Introduction

This is an attempt to get Minecraft Java run on a jailbroken iOS. The minimum requirements for this are: Device must be running iOS 12 or higher.

Building

Requirements:

-- Mac OS X (tested: 10.15) (tested: 10.5) - (tested: 11.7.0) - XCode (tested: 11.7.0) - JDK 8 installed gradle to build Java part. Cmake, wget, fakeroot, dpkg, and ldid to install the package. Then, run the package in this directory.

What is the process?

- Use OpenJDK 16 from Procursus to get real Java environment. - Use MetalANGLE for OpenGL Metal translator -> ES. - Use GL4ES to use the OpenGL to OpenGL ES translator. - Use our LWJGL3 iOS port. - Use the same launch method as the PojavLauncher Android.

Current status

Java Runtime Environment: OpenJDK 16. LWJGL3 iOS port works OpenGL The GL4ES did Minecraft recognize OpenGL? OpenAL: use @kcat's Openal-soft Input pipe implementation to authenticate your account (partial). Does it work? Partial. Currently, Minecraft 1.14+ is fully functional. - Forge will not work however Fabric and OptiFine will.

Problems that are known

- Mojang authentication might not work, but copying the json of your account from Android will work. - Camera position will be moved to a random position on the first touch. - 1.12.2 and below only render a tiny panorama at bottom left corner. - Other versions will crash due to a variety of reasons, including Narrator crash etc... - It might crash occasionally, but try launch again until you are sure it working.

Installing OpenJDK 16

For Chimera/Odyssey bootstrap

- Add Procursus repository (https://apt.procurs.us). Install java-16-openjdk.

To unlock other jailbreaks, use the bootstrap

Download openjdk-16-jre.deb. Then, Hypedpvp and install it. Then, go to the location the location where the .deb file downloaded. Then, open it and click Install. It will close with the setting up .... when everything is working fine.
