    [High Score Challenge 02] new batch: Mouse Stampede 2.0, Crystal Quest 2.2, Crab Attack II

    Do you mean 200,000? You can shoot them or bomb them out with space. I typically rush to get the most problematic crystals near the enemy gates first so I don't have to do it in a late stage of a level when there's tons of stuff flying around.

    I deleted your lower scores, made no sense to lock you out of beating your best stuff from Jan 31st. 7 days left if you want it! @Ron's Computer Videos

    [High Score Challenge 02] new batch: Mouse Stampede 2.0, Crystal Quest 2.2, Crab Attack II

    Crab attack II is really hard. It's a mouse destroyer of a game, so I recommend playing on a laptop where you can freely tap on a trackpad without fear of destroying a mouse button. I got to the trilobytes in beach 2 and still have no idea how to get past them. I asked the developper Andrew...

    Trying BlueSCSI on a PB170 (have working PB180 for troubleshooting)

    I've ruled that out fairly quickly, I know about this and have to do it with my SE (pre analog board full recap, haven't tested after recap) buy not with my classic 1 (pre full analog board recap...still have to do that one). I'll disassemble my pb170 fully and check for bad stuff. So far...

    FloppyEmu Dec firmware patches bug? HD20 mode won't be set

    The solution was proposed by the project lead on his website: I had to stop using emumode.txt on my uSD card - all I had to do was delete this entirely from the root folder level of my uSD card. This is in conflict with the way you select the boot mode with the physical device interface.

    [High Score Challenge 02] new batch: Mouse Stampede 2.0, Crystal Quest 2.2, Crab Attack II

    I also have a copy of Mouse Stampede 1 somewhere on my disks. It was a simply drag and drop copy, not the original commercial disk. It might lay somewhere in one multiple game diskette, or inside one of my failed hard disks. I was surprised to see Mouse Stampede v2 that late in the era (1994?!)...

    I'll try my first attempts as testing out the field, having fun, not worrying about the competition: 129,267 in Mouse Stampede.

    I made a Sing Along program in C for my old Mac Plus!

    I added the app, the source code and the Studio Session song file in the OP with this link: https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/last-unicorn-sing-along

    Trying BlueSCSI on a PB170 (have working PB180 for troubleshooting)

    CHECK THAT NASTY S Still getting a chime + gray pattern + no ''?' diskette icon behavior (no external SCSI either), both before and after doing the double recessed reset for 10s.

    Trying BlueSCSI on a PB170 (have working PB180 for troubleshooting)

    Simply transporting the HD30-SCSI25-OvereasyII-BlueSCSI assembly I have from the non-working PB170 to working PB180 proves that it's not that issue. I made sure I was able to boot my Mac Plus with it, as well as have the HD image mount from my PB180. That's possible, but wouldn't you still...

    Trying BlueSCSI on a PB170 (have working PB180 for troubleshooting)

    Can't seem to give my PB170 interesting boot options. The internal HD is dead. PB180 Behavior: Everything works instantly with my PB180 (same power adapter, same external bluescsi assembly, working internal HD though). PB170 Behavior, initially: w/ external BlueSCSI plugged in: I got a gray...

    I made a Sing Along program in C for my old Mac Plus!

    Go watch it. A lot of very young kids watched it back in the day when they were 2-7 years old only to be trapped by truly tragic and grown up themes throughout the movie. Many people report being marked by that film, in a mostly good way. Process for graphics: I use Photoshop CS 2 to convert to...

    I made a Sing Along program in C for my old Mac Plus!

    It's an ancient beast. Best to play it on a Mac compact. Maybe SE or Classic 1 and below. Maybe it runs on a SE/30 but I doubt it . Or, mini-vMac way.

    You can't do autofire in crab attack so if you have a modern interface to plug a throwaway mouse, do it!!!

    68k ScrnBase and its alternate screen address

    It's not a game engine yet, but it could be. No, I was working (for now) on a sing-along type app for The Last Unicorn's theme song. It follows the song at the syllable level. The graphics are changed with screen flip so as to never show any weakness in the graphic speed department. I'll made...
