Shapeshifter. Best mac os for 030?

[Bamiga2002]

Warcraft II working with ShapeShifter 3.11 here.

Yes tried it (full version on EAB server) and it didn't work for me. But it's useless anyway since there's CardTrickEVD and PippinEVD with RTG to use.
PS. I think it SavagePPC works only with older Shapeshifter versions

Are either of those needed once you have a gfx card? I seem to recall it working just fine under CGX without any additional drivers. Although Pippin was an overlay one IIRC. I never used it as I used to run it fullscreen 1280x1024.

[Bamiga2002]

On my A1200 with Med+voodoo3 I use CardTrickEVD. It's faster than the drivers that come by default. So it's not necessarily needed but I definitely recommend it. Okayish < FAST
And use "direct" mode

Decided it was time to finally get round to trying Shapeshifter on my A1200 030/25mhz (64 mb RAM).

Followed all the steps in Cammy's tutorial but on Mac OC booting it stops and says "Sorry A System Error Occurred, error type 10" and I have to Restart.

Holding down shift and disabling extensions makes no difference either, any ideas?

[LiveForIt]

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?

You need to disable superscalar I belive. Before starting shapeshifter / Fusion.
I don't have a 68060 my self, so I can't help you anymore, but you should find some info about it using google or maybe some else can show you how to.

OMG Cammy you're the best!

If anyone would like to try Shapeshifter on their Amiga, I have gone to the effort of mounting and installing all the disk images for OS 7.6 as well as the 7.6.1 updates and all the other updates available, including the later Appearance Manager extension which makes OS7 look like OS8. These are all official Apple updates and are freely available on their site, along with the disk images for the OS, but I have installed it all and packaged the harddrive file for anyone else to try.

All you need to run it on a sufficiently expanded 020-060 Amiga are:

ShapeShifter 3.11 - http://aminet.net/package/misc/emu/ShapeShifter
MuEVD - http://aminet.net/package/misc/emu/MuEVD
MuFastZero - http://aminet.net/package/util/boot/MuFastZero
VirtualLink - http://aminet.net/package/comm/tcp/vlink

Here are the recommended ROM and OS for each CPU type:

Remember: You can play games like Warcraft II, Links Pro Golf, Settlers II, Prince of Persia II and other cool games and sequels that weren't released on the Amiga, all in 640x480 in 256 colours! With the AMAZING MuEVD video driver, these games are totally playable on a 030 AGA machine.
