Basilisk II Atari

[mcknopf]

Basilisk works fine with sound at my Falcon in 030 mode but it hangs in 060 mode (CT63). Same configuration. Anyone who runs it with sound in 060 mode?

I’ve not been able to get sound to work without crashing running on the CT63. Also you need to use a different Mac ROM when running in CT63 vs 030 mode.

The Quadra 650 ROM is the one I use.

I love the idea of this but I can't use it on my falcon. I get a white screen with black border. This happens with radeon and on videl. I cannot turn off TOS in ram in CT60 firmware version 2.0 or greater. I am running 2.02.

Most likely the culprit is incompatibility with CT60 TOS-in-RAM option.
I'm guessing that feature probably use the PMMU to relocate TOS and Basilisk isn't smart enough to keep and work with an existing PMMU table but instead creates its own new one. So if something relied on an existing custom PMMU setup then that something is basically toast.
I'm pretty sure I had a todo note about this back then, but chances of it happening anytime soon are quite slim.

Edit; chances of it happening at some point is at least not zero :)
I would need to add support for exactly that when I have a proper go at making Basilisk work on Raven.
That might also generally clean up how it works on 68060. I had no experience with 040+ cpus back then and no machine to test on myself so CT60 support was done mostly in blind. It may or may not play nice with copyback cache or maybe require the CT60 5s delay hack.

Thought I'd give it a go with pistorm jit. After some teething trouble (usb mouse, read-only mounts and learning the nuances of basilisk), I now have basilisk working with APJ-OS. I had to downgrade the graphics to 16bit for basilisk. Performance looks good, but I don't have any comparisons to measure against.

Very cool.

I ran a number of old Mac games on my Falcon at the first Cyberlegends. The one that sticks in my mind as being a bit of a slideshow was F/A-18.

I rather suspect it will do well on your super-atari-mac. The demo is nice and small. Perhaps give that a try with the settings all turned up? :lol:

PS. It can also run UAE for Mac if you want to add another level of indirection to the mix. 8-)

Yeh I remember that, was really cool, what was the Golf game you were running too ?

I think that was 'Links Pro'. There was a CD image on one of the Mac emulation websites. Ran pretty well on DFB1.
