Juran said that he's considering a crowdfunding program to support further development of AMS and is looking for others willing to contribute to the project. I was unable to get the front end to execute at all on Debian 9 on Intel.īut there's hope that these hurdles can be cleared. (Juran is looking for someone with some expertise in Coco to help fix that.) And the Linux implementation of AMS does not yet support keyboard input. While AMS works on Mac OS X up to version 10.12-both on Intel and PowerPC versions of the operating system-the code for the graphics front end currently won't compile on MacOS Mojave. Unfortunately, there's still a lot of work to be done. A small graphical front-end displays video and accepts user input. A version of the project, downloadable from Github, includes a 'Welcome' screen application (a sort of Mac OS 'hello world'), Mac Tic-Tac-Toe, and an animation of NyanCat.Īdvanced Mac Substitute emulated greatness via /SMeI241yGdĪpplications are launched from the command line for now and are executed by the emulation software, which interprets the system and firmware calls. He showed me an early attempt at getting the game Load Runner to work with the emulator-it's not yet interactive.
I got a demo of AMS from Juran at Shmoocon in Washington, DC, this past weekend.
