Drag and drop my 2GB System 7.5.5 volume image on to Mini vMac to boot from that image file. It will later be included in the next official release. Drag and drop the correct ROM file on to Mini vMac (you can also rename the ROM file and store it in your Mini vMac folder to skip this step in the future. The project will be considered done when the implementation is available in a development source snapshot (on /develop/). This project will likely require around a month or two of my time to complete. Sector file tags, an extra 12 bytes of information for each 512 byte sector, may not be completely supported, since there is no place to put them in the usual disk image format. Such as mounting more than 2 disk images, using disk images of size other than 400K or 800K, and also the entire extension mechanism, so importing and exporting of files and the clipboard wouldn’t work.
#Mini vmac working rom software#
This would only be a compile time option, not the default, since very little Macintosh software would notice the difference, it would be much slower, and it would lose a lot of the features of Mini vMac. For this project I will improve emulation of the IWM chip, and emulate the floppy drive, so that Mini vMac will work without this or any other ROM patch, to help make the emulation as accurate as possible. Also, the Menu button, Scale button, and Keyboard work its just Insert is not doing anything. I installed the one with the name Mini-vMac-3DS-Macintosh-Plus.3dsx because I have the old 3DS. Instead the ROM is patched with a replacement disk driver. I followed the readme and put MacII.rom and vmac.rom in /3ds/minivmac and I also put a startup disk (MinivMacBoot1.dsk) and Games2.dsk in there too.
(Such as by using ImportFl.) Mount the fdisasm-1.2.8 disk image, copy the FDisasm application to the fdplus disk image, and then.
#Mini vmac working rom plus#
Mount the fdplusv3-0.4.3 disk image, and import a copy of the Macintosh Plus ROM onto it. Mini vMac emulates most of the hardware of the Macintosh Plus, but not the floppy drive. To use FDisasm to disassemble the Macintosh Plus ROM, launch Mini vMac and boot from a disk image containing a system folder. Macintosh ROM files are owned by Apple and cannot be legally distributed. vMac and Mini vMac require a Macintosh Plus ROM file and Macintosh system software to work.
Update: Mini vMac no longer requests pledges. The precompiled versions available for download at Mini vMacs SourceForge project emulates a Macintosh Plus with 4 MiB of RAM.
