"Death" icon in 128k guided tour's Finder

[macgeek417]

So I was ResEditing (from Mini vMac - compiled for mac 128k) the Mac 128k Guided Tour disk in hopes of creating a normal system 0.85 startup disk, and while editing the Finder, found that ICN# ID 9998 appears to be an icon of what appears to be "Death". I'll probebly post a screenshot later.

Anyone else seen this?

Assume you already searched the forum for this (which may save you a little time): System 0.85

Thanks, Mac128k, but the link to it is a dead link.

and archive.org doesn't have it in its archive. :'(

Anyone wanna send me a good link???

Cool. I've uploaded this icon to our wiki. If anyone learns more about its background, write it up there!

Nope it is a good link right here in this forum. Tested it on three browsers.

But if it still does not work for you, just search for "System 0.85" from the menu above and it will come right up.

continuing problem with search on this forum: searching for that exact title won't even pull up the thread as the search engine won't recognize 0.85, .85, or 85

But there are links to it in other threads which search for "System guided Tour", though if my link here didn't work for you, those links won't either. Looks like you need a new browser. :beige:

But don't worry, we re-invent the wheel around here a lot!

Mac128k, you missunderstood me. the links to the copies of 0.85 are dead, not to the post.



I'm using Firefox 3

Ah, PM iMac600 as he's still active here. I'm sure he'd post it again if you are interested. Hopefully this thread will catch his eye ... he posted several different links due to problems with them and it seems they are ALL dead now.

Nah... One of the other threads had a working (and from the description, better) link!
