Yesssssss
It's my BeOS machine since it seems to be the best possible use of the second processor I upgraded it to an 8MB ixMicro TwinTurbo the other week so that I can do millions of colours at the native resolution of my LCD.A dual 604e 9600, nice!
This looks interesting, I'll investigate tomorrow I grabbed the archive of uploaded files so I could work out what was there. Was it a three track disk? Or two?For studioBuilder, I uploaded only the contents of the disc, it has an hfs track, weirdly enough...
There's a "large" archive for PPC, a small one for Intel and a zipped directory of media samples.
Added some screenshots too on the archive page.
I had exceptional graphics card luck when I went looking a while back...Only a single hfs track, unusual for BeOS software.
You can run apps in direct fullscreen mode with that ixMicro card I think, like Doom for example.
Not the case with a Mach64, from the quick tests I did some time ago.

You're welcome!

Sure, I can make an .iso later.It really is worth making a perfect image of any CD because it just means someone can just slap it onto a disk with confidence, from any operating system.
Corum III is x86 and PPC compatible, I always forget, contrary to other official retail games for BeOS like Civ CTP and Hopkins FBI.we've got another copy of Gobe Productive and also Corum III, which is a JRPG. If our Gobe is a different version than 2.01 we'll dump it, and also dump Corum III
My retro corner isn't networked usually sadly. I usually just write a CD if I want to keep the software anyway, and use my external CD Drive that supports CDRWs if I'm experimenting getting something working like a custom bootable disk.You could transfer the files via ftp to BeOS in the meantime, it usually works!
That would be great thanks!Sure, I can make an .iso later.
Feels like tomorrow we'll have quadrupled the amount of software available for PPC BeOS. There isn't much out there.we've got another copy of Gobe Productive and also Corum III, which is a JRPG. If our Gobe is a different version than 2.01 we'll dump it, and also dump Corum III
If you don't have a standard method of making bin / cue images, ImgBurn for Windows does it fairly easily.we've got another copy of Gobe Productive and also Corum III, which is a JRPG. If our Gobe is a different version than 2.01 we'll dump it, and also dump Corum III
I scanned the manual and the other sides of the box, if you want to add the files to your archive page:no problem! always glad to increase the amount of preserved obscure software in the world.
