    Anyone remember the OJ Simpson chase animation on older Macs?

    Ok, I really appreciate the attention everyone is giving this. Seriously, it’s great to see this community come together to feed nostalgia and troubleshoot something so absurd! I cannot ask for any more than this—you have collectively answered my question and I thank you for that! I contend that...

    Anyone remember the OJ Simpson chase animation on older Macs?

    It seems like a good idea, and I did try it—still just a flash and nothing. I am definitely starting to question my own recollection of the system I used. I maintained that it just HAD to be on a Mac Plus, but in 1994, there may be a chance I saw it on a Quadra 660AV. I know, that changes a...

    Anyone remember the OJ Simpson chase animation on older Macs?

    Hmm. Well, I think this must be a knock off, or the one I am thinking of was a knockoff. I dunno why I first tried it with system 8.1 since that was obviously outside my own timing parameters. Yet, in spite of trying more appropriate versions of MacOS, I can’t get it to work. I can get it to...

    Anyone remember the OJ Simpson chase animation on older Macs?

    Tried it on Infinite Mac, running 8.1, AD 2 works fine on that system, but this module doesn’t appear. AD 3 it does appear but actually none of the AD screensavers works. I am sure I will eventually find a working combo virtual or real hardware, but the missing audio is a bummer. However, this...

    OH YES! Thanks so much. Going to give it a try now!

    Anyone remember the OJ Simpson chase animation on older Macs?

    It‘s worth mentioning that I have already spent time searching info-mac and other archives and even employed the help of AI to try to track this down. In the end, I figure my best shot is finding someone who saw this and squirreled away a copy.

    Anyone remember the OJ Simpson chase animation on older Macs?

    This is one of those questions like “on the tip of my tongue” but instead of trying to remember some TV show or movie, I am looking for information about a silly piece of software I downloaded from some BBS in the 90s. Everyone who lived through the events surrounding OJ Simpson‘s white bronco...

    Tucows Mac Software Collection

    Or, maybe it is now? I never even considered grabbing my own mirror of these old software archives, but at around 5 gigs, this is like streaming a single movie so why not? Download is working for me right now.

    3D Printing & MacEffects Appreciation

    Love that price! Shipping will probably be several times higher than that, but I can understand, given all of the options why a service like JLC3DP can make a lot of sense vs. getting in to a DIY setup (and honestly, another big hobby). If you decide to get these, I am confident one of them...

    you’ll have to trim out the one you want to use, but there will be options!

    I used black PLA. How about this. I will make a set, staring with a .2mm brim that links together a few different versions, each with thin to thicker bottoms giving you a variety— say .5mm, 1mm, 1.5mm and 2mm giving you some flexibility with feel. 1mm worked fine for me but who knows how much...

    I can’t fault them for that. . .as it also preserves the supreme clarity of the top shell. And maybe not all internal PCBs or microswitches are the same. In any case, the button works beautifully now. I was afraid I would never get used to the stiffer button—especially fatiguing with a drag. The...

    How big does the brim have t be again? I printed mine with a brim because I didn’t want it to pop off the print bed it is so tiny. . . but that was slicer generated. I could make one with a .2mm brim built in. This is something you could probably knock together with a straw and baking soda +...

    Ok, time to add another tiny update to this thread. . . My MacEffects clear mouse shell is great, and I even added handmade clear ADB cord. But the button which is a flexing portion of the upper shell has always been very difficult to click. Maybe this is true for others, or maybe it's just the...
