I have no idea what is going on in your setup.

Do you leave SheepShaver running for extended periods of time? Better shut down SheepShaver before closing your MacBook and start again SheepShaver when the environment in which you want to use SheepShaver (for instance with which screen) is set up.

Doesn't the OP use Mac OS X 10.0?

BTW: According to the table in the setup guide, screamer sound does not work nicely with Mac OS X 10.0.

1. After a System crash you should always shut down and start up again to prevent possible (further) damage to the file system. 2. It is possible that you do not need the "Apple Audio Extension". When you manage to startup again, use the Extensions Manager control panel to disable the Appl...

Select a file (any file) in the Finder, hit command-I (or choose Show Info from the File menu). The Finder Info panel for that file will open with info about that file, among which the creation and modification dates. SheepShaver's creation date is its build date. (could be one day off, depending on...

The script does not give any confirmation. If ran without error, it should be OK. If you want to check the location of the prefs file: Open your Home folder Hit command-shift-. (command-shift-dot). This will reveal hidden files. If the .sheepshaver_prefs file is among the revealed files in your Home...

You did not mention on which host machine you upgraded to Sonoma. If you used OCLP (open core legacy patcher) to run Ventura (and now Sonoma) on a not-supported Intel machine, SheepShaver will stop working after upgrade to Sonoma.

I am not sure if this game will run in SheepShaver, but it will certainly not run unless CarbonLib 1.6 is installed in MacOS. The extension can be downloaded from Macintosh Garden: http://macintoshgarden.org/apps/carbonlib MacOS 9.0.3? Is that a machine specific version? As far as I know, general In...

Did you try shortening the sound buffer in SheepShaver? Shortening the length of the sound buffer can prevent delayed and choppy sound in some applications but will increase CPU use. Since March 2021, the sound buffer can be shortened in BasiliskII and SheepShaver builds from kanjitalk755 source by ...

I did not realize that you use the SheepShaver Wrapper. My instructions were for the regular SheepShaver setup. But you got it working your way.

100 GB? I am not sure MacOS 9 can use a disk that size. I also do not know why you want everything on one single disk. After copying everything over, you need check if the System Folder has its icon. If not, open the System Folder to show the System and Finder files inside and close the System Folde...

Things are much simpler now in Sonoma. You can make a new empty sparsebundle image using Disk Utility. File menu > New Image > Blank Image... Choose Name and Size Then: Format: Choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled) Encryption: none Partitions: No partition map Image format: sparse bundle image format A...

The issue was solved since December 2022. The latest build is dated 28 February 2024. If the Settings menu is greyed out, you do not run the latest SheepShaver build. Maybe you have several different builds installed and accidentally launch an older build?

Which is your host system (Windows or macOS)? Which is the location where you try to install the games to? Did installing other software / games work as expected? Edit: I tried Cluefinders 3rd grade (downloaded from MacintoshGarden) in BasiliskII and the installer only installed an empty folder. I t...

OK. If the file ~/.sheepshaver_prefs was the file that you edited with "jit false" before you tried the no-JIT build, then apparently that build does not work for you with OCLP and Sanoma. The prefs file location issue is a little complicated: It used to be ~/.sheepshaver_prefs Builds betw...

The "SheepShaver-noJIT" build worked with Ventura, but it did not work for "PBobbenB" with Sonoma. @ PBobbenB In the past two years different SheepShaver builds wrote a new prefs file to different locations. To make sure you edited the right prefs file that all builds will use, d...

This issue is probably related to the use of OCLP In another topic about what coiuld be the same issue, our member "nandrews" describes the cause: https://www.emaculation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=77440#p77440 "nandrews" also hosts a SheepShaver-noJIT build that can run on OCLP p...

Posted the 28 February 2024 universal build.

Again Sonoma with OCLP. Did an older SheepShaver build run on your machine?

To anyone using Sonoma on an an Intel machine that does not need OCLP: Does SheepShaver run on your machine?

We have seen various issues with SheepShaver that only happen on machines that run macOS using OCLP.

@ sykogee
Do you also use OCLP to run Sonoma on your MacBook Pro?

Woudn't that be /Users/yourusername/foldername on a macOS host?

Yes, it is the same error "sykogee" got, also in macOS 14.x (Sonoma) on Intel. I wonder if earlier SheepShaver builds behave the same in Sonoma on Intel: The 1 August 2021 build is interesting because in the next (22 January 2022) build an issue with RAM settings was solved. Download: http...

The Dvorak keyboard layout is indeed not available in MacOS versions up to 8.5.1. No solution that I know of. It is available in MacOS 8.6 and later.

Yes, I noticed the posts here and the pull request at kanjitalk755/macemu. It works for a specific situation in Windows. Not sure if it will also work for other configurations. No reply yet from kanjitalk755. I do not know where a similar change could be made for the macOS version. Of interest is th...

One would expect BasiliskII and SheepShaver to use memory in a similar way, but I really do not know. I recall reports of the "cannot map RAM" issue only with SheepShaver, usually on Linux or Windows hosts and rarely on OSX/macOS. Restarting the host usually solves the issue. Restarting do...
