I'm using the Mac emulator Basilisk II and it runs fine for Escape Velocity, but for some strange reason EVO runs very slowly and seems to skip frames ( no, I don't have caps lock on ) .
My system is as follows:
500 mhz K-6 II proccessor 128 megs of RAM 5400 rpm 6gb HD TNT2 M64 PCI video card
The way I see it, there are a few possible causes: 1. My system is just too slow. ( seems unlikely though, considering EV is running at 78 fps and quite smoothly ) 2. Under video modes in Basilisk , it says "If the refresh rates are all zeroes, your video adapter/driver does not support enumerating refresh rates. Update the driver software. Upgrading to a newer version of DirectX may help too. Of course, it does show all the refresh rates at 0 hertz, but I have DirectX 8.1a and the newest possible drivers for the TNT ( 12.01 ). 3. EVO doesn't like some system setting. 4. I have System 7.5.3, maybe I should update it to 7.6?
The other problem is decoding under Basilisk II. I can run any file thats already decoded ( such as installers ) but, if I try to decode a file with the Windows version of Stuffit Expander ( even with all the cross platform options on for Macs ) Mac OS says it can't find the appropriate translations and/or extensions. Is there a way to solve this?
Thanks

I had System 7.5.3 for a while, and EVO worked fine under it, so that's not your problem. (Now, however, I have System 7.5.5.) 'Course, I also have a real-life, honest-to-goodness Macintosh.

hey man, u should use an emulator called ARDI Executer for Windows. I use it, its pretty good. And u dont need a Rom to use it, its just software, its shareware and runs really fast. (url="http://"http://www.ardi.com")www.ardi.com(/url)
