Basilisk II PSP Port (Mac Emulator)

[Farcicalname]

ok the new version is working on my psp...but:

-i tried place a 50 mega HFV and didn't find it(than i made a 50 mega SDK and is working fine)

-i still dunno what to do once i am in the sistem...i have some application but i have no idea where to place them to make them run...

to make it clear i extracted the applications in windows using stuffit than copied to the virtual disk for the EMU use...

someone can explain me or give me links on how to load and use applications under this OS?

thank u

To launch any application, just double click on its icon. It's that simple.

What I'm having a problem with is getting images to mount, none of them work! Of course, I have little way of making these images, because I'm on a real Mac, albeit newer, and no one has made a DSK and HFV creator for us! I think I might have found a workaround however, and I'll post back my results.

But what do I do to get images to mount?!?

the prob is that i tried every way but no one app seems to be executable...always poping up a message: "u don't have the application to open the file"...


btw is easier if i try on the emu on pc and than import the disk to the psp

Then obviously you are trying to open file, not an application. I've managed to put a couple small games on the included disk image, and they run just fine.

Well, the problem is, I can't. I'm on a real Mac. There is a port of Basilisk II for the Mac, but it doesn't create disk image files. Since you can make disk images, would you send me a 20Mb bootable disk image? I just need basically the same image included with the emulator, just with 20Mb space.If you can, tell me, and I'll PM you my email. I've already asked ChaosKnight if he'd do it, but no reply yet...

If anyone could do me this favor, it would be much appreciated.

don't you have even a cheap PC? ^^ you could transfer files from that instead

What's the possiblity of integrating a usb mode into the emulator? It'd make running apps much easier.

Also, I am unable to install diskcopy because the installer window that appears has its buttons outside the viewable region of the screen. This means the buttons cannot be clicked. Why can't you simply hit start you ask? I don't know, perhaps the button is not selected. So I had the bright idea of using the L button to tab over to the agree button floating out there in the twilight zone, but whenever I hit L, the window closes. Any ideas?

Brainstorm: Would it be possible to scroll the screen when a large window appears?

Also, when installing macos 8 i get to the point of updating apple hard disk drivers and the installer hangs.

i know you cant post the source rom here but can someone supposebly send it to me @ [email protected] thanks lots and also send me ure aim screen name cause i need some psp friends :-/

[pokothehobo]

ok for everyone having trouble i will tell how i got it to work...

ok search google for a mac rom (im aloud to say that right?)

download hfv explorer from here http://mac.the-underdogs.org/

that is also where you can find apps/games

to put downloaded apps games unto yer psp open the system.dsk with hfv exploer (or make your own .dsk) and drag the compressed .sit files unto the disk image


ok here is what tripped me up the most.

you need to install stuffit expander which is tricky to install. after asking around a forum i found out that it needs to be off of its own disk image or something.

you can download it from here

http://www.the-underdogs.org/tools/macstart.zip

just move the unziped .dsk image unto the psp and install stuffit

then open the .sit files from other .dsk images with stuffit

im not very good at explainign things but i hope this helped some of you....


also do any of you know if it is possible to change the resolution of the screen so that it is a normal width....when i play oregon trail the top and bottom of the screen gets cut off haha...

How you doing I was just curious on how you got the emulator to load properly. I'm also not to clear on which file you want me to change the name to "mac.rom" & finally put the new file in that same folder you mean let me know what I'm doing wrong

Thank you

Ok, for those who want a rom:

No linking to Roms thanks- admin

just rename the unzipped file "mac.rom" and put it in with the emulator.

DISCLAIMER: I own an old Mac, a Performa 6320/CD to be exact, so it's legal for me. Just had to throw that in there But it's pretty much abandonware anyway :P
