I've installed this game on my CC, and it's working great!

Added the Basilisk emulation, but can't get to run this in SheepShaver, even set to 256 colours.

Is there a way to use this without having Toast?

As long as you're happy...

Sounds as if you expect problems with re-saving a cdr image as cdr image...

It's not a big problem so far, as I've found a solution:
Open with Toast, save as CD image again.

Wouldn't you know it that's the one system I cannot test for myself! Everything else I've tested with has no problem. Either it's the version of OSX, or perhaps your installed Toast 9 associates with Toast files in some way that gives Mini vMac problems. Hmm. Anyway these kind of archives work great on my real macs and on PC's with emulators, and they're quick to open too.

Hm…,
version of Mini vMac: 3.1.3
Version of System 6 emulated: 6.0.8
No special INITs installed - preinstalled ones only
Mac OS X version 10.4.11 on a PowerBook G4
If it is a .sit file, I'm unstuffing with Stuffit Expander 7 or Unarchiver 2.1
If it is a .zip file, the Mac OS X-own unzip utility is used to unzip.
Toast (CD burner app) version used: 9.0.7, when dragging your files onto Toast and saving as CD image again, they mount fine.

IIGS User, what computer do you use, what operating system, what version of Mini vMac, and what version of System 6. And do you have any INITs installed in System 6. And how exactly are you unzipping the archive?

by IIGS_User - 2010, April 18 - 8:56am

I got the same problems like the other CD-ROM image some days ago, by not mounting in Mini vMac booted up with System 6.

But again, if I open the downloaded image right with Toast and save it again as CD disk image, it mounts fine.
