In about 2 days we are putting on a tournament at Classic Game Fest (classicgamefest.com)
The games are, Duke Nukem 3D and Quake III Arena. These are tournament matches, so we will network all of the Macs together. 6 Macs in total.
We have a lot of eMacs here, 1.25 GHz and 1.42 GHz. The problem is, we tried the OS X build of Duke (EDuke32) and it's horribly buggy.
The good news is, thanks to resources from here, we got the eMac 1.25 GHz (Radeon 9200) to boot OS 9! It was awesome, I almost lept into the air!
The bad news is, the Radeon is not accelerated! We are trying everything right now, various versions of drivers, etc.
Did anyone ever get this to be accelerated? We also have eMac 1.42 GHz, with Radeon 9600. We could use these instead, if the Radeon works.
I used this shell script, it's the only script that allowed the OS 9 Universal Unsupported ISO to boot. Whoever made the script should receive unlimited... favors
http://macos9lives.com/smforum/index.php?topic=3061.0We did edit the script slightly for "PowerMac4,4" since that seems to be the closest eMac model that natively booted OS 9. But that script doesn't work on the 1.42 in our testing so far, but I think it should.
Help!!! We have a deadline!!!!
