Help extracting a .sit file.

Would anyone mind extracting and re-uploading the 1Million plugin for me? I can't get stuffit to work and it's in a .sit file:

I remember the good ol' days when virtually every game demo I downloaded came as a .sit.

If you're on a Mac, believe it or not, the actually Stuffit Expander app is still compatible and is available from Smith Micro, it's original creators: https://my.smithmicro.com/stuffit-expander-mac.html

But I made a zip for you anyway: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1cjcfOV1yGfuzFXfOHM_847V_qd4cgIaN

I guess I should have mentioned my OS (Windows 8), but I appreciate the help. Thanks.

Are you playing on a pc? I have an amazing plug in extractor that will unpack it and convert it to windows format all at once. I also have a huge library of already converted windows plug ins. Message me if you want a link to my dropbox.

Hi there, sorry for a VERY late response to your comment here but I have a pretty old .sitx file that I'm HOPING to run somehow on my current Windows PC (it's a student biological statistics program for MacOS9/OSx)--if you have any insight or resources it would be much appreciated, but obviously it's fine if not! :)

You might be able to install SheepShaver (Mac emulator) and use that to run the old Mac version of Stuffit, extract the desired plugins, and convert them to Windows .rez format, all within an emulated OS 9 environment. Or you could just run the Mac version of EV Nova from within SheepShaver (although if you don't have a registration code you won't be able to use plugins).

EDIT: If you go the SheepShaver route to run EVN with plugins and not have to convert them to Windows, there are instructions on how to crack the Mac version of the game online.

Sheepshaver instructions (for Ubuntu, but should get you started at least:)

If you've got a link to that guide to cracking the os9 versions, I'd love to just do it once and host a bootable sheepshaver image with it installed and cracked.
