Regardless, for a disc called “Classical” Cats, I knew that getting music working would be important. I’d optimistically hoped that Classical Cats might be as easy, but it turned out to present some extra technical complexity. The one thing that didn’t work was the music.Ĭlassical Cats uses CD audio for its music, and I’d already written code to support this in early releases of Alice: An Interactive Museum for Mac.

At this point in ScummVM’s development, I’m often more surprised if a disc made in Director 3 or 4 fails to boot right away. Like a lot of early Director discs, Classical Cats mostly just worked on the first try. I first found out about Classical Cats when fellow ScummVM developer einstein95 pointed me at it because its music wasn’t working. I wrote about the disc’s contents in more detail at my CD-ROM blog, but needless to say I was charmed-I wanted to share this with more people. That happened when I ran into Classical Cats, a digital art gallery focused on the work of Japanese artist and classical musician Mitsuhiro Amada. (Unlike later Mac OS versions, /usr/local/bin isn't in the default PATH.) If you use bash as your shell, add this line to your ~/.Every now and then, when working on ScummVM’s Director engine, I run across a disc that charms me so much I just have to get it working right away. You'll also want to make sure that /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin are in your PATH.

Type ruby followed by a space into your terminal prompt, then drag and drop the install file onto the same terminal window, and press return. Transfer it to your Tiger or Leopard machine along with Xcode. On the computer you're reading this on, control or right click this link and save it (the option will be something like 'Save Link As' or 'Download Linked File' depending on your browser) to disk:

Both downloads will require an Apple Developer account. For Leopard, Xcode 3.1.4, available from Apple here. For Tiger that's Xcode 2.5, available from Apple here. You will first need the newest version of Xcode for your operating system installed. A little experimental fork of Homebrew that adds support for PowerPC Macs, and Macs running Tiger (or Leopard).
