Goodnight all !
I saw that the PearPC show is closed it's a shame because I really like this emulator it is much faster than Qemu although the sound does not work but does not allow the launch of my game.
I tried Qemu to run Hexen II on System 9.2.1 (see my post here) unfortunately I got this error message:
Can anyone help me to make it work? Cheers

Re: Hexxen II with Qemu
A Type 2 error is a memory address error -- the application can't access the memory the code is suggesting it access.
Have you tried increasing the app's maximum memory via the Get Info window?
Type 2 errors can also be caused by extension conflicts.
Also, how much memory have you allocated the OS in the emulator?

Re: Hexxen II with Qemu
I put 512 MB for RAM with a G3 CPU... here is the command line:
Code: Select all
qemu-system-ppc-screamer.exe -L pc-bios -cpu G3 -boot c -M mac99 -m 512 -hda "Mac OS 9.2.1.img" -cdrom "d:\Games\Macintosh\Hexen II.iso"

Re: Hexxen II with Qemu
That should be enough, I think. So how much are you allocating in OS 9 to Hexen II?Sebiohazard wrote: ↑Thu Jan 19, 2023 11:21 pm I put 512 MB for RAM with a G3 CPU... here is the command line:

Re: Hexxen II with Qemu
I do not understand the question ? How should I allocate memory to the game ? Doesn't this happen automatically ?
Re: Hexxen II with Qemu
Use get info on the program and look at its recommended and required memory fields. You can make changes there.
