Built from current
kanji755/macemu source:
https://github.com/kanjitalk755/macemuThis version is a huge step forward and deserves a new version number 2.5.
Application only: Replace SheepShaver in an existing setup with this one.
Download: Removed link to older test build
Edit: Download the newest test build here: http://ronaldpr.home.xs4all.nl/sheepsha ... 1_test.zipPlease read:This build is 64-bit Intel only and it should run in
MacOSX 10.7 through macOS 10.13. (See also test request below.)
Display improvementsSheepShaver 2.5 uses SDL 2 and has display improvements that were not possible with earlier SDL versions. Improvements are most visible in full screen mode and while toggling between window mode and full screen mode using control-return. If the gesture is enabled, one can now also swipe between SheepShaver in full screen mode and the host desktop or other applications that are running on the host in full screen mode. The system requirements for this feature were introduced in MacOSX 10.7 (Lion). That is why that is the minimum MacOSX version for SheepShaver 2.5.
Mount images as CD-ROMIt also has this nice feature that was already present in the other recent test builds:
It is possible to specify in preferences (the settings window) which disk images in the volumes list will be mounted as CD-ROM. No need anymore to lock the disk image file, no need to perform a workaround with the Virtual DVD-ROM/CD Utility.
Bug with this feature:
Unintended behavior when you try to remove/eject a virtual CD-ROM from within SheepShaver which under some circumstances can only be resolved by quitting SheepShaver. This issue can be avoided by only adding and removing disk images as CD-ROM in preferences (the settings window).
(As always: After a change in settings quit SheepShaver and launch it again for the change to take effect.)
Test request:This build should run in MacOSX 10.7 (Lion) through macOS 10.13 (High Sierra). It has, however, not yet been tested in MacOSX 10.7. Reports about running it in 10.7, specifically about its behavior in full screen mode and with toggling between full screen mode and window mode are welcome.
Edit: The test builds have now been tested on all OSX versions 10.7 and later
