  • MacDreamTool 4 – Changelog since v3:
    • The ‘Selfboot’ Tab has been removed. A new Menu ‘Selfboot” has been added. It has replaced the console menu. Selfbooting ‘Plain files’ can now only be done from that Menu.
    • Adding an MR image to a Plain Files folder is now done via the menu
    • Slimmed Code
    • Removed mkisofs & isofix free usage from console menu (sorry)
    • Size/Theme/MR info collected on boot will not get wrongly changed by the next button click
    • Removed unneeded path defining (caused slow-down)
    • Changed binary handling in Inducer
    • Adding a .sbi File can now be done via the File Menu, or by the shortcut Apple-F
    • Inducer Folders size gets read on booting
    • Theme addition checks in case Inducer was made into sbi2sb – to prevent errors
    • Boot read now checks if last MDT session was made into a selfbooting sbi
    • Boot read sets up comment list, to prevent miss-numbering
    • on clicked “Make iso’s” Removed check for added files, files added in last usage wouldnt count, and be unable to burn
    • drag& drop now accepts folders
    • on click file&folder,addDrop() – smart error knows when files are trying to overwrite folders or vice versa
    • Reads MM.dxl when launching
    • Removed sbi2SB Tab, Script. Built sbi-2-sb into Mac Inducer, will now selfboot automatically if one sbi added.
  • MacDreamTool 2.1.3 – This version removed the dummy file creation, due to some bugs that IM has yet to fix.
  • MacDreamTool 2.1 – This is another new update of IM Weasel’s fantastic MacDreamTool. This version includes two bug-fixes from the previous version, and allows optional dummy file creation.
  • MacDreamTool 1.2 – This is version 1.2 of I.M. Weasel’s “Mac Dream Tool”. Mac Dream Tool is a port of burnerO’s Selfboot Inducer. This version of Mac Dream Tool is based loosely off of Selfboot Inducer v3, but I.M. Weasel is currently working on a port of SBInducer v4.
  • DummyCreator 2 – This proggie will create a dummy file for you. This proggie, along with all of I.M. Weasel’s apps, is for use on the Macintosh (all of them also seem to be created for OS X).
  • MKISOFS (PreC) – This is a build of Mkisofs for use on the Mac OS X.
