I've been going through the inCider magazines archived on ftp.apple.asimov.net (they're in colour), but had noticed a few of them were missing. Additional sources are always welcome. (One of these days, I want to take a look through all of A+ as well...)

Although I am a bit late responding to the original question, of late I've been using Sheepshaver to play the comedy action game from Ambrosia, Harry the Handsome Executive. I'd got it running on my old G3 iMac, but I'm forever short of table space to set up additional computers... Before that, I'd ...

With a bit more examination of the MAME documentation, I sorted out how to get two windows to show up on my single actual monitor:

./mame maciici -numscreens 2 -window -nomax -mouse -nbc 824gc -ramsize 16M -hard1 macos761.hdv

-nomax keeps the windows from being scaled up to where they can't be ...

I might have posted my last comment a trifle too soon; a recollection about the LC III revealed its emulation included enough VRAM to bump up to thousands of colours. I'd already tried adding a second video card to IIci emulation but had a bit of trouble there seeing anything before realizing the ...

I've done a bit more experimenting, and while I still haven't answered the questions I started with I have hit on something of a workaround. When I installed Mac OS 7.6.1 into a fresh hard disk image and tried running it in MAME, CD-ROM images I've come across will start loading on the Desktop there ...

I found a copy of SCSI Probe, winkled it into MAME, and discovered it reported what looks to be a CD-ROM in position 4 as I see it:

Can you outline the exact steps you used to image and mount the Myst disc? Arbee is one of the MAME devs, so if you can identify exactly what you did that led to your situation, it could result in a knowledgeable fix to your process, or a fix inside MAME.


To start with, I'm using MAME 0.232 on ...

The .iso file I tried to make was made from my own old Myst disc, which only increases my puzzlement about what I'm not doing that would have its icon appear on the Desktop in MAME. (I have tried starting the emulator with its file name after the -cdrom option on the Terminal command line.) Still ...

I tried using chdman on the CD-ROM disk image I'd just made and turned out a .chd file, but it still didn't appear after MAME started up. The really puzzling part of this, I suppose, is that the instructions I followed to get Macintosh emulation running in MAME pointed me to a CD-ROM image (with an ...

There may be several different instructions to be found here. Which one did you use?


I used the instructions from " Creating an .iso from a HFS CD-ROM in macOS 10.15 (Catalina) " and wound up with a disk image that loaded into Mini vMac, yet produced neither a Terminal error message or an icon ...

I've followed this board quietly for some time, but have decided to register at last to ask a question. A recent look back at the Voyager CD-ROMs had me thinking about trying some of them out, but after a bit of difficulty getting one to run in SheepShaver and noticing comments about MAME's ...
