Thanks diskdoctor but Apple ][ are not Macintosh. I am talking about the old computer from the late 70's and early 80'.

@eliyahu: i have found apple2000 on aminet but it does not seem to accept several ROM files i have tried.

I haven't been to the point of testing some disks, only trying my ROM files, renamed accordingly to the manual in _Apple.ROM.

Hello.

Thanks to the infos from users in this thread, i have been able to find the good sized rom for Apple 2000. It is now working fine with Ultima IV.

However, acess to disk files is pretty slow. Is that normal?

Hi.

I didn't have the chance to thank you for this useful answer but better late than never and the Amiga time is a very long time anyway.

I am tinkering again with Apple2000 to try some games.
UltimaIV works but i have no music and only some sounds.
Prince of Persia hangs.
Arkanoid works but the emulator seems to have issue with the joystick control and the platform can only be moved to 3 positions.

I know you value the emulator to test programs but did you do any gaming on it?

Thanks.

Hey, it just appeared to me that an Apple II won't do music apart from beeps from its buzzer if it doesn't have a Mockingboard or whatever soundcard.
Indeed, UltimaIV has an option to set up an audio card.
It seems there is no sound card emulation included in Apple2000 emulator unfortunately.
