Burgeoning Battle Gamma genexile Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 Okay, i got this Mac emulator, and i need the rom, if it exist. If someone can find it or create it(good luck!), i would be ever thankfull, and i'll do anything! For now, i just can play it when i am at my friend's house, and now, i cant play it, because my friend is on a camping trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 If I'm not mistaken, if you actually can emulate a Mac OS, all you need to do is download GF3 from the Spiderweb site and try to run it. It doesn't need to be converted in any way. If you need something converted, you don't have something that can really emulate a Mac OS.

Garrulous Glaahk Timber-Wolf Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 I think he means the rom of the mac OS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 There's no such thing as a "ROM of the Mac OS"; an operating system is software, while ROM is firmware. What he wants is a ROM of an Apple Macintosh computer. Without knowing exactly which computers his particular emulator supports, I can't help (and besides, downloading one would likely be copyright infringement, which these boards don't approve of.)

Burgeoning Battle Gamma genexile Posted April 11, 2005 Author Share Posted April 11, 2005 I downloaded the install file, but i cant read .bin files on my pc. Thats the only problem. The mac is minivmac, if you heard something about it. If not, i think i have the link in my history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 *giggles* Sorry, but Mini vMac emulates a Mac Plus, which is a Mac that was made over a decade ago. Geneforge won't run on it. I'd tell you how to decompress the file anyway, but there wouldn't be much point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgeoning Battle Gamma genexile Posted April 12, 2005 Author Share Posted April 12, 2005 I got sheepshaver, and deleted minimacv. I can't install gf3 because its on a .bin file ,but can you help me please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 To decompress .bin (MacBinary) files, use Stuffit Expander: http://www.stuffit.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgeoning Battle Gamma genexile Posted April 12, 2005 Author Share Posted April 12, 2005 It dosnt decompress .bin files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 One of the first things Google came up with. I can't vouch for its usefulness, but it sounds vaguely authoritative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 That's a different kind of .bin. It's a poor choice of file extension, really. But I don't know why Expander shouldn't be working. Is it giving an error message? EDIT: Hmm. Seems as if Expander for Windows can't decompress MacBinary. This actually isn't entirely surprising, considering that MacBinary is usually used to store Mac files, which have resource forks, which Windows can't handle anyway. Try downloading Stuffit Expander for Mac and using it within your Mac emulator to decompress the file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
