mod) and a bunch of useful utilities such as Super ResEdit 2.4, DiskCopy 6.4 and TaskMenuBar 2.4.2. toast), Virex 6.1 which was the best antivirus for Mac around year 2000, SoundApp which is an extraordinary compatible music player (plays close to 100 different formats such as. ![]() bin), Toast 5 Titanium for mounting/creating CD images (such as. Pre-installed software includes: QuickTime 4.1 for multimedia playback, Stuffit Deluxe 7.0.3 for extracting/compressing Stuffit archives and MacBinary files (such as. If you intend to install software in your SheepShaver VM, then you will need to expand that blank 30GB file, attach it in SheepShaver preferences and copy the Mac OS 9 System Folder from the 250MB disk image to the 30GB one. The base hard disk image comes with a bunch of useful software on it, but please note that this 250MB disk image is not intended for users to install more software. They already contain a compatible ROM file ( - Mac OS ROM 1.1 from an iMac G3), a 250MB hard disk image on which Mac OS 9.0.4 is already installed (as well as an optional empty 30GB, yes 30 gigabytes, disk image to accomodate heavy disk space use). These bundles were put together by and are intended to be the easiest possible for beginners. SheepShaver is not perfect (it cannot run MacOS 9.1 or 9.2), but enables users to run the vast majority of PPC software for Macintosh on their PC, which is all things considered, extraordinary, especially back in the year 1998. SheepShaver started as a commercial project in 1998 but is now open source since 2002. SheepShaver is a PowerPC (PPC) emulator which allows you to run Mac OS 7.5 up to Mac OS 9.0.4 on various platforms, such as on Windows. ![]() I've satisfied all my old game desires, from The Duel (Test Drive II) and Stuntcopter through to Heroes of Might & Magic III and Discworld ("That doesn't work.").What is SheepShaver PPC emulator (for Windows + Mac OS X)? However, once it's setup, and you've made a copy of your working disk images (for sanity), you're all set.After a multi-hour session one weekend and rummaging around through old Macs and games in the attic, I now have OS 6.0.7, 7.5.5, 7.6.2, 8.1, 8.6 and 9.0.4 running across the above three emulators on various disk images. ![]() Definitely follow a guide if you're not totally up to speed with old Mac issues like HFS vs HFS+, and why 32-bit addressing is important. is a PITA, because you have to install OS and copy ROMs across from old machines. ![]() However, Intel machines don't support any form of 68k emulation, inside Classic (no longer available) or anywhere else.You're right, setting up Sheep Shaver, vMac, Basilisk II etc. PowerPC machines (running Mac OS) supported 68k machines, first directly in (say) OS 9, and then through the 'Classic' mode in OS X. It seems like there are a lot of annoying steps to get it to work though, so I was wondering if there was any easier way?I gotta have my PoP lovin' Short answer is you need Sheep Shaver - or an equivalent emulator.PoP is an old application for '68k' machines (68020, 68030 etc., such as the LC or IIci). There's a "prohibited" circle around the icon, and when I double click it a message pops up and says "You cannot open the file "Price of Persia" because it is not supported on this system."I did a quick good and someone had posted a tutorial on how to use Sheep Shaver to get old classic games on intel macs. Quote:Originally posted by The Goat:So after all the talk about releasing Prince of Persia on the XBLA I decided to drag out my old copy of both PoP1 and PoP2.I tossed it in my Intel Mac and crossed my fingers, but of course it won't work.
