The Secret of Monkey Island SE for iPhone

July 25, 2009 in Hacking | 2 comments

If you have a jailbroken iPhone, you may have some issues with playing The Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition. It seems that the installation does not set-up the necessary directory permissions needed to support the save game functions.

Simply changing the permissions of /var/mobile/Applications/<id>/Documents, and /var/mobile/Applications/<id>/tmp to 775, and then re-booting your iPhone should be enough to fix the issue. In order to do that, you’ll first need SSH access to your iPhone.

    My tmp folder in that I found in /var/mobile/Applications/monkey1/tmp there is nothing…
    does it mean that I have to change the name of the folder from “tmp” to “775″?
    Thanks if you answer.

    Hi,

    No, you can change the permissions using the chmod command. Something like ‘chmod 775 /var/mobile/Applications//Documents /var/mobile/Applications//tmp’ should do the trick. Remembering to substitute with an actual directory :)

    Cheers.
