A new emulator! I am excited to try this out.

I hope. I really hope you guys added sound.

Boot chime works great!

As for any other audio, I usually turn it off to avoid some crashing possibilities.

But what OSes does DingusPPC support?

But what OSes does DingusPPC support?

Yesterday, today, or tomorrow?

It's aiming for accurate support of three hardware platforms; eventually, it should support all OSes those computers supported.

The target hardware is:

Power Macintosh 6100
Power Macintosh 7500
Power Macintosh G3 (Beige)

You can already try out the WebASM version here: https://infinitemac.org/ under Custom:Experimental and play with hardware configurations and OS versions to see what works and what doesn't. And now, you can also try out the Windows build linked in this thread

Or, from the link at the top of the page:

Known Working OSes
Disk Tools (7.1.2 - 8.5)
Mac OS 7.1.2 - 9.2.2 (from CD)
Mac OS 7.5.3 - 9.2.2 (from Hard Disk)
OpenDarwin 6.6.2

Um ok. So how to make a hdd for this emulator?
i have one issue
it cannot boot to the cd and i cannot press Ctrl + G to lock

[psh]

Uhh, it went into black screen

[psh]

And now the system complained about the startup disk being newer than the machine supported (i use both 7.5.5 and 7.6.1, which were FYI clearly supported)

You can find the Discord link on the Github repo's wiki.

Also, I wonder which machine you were trying to use.
