Basilisk II PSP Port (Mac Emulator)

[pakkman781]

Ok, I think I know what to download...the old 7.5 OS...but is there a place that has it as one file download insted of a bunch of individual one? Im on dialup and it s aggravating to download big files a piece at a time...also how much room does this take on a memory stick...?

Erm, the image is included with the emulator download...

Well what do I do to get it to work? Every time i try it says, "ERROR: Cannot open ROM file."

no one asked for your opinion.

and no one asked for you to make such a superfluous remark which has no construction whatsoever to this post. Anyway I am trying this out and appears rather complex. Hope the sound works in the next release

Well, you'll need an actual old Mac rom for that. However, since the legality of using such roms is questionable, you might have a hard time finding one. I posted a link to one, but it was taken down.

On another issue: Does anyone know how to get it to mount a different disk file than the one included?

Hmm mine works, but it ends up coming with a grey screen with a floppy disk icon in the middle with a question mark. What am I doing wrong?

Get the most recent binary release. All you need to do is put DSK and/or HFV images in the BasiliskIIPSP folder on your memory stick and it will auto-mount all of them.

You need a Mac boot disk. There should be one in the binary emulator release. Everything is setup in such a way so you can extract it to your memory stick, then put a mac.rom in the right place (as you obviously have) and it will work.

For those looking for a on screen keyboard solution, there's *kind of* one built into the OS anyway. If you do your own install of OS 7.5.5 you'll see an app called 'Key Caps' in the Apple Menu (top left of the screen) - here's a photo of it:

It's a little clumsy, you've got to copy the text out of it, but considering that it's there already, and there are no other options at the moment, it's handy.
