IIRC, all I had to do was copy them from the shared "UNIX" drive in Sheepshaver to a local Sheepshaver drive before attempting to unstuff, run, or use any type of file.
When I began using Sheepshaver, I had lots of trouble with apps appearing as plain document files. One last point may be worth mentioning, although it may not apply to your situation.
#Setup sheepshaver update
I´ll update the OP somewhat to reflect this. I´m farily certain that they all came with Stuffit Expander.
#Setup sheepshaver mac os
I´m sure I´ll find a Mac OS 8 or 8.5 or 9 CD at my parents, plus they I believe lots of old MacFormat CDs in a dresser in their loft. Unfortunately as per Jables' post and my experiences using BetterZip, it seems clear now that I won´t be able to get neither an "externally un-binhexed" game installer, nor any version of Stuffit Expander sitting in a plain folder, if I´ll have to copy it from my PC, into the emulated Mac intact.īut no worries. Fortunately I believe I have access to old CDs from which I´ll finally be able to get a working version of Stuffit Expander into the emuator. I have tried to extract the installer from the archive with the Windows version of Stuffit Expander, but when I bring the file into the emulated Mac, the system thinks it is only a document, and not an application.ĮDIT: While I have now several old versions of Stuffit Expander sitting on my PC, and also have access to tools for unextracting game installer archives outside of the Mac environment, it seems clear that these unarchived files won´t survive being copyied into the emulated Mac.įiles need to be "binhexed" to survive the PC-Mac transfer, but without a working version of the expander already present in the Mac, I´m screwed. With a link to an installer for Stuffit Expander 7.0, in a. bin archives.ĭoes anyone have an old version of Stuffit Expander lying around? I believe any version prior to version 8 would be fine. I´ve set up Sheepsaver on my PC in order to run som classic Mac games from my youth, but I have problems installing games contained in.
