install pulsar 4 dsp on OS9... problems!

Post by claudio_61 »

Hi, I would like to install my pulsar on my G4 quicksilver Powermac with OS 9.2.2 (no osx). I have download the 4.5 vers from sonic core site. I haven't original CD where there is the 3.1 version. I have loaded at hand the bin files and copyied the dll files in extension folder. Finally the installer has run and have copyied the files in a folder scope.
The system and other audio programs don't recognize the card (the installer had recognized it when installing and had loaded the keys). When I lunch Scope Platform I receive this message: "Cannot start scope platform. Could not gain access to Creamware hardware!".
Someone could explain how to install the software, or tell me which file copy in which system folder?
Many thanks

you may have read the thread about Richard's problems...
the 4.x install doesn't work on OS9 (as you experienced), but there's a read-me doc about 2 library files (one is named something like crossplatform-dunnowhat) in the 4.x that seems to be identical to it's 3.1 predecessor regarding Mac specific stuff - not sure if it's enough, tho.
I just installed 3.1 but didn't check what it put into which folder.

cheers, Tom

Hi Tom,
Many thanks. I've search the files but no response to my problem. I haven't the original CD so I cannot use the 3.1c installer. Someone can help me to find a 3.1 Scope installer? Many thanks
