DavidJJ Posted September 26, 2000 Share Posted September 26, 2000 Just my $0.02. CM demo worked fine on both my G4 and iMac running 9.0.4 prior to the arrival of the OS X beta. Since partitioning my drive, re-installing everything and putting OS X on the second partition then downloading a new demo of CM, boom, no luck. The CM demo tries to start up, pops to black for a resolution change, then falls right back to OS 9. I am not trying to start this in X Classic, just plain old 9. At least no hangs or nasty bombs. Gotta be an extension that X put into the 9 system disk/folder. I can volunteer to investigate if need be. David 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJJ Posted September 26, 2000 Author Share Posted September 26, 2000 Here's what was loaded in the system 9.0.4 folder by OS X public beta. Anyone have any ideas which of these folks is at fault? My guess would be the "Classic RAVE" extension. Classic Compatibility Environment 1.0f3 Apple Menu Options 72,901 bytes 1.1.8b2 APPC CDJR AppleShare 646,479 bytes 3.8.7b2c1 RDEV afpt Classic RAVE 52,581 bytes 1.2 shlb bbox Classic Support UI 722,504 bytes 1.2 bbox csui File Sharing Extension 201,902 bytes 7.6.7b2 INIT hhgg Open Transport 993,109 bytes 2.7.1 otsl otan OpenGLLibrary 193,253 bytes 1.2b2c4 shlb opgl ProxyApp 2,724 bytes 1.0 APPL bbox Software Update Engine 152,217 bytes 1.1.3 APPL soup Software Update Scheduler 51,313 bytes 1.1.3 appe swup 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted September 26, 2000 Share Posted September 26, 2000 I would disable the following extensions (if you haven't tried it yourself already): Classic Compatiblity Environment OpenGL Library Classic RAVE and two others to consider: Proxy App Classic Support UI You'll need to find another QuickDraw RAVE extension though to replace the "Classic RAVE" (assuming that it is the only RAVE-related extension in your System Folder). I'm not sure if you'll need TomeViewer to extract it from your OS 9.0.x CD. As you've guessed, it is most likely the "Classic RAVE" extension that is causing the problem with CM. Apple has probably put in a bunch more "hooks" or other changes into this extension which may be interfering with CM.

elementalwarre Posted September 26, 2000 Share Posted September 26, 2000 disabling Classic RAVE lets CM start with mac os 9. i made it to 1st turn orders phase in chance encounter, presumably it works after that mac os x public beta will insist on putting the Classic RAVE file in again. so, short of hacking classic's startup check, CM's not happening under mac os x pb 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karch Posted September 27, 2000 Share Posted September 27, 2000 "disabling Classic RAVE lets CM start with mac os 9. i made it to 1st turn orders phase in chance encounter, presumably it works after that" Disabling CLASSIC RAVE works for me on my iMac DV when running OS9. Just played a full game today. Can't get it to run in X yet though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
