Title: Download help - Hotline client for Monterey and finding old info
Post by: G40 on September 30, 2024, 01:37:04 AM
Hi,

Having trouble accessing downloads. I can't find a suitable hotline client for my semi-modern mac which runs Monterey. In theory it looks like Obsession should support it but I can't find a link to the actual software... any ideas?

Also I downloaded a bunch of stuff from the old site previously but in some cases I'm not able to install without the info (serial numbers etc.) the old pages provided. Is this still available anywhere?

Thanks!

Google to the rescue.  :-[

https://ports.macports.org/port/Obsession/

https://www.macports.org/install.php

Seems to work well - would recommend for "modern" mac users.

Nice that you found it! It's available here as well: https://github.com/tjohnman/Obsession

Yep, that's the link for the project but I found it was a dead end for actually downloading & installing it on my mac. Unless I'm missing something.

What about this one?

https://github.com/tjohnman/Obsession/releases/download/v109.01-alpha/Obsession.109.01.alpha.zip

64 bit application, compiled for High Sierra.

P.S. I can't believe that we're discussing Intel stuff and such modern systems here.  >:(

Ah, you could be right, thanks.

All my OS9 machines remain offline - for now!

The compiled binarys are in the "Releases" section on the right. It's a bit hard to see if you're not an avid GitHub user. We'll make sure to mirror all the clients here so no one has to look around like it is now.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
