The Art Of Shattering Mac OS

The Art Of Shattering Mac OS

July 29th, 2008: Thank you to Alex Ferro who sent me this Mac OS X Universal Binary of the ARSS 0.2.3! It contains an installer that you just have to doucle-click. Alex also tells me that anyone who wants to compile the ARSS in Mac OS X should run the command 'gcc.c -o arss -lm -lfftw3 -O2'. May 30th, 2008: The ARSS 0.2.3 released. Shattering Glass: A Nasty Woman Press Anthology by Heather Graham, Kelli Stanley, et al.  Jun 16, 2020 4.5 out of 5 stars 16.

Essential improvements[edit]Run in DOSBox[edit]To improve DOSBox performance make the following changes to the DOSBox configuration file:
Change core=dynamic to core=normal (if not already)
Change cputype=auto to cputype=486_slow
Change memsize=16 to memsize=31
Change mpu401=intelligent to mpu401=none
DOS/32A[edit]DOS/32A is a more advanced extender and open source replacement to DOS4GW. It can improve both performance and stability of Shattered Steel greatly.
 To make SS8MEG.BAT compatible with DOS32A, replace the line set DOS4GVM=MAXMEM#16000000 with SET DOS32A=/EXTMEM:16000000.Skip intro videos[edit]

This is a list of old Macintoshsoftware that no longer runs on current Macs. The software might require Mac OS 9 or other versions of the classic Mac OS that can't run on Apple's current Intel machines. Note that most old programs can still be run using emulators, such as SheepShaver, vMac, or Basilisk II.
For a list of current programs, see List of Macintosh software. Third-party databases include VersionTracker, MacUpdate and iUseThis. Since a list like this might grow too big and become unmanageable, this list is confined to those programs for which a Wikipedia article exists.
