Bring your game
Supply your own Dead Space Mobile for Xperia Play v1.1.33 APK, ZIP, or extracted folder. Put it in ports/deadspace/; the donor filename does not matter and the first launch extracts and validates it automatically. Keep the port release named deadspace-native-arm.zip. Wait for PortMaster's Finished running autoinstall dialog, then reboot normally before looking for the game in Ports. The supported native-library SHA1 is 0ed42b611415015807f759ec9b5457857143ce39. No game data is included. Display resolution is detected automatically; put WIDTHxHEIGHT in resolution.txt to override it.
Install the port
- Update PortMaster. Copy deadspace-portmaster.zip into its
autoinstall/folder and open PortMaster. - Copy the owned game files into
deadspace-portmaster/as described above. Launch Dead Space from your ports menu.
