I want to get a sense of which PC category was at the same time as which Mac categories There's no general enough forum section to post this, so maybe it can work here! There's a big chunk of mac history that's opaque to me, when I switched away from B&W computers and into DOS around 1992...

Just nabbed those this morning. I told myself I wouldn't dive deep in box collecting. I failed. I couldn't pass up Ancient Art of war, Ultima Underworld and Might and Magic III. I already started a playthrough of EotB1 a few months ago so why not. The rest is known by reputation or are games...

This black and white port of 'The Ancient Art of War' from Brøderbund was released in 1985, one year after the IBM PC release of 1984. Video footage here: It was probably released with the Mac 512k in mind. Considered the grand daddy of real-time-strategy games, this featured unit condition...

Did you flash the firmware to the latest and greatest? It started working better with mine after I did that one 2 occasions. I couldn't use the default simple flash program so I had to reupload the compiled project from Visual Studio using a project task ('upload').

It seems like the premade images from Mac garden don't play nice with Mac Plusea, tons of people report this. I also had problems avoiding a mouse location freeze problem (the click still works but I can't move it) which appears after a few minutes of normal operations! Perhaps the same...

DOOM II I don't know but here's how DOOM 1 results are obtained, at least on the PC: https://thandor.net/benchmark/32 edit - seems like it's similar for DOOM II : https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.computer.doom.playing/c/CfC_KWwAmC4 there must be a way to provoke command line parameters on...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5a_0grWpr8 I just got a Kawai XC-3 GMega LX (a midi module I knew absolutely nothing about) so I took it for a spin and compared it to my Roland Sound Canvas-88ST and a SB pro clone chip from Cirrus Logic, the crystal CS4237B-KQ (running inside my weecee). 3...

At home: *Weecee (small silver box on top) running as a Pentium 233 MHz x86 machine and a 8gb microSD in 2gb partitions *Kawai XC-3 GMega LX midi module *Roland SC-88ST midi module *Roland MT-32 midi module *Passive sound mixer allowing SB Pro output and midi sound simultaneously (running...

Next victim is @eric Helgeson of BlueSCSI fame, in fully captured process from my Mac Plus via a RGB2HDMI.

Yes, but with a very slow scrollbar interface and very limited options, that need to be then transfered to Mac Paint or an alternative to overcome these shortcomings.

A @Ron's Computer Videos appears !!! (https://www.youtube.com/c/RonsComputerVideos)

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 @MacintoshLibrarian ), youtube channel https://youtube.com/c/MacintoshLibrarian… . I was granted permission to post her likeness:

PC also has PCEm, incudling tons of video cards that dosbox can't even approach to emulate https://pcem-emulator.co.uk/ compatibility list: https://pcem-emulator.co.uk/status.html

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!

I found an article in Mac User's July 1986!

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...

For the other keys that weren't part of that sequence of traces, I had to tweak the conductive part that gets pushed to establish continuity when you press the key. I found this video which greatly help: The part of a non-working key looks like this when it's removed: This is how I looked...

Did you have issues with the occasional video glitch with your RGB2HDMI? My image is rock solid on my Mac Plus, but I'll have once-per-minute video twitches on the feed I get. I'd love to compare notes with your config file if you don't mind. I didn't solder my wires into the J8 connector of...
