    Doom on 68000 Macs?

    That what I’m saying! I have no experience with coding, but it would be an interesting experiment in creativity

    Doom on 68000 Macs?

    Would something like this be possible? Given the recent leak of Doom's (supposed) Mac source code, and the massive amounts of Doom ports and optimizations, I was curious as to whether this could be done (or reasons as to why it couldn't)...

    Mac Plus Sad Mac Error 03FFFF

    Thanks for the advice! as for progress, It's slow. I noticed that R31 (R55?) on the analog board is cracked. Assuming this is a problem, would this somehow relate to my dead Mac issues? Also is there any place to find a replacement?

    Update: Also resoldered the solder joints of the power connector and still nothing. Blah

    Mac Plus Sad Mac Error 03FFFF

    Welp, I resoldered all 10 joints and still no dice. Would sending a photo of the motherboard be beneficial? At this point I'm out of ideas so...

    Mac Plus Sad Mac Error 03FFFF

    I haven't used multimeters much, so I'll tell you what I'm doing in case it's wrong. I'm following page 38, but I'm not sure what DCV position to set the multimeter at. It says 2.5, 5, 25, 125, 500,1000. Regardless, the needle isn't moving whatever I set it to (the multimeter is an analog one)...

    Update! I finally got the replacement flyback and after installing it, still nothing happened, No chimes or anything. Any ideas? Here's what the soldering looks like in case I did something wrong

    Yep! the resistance of CR5 is between 11 and 12 as the Mac Scrolls says. Thanks for the book link btw that helps as well.

    I suppose you're right. Its what the Dead Mac Scrolls told me (Page 21) and I blindly followed. Any suggestions as to possibly replacing the power supply?

    Mac Plus Sad Mac Error 03FFFF

    Thanks for the diagnosis! That's good news. As for the bad news I think my flyback capacitor crapped out, cause my Mac isn't turning on anymore. No chimes or anything. based on the model of mine, is there a place to get a 157-0042-C? or could I possibly use the many apple alternatives floating...

    Here's the photo as you requested. As for the ram, where would I find those? Does any 30 pin 1mb dram chip work or would I have to scavenge another Mac for that?

    Mac Plus Sad Mac Error 03FFFF

    Once again I find myself with a problem I can't seem to diagnose. Not only is my Mac Plus showing this pixelated line, but its giving an error I can't find anywhere online. Other than that, there's a buzzing noise coming from somewhere near the speaker of the Mac. Ignore it being upside down...
