We can't know everything, don't worry. In the other world, there is a lot of utilities to mount bin/cue image & more things to do... Some of them could be useful to create images.
OK. I did not know Daemon Tools was available for Macs. Looks very useful indeed.
Sorry, but with the appropriate software (like Daemon Tools), a bin/cue file can be mounted on the Finder. However, it cannot be used by emulators (not recognized). So, the only way to use it like that, is to copy files into a folder & then create an image with Toast. While it's working, I'm not sure it is suitable for that task, especially for creating perfect copies...
I was a little confused since you could use bin/cue files in Windows...could, it seems that versions past Win XP actually don't detect anything other than the data, which means the Windows version won't pick up music, either. I guess mixed mode CDs are just too outdated.
Okay, so I'm going to have to figure out a way to burn some CDs if I'm gonna play this, one way or the other. Or make a VM.
TL;DR, was too late at night and I didn't do my full research.
As stated in the information about the bin/cue, you need to burn a physical CD which you can then mount. You cannot mount the bin/cue. Basically, the bin/cue provides the information needed to make an exact copy of the original CD.
The first download demands a CD, the second download doesn't seem to open in any image reading software or Mac emulator, nothing recognizes it as valid (the emulated computers try to have me initialize the bin or cue file, the software just says it's corrupt or invalid).
You might be able to get this working off of 10 Tons of Fun (not to mention the DOS/Windows version still runs fine on Win 10), but I thought I'd try to address this issue, for the sake of completeness.
Worked for me on a Power Mac 6500.
This looks like a game which should have music with it, but there doesn't seem to be any. Maybe we're missing some audio CD tracks?
Im using sheepshaver with os 9, but I cant get it to work. I mounted the file, extracted the files but It says I need a CD. I would appreciate some help. Thanks

Excellent pinball game.

I'd love to say I enjoy this game, but without a download link, there's nothing to enjoy! D:<
"lopaka1998" apparently edited this page yesterday and something must have gone wrong. I've had problems uploading things myself on occasion.
A good time waster. Never gets boring!
