Re: BasiliskII for Windows

I apologize for bringing this up again but can anyone verify that Apeiron's mouse works in the current build? If it does, can you specify what ROM you are using? I tried the Quadra 650 ROM just now and it did not work either. Same story as before, works in the menus but not in-game. I also can't ge...

Re: Installer Impasse

Hi. I'm new to this so bear with me please. I'm trying to install ClarisWorks 3 on minivMac running OS 6.0.8, and the installer stalls when it asks for a swap of disk 2 for 1. Is there anything I can do to get disk 2 recognized, or am I out of luck? I've tried having all 4 disks on the desktop befo...

Re: Qemu-system-m68k for macOS to run MacOS 7.1-8.1

It sure is picky about booting from CD images. Finally got it to a desktop and the installer using a Mac OS 8.1 ISO. It did not like any of the 7.x images I threw at it. Do .toast images work? I'm surprised at how many images just wouldn't boot (stuck at the blinking ?). This excellent CD, "Ap...

Re: Iraq Attack

it plays well in Mini vMac Macintosh II (16 culours). You can alter the speed by pressing ctrl+S and selecting your speed from there.

P.S.

It's also playable in Executor for DOS, running on MS-DOS 6.22 in 86Box, with VGA graphics.

Re: Basilisk II Can't recognize .DMG

i booted SheepShaver with a DiskTools85_PPC floppy, with a blank 200MB HDD and the ISO in volumes, then installed it to the HDD from there. It won't work in Basilisk II, it's PPC only.

Use HFVExplorer to copy the SIT from Windows to your 8.1 HD, then use Stuffit Expander 5.5 to unstuff it from there.

Re: Hexen II Mac OS 9.0.4

The version shown in the Basilisk II video is Hexen - Beyond Heretic, I've tried it on Mac OS 8.0 in SheepShaver and Basilisk II and it plays well. If you really want to play Hexen II, the Windows version plays fine on Windows XP in VirtualBox.

System 6.0.8 in 86Box.

System 6.0.8 appearing to be running natively in 86Box v 2.00. Actually it's running in the Dos specific version of the old defunct vMac emulator (not Mini vMac) from the 1990s, running in MS-DOS 6.22 in 86Box on Windows 10. Oh, the joys of emulation! https://forum.winworldpc.com/uploads/editor/a7/b...

Re: MacOS install not working

To run 9.0.4 in QEMU you need to use the version for the G4Cube, which is available at Macintosh Garden.
