What the... do you run halo on OS 9? Why not just using virtualbox or parallels to emulate OS X?

Also Halo is now universal binary! Can't you run that?

SheepShaver emulates Mac OS 9, which does not run Halo. Halo only works on Mac OS X 10.2.8 or newer and Windows 98 or newer. Unless you're on Linux, it's unnecessary to emulate it because there is a newer Universal Binary version. If you're getting any issues with running Halo UB, please tell us.

If you are running the earlier builds of Halo, which only work on the PowerPC architecture, SheepShaver will still not emulate it. You must (somehow) get the newer Universal Binary version if you plan to run Halo on an Intel architecture.

Finally, if you're talking about Halo Demo, you should post in the Halo Demo forum. More people post on that forum and can handle any problems you may have, if you have any.

It's a little redundant to emulate Mac OS X on parallels which only works on Mac OS X, unless you're trying to get a low framerate.

lol, yeah, but if on 10.6.8 you emulate 10.4 then you can start classic from there without having to run sheepshaver!

So you can play all your old games like tomb rider and bugdom! Remember bugdom?




geez i must stop spamming so much

Bugdom was awesome. I used to play it a lot until we switched to 10.5. No more classic mode. :\

Halo is too new for SheepShaver.

Bugdom and nanosaur. Those were my childhood games.

Nanosaur was awesome. Nanosaur 2 was about as good, until I kept crashing into trees, most of these crashes resulting in rage quits.

Ah, alright. I didn't look over SheepShaver that much.

I have Nanosaur 2 from the Mac App Store and I haven't played it yet.
