    9/30/21 - DGEN - Sega Genesis/MegaDrive Emulator With Pre-configured Xbox 360 Controller Support For Intel Mac OS X 10.4.x

    I ported this Sega genesis emulator to Mac OS X 10.3.9+ PowerPC last year. The problem with DGEN is there are no assembly optimizations available for Mac OS X, PowerPC OR Intel. This means the emulation cores are all in C and not as fast as the assembly codes that can run on Linux. So the...

    Weird YouTube Changes, State of Age-Gated Videos, And PPCMC7 Becoming The Only YouTube Live Stream Method On PowerPC Macs?

    PPCMC 7 is now 1.5 years old, and has seen 25 updates since version 7.0. Recently it has come to my attention that something weird is going on with using VLC and QuickTime to watch YouTube livestreams. Apparently Google changed something, I think it’s to do with the codec/format somehow...

    6-16-2021 - The Latest IOQuake3 Had Been Ported To Mac OS X 10.3.9/10.4.x/10.5.x/10.6.x PowerPC

    IOQuake 3 is an open source Quake III game engine. Awhile ago, I ported the latest version to OpenBSD and got it added to the official OpenBSD ports tree. Now with the power of Panther SDL2 I have restored Mac OS X 10.3.9/10.4.x compatibility to the latest version of IOQuake3. Previously, Mac OS...

    Playing with Panther in 2020

    I recently used my 15 inch PowerBook G4 (2005) running Leopard to watch 'A Christmas Story'. After putting it away, I decided to pull out my 2003, 15 inch PowerBook G4 running 10.3.8 to just poke around and enjoy a bit of nostalgia. Panther actually has aged quite well, but technically, its not...

    Which version of OS X for a decked out 300mhz G3 Clamshell? (10.2, 10.3, 10.4)

    Hi, new to the forums here so my apologies of this is something that's already been discussed at length. I'm getting my hands on an iBook G3 Clamshell, the original 300mhz model specifically.

    Does YouTube Still Work in Panther? (Classilla + QuickTime)

    I don't run Panther. I watched a video demonstrating an iMac G3 going to m.youtube.com using Classilla on Mac OS X 10.3.9 and clicking any video automatically launched a QuickTime player window without the need for Quicktime enabler. This video was uploaded in August 2018, does it still work...

    My main mac has finally failed me It was an MBP 8,1 : The HDD was corrupted somehow, and now I cant use it. It's destined for the closet, at least until my parents decide whether or not I'm allowed to Mod the inside. That leaves me with my PMacG5. It is now going to become my daily driver from...

    Signing Into iChat in OSX Panther

    Ive recently inherited a PowerMac G5 dual 1.8 I have tried to sign into iChat on it, but it seems to only take @mac.com email addresses Is there a way around this to use my @icloud.com address with iChat? or is my MBP 8,1 the messages machine? :)

    This Forum on Classilla

    I saw in another thread that this forum could be used with Classilla. Tried on my Clamshell (with Panther) and got an error about the encryption. I'm going directly to forums.macrumors.com as @bunnspecial said in that other thread. Any ideas? Thanks, Henry

    Anyone Using Panther?

    So you may have read my thread about a web browser I'm working on that's specifically for G3 systems on OS X Tiger. At first, it will be Tiger only.
