The methods I give in this tutorial are tried & tested by myself, and are safe to use providing they are followed correctly. The methods and techniques are not sanctioned by Apple, and could void your warranty. Follow these steps at your own risk!
_.-._I Didn’t Crack The Firmware, Or compile the Gamez so all games are 1 download. But I did and was the first to make this tutorial, This is not Copied, But the Cracks and Compiled Gamez are. So...Therefore I didn’t copy this. Plus I brought it to this site(RE) so don’t bitch & complain and give me hell bout copying this tutorial. At least I hooked you guys up with free iPod games, Not having to buy shit!!_.-._
.:-The Mod/Purpose-:.
For those that want iTunes games on their iPod at no cost, Also without having to Authorize your iTunes to get them synced to your iPod(UnLike CaptainPiles’s "How To Add Games To An Ipod Video" egg)(No Offense to you CaptainPiles. Just that I wanted games and I didn’t have a credit card to authorize an account on iTunes)
.:-Things You Will Need-:.
1. iPod Video 30,60,or 80gb(Not Sure about Nanos,If someone wants to experiment and finds out this will work on Nano’s pm me and let me know so I can put it in here)
(Click on "iPod Wizard v1.2,v1.2d, to get a direct link)
_.-Simple Steps-._
-.:-_1_-:.-
Plug in iPod, Bring iTunes up, Go Over to the "Games" tab and untick "Sync Games". Then click Apply. Then Close out of iTunes
-.:-_2_-:.-
Next, Download either one of these Patched FirmWare Files(Patched to make it so you can play games on the iPod) that meets your criteria or version of iPod.(5th Gen. 30GB,60GB,80GB)
Now that you have the Patched FirmWare that fits your iPod video 5th Gen., Or 5.5 Gen. It’s time to put that Patched FirmWare file into your iPod. So open iPod Wizard Version 1.2d.Wait for iPod to be mounted into iPod Wizard v1.2d.
Then find the "Edit Mode" in the top left hand corner, Then drop down the mode menu, Select "Firmware File".
After that, It’s time to open/find your specific firmware file. So click "Open Firmware" then Navigate to either "Firmware5GPatched",Or "Firmware" folder witch ever one you need to fit your iPod version.Ex. Mine was the "Firmware" folder witch I think was the iPod 5.5 Gen. Patched firmware file.
Next, Click open, If you see a lil box come up loading a bunch of stuff thats good. That means it’s loading the patched firmware into iPod Wizard in turn meaning you can write it you your iPod.
Now, Follow directions closely, After iPod Wizard loaded the Patched into iPod Wizard it’s time to actually put/"Write" it to your iPod. So...Up by "Firmware Information" next to the "CheckSum" info and stuff it’ll have to buttons. "Write", And "Write to iPod". Click the "Write to iPod." It will then ask if you are sure. Click "Yes" then follow the rest of the questions it asks you. Answer them questions to where it will proceed to write to your iPod. I just forget what the other question/questions are because I already have mine modded and I don’t want to remodd it.Now that it’s on your iPod, Proceed by going up to the right hand corner of iPod Wizard v1.2d and up where you saw it was mounted to iPodWizard. "iPodWizard Essentials" is where there is three buttons that are "Downgrade Firmware","Eject",And "Tweaks", Click on "Eject"...After that the pc will kick your iPod out. Once it has restarted itself it will have this blue screen that says "Apple Os","Disk Mode",And "Sleep". Highlight "Apple Os" and select it,(This is all on your iPod now, Not in iPod Wizard or anything.)Selecting it will then take you back to your iPod "Main Menu".NOTE!!! If you have changed strings,A Theme,Font...Then it might be changed to the regular iPod interference. So..you will have to remodd that part.(Meaning put a theme back on it,Also a font, and your strings.)Sorry bout this but it has to happen in order for you to get free games and be able to play them.
CONGRATS You’ve just put a Patched Firmware File on your iPod, Allowing you to play games.BUT NOT SO FAST..You have to actually download from a selection of games then extract them, Then copyin’ them and pasting them into a folder that has to be made in order for the Pod to recognize the games.So keep reading.
-.:-_4_-:.-
Time to Download some games for the iPod, So go ahead and look threw these games and decide witch ones you want.It’s All FREE
-._GaMeZ DoWnLoAdInG Section_.-
Notice!!! You need WinRAR to extract these. So Google it and Get the Free Trial Version, Also When you go to download a game...When it asks if you want to "Open" or "Save" to your HD(HardDrive).Always Press "Save" And remember where you save the game at on your HD. Also Save all the other games there to so you don’t lose where one is at!!
So you’ve downloaded all the gamez you want for your iPod Video 5th Gen. Time to actually put them into your iPod, So to start this step out, Connect your iPod if it isn’t, Close iTunes if it is open.(If you havn’t unticked the "Sync Games" checkbox under the Gamez tab in iTunes you need to go back to the top where it explains how to do that)So again make sure your pod is connected,and iTunes is closed down. Then Proceed by doing this.Click "Start" on your browser, Go to "My Computer", Find and go into your iPod’s drive name/drive letter.
Need to be able to see "Hidden Folders". To do this go up to the top of your window. Find and click "Tools",It then drops down some places to go under "Tools", proceed by going to "Folder Options".Next another window pops up and your now in "Folder Options", Click on the "View Tab", Go down to the "Advanced Settings Zone",Then go down. Under the "Advanced Settings Zone" there will be topics such as "Files And Folders", and "Hidden Files and Folders". Go under the topic named "Hidden Files And Folders". Find the option with the bubble next to it to fill that says."Show Hidden Files And Folders." Bubble the bubble in next to it and then click " Apply" then "OK".
You should now see a folder that isn’t as bright yellow as the others that says "iPod_Control". Go into "iPod_Control" folder and either "Right Click" and go down to new, then go back to the top of the top and click "Folder", Making you a new folder to rename as "Games_Ro"(Without the parenthase’s), Or go to "File" then "New", Then "Folder", witch ever way you like best. Then like I said before rename that folder as "Games_Ro", except with out the parathese’s.
So you’ve made the "Games_Ro" folder. Time to actually put some gamez into this iPod by putting games into that folder(Games_Ro). So...How to do that is you navigate to where you put all your games you donwloaded off here. Then "Extract" the compressed folder so you have just the 5 numbered/lettered folder. Then right click on the folder and click copy. Then go back into your "Games_Ro" folder and paste it into that folder. Then it’ll copy all the game files into that 5 numbered/lettered folder and you’ll then have that game in your iPod. Now just all you have to do is "Safely Remove HardWare" your iPod, So go down where your clock is on your browser and click it then find your iPod and disconnect it. Then you will have a game you can play, that you like,That you downloaded with out paying.!!CONGRATS you’ve just patched your iPod so you can play free games you download off here. Have a FUN time playing these games on your pod.
