I have fixed the issue again.
It works properly too in case caps lock is ON when launching SheepShaver.

Sorry to inform you that it does not work correctly.

It seems to work correctly immediately after launch, both with caps lock on and off at launch. But after using the caps lock key twice, the relation between LED indication and uppercase/lowercase is reversed. You get then lowercase with LED on and uppercase with LED off.

Wow, that's fun, I'm reading my name everywhere in the last thread on SheepShaver. Glad to see that my weird "64bits clean SLIRP" work !

Will try soon Kanjitalk's build. There is no intereset to work on my branch.

I am using SS 2.5 on 10.13.6 using SS Wrapper from 7/11/18. I had no problems running Strategic Conquest 3.0.

When I tried to run Strategic Conquest 4.0.1, I get a fatal message saying "There is not enough memory to open 'Strategic Conquest 4.0.1' (zero K needed, 490,942 K available).

Can you suggest a way to fix this?

This error may occur when you try to launch an application that is still on the 'Unix' volume or that was moved from the "Unix" volume directly to the desktop. Make sure to copy the application and related files to the virtual HD and launch it from there.

(In classic MacOS, the desktop is not a single location but the combined desktops of all mounted volumes. After moving a file from a volume directly to the desktop, that file will still be on that volume in an invisible "Desktop Folder".)
