Youtube – Bastelprojekt: Mac-Emulator mit Raspberry Pi und Retro-Gehäuse
Für viele Apple-Fans gehört die Nostalgie am ersten Mac untrennbar dazu. Doch Originalhardware zu nutzen ist oft umständlich, kostspielig und riskant. Der Betrieb

🐑💾 Ah, the thrilling world of #emulation, where you can spend countless hours setting up #SheepShaver just to relive the glory days of OS 9. Meanwhile, your actual #Mac sits neglected, wondering why it wasn’t good enough. 🤦♂️ But don't worry, the #EMaculation wiki is here to provide an endless maze of instructions, ensuring you're never lost while doing absolutely nothing. 🙃

Fixed this problem (somehow) by downgrading from Mac OS 7.6.1 to 7.5.3. 🤷🏻

Myst is not writing save files for some reason. Doesn't give me an error message; it just doesn't do it, no matter what destination folder I select. Hmph.

Is there an arm64 (Apple Silicon) version of SheepShaver yet? If there is I can't find it. #SheepShaver #emulation #arm64 #mac #retrocomputing

If someone wants to help an emulator project then SheepShaver urgently needs PowerPC MMU implementation.
Classic Mac OS emulation shouldn't be this clunky in 2024 and I'm too tied up with DOSBox Staging to help save yet another emulator.
DOSBox Staging ships with full support for PowerPC including dynamic recompilation for ppc, ppc64 and ppc64le targets so we love the architecture.

hey folks anyone know how to get SheepShaver bridged to the host's network on macOS 14?
i've got the network device set to
slirp. i swear this worked earlier this year, but i keep getting a10.x.x.xaddress and router now, instead of the192.168.y.yi'd expect from my home network, and i can no longer reach the PowerBook G3 AppleShare server on the same network from SheepShaver.questions:
- does SheepShaver bridging interact badly with Parallels?
- do i need Internet Sharing set to a specific setting, or does that not affect however bridging works?
i don't need AppleTalk support, just IP.

I’m really getting fed up with #SheepShaver. It loves to crash at random when doing any of the following:
- clicking on an icon on the desktop and attempting to drag it (freeze)
- clicking on an icon on the desktop and attempting to rename it (freeze)
- trying to open a folder from the finder (bombs)
- trying to connect to an afp server in the chooser (bombs)
- booting the system (sometimes bombs while extensions are loading, sometimes freezes just before extensions start to load)This happens despite re-installing Mac OS 9 from scratch three times. The only thing I use this emulator for is to build the PPC version of #Macstodon, and even managing to get it to do that successfully is an exercise in patience these days.
Anyway, I think I’m going to try setting up #QEMU tonight as my new PPC emulator. I looked into it a couple years ago but it had quite poor performance, hopefully it’s improved since then, but I’ll happily trade that off for some stability!

Yesterday I spent an hour troubleshooting SheepShaver (a Mac emulator) on the Steam Deck.
The thing closed as soon as the OS was loading.Tried a different HDD image and it worked. I booted my original image and lowered the RAM and it opened up!
I tried opening SimCity 2000 and it reported an audio conflict.
I figured the audio was the issue. So, I turned the audio off with the original RAM and it loaded.
I turned it on again and now it's working without issue! -

Basilisk II and SheepShaver Macintosh emulators.

Никогда не слышал про #vMac
#BasiliskII 10+ лет назад гонял в хвост и гриву, вполне стабильный товарищ
Про #SheepShaver слышал, когда только он появился и был весьма нестабильным, но у мя уже был железный #mac, поэтому особого смысла не было в нём, и он прошёл мимо меня. С #PearPC та же история -

Almost nobody knows that I was an editor at MacUser magazine. That's because I got hired just about 4 months before the merger between Ziff-Davis' #MacUser and IDG's #MacWorld.
I ended up bouncing to PC World, where I stayed for a decade.
I was hired because I was an inveterate Mac tinkerer, while just a novice editor. So imagine my surprise as I literally just discovered a feature I've never seen before in a Mac system.
I knew the (OS 8.1) system's text editor, SimpleText, had text-to-speech tools built right into the front end. What I didn't know is that, among the range of voices you can choose to read aloud whatever is in the text editor, is a voice called Pipe Organ that literally sings whatever text is in the document in a style I can only describe as 60s-robotic-Gregorian Chant.
And the best part? The tune the voice kind of sings along with is March of the Marionette, otherwise known as the theme song from the TV series Alfred Hitchcock Presents.
You have *not* experienced "new features" documentation about software until you've had it sung to you by a mournful robot with a Hitchcock fetish.

I *knew* there was an advantage to being an infosec researcher with an interest in #retrocomputing
ClamAV has a vulnerability that can only be triggered when it scans a specially made HFS+ partition file. HFS+ is the partition format for Apple Macs starting with Mac OS 8.1.
My experience with the #PiSCSI and #sheepshaver #emulator has prepared me for this day. Lookin to make me some #retromalware 😜

@kiwired i'm running #MacOS9 in #qemu qemfor the most part. It's much more stable the #sheepshaver since it doesn't hack into the OS but also much slower b/c of this
