Cammy you beautiful beast you! Thanks for putting this pack together and for all the links!!!!!

On a side note, how does Fusion compare with Shapeshifter? I heard it was faster?

This site might be of interest to those of you who get this working...

...I've still not gotten around to messing with it yet, so I dunno if these files are ShapeShifter friendly yet or not.

shapeshifter's prepareemul locks up my system when I double click it! :/

Without that I can't use Shapeshifter at all can I?

MuFastZero On - came back with an error, but I forgot to write it down and bring it with me. Doe! :/

Oh and Shape Shifter says that the ShapeShifter rom is not present or is corrupt. Yippy! :)

Hi,

@Cammy,

Thanks for the info, always wanted to try getting shapeshifter running, will try this weekend.

If you ever need anything let me know, maybe I can help.

Tell me about it, I've been offering to come over and arrange her under garment  drawers for months now. Is it just the pretty Amiga girl effect, or am I sincerely a nice guy deep down inside? We may never know. ;)

OK I resolved my issue with MRFastZero, but now when ever the Mac first shows the little Mac Computer Icon to let me know it is booting...

...my Amiga crashes. :(

Fusion PPC actually released?

Anyhow, DOSBox is not to friendly with PPC machines. The most one can play on my eMac are low end 386 titles.

Cammy, if I hold Shift, my system locks, no reboot. I have to power down to get back to the OS.

Does Shapeshifter need an FPU or something? Or I am wondering...

since RAD will not use my Apollo 060's Fast RAM, maybe some other programs like Shape Shifter are having issue with it too?


Also can I just use the Addbuffers command in my user-startup?

It's all your fault Cammy! You are the Pied Piper of false hopes!!! Shame on you! ;)

I'll keep tinkering. I'm also going to play with this on my 600 tonight as well. Will report....

I'm really sorry but I'm stumped as to why Shapeshifter is crashing while it starts up on your 060. :( I know other people have definitely run it on them though, so don't give up. Perhaps there's an option somewhere that needs to be selected, or perhaps you need to try a different boot image or ROM file.

Shapeshifter doesn't need a FPU. My A1200 and A600 don't have them.

You can definitely add the AddBuffers command to the User-Startup, but I think you can also effectively do the same thing by increasing the buffers for each partition in HDToolBox as well, which might be more efficient than adding extra commands to the boot sequence.
