vMac was an open source emulator for Mac OS onWindows, DOS, OS/2, NeXTSTEP, Linux-Unix, and other platforms. Although vMac has been abandoned,Mini vMac, an improved spinoff of vMac, is currently developed. vMac and Mini vMac emulate a Macintosh Plus and can run Apple Macintosh System versions 1.1 to 7.5.5. vMac and Mini vMac support central processing unit (CPU) emulation from Motorola 68000to 68040, display output, sound, floppy disk insert, HFV image files, and more. Some vMac ports include extra features such as CD-ROM support, basic serial port (SCC) support, Gemulator ROM board support, and various performance improvements. Although the website is still in operation, most vMac development slowed to a halt in 1999, and no official releases have been made since. Many of the developer e-mail addresses listed on the website are not working or current.
[edit]Overview
Mini vMac, vMac's spinoff, is still being maintained and developed by Paul C. Pratt. Currently Mini vMac supports Macintosh 128K, 512K, 512Ke, Plus, SEand Classic, with active development for Macintosh II,Macintosh Portable and PowerBook 100 support. Due to complaints about the rarity of the originalII,[citation needed] it also accepts Macintosh IIx andMacintosh SE/30ROM files. The precompiled versions available for download at Mini vMac'sSourceForge project emulates a Macintosh Plus with 4 MiB of RAM.
vMac and Mini vMac require a Macintosh Plus ROM file and Macintosh system software to work. Macintosh ROM files are owned by Apple and cannot be legally distributed. However, the Windows and Unix ports of vMac (not Mini vMac) support the Gemulator ROM board from Emulators Inc., which allows users to add genuine MacPlus ROM chips to their x86 machine via an ISA expansion slot. This board can also support ROM chips from other early Macintosh systems, but the publicly released versions of vMac only supported the Macintosh Plus. Macintosh system software is available from Apple's Support Downloads Website.
As mentioned, Mini vMac also requires a specific ROM image for the computer emulation desired. A software application for these 68000 Macs may be downloaded from the Mini vMac website for retrieval of a system's ROM image, along with a complete tutorial for locating an old Mac, retrieving the ROM and working with disk images.

It seems that I'm the only one who updates the vMac web site any more. Well,I just wanted to let everyone know about the new free Mac emulator project,Mace. Still in thedevelopment stage, but it will never require the MacOS or a Macintosh ROM!

We have just been informed that vMac's mascot, vDude, is part of the Linux Montage Project. Click here to see a slightly modifiedversion that makes vDude easier to find. Look at the bottom right cornerfor the blue circle around vDude.

Now that the SETI@Home web site is fixed (it was recently hacked by 'aliens'), I would like toinvite everyone to join teamvMac. SETI@Home is not at all related to vMac or Macintosh emulation, but it'san interesting project that a lot of the other open source people are participatingin.

Good news! Just as we suspected, that virus scare was a false alarm. There isa bug in Cheyenne Anti-Virus which makes it claim that DJGPP programs areinfected with the 'Cold3927' virus, when in fact they are not. So, the DOSport is clean and I have put it back online.

I have taken the binary distribution of the DOS port (version 0.1.9.5)temporarily offline because a user reported that it contained the virus'cold3927'. At this time it looks like a false alarm, but I will leaveit offline until we are completely sure of that. Both the DOS and Windowsports are free of known viruses according to Symantec Anti-Virus 5.0 usingthe latest virus definitions (dated 6/7/99), but it's Cheyenne Anti-Virusthat reportedly found this virus.

No, we're not dead. Over the next few days I'll be updating things,gathering information, and posting it here. Sorry about the long delays in updatingthe site, I was too busy moving around the country (still have to move again in a fewmonths) to do much of anything. But I have some free time now, so I figured I'ddo something other than sit on my butt :). Check back often!

Michael Samuel and myself have just implemented support for the GemulatorROM board in the Unix port of vMac. I have released it as version 0.1.9.3.You may download the source from the downloads section. There is no binarydistribution at this time, so you will have to compile the source yourself.
