Possibly on an old machine or a backup. I'm traveling until Sunday night and the laptop I have here doesn't have it. Let me know next week if you still want it.

If you have the time, could you try this setup and report if it works?

Re: A/UX AppleTalk information

If you have a modern Mac, you can run A/UX 3.0 in QEMU with one click (or two):

Its control panels include Network and Mac TCP.

Re: New Mac same setup I can't seem to fix

If you trash your existing copy of the Mac OS 9 app bundle and download a completely fresh copy, you will not find your old screensaver or anything else from your old system. You may want to read the entire download page for further details.

Re: New Mac same setup I can't seem to fix

That special build isn't supported here or anywhere, and if it isn't working for you, then probably you shouldn't use it. There's probably no way to figure out why the Unix folder doesn't work on your setup, for example. But, in case you want to make one more try to make it work, the prefs file that...

Re: Standalone SheepShaver for OS X (add ROM and OS 8.5-9.0.4)

For what it's worth (probably not much) I've updated all my AppleScript-based apps that run System 7 through Mac OS 9.0.4 under macOS. The only difference with earlier versions is that they use current code from kanjitalk755. The forum now allows links to pages with download links for this kind of a...

Re: Beta version of new Basilisk II GUI

From the file prefs_items.cpp in the source:

Code: Select all

{"delay", TYPE_INT32, false,	"additional delay [uS] every 64k instructions"},
"uS" is an ASCII way of writing microseconds (μS).

Re: can’t find a file on SheepShaver anywhere on the hard drive

If the file was NOT in the "Unix" folder, but on the virtual hard disk image, you may need to recover an old copy of the disk image file from a backup. If the file was in the "Unix" folder, and a copy is not in the macOS folder that corresponds to the "Unix" folder, the...

Re: FUSE-HFS now works on Monterey!

Yes, the current brew version of fuse-t is 1.0.33, so you need to specify an exact location by clicking on the folder icon indicated in your second-to-last screenshot. I built successfully when I made that change.
