(For Mac OS 9, not Mac OS X like what you get on google search)

Re: no matter how much ram: not enough virtual memory

Part of the issue is that OS 9 uses VM and so it can run with less physical memory. SheepShaver, as pointed out, doesn't handle the PMMU, and so can't page out memory -- so no VM. However, considering you've likely got gigs of RAM available on your host, you can just toss 128MB at SheepShaver and e...

Edit resource forks on Mac OS X

In Mac OS X, you can access the resource fork as a file by giving a program (such as a hex editor) this kind of path: /path/to/file/..namedfork/rsrc And the program will see the resource fork. If there is no resource fork, the program will see the "file" as empty. I'll post a C struct you ...

Re: can't mount HFS volumes in Mavericks using Fuse HFS

I looked into the extra folders in /Volumes/ and it's due to a race condition in OSXFUSE that evidently existed as far back as MacFUSE 2.0. The OSXFUSE developer says it won't be fixed in 2.x, and is already fixed in the code that will eventually become 3.0, whenever that may eventually appear. So ...

You can change the resolution in SheepShaver emulated machine after ctrl-return, or you have to restart Sheep Shaver? Native full screen _might_ be possible.

Yeah, because redirecting commands to the host is much easier than trying to emulate a graphics card and figuring out how to accelerate it.

Hmm... Does the game interact with the graphics card through the OpenGL extension or to hardware directly? If it's through the OpenGL extension that might make things easier.
