VersaCAD MAC Support

There are 3 primary issues that users of VersaCAD Mac (prior to VersaCAD Mac 2001) run into:

Problem 1: The software does not run because the software is looking for the 68000 floating point hardware.
Solution 1: VersaCAD 4.0 comes with two versions of the software, VersaCAD and VersaCAD II. The VersaCAD II version will only run on Mac computers that have a 68000 floating point coprocessor. Remove the software and load the VersaCAD version (not II). This version will run on any Mac including PowerMacs.
Problem 2: I run VersaCAD and the program dies with an Error (usually Error 15).
Solution 2: VersaCAD needs more memory to run on these computers. Do a "Get Info" on the VersaCAD program and increase the amount of memory allocated to VersaCAD. If you have 32MB or more set the value to 8MB. Lower values will work but it is best to start with the higher number to make sure this was the problem.
Problem 3: I run VersaCAD and the colors are all black or at least very dark.
Solution 3: Most likely you have the colors on the Mac set for thousands or higher. Lower the number of colors to 256. This setting is set in Control Panel/Monitors.
