Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/LiveContainer/LiveContainer/issues/329

Describe the issue

Infinity blade 1 , 2 and 3 don't work

I've tried community patches but I assume it's the same for non patched anyway

It opens up the game, and either crashes instantly, or within 20 seconds

Here are the links

Instructions to reproduce

Described above

What version of LiveContainer are you using?

Version 3.2.0-release (main/7ac835f)

Other

No response

I've fixed this issue by enabling bypass assert queue (wrote by heart idk). Just letting you know.

But controls do not work properly, and game was cropped to the point where it was unplayable for some reason on my Iphone 15 pro. I couldn't see any hp bars nor the shield bar. (This is only valid for Infinity Blade 1, the other games work fine.)

Can you explain what you mean by wrote by heart ? Can you be more specific ?

The other games still are very small right ? Like just a little square in the middle

Hold-click on Infinity Blade 3 and enable the AssertBypassQueue setting in the livecontainer — that should prevent it from crashing. Unfortunately, Infinity Blade 1 is unplayable. Maybe you could tag the developer to ask why the games look so cropped?

Also, since the infinity saga games are very old, they technically don't require JIT, but you should still enable it for better stability.

All of them works for me. Make sure you are using the beta version from HugeBlack’s action tab.

Livecontainer. Besides, Infinity Blade 2 is also cropped, so it is unplayable.

As for the cropped UI, see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75262066/ios-app-not-using-full-height-of-the-screen

Since IB series are relatively old games, it only supports certain fixed resolutions. When installed directly, iOS falls back to resolutions of these old devices. However, since LiveContainer declares itself as a modern app, iOS also stretches the app running inside, which is IB3, resulting in the cropped UI.

Since this declaration is written in Info.plist, SpringBoard reads it before app is launched, and there's no way to tell SpringBoard to fallback to old resolutions, this cropped UI cannot be fixed.

I might be wrong but the modded versions can play in full screen , I think . Idk if LiveContainer supports them tho
