Well, it did work, until it didnt. Now it just hangs at the connecting screen, the one where it says "connecting to game.(server)/index.php", I cant even connect to the macos9lives server directly. I installed gamesprocket 1.7.5, and that seems to be the point where it stopped working. At least it loads the server list, but what good is that when i cant even play on any of them.

Yeah, there's a need for a more verbose download info. Thanks for the subtle knife stab, aBc ;)

Sadly it is not compatable with stock OS 9, youll have to use one of the disk images posted on this website for incompatable machines.

yes this is what I meant.
Because when I go to https://macos9lives.com/downloads I don't exactly which ones I need, that is why I asked.

Great that you got it going! I haven't visited the forum again until now. I would have recommended you do to a full reinstall since something seems a bit off about your install.

Glad it's fixed. See you on the server ;)

Good evening, I am back.

Here is the “perfect launcher” upon which I have settled.

I figured why try to bypass the Finder, which is perhaps the greatest file management system ever conceived. So I set about trying to remedy the “read only” issue so that my kids can’t mess up the launcher system. The solution to that was: disk images.

Here is how it looks. I maintain a folder full of aliases that launch the application in question, or launch a script that mounts CD images as needed then launches the application. Now, these aliases all reside on a read/write disk image made in Disk Copy. When I have finalized the contents of a given launcher folder (for example, “Kids’ Games” or “Utilities”, etc) I make a disk image of that folder and change its file type such that it opens with Virtual CD/DVD Utility. Now when the image is launched a “folder” (appears on the desktop containing aliases to all the applications in that category. The aliases can’t be moved, view settings can’t be permanently altered, not even window positions are remembered between disk image mounts. So no matter what the kids do they can’t mess up the list of applications that can be launched. And then I just have those disk images mount on startup.

Now the kids get to directly use the Finder to launch their games. There is never confusion as to how to reach the launcher, it’s just the desktop. If they accidentally drag the mounted image to the trash (I remember being a kid experimenting with seeing what can be trashed and what can’t… for years I thought if you drag the Macintosh HD to the trash it would immediately wipe the drive) it just reappears on reboot.

Plus it satisfies all my other criteria as listed in the OP. So there it is. The Finder is the perfect Launcher. It’s the most satisfying possible answer to this query.
