I want to try my hand at some conversions of a few contemporary (mostly freeware) 2D indie games for 68000/68020/entry level 68030 Macs. Some I've been thinking of doing are: VVVVVV Forget-me-Not Thomas Was Alone Daymare Cat: http://www.pastelportal.com/daymare_town/index.php?id=dmt_cat...

Give them a crash course in Codewarrior, perhaps? :p Maybe we should start working on newer development environments for Mac OS 9. I just think there should be a way to teach interested developers how to code for the platform. You might try to get in touch with people who wrote software for...

Have you considered making a browser based on the Netsurf rendering engine? From what I can see, it has better rendering than the browser you have, and is much faster. The only real shortcoming I can see is lack of Javascript, which is required to use a lot of web sites these days.

Looks unfinished.

Exactly what it says on the tin. I'm just curious about what it actually looks like. I know that OS 8/9 has graphics for Black & White mode, and I've seen pictures of that, but I know OS 8 was also compatible with Macs that could use 16 color mode. Maybe someone could give me a screenshot...

I looked at the system profiler, and the card appears to be a Geforce 2 MX. The shop I took my computer was an Apple Authorized shop, by the way. Anyway, the drivers worked. But now the control strip is in that funky position. How do you movie it back down again?

I just got my Sawtooth G4 back from the shop with a new graphics card. I can't exactly tell what it's supposed to be, but it looks like a Geforce 4 MX. I don't have a digital camera, so I can't take pictures of the card, unfortunately. Anyway, I turned my computer back on, and I've lost 3D...

I'm pretty sure there were a few submarine simulations.

Actually, PowerFPU, the PPC version of SoftwareFPU, has been released as freeware. It's still slow, but much faster than SoftwareFPU. Edit: PowerFPU can be found on this page.

I was interested in this card for the reasons you mentioned, but it was more the fact that I currently make very little money. I get a $17.00 bi-weekly allowance from my parents, and any other money I make is through loose change or from various chores around the house. I really wanted to...

I've been thinking about this for a little while now, and it seems to me that in my old Elementary school, there were candy iMacs that could go all the way down to Black & White. I know this, because I remember playing a Muppet-themed educational game in school which repeatedly asked to be...

I don't know what to say. I guess this is just one of those games where nothing on the server was saved. :-/

Maybe you could narrow it down to retail?

Rig up an ethernet connection and get iCab 2.9.9 and Acuty (an RSS reader) on the thing. That oughtta shut up the non-believers. :b&w:
