Guaranteed To Work Simple Guide For iOS11 & Xcode 9.1

[mic773]

Like you, after updating to the latest xcode and iOS my project refused to compile with various errors. No one wants to mess with installing ipa files, so just follow this simple guide and you will have ScummVM on your device in no time:

1. Using your favorite text editor, copy and paste the following code and save as prepare_workspace.sh (the code below is modified and isn't the one found online. If you have a previous prepare_workspace.sh file delete it and use this!):

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
LIBS_ZIP_URL="https://www.scummvm.org/frs/build/scummvm-ios7-libs.zip"
LIBS_ZIP_FILENAME="scummvm-libs.zip"
GIT_REPO_URL="https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm.git"

# Clone the repository
git clone "$GIT_REPO_URL"

# Compile create_project
(cd scummvm/devtools/create_project/xcode; xcodebuild)

# Create the workspace
mkdir build
cd build
curl -L "$LIBS_ZIP_URL" -o "$LIBS_ZIP_FILENAME"
unzip "$LIBS_ZIP_FILENAME"
rm "$LIBS_ZIP_FILENAME"

../scummvm/devtools/create_project/xcode/build/Release/create_project ../scummvm --xcode --enable-fluidsynth --disable-bink --disable-mt32emu --disable-nasm --disable-opengl --disable-theora --disable-taskbar --disable-libcurl --disable-sdlnet
open scummvm.xcodeproj

2. Make a folder named "ScummVM" anywhere you want. Inside, drop the prepare_workspace.sh script file.

3. Open a new terminal window, nevigate to your ScummVM folder (cd ScummVM) and copy-paste the below line then press enter:

Code: Select all

chmod +x prepare_workspace.sh ; ./prepare_workspace.sh

4. Once Xcode launches, make sure Product Name in build settings is ScummVM (case sensitive!, see example: https://i.imgur.com/WyxBDsQ.png).

One you do that, compile and it will work 100%.

BONUS FIX TO APP ICON

The app icon for ScummVM has been messed up from day one. The creators use a rounded corner image instead of a boxed image which makes it look off in iOS. See comparison here (original on the left): https://i.imgur.com/bLW59O3.jpg.

To fix do the following:

Download my fixed app icon images: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1R0QrN ... _vfHsKDmxi then unpack replacing all older images into:

/ScummVM/scummvm/dists/ios7/Images.xcassets/AppIcon.appiconset/


Enjoy the classics!

Thank you for the great tutorial.
I followed exactly what you suggested but I get the following error message in the terminal window:

Code: Select all

benjamins-Mac:ScummVM benjamin$ ls
prepare_workspace.sh
benjamins-Mac:ScummVM benjamin$ chmod +x prepare_workspace.sh ; ./prepare_workspace.sh
./prepare_workspace.sh: line 1: {rtf1ansiansicpg1252cocoartf1561: command not found
./prepare_workspace.sh: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `}'
./prepare_workspace.sh: line 2: `{\fonttbl\f0\fswiss\fcharset0 Helvetica;}'
benjamins-Mac:ScummVM benjamin$

Do you have any idea why I get this error?

For information I'm using macOS High Sierra & XCode 9.2 (9C40b).

Thank you in advance for your help

I am guessing you saved your workspace.sh file as rich text. If that is the case you need to convert it to plain text, which you can do in TextEdit (see for example http://osxdaily.com/2012/05/08/convert- ... -mac-os-x/).

how to you solve the provision profile requirement?

I made a plain version of the iOS icon for ScummVM, which is ready for the FUTURE ! (Good bye skeuomorphism, sorry Scott...)

I uploaded it here : http://www.mediafire.com/file/irkcqog7n ... 20icon.zip


@101jtwo : just change the first "scummvm" of the Bundle Identifier in General build infos and select your iTunes account for the Signing Team...
