I’ve been fiddling around with MagiCMac, trying to work out what it can do and what it can’t. Turns out that what can do is not very much, at least in my experience, and compatibility seems to be poor. I’m thinking that I might compile a list of the software that I have been able to get it to run successfully.
So, my questions are these:
1. What software have you managed to run successfully on MagiCMac?
2. What have people done to boost compatibility, either in terms or configuration or in terms of add-ons?
3. Do any development environments, particularly Basic, C or Pascal work correctly?
4. Do any games run? I wouldn’t expect fast moving arcade games which drive the hardware directly to work - but surely some puzzles, or text adventures which shouldn’t need to call anything more than Gem should work fine.
All thoughts gratefully received.
