Introduction

This is an attempt at making Minecraft Java work on jailbroken iOS. - Minimum requirements include: a device running iOS 12 or newer.

Building

Requirements:

-- Mac OS X (tested: 10.15) and the XCode (tested: 11.7.0) - JDK 8 installed Gradle to build the Java part. MINECRAFT PROFILES Cmake, fakeroot, the wget and ldid packages. In this directory, you can run the packages.

What is the process?

- Use OpenJDK 16 from Procursus to get the actual Java environment. MetalANGLE is used for OpenGL ES to Metal translator. - Use GL4ES for OpenGL to OpenGL ES translator. - Use our LWJGL3 iOS port. Use the same launch method that we use for Android.

Current status

Java Runtime Environment: OpenJDK 16. LWJGL3 iOS port: works OpenGL GL4ES Did Minecraft recognize OpenGL OpenAL: Use @kcat's openalsoft input pipe implementation for account authentication. Does it work? Partial. At present only Minecraft 1.14+ fully works. - Forge won’t work, Fabric and OptiFine will.

Problems that are known

Mojang authentication might not work. However, you can copy the logged-in account JSON from Android. Camera is jumped at random points upon the first tap. - 1.12.2 and below only render a tiny panorama in the bottom left corner. Other versions can crash for various reasons like Narrator crash etc... - It could crash at times but try it again until you can confirm that it works.

Installing OpenJDK 16

For Chimera/Odyssey bootstrap

For other jailbreak bootstrap

- Download openjdk-16.jre.deb - Install and open Filza File manager. - Go to the location where the .deb file downloaded. Then, open it and click Install. If everything is in order it will end up with the setting up ....
