I just bought a new iMac DV SE last year and I wanted to play my old MacThemePark on it. The game came out when the Quadra was fast. It runs so fast I can't even play it. Any way I can slow it down?

the way I play it is by downloading a Sega Genesis ROM of themepark and playing it in a Genesis emulator (such as Generator or Dgen)

mattsliva has a problem I've been having with the old cult favorite WorldBuilder. I've always wanted to tinker around with it, but the map editor scrolls way to fast on a mouseclick, I've been trying to pathetically and without gain to gently tap the mouse to keep it from skipping over something I'm trying to edit. Not sure there's much you can do. Some PowerBooks have a "Reduce Processor Speed" option, but I believe it's only with the old models.
