+ | **Changing scaling algorithm** (16 January 2019 and later builds)\\ | ||
+ | Using integer and/or nearest-neighbour scaling may improve display quality (crispier, but more jagged) when a low resolution screen of the emulator is displayed full screen on a high resolution monitor. Integer and nearest-neighbour scaling can be applied by adding these lines to the preferences file: | ||

+ | SheepShaver identifies itself as a 100MHz machine to software running on it. Although the reported 100MHz is unrelated to the actual speed, some software may show a message that it will not run because it needs a faster machine. The reported CPU speed can be changed by adding a cpuclock item to the preferences file: | ||
+ | cpuclock 200 | ||
+ | This line wil make SheepShaver identify itself as a 200MHz machine. Note that this setting does not change the actual speed! | ||
