After fretting over the onslaught of available color classics over at Yahoo Auctions Japan and seeing amazing prices from time to time, I attempted to nab one, fully prepared to have to put in some serious rework on the logic and possibly analog pcbs if I ever won an auction. I've read multiple...

Today, this thread was really useful to me as I ordered a cap kit in my attempt to make my SE a little more rock solid in its video output. Thanks!

Really cool project. I love using a RGB2HDMI on my monochrome macs and I'd be all over this if I even owned a nubus equipped mac, but I don't. I might land my hands on a working color classic soon, so I'll have to research my options to bring its video to the modern world.

For old school macs, I recommend these steps: -Hypercard: it'll make you aware of the graphical interface elements that need to interact with each other (ie text input box, buttons, scollbars, icons) and you'll have the keyword list in mind. You don't need to mess with the initialization of...

I just tried these steps and it worked on my end. The disk was even MSDOS formatted, but I was able to copy a mac file to it. I'm using Basilisk II 1.1 with the year stamp 1997-2008. Another alternative you can use for file transfer is HFVExplorer...

My take in 2022 is pretty much what I'd have written at the start of the this thread: Games: Dark Castle, Glider, Uninvited Software: MacPaint, Studio Session or even Cubase if you have a midi module with the adapter to connect it to serial modem/printer, VideoWorks with an animation (see the...

A FloppyEMU is: -a bit more expensive to buy -very easy to use, almost no possible snag to hit compared to BlueSCSI -slower -more humble space wise in hard disk mode, but for Classics that's alright - this means if you have ideas of grandeurs, it won't be your go to solution! I own a pair of...

I've been a PC user since the early 90's since I switched away from Macs and been using Mac emulators since 2004. This is exactly my home turf. If you have a working Mac Classic disk drive that can deal with 1.44mb disks fine: get a USB disk drive for your PC and deal with .sit files inside an...

I went back down memory lane and revisited this game that I had back in the day in the halcyon years of having so few choices (a handful) of software that you would have time to turn every stone in each of them. AAoW was one of those. I was inspired to capture the gaming session straight...

depending on if you can use it for other machines, go full RaSCSI (good luck finding a rpi right now if you don't have one) and get internet access (through an emulated dayna port image) and incredibly useful storage, as well as hosted cd images. It's a bit overkill for a Classic (can it even...

In order to promote my channel (I have no serious intentions for it, I just mostly want to capture direct video footage out of a Plus with a RGB2HDMI), I'll launch a contest of the type: post a comment in the video, subscribe and I'll do YER FACE, lucky winner :D Most portraits have taken...

here's a 4th mugshot attempt to recreate the face of Steve (aka u/Mac84tv ), youtube channel https://youtube.com/channel/UCW-HHEyt67RhZ6q21n4p2zQ. Again, I ensured I had permission before I posted this.

here's a 3rd mugshot attempt to recreate the face of Kate (aka Ms. Fox), youtube channel https://youtube.com/c/MacintoshLibrarian… . I was granted permission to post her likeness:

Here's a second mugshot attempt to recreate the face of Jarrod Ford (aka gruz), of the youtube channel 'Classic Mac Gaming' https://www.youtube.com/c/insanelygruz , also the creator of Flappy Mac. I was granted permission to post his likeness and hopefully I'll be able to share others!

No and I'm scared to ........ I'll check it out.

You only get the smallest hints of smiles with this piece of software. Mugshots aren't happy shots. I highly doubt this was used outside of dinking around and entertaining kids and kids at heart.

Anyone familiar with Mac-a-Mug Pro? This was a commercially available MS Basic 2.0 program (!!!) made by James E. Haynor (Shaherazam) which let you do mugshots out of a selection of options for face parts and a few accessories (glasses, hats, etc). Some were very limited, some were more...

@olePigeon Nope, think the other coast (kinda), think another country as well ;) But CopyIIMac was used to at least make a functioning physical dupe.

Here's a direct capture of the gameplay (video captured from the analog board through a RGB2HDMI and sound captured from the headphone jack);

His preset for a Classic was for an earlier version of the kernal for the project, it had confounded me for a bit but I ended up finding it after a while, iirc it's in the Sampling menu. I half remember that I had to actively turning sync on green from on to off (dunno if it was my mistake or...
