In reply to User.

Most physical machines couldn’t. And you need an attached serial debugger too.

Qemu has the best shot, although it can’t run os 8 so I kind of doubt it

Will this be able to run copland?

In reply to Rick Sarvas. I'm pretty sure the system feeds the date on the 1Hz clock, which reformats a UNIX clock into the Apple clock format... so I'd suppose that could be done. Although I suspect it'd be more useful in Basilisk II.

Any chance of getting SheepShaver to have a SheepShaver_prefs file option to subtract an offset to the date rather than picking up the current system date? Something like “offsetdate = 7300”, for example, to set the emulated system date back 20 years and allow the software to run correctly in a historic context.

In reply to Peter Godwin.

I’ve got most of my “fixes” running on OS X… I just haven’t kept a running update as the build environment is quite fragmented, unlike what I was doing with Basilisk II… and to be honest, PowerPC Mac emulation needs a lot more help than little old me can do.

But it has been nice, I was using Internet Explorer 5.1 and actually ran out of memory, instead of crashing every few minutes.

But there is no mistake JIT or not, Sheep is quite touchy.

In reply to Peter Godwin. World has enough Javascript slow crap and people working on it. Let neozeed work in Sheepshaver, he's doing a great work with it.

Thought you might want to play with something a bit more fun http://jsmess.textfiles.com/ – I’m sure you’ve had enough of SheepShaver!
