| Emulation: Binaries for Mini vMac 37 with LToUDP | |
| Posted by: cheesestraws on 2024-01-31 03:47:38 ... we're in 2024 and router manufacturers apparently still can't get IGMP snooping working properly. Great. (and yes, I typed 2023 to start with) | |
| Posted by: NJRoadfan on 2024-01-31 12:56:32 This is an older router, but still flawed. So far it: -Screws up IGMP (including Bonjour) -Screws up AppleTalk AARP packets -Has a completely broken RIP implementation -WAN side flips out and doesn't pass traffic if you have a private range IP (in double NAT situations). | |
| Posted by: Admiral Ackbar on 2024-02-21 12:05:54 Thank you! I was able to successfully use this version and an AirTalk box connected to my Mac Plus 4mb (and printer not modem cable) to access a share in Mini vMac. The version of Mini vMac (running on Windows 10) I paid-for didn't have the functionality.   | |
| Posted by: RichCini on 2025-01-03 07:10:27 I stumbled upon this thread while trying to solve why I don't get sound on any of my builds. I'm building from both 36.04 and 37.03 sources on my Mac (Intel running Sonoma 14.7.2) and the typical command is: ./setup_t -m 512Ke -mem 512K -t mc64 -hres 512 -vres 342 -speed a -magnify 1 -sound 1 > setup.sh && . ./setup.sh && make && plutil -replace NSHighResolutionCapable -string 0 minivmac.app/Contents/Info.plist The emulators work, there's just no sound, so I must be missing something on my system or I don't have some framework installed. Any help with what I could check for would be appreciated. Rich | |
| Posted by: robin-fo on 2025-01-03 08:02:22 This is very strange, do you get sound with a standard build of Mini vMac? | |
| Posted by: RichCini on 2025-01-03 08:17:47 If I run the pre-built ones from 2018, they work on my system with sound. If I build from sources, there's no sound. I happen to have a copy of OSX Sierra in a Parallel's VM that's a "virgin install" (meaning nothing added) that I keep for random things like this. I just compiled both 36.04 and 37.03 with the command line above (for 36.04; xcodebuild for 37.03) and it works with sound within the VM and on the host machine. Based on that, it must be something nutty with my software environment and/or OS version that prevents the sound support from working. While I don't think I'm going to be regularly rebuilding this from sources, it would be nice to figure out what's going on. Rich | |
Posted by: mikefort on 2025-12-31 07:58:22I'm not familar with Mike Fort's LToBPF. It looks similar to LToUDP in that it shovels raw LLAP frames over an Ethernet network. Wow, that was a long time ago... both the work I did on LToE and NJRoadfan's message. The LToE stuff is still kinda online. http://www.mfort.net/Mini_vMac_LT/Mini_vMac_LT.html I believe, without doing any thorough research, that I was first to emulate the SCCs. Once that was done, it should have opened the way for all sorts of opportunities, like LToUDP, etc. I can say that I was working on productizing my work into a router. I had a simple AppleTalk router in software, but wanted to move it to an Arduino/Pi, but lost steam. If anyone wants to continue the effort, I can share the software router. I was quite the AppleTalk/LocalTalk/EtherTalk guy at the time. | |
Posted by: cheesestraws on 2025-12-31 08:47:59Wow, that was a long time ago... both the work I did on LToE and NJRoadfan's message. Ah, hello! You found us! Yes, your work was absolutely key to getting LToUDP off the ground and working and I was hoping at some point I'd have the opportunity to thank you for it - it was very easy to drop in another protocol layer on top of the work you did in mini vMac. | |
