I've never been able to create Mac Classic projectors with third party Xtras from OSX Dir MX, so whenever I've needed to, I've gone back to Dir 8.5 on a Classic machine to make them. But I know other people must do it from OSX, so it's very frustrating. This issue is a major roadblock to me upgrading to MX2004, because it's not backwards compatible with 8.5 like MX is.
The Xtras I'm dealing with are Impressario and V12 DBE. The V12 DBE package automatically comes with separate folders for the Carbon Xtra and PPC Xtra (which one is for Classic? Carbon?), but the Impressario package doesn't. There are two Impressario packages, one for OSX and one for Classic, so I unzipped them both and put them both under the Xtras folder. I can create an OSX projector with Xtras packaged into the projector, and it works fine, but I can't for Classic. When trying to make the Classic projector, it adds Macromedia's Xtras fine, but when it tries to add Impressario and V12 DBE, it give me an error of "-50 Can't write the file" (paraphrase). I tried not packaging the Xtras, and just placing the Xtras folder under the projector (which is how I normally do things), but then more things break. With this non-packaged Xtras method, the OSX projector loads all the Xtras except the V12 DBE successfully, but the Classic projector can't load any of the Xtras, even Macromedia's. What's the secret here?
