Ipad 3 Question - newbie

Post by zimsjim »

I'm a noob, so really don't understand a ton of the nomenclature and terms. I apologize in advance.

Can someone tell me what I need to do to play these games and get Scummvm on my Ipad3? It's jailbroken, i have cydia, etc... but as far as that goes, i'm lost...

thank you

For information on loading ScummVM and games onto your IPhone/IPad, please consult the relevant wiki page: http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/IPhone

@gerryreid: Please try with the latest development daily build, rather than the v1.5.0 release:
http://buildbot.scummvm.org/builds.html

This just replaces the binaries loaded onto your device by the v1.5.0 installation.

If this fails to run, please describe the symptoms and you may want to try replacing the ScummVM executable, ScummVM.app with the IPhone 5+ version, ScummVM-iph5.app from the build tarball.
This is designed for A6+ CPUs so shouldn't be needed for the A5 CPU in the IPad 3... but worth a try.

I would love to play ye point-and-click games of olde on my iPad 2, but jailbraking makes me kind of nervous. I'm worried about all the things tha could go wrong e.g. turning it into an expensive paperweight. :(
