Crystal Cave

*How to play the game* by Canalboy

I have finally managed to start this one properly as an offline download option and after playing
around with the Basilisk II settings, I can confirm that the optimum configuration (to my jaundiced
eye anyway) are as follows; open the BasiliskIIGui.exe file (installed with Basilisk or
automatically generated if missing) and change the Graphics/Sound tab to Window, 60Hz, Width 640
Height 480. On the Memory/Misc tab choose RAM Size 64MB, Mac Model ID Quadra 900, CPU Type 68030 and
install the PERFORMA rom file which can be downloaded from several sites. Untick Enable JIT
Compiler.

Then open the Basilisk_prefs file and amend the mag_rate setting to 2 (this will enlarge the active
application window in the MAC OS 8.1 environment.) Attach the Mac OS 8.1 system and the Macintosh
HD_250GB drive in HFV explorer. Opening Basilisk II should now present you with a Crystal Cave
application window where you can double click the red game icon.

If anyone needs the configured hard drive I can send a copy.
