Re: OT: SheepSaver

It works fine for apps internal to OS 8/9 but their networking leaves a lot to be desired. Your local area network will not be visible to Sheepshaver, and vis versa. Bob On Oct 24, 2010, at 9:37 AM, Matthias Rebbe wrote: Hi, is there anyone on the list who uses SheepSaver under Mac OS

Re: OT: SheepSaver

If you mean that Sheepshaver will not run because the latest OS will not run classic, then I believe you are mistaken. In fact I know you are (if that was what you meant) because I am running it right now in Snow Leopard. Again, no native networking though. Bob On Oct 24, 2010, at 6:11 PM,

BTW I am running Sheepshaver with version 8.6. I believe that was very stable. Bob On Oct 24, 2010, at 6:11 PM, Rick Harrison wrote: Hi Matthias, I believe the problem is that SheepShaver, (which I think is the correct name), ran only under 9.04 which was a very buggy version of OS 9

Hi Bob, Hmm, works under Snow Leopard. Nice! That's the best news I've heard in quite some time! Thanks, Rick On Oct 26, 2010, at 12:02 PM, Bob Sneidar wrote: If you mean that Sheepshaver will not run because the latest OS will not run classic, then I believe you are mistaken. In fact I

I have some personal experience setting up SheepShaver and documented it here with a set of instructions: http://www.sonsothunder.com/devres/revolution/tips/env006.htm Granted it was several years ago, but SheepShaver hasn't had a recent upgrade AFAIK... Ken Ray Sons of Thunder Software, Inc.

Re: OT: SheepSaver

I'm a stupid person because I have 4 computers wedged into 2 square metres of my study; but what it does mean is that I don't have to run emulators left, right and centre. Mouldy, oldy Macs are cheap as chips; even if you don't have a half-dozen of the things in the garage, attic, cellar,

Re: OT: SheepSaver

Hi, thanks for all your answers. I installed it now here with Mac OS9, which was the only version i could find in my cellar. The software TextureScape runs w/o any crashes so far. Only Rebirth RB-338 crashes. Now i will try install and run Pixar Typestry. If this runs also, i will be more

Re: OT: SheepSaver

I just checked the TCP/IP setting and it looks like they bridge their own network with the native OS X network. Because of this a lot of things will not work, such as MacPing. This was a really cool ping scanner because you could ping a whole subnet of addresses, then start pulling Ethernet

Re: OT: SheepSaver

I don't use it often (I use it to occasionally take a look at an old program/publication, rather than for production use of legacy software) but when I do I'm very happy with it. I certainly don't resent the space it takes on my disk, by contrast with Parallels... Ben On 24/10/2010 17:43,

OT: SheepSaver

Hi, is there anyone on the list who uses SheepSaver under Mac OS X? How is the performance? How the compatbility? I have here an old program (TextureScape) which I used very long time ago on a PowerMac9500. The PowerMac does not exists anymore, but i would like to use that program.

Re: OT: SheepSaver

Hi Matthias, I believe the problem is that SheepShaver, (which I think is the correct name), ran only under 9.04 which was a very buggy version of OS 9 which crashed frequently. You are also correct that 10.4 was the last environment which allowed Classic to run, so you have a double whammy
