MAC POSSIBILITY UPDATE --

Okay, so I lugged my Quadra 950 out of the garage along with the monitor, keyboard, mouse, and network hookup, and took it all upstairs to my room and set it up in the corner.  I believe from what I've read the Quadra 950 was actually THE best in 68K's... still 68K, but the last one before they went PPC I think.  The 40MB RAM and a 1GB HDD it has should be sufficient if this is possible at all.

I went on a wild search for any [free] programming resources available to me.  I finally found MPW (Mac Programmers Workshop), THE official Apple compiler for those developing for MacOS 9 and below.  It produces both 68K and PPC binaries, even if only compiling on the 68K.  (It produces either/or, or a "Fat Binary", which supposedly makes it capable of executing on both 68K's as well as PPC-modern machines!)

Then I also located a graphics/sound library called "SpriteWorld", which hopefully will assist on that end of it.

With any luck, I might actually pull it off...

I just don't know yet, because the building of the graphics lib on that junker took the better part of the early hours of the morning; I had to go to sleep before it was done, right when the clock hit 5AM... XP

You the man! Gotta give you props for trying to pull it off on a 68K machine! Were any of those support forums I sent you helpful? I haven't really tried any of them myself. Just sort of bookmarked them and forgot about them. I think here are some Mac programmer forums/sites out there that I could track down. Apple also has a programmer listserv/forum by it's a rather pricey paid subscription. ^^;

You wouldn't happen to know if your Mac will run 68K software?  I've read it's possible at least through MacOS 9, it just requires (here's the word again) emulation (FYI that the system knows how to do).

In theory, it should work. Probably just have to boot up in OS 9. I can work out the emulation if I need it.

The brain works, doesn't mean "little Makoto" knows where to go ;p

Sexuality is like half your humanity.  And 17 is one of those fun awkward years alright...


Looks like we're talking about two entirely different things here. ^^;;;;;;

Good job Rob! I'll try to give it a shot on one of the PCs here at my work.

A PPC emulator would be great. There have been a few scattered Mac emulators over the years. But none recently. And, since Apple won't release their source code it makes it rather difficult.

But there's always Virtual PC! Too bad it's so expensive. O_O;

Hmmm.... well I wouldn't say he's so unsure of himself. Maybe a bit "off" because he's suddenly lumped into another world. "Fish out of water" scenario (Fujisawa is too hung over to be affected, it would appear). If anything, he certainly gets on the ball fast. By the second episode (if I'm remembering right) he's already working out a plan to get back to earth.

"Gomen Nasai" is "I'm sorry, I apologize."

It's a very good phrase to know, even if you don't plan on studying Japanese...

And it's a phrase you simply can't help but hearing in any japanese song, anime or movie. Very common! That's why I'm saying that, with a moderate amount of sub anime watching, you can't help but pick up some Japanese! If anything, it makes it easier to watch subtitled anime.

 But-- Makoto's English VA doesn't work for me.  Either he was miscast, or he wasn't directed properly, or he misplayed the part, but he somehow makes Makoto sound much more uncertain of himself, even stupid in places, than the Japanese VA, to my ears.

I noticed that also. Ironically, he also did Yakumo in Streamline's dub of 3x3 Eyes. ^^;
