Q: Jump Raven/Lunicus in Classic Environment
Hi,
In the past i've tried to play two old games by the names of Jump Raven and Lunicus on my eMac with Classic installed. Most of my old games ask to be played in 256 colors and that isn't a problem but, with Jump Raven and Lunicus, I change the monitor to 256 colors and when I click on either game a message pops up that says:
Fatal error: can’t switch to 256 colors.
Am I doing something wrong? Help would be appreciated because I would like to play these two old games again.
eMac, Mac OS X (10.4.11)

Unfortunately some games require software graphics emulation or hardware graphics emulation which may not work in the Classic environment, and only work while booted into Mac OS 9. If your eMac is too new for booting into Mac OS 9, you may be out of luck. To see which eMac can run booted mode, see this tip:
