How to install 2D and 3D Games from USB in Pandora 3D With .xml file
This guide explains how to install new games from USB.

You must have free space on the sdcard to install games.
Put the file “/mcgames/install.txt” in the root folder of the usb with a list of games to install, each game in a row. The file must be in UTF-8 encoding.
The name of the game is the primary key of the database (cannot be repeated) and you must create a folder with the same name into /mcgames/ for each game.
For each folder, you have to add the desired game and create a xml file with the properties of the game. The name of the xml has to be the same than the name of the folder. For each game, you can add a mp4 video in the same folder, with the name of the game ending with .mp4
