What you need:
1. xclannad (from http://cydia.myrepospace.com/snipelimited/)
2. A Key visual novel already installed to your PC (e.g. Clannad)
3. A jailbroken iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch
4. i-FunBox (preferred method to transfer files from PC to iOS)
How to install:
1 – From your iDevice, Open Cydia and click on “Manage”
2 – Click on “Sources” and add this source: http://cydia.myrepospace.com/snipelimited
3 – Click on “Search”, find and install xClannad.
4 – Open i-FunBox on your PC and connect your iDevice to it.
5 – Create a folder in “var/mobile/Media” and name it “ons”. Then create another folder in “ons” and name it “Clannad”.
6 – Transfer all these folders from the game you want to play into “var/mobile/Media/ons/Clannad”:
BGM
DAT
G00
GAN
MOV
SYS
WAV
KOE
7 – Transfer these files into the same directory as well:
seen.txt
GAMEEXE.INI
default.ttf (You can use any font but make sure to rename it to default.ttf)
8 – Now safely remove your iDevice from your PC and start playing!
Notes: So far I’ve tried playing Clannad and Little Busters! and they run prefectly well on my iPhone 3G.

Excuse me, have you try it with LB Ex? And voice?
It apparently either:
a) crashes at time and won’t work, or
b) gets overpowered by the BGM. I suggest you leave the KOE folder out.
If you still want to try though, add the KOE folder into the directory.
LB Ex will work; they use the same file formats as the original LB.
What is PDT? I dont have that folder in game directory.
Ah, the PDT folder is basically some link to their troubleshoot page. It’s not needed at all. Updated my posts, thanks for pointing out my error.
One more question, do you know how to install both 2 games (ex kanon & clannad)?
If you used the easy method, you can only install one game at a time. That’s the limitation unfortunately.
It crashes before the menu screen appears. I have tried leaving out the KOE folder but nothing changed. Any possible solutions? Thank you.
What iOS firmware are you using? Did you follow all the steps in order? And which game did you tested?
I’m currently on IOS 4.2.1 on a 2G ipod and I’m pretty sure I have followed all the steps. I have tried with clannad(no voice) and it had worked but it did not with LBEX.
Btw does it work with LBEX if I convert the BGM NWA files into ogg files? I did that with clannad and it worked
You can try converting them into ogg, since xclannad supports that format. I’m not sure about the EX version, but maybe you try to find your answer here: http://tsuuun.blogspot.com/p/clannad.html
Uhm, i’m having the same problem with LBEX here. Have you solved it yet?
Since i’m using an iP 3g 3.1.3, i dont think the firmware is the problem here. Maybe the LB EX itself cant be played with this onscipter ._.”
would the error file be of any help?
I don’t think that is necessary~
It does not work on the iPad, iOS 5.1 for some reason. Any ideas why?
xclannad crashes on my iPhone 3GS (iOS 5.0) as well. I’ve followed all instructions properly, and I can’t figure out why it’s going wrong.
Could you try with an older firmware (like 4.2.1)? I have a feeling it works for older firmware only. I can’t try out now as my iPhone is 4.2.1.
I have the same problem with dx8519 here, it crashes before the menu screen appears. Can anyone solve it?
Btw, i’m using an iP 3g run iOS 3.1.3, so i dont think the firmware version is the problem here. Maybe LB ex cant be played with onScripter for some reasons?
