Re: Has Anyone Seen Paul C. Pratt Online in the Last Year?

It seems there's more to it. I don't expect to hear about those details, that's something I can understand and respect.

I'm happy to hear he's still around.

I got what I needed out of your download, so I'm happy. Are you not happy too?

Re: System 7 coexisting with macOS X

I see @mabam has merged overnight. @emendelson I appreciate the effort you've gone to, but this method of redistributing is somewhat less useful to me. I don't want or need another "all-in-one", as it would be just another disk image to manage rather than the single disk image I use day-to...

Re: System 7 coexisting with macOS X

I'm able to build this, but I'm still trying to figure out how to specify that the prefs file should be in the same folder with the application. Replacing "HOME" with "PWD" in prefs_sdl.cpp doesn't work at all. If anyone knows the solution to this, I'll be grateful. I'll try my ...

Re: System 7 coexisting with macOS X

Thanks.

It seems your build has better screen redrawing.

But I prefer the ability to keep a separate set of prefs like emendelson's build.

Re: System 7 coexisting with macOS X

Is this still working for people?

Just tried my old build on Monterey and it's just a regular Basilisk window?

edit: maybe I had forgotten to set screen to rootless, but i'm now using emendelson build that keeps its own prefs.

Re: Latest Basilisk II for Apple Silicon

I'd like to request a newer build.

Just today a hugely important but minor change was added to BasiliskII (high resolution timer) which improve the experience of HyperCard and pretty much every HyperCard stack ever created.

Re: A standalone System 7.6.1 setup using BasiliskII

How about indirect links? For example a link to google search results, which in turn contains the link to the website in question?

And what about the version of Mac OS System 7 that Apple made available as a free download?

Just for total clarity.

Re: A standalone System 7.6.1 setup using BasiliskII

Officially it was introduced in System 7 Pro (7.1.1) but before that you could install early/beta releases. eg. Apple Developer CD, July 1994: AppleScript™ Setup And one of my 1994 Magazine CD-ROMs has AppleScript™ Setup 1.1 http://discmaster.textfiles.com/browse/10370/NIKKEI-MAC-CD-ROM-1994-2-17.IS...

Re: A standalone System 7.6.1 setup using BasiliskII

File System Manager Extension

I also think only for 7.1, but worth a quick try on 7.0.1 to confirm.

It's possible.

I rebuilt the latest code to my device recently, just before iOS 16 was released, using latest Xcode to iPadOS.

Re: BasiliskII for iOS

There's a separate macOS version that implements a kind of Parallels Unity feature where classic Macintosh windows live amongst modern macOS windows.

But I agree, the UI is good on the iOS app. The closest you can get right now on macOS is BasiliskII GUI config app.

Can also confirm these results.

Is 20211113 the most recent build available? I see it's more recent than the one in the downloads thread.
