Emulation's fun! - Happy Mac

Welcome to the Guides intro to Emulation.

Guardian mac os. Below, are instructions and links that will show you how to run games
that you will find located in the Macintosh Garden's pages.

1. Selecting an Emulator
2. The Guides

Introduction to Emulation

Macintosh Garden features many abandonware games. These games can be decades old, and therefore were developed for computers and operating systems that are now obsolete. As a consequence, many of the games featured on Macintosh Garden will not work on today's computers. The best way to run these games is to acquire a vintage computer system, but this is not always easy. To help those without old hardware, this wiki will describe how to use emulators to play the games on modern systems.

Selecting an Emulator

For best results you should try to emulate the machine that your game was designed for! Check the publishing date of the game for hints. Any host system can run an emulator. This means that users of Mac OS X, Windows, Linux and even more esoteric operating systems can all enjoy the games on Macintosh Garden. The four main emulators you will use are:

QEMU

Polyhedron: A Wizards Game Mac Os 7

Emulates a PowerPC Macintosh that will run Mac OS versions 9.0.4 to 10.5.

Game Mac Torrent

SheepShaver

Emulates a PowerPC Macintosh that will run Mac OS versions 7.5.2 to 9.0.4. This means that you are emulating a Macintosh setup that was commonly used from about 1995 to 2000. Games published in the late 90s are most stable in SheepShaver. Games that require

a PowerPC processor will only run in SheepShaver.Skip to the guides for SheepShaver

Basilisk II

Basilisk II emulates a 680x0 Macintosh that will run Mac OS versions 7 to 8.1. This represents a date range of about 1991 to 1998. Games published in the early and mid 1990s are most stable in Basilisk II.Skip to the guides for Basilisk II

Mini vMac

Games published in the 1980s will usually run best in Mini vMac. Mini vMac emulates a black and white (only) Mac Plus (68000 processor) that can run System versions 1 to 7.5.5. (Work is being done on Mac II support, including color, in Mini vMac with a large number of possible variations.) This represents a date range of about 1984 to 1996.Skip to the guides for Mini vMacKeep in mind that there is a lot of backwards compatibility in Mac OS. SheepShaver and Mac OS 9 run a lot of games from the 1980s and early 1990s, and Basilisk II runs many 1980s games with no problems.

The Guides

Setting up an emulator is easy, and there is a wealth of setup guides available to help you out. Keep in mind that before you begin, you will need a valid Macintosh ROM image to run an emulator. You can get this from your old Macintosh computer, if you own one. Otherwise one will have to be acquired elsewhere, e.g.; from friends, family members, or online searches.You'll also need a copy of an old version of Mac OS to run in your emulator. Versions 6 to 7.5.5 are available for free and the guides below will show you where to get them and how to use them. Later versions (useful mostly in SheepShaver) were not free, so you will either need to buy a disc from somewhere or check through the apps section of this website for a suitable copy.

For Mini vMac

• Mini vMac is the easiest of the emulators to get started with. Most users can just check out the official documentation and should be up and running without too much effort.
• Windows users can check out an illustrated setup guide.
• iPhone users can also run Mini vMac. Check out the official page of that port for more information.

For Basilisk ll

• E-Maculation has a setup guide for Mac OS X users, and another guide for Windows users, and another here for users of the Linux port of Basilisk II.
• Linux users can also consult the official documentation (Web archive link: site currently off-line).

For SheepShaver

• Low End Mac has a concise setup guide for OS X users. Note: If you are following this guide, please first download a more recent version of SheepShaver.
• For more advanced issues, Emaculation.com has a more detailed guide and a forum dedicated to setting up SheepShaver for OS X.
• Emaculation.com also has a setup guide for Windows users.
• The WordPerfect Mac Yahoo group has complete installs of SheepShaver for Intel Macs. No other software needed. Free at WPMac.
• Linux can consult the Ubuntu setup guide for help.

For QEMU

• Emaculation.com also has setup guides for Mac OS X users as well as for Windows users.

Downloading games from this website

Most games featured on Macintosh Garden are archived in the .SIT format. This format is ideal for extracting on Mac OS 9 and earlier - where you will be running your games. On Mac OS X you can extract these files using StuffIt Expander.

Uploading games to this website

This topic is a guide itself, please read A Beginner's Guide for Uploading Stuff to Macintosh Garden and Uploading games to this website.If you just want to upload a game, simply create an account and login, then when you click the add game link located at the top right of the website, a form will allow you to enter the new game's details; Game name, file, description, screenshot etc.

FAQ

What is a ROM? - A 'ROM' image is a file that is created by reading the contents of an Integrated Circuit which is installed in the Macintosh that the file is read from. The ROM file contains data about the exact model, it also contains copyrighted data from Apple. It is vital that you have a ROM file from the exact model of Macintosh that you wish to emulate.I don't have an old version of Mac OS? 7.5.x will run most games on Macintosh Garden and is good for Mini vMac and Basillisk II. Later and even earlier versions may be available in the apps section of this site.How do I add a page to this wiki?You must first create an account with us.

Installing games/other software onto your emulator

A guide on installing apps on Mini vMac, Basilisk II, and SheepShaver is here. Feel free to improve it!

The geometry games share a common foundation, and this FAQ applies to all of them. In the questions and answers below, the term application refers to whatever application you are currently using, such as the Torus Games, KaleidoTile or Curved Spaces.

General

G1. My question doesn't appear on this FAQ. What should I do?

G2. I'd like to use KaleidoPaint on my Macintosh or Windows computer. Where can I find it?

G3. When I paste an image onto a face of the polyhedron in KaleidoTile, the image's transparency gets lost. What must I do to preserve transparency? Ocean combat mac os.

Mac OS X

Mays digiadventure mac os. M1. What version of Mac OS X do I need?

Windows

W1. I downloaded application.zip without difficulty, but when I unzip it I find only the supporting files (Languages, Help, Textures) — the program itself seems to be missing. Where can I find it?

W2. The application tells me it Can't find an 'OpenGL driver' for my 3D graphics hardware. What is an OpenGL driver and where can I find one?

W3. Why did the application stop working when I upgraded to Windows 8?

G1. My question doesn't appear on this FAQ. What should I do?

First take a look at the application's built-in Help menu. If it doesn't resolve your question, please submit it via the Geometry Games Contact Page for a more-or-less prompt reply.

Free Game Mac

G2. I'd like to use KaleidoPaint on my Macintosh or Windows computer. Where can I find it?

The publicly available KaleidoPaint runs only on iOS. A Mac version exists, but has not yet been released. The problem is that drawing with a mouse is much harder than drawing with your finger.

G3. When I paste an image onto a face of the polyhedron in KaleidoTile, the image's transparency gets lost. What must I do to preserve transparency?

To paste a partially transparent image onto a face in KaleidoTile, you must

• use a Macintosh (not a Windows PC) and
• copy the partially transparent image from a web browser (such as Safari or Firefox) or other graphics program that properly copies transparent images.

M1. What version of Mac OS X do I need?

• Mac OS 10.5 to run the oldest versions (OpenGL 1)
• Mac OS 10.6 to run the older versions (OpenGL 2)
• Mac OS 10.7 or later to run the old versions (OpenGL 3)

W1. I downloaded application.zip without difficulty, but when I unzip it I find only the supporting files (Languages, Help, Textures) — the program itself seems to be missing. Where can I find it?

Windows has marked the file application.zip as 'blocked' because it was downloaded from the internet. To unblock it, right-click application.zip A meta data game mac os. and choose Properties. At the bottom of the Properties windows you should see the message 'Security: This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer'. Click the Unblock button sitting just to the right of that message, then click OK. The file application.zip is now unblocked. Unzip it and you should find the program itself (application.exe) as well as all supporting files.

W2. The application tells me it Can't find an 'OpenGL driver' for my 3D graphics hardware. What is an OpenGL driver and where can I find one?

Geometry Games software uses the standard cross-platform OpenGL graphics library, which in turn uses your computer's graphics circuitry to draw the games. A piece of software called an OpenGL driver forms the bridge between OpenGL and the graphics hardware. On most home computers this all happens automatically and you never need to think about it. Computer manufacturers like HP and Lenovo pre-install a high-quality OpenGL driver on every machine they ship, so if you bought a standard PC, the geometry games should run fast and well. If, however, you installed (or re-installed) Windows yourself, then please read on…

Microsoft Windows comes with a driver for OpenGL 1.4, which is far too obsolete to be usable. If you installed Windows from a distribution disk, you got Microsoft's crummy driver.

To correct the problem, you need to download a good driver from the web site of the company that manufactured your graphics processor. To determine who manufactured your graphics processor, go to Start : Control Panel : System : Hardware : Device Manager, click on the ‘+' next to your computer's name to see the list of hardware types, and then click on the ‘+' next to Display Adapters to see what graphics processor your computer has. Most likely you will have Intel Integrated Graphics, an AMD graphics card or an NVIDIA graphics card. You'll see its model number as well, which you'll need momentarily.

Intel Integrated Graphics. Go to Intel's download page, select your preferred language, and either

• let the Intel Driver Update Utility update your drivers automatically or
• look under Find by Category, set the product family to Graphics, select your product line and product name, and follow the instructions to install the graphics driver manually.

Calm cards - klondike mac os. AMD. Go to AMD's support page, click the button Find your driver, select your model number and operating system, and you'll arrive at a page where you can download a driver and find installation instructions.

NVIDIA. Go to NVIDIA's site and select your country (or closest match). In the likely case that you have a GeForce GPU, go to the Drivers menu and select GeForce Drivers to download the driver installer; when the download is complete, double-click the .exe file to install the new driver. In the unlikely case that you have a non-GeForce GPU, then from the Drivers menu you should select All NVIDIA drivers, then select your graphics processor's series (for example, an NVIDIA GeForce 6200 counts as the 'GeForce 6 Series') and operating system, and you'll arrive at a page where you can download a driver.

W3. Why did the application stop working when I upgraded to Windows 8?

If your computer has an Intel 4 Series Express chipset, the problem is that Intel provides no Windows 8 compatible OpenGL driver for it. If you have an Intel 4 Series Express chipset, the best solution is not to upgrade to Windows 8. If you've already upgraded to Windows 8, you may download an unofficial OpenGL driver.

If your computer has some other chipset (other than Intel 4 Series Express) please report your problem using the Geometry Games Contact Page.
