Background

Origin I discovered the BoardwalkApp a few years ago, which can launch Minecraft Java Edition on Android devices. It's so exciting to see minecraft start on my phone.It's really a curious and interesting project
MCinaBox is an open source project, and the back end is supported by the BoatApp project. And in the efforts of many people to make it run.

Usage

Install

1. Download the lastest APK and runtime pack to your Android phone.
2. Install APK and start it at least one time.
3. Copy the runtime to /sdcard/Android/data/com.aof.mcinabox/files/MCinaBox/runtimepack/
4. Then start APK and find Launcher Set to import the runtime pack.

Play

1. Before you start the game, you need to configure the starter according to the instructions in the software. Until the indicator changes from red to blue.
2. What you need to do includes creating users, modifying the maximum memory, downloading game versions, and creating your own virtual keyboard templates.

Forge

In theory, forge is supported, but we need to make some changes to start it.

1. Copy an installed version of forge from your computer to /sdcard/mcinabox/.minecraft/, including libraries and versions
2. Launch it in MCinaBox at least one time. (As a result, it can't be started)
3. Edit /sdcard/MCinaBox/.minecraft/config/splash.properties to change enabled=true to enabled=false to close forge loading animation.
4. Try to launch forge again.It's going to be black for a while, but it's usually useful

Matters needing attention

1. Mipmap will cause rendering problems. Please turn it off in Minecraft settings - video settings - mipmap=0
