Let me know if you need any help getting it working. It's a bit tricky, but we managed to get it running Glider at VCF West.

Thanks

Now i can run this, from the doc file you need to create "mac floppys" to actual floppys from the image ?.
Or you can use a floppy or hd image.

You must create actual floppies using the included utilities.

Hi, I'm trying to launch the Mac emulator on my X68000 XVI compact. I followed the instruction kindly given by Retrobits under his YouTube video:

- Extract the software: Iha x macos.Izh
- Put a blank 1.2MB floppy in the second drive and run the f512 command to format it. Hit 'y' to accept
- Write an 800k Mac image to the disk: conv finder.mac
- Add the ROM to the startup d file: db rom, 1e0000 < a
- Configure how much RAM you have, e.g. 8MB: cst 8m
- Run start2.bat to launch the emulator.

As I have a compact, I'm using a 3.25 floppy, but I think that I don't go so far that the emulator try to boot the disk. When I launch start2.bat, I have only a black screen.

Can you help me to make it run?
Thanks :-)

I'm not sure which video you're talking about, but a few things to check:
First, which set are you using, I used "MAC_SET".
Do you have the correct boot ROM? It needs to be a Japanese Macintosh Plus ROM. Mine has SHA-1 73bf2eb215646e108daa0cdd874e6c843c8ce421.
Not sure which startup file you're editing, I didn't have to do that.
