Mac Amiga Emulation & Lion

Washac · 15 August 2011, 12:32

Hello

Just when I had my Amiga emulation all working how I liked on my Mac under
Snow Leopard, along comes Lion and now I cannot get it running.

I am using Hi-Toro version 0.5 (0.5.2) and E-UAE Bundle version 0.8.29

A directory had been changed all OK now

Sorry.

Thanks.

Hi, you may want to try one of the PUAE Mac OS X builds, which improve on E-UAE.

I wouldn't know since Apple won't let Core Duo Mac owners play with Lion, despite people being able to install it on more recent Macs and then clone the hard drive to their 'obsolete' Macs... where it runs perfectly fine. They did the same thing with iTunes and older Shuffles. Fascists!

I'm more concerned with their complete removal of the Rosetta emulator and support for PPC binaries. Removing decent emulation features to force users to ditch legacy software is not cool.

Another example of Job's way or the highway! It's hardly going to make people swear allegiance to Apple is it. Which software would you be unable to run if you upgraded?

I for one am not going to be manipulated into upgrading when my current Mac does everything I want it to. At this point I'm more likely to make my next computer Linux-based.

I'm still using iTunes 7 for the same reason - it's the last version that will allow syncing with my 2nd generation Shuffle. In effect I'll never be making any purchases from their shiny new app store seeing as you can't access it via earlier versions of iTunes, so that one backfired too.

Here's how to go about installing Lion on a core duo Mac. Funny how it's essentially a matter of flicking a switch to make them compatible. The minimum specs were totally fabricated to fit Apple's business plan. Nothing at all to do with limitations of the platform.

Hello

After a few weeks with Lion I switched back to Snow Leopard.

As has been said it does what I want it and need it to do and it runs
Rossetta, now back to reinstalling Baldurs Gate II and Icewind Dale etc.

From what I read lots are switching back.

Believe me, I'm tempted! Trying to get a working toolchain has left me unable to build PUAE again. I might end up reinstalling this afternoon

I have xcode 3.2.6 working on Lion, but it produces stuff that crashes as soon as I try to use anything other than a 68000 processor. Looks like a nasty job to debug, too

I've emailed GnoStiC but not heard back. Will keep pestering him

, but I know he's busy.

Macbook Air 13" with OS X Lion and E-UAE is mighty fine for me.

HiTorro 0.5.2
E-UAE 0.8.29-WIP4

Hello

Lost all my links a while back.
There was a website that explained how to setup different configs for Hi-Toro/E-UAE, all I can recall is that it started with the letter B, something like bacion bricanion.

Does/can anybody recall or know of it at all ?

If not any other site for the same purpose, I just want it for reference.

Thanks.

PS: I did Revert back to Snow Leopard, things are sweet again.

I reckon this is what you're looking for.
