think would be that in pocket, those 4 buttons could be activated due to its placement on the backside, talking of backside of phone, I use a wallet case for my Note 3 and that wouldn't let me use Dimple.. :laugh:
You know what..
I just now figured out that, the button on the earphone would function like the button on this smart dust plug when one is using the earphone.. :victory:
For those of you interested in it, it's called-
360 Universal 3.5mm Plug One-click Shortcut Key
Pretty long name I know..
But what's in the name..
And the name of the app is Klick
It's available here for download..

Great thing-it won't compromise with the security of your phone.

Battery performance is still fine for me..
I came across Pressy only after I ordered the Smart Dust Plug for myself and realised that the Chinese manufacturers copied this idea too.. :laugh:
Because they weren't required to put in R&D like the Pressy guys did, it costs only a small fraction of it without the need to wait for it to get delivered..
It's sad for the Pressy guys but you just can't stop the Chinese manufacturers..
InPrivate
Could anyone please share the Activation Code of their Pressy, I want to give the related app a try with my Dust Plug. .
