Homebrew Discussion Yaba Sanshiro - Optimised Sega Saturn emulator coming soon

[lordelan]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!!!
@m4xw you are the Kami of all Kamis!


Finally!

 

[lordelan]

@m4xw
What's the recommended games format btw?

1. CUE + BIN(s)
2. ZIP containing CUE + BIN(s)
3. ISO
4. something else

At the moment, only cue/bin seems to work.

Eventually, CHD will be the way to go once support is working.

I thought yaba sanshiro supported chd, I tried it on pc and it works fine.

 

[sj33]

It does, but it’s broke on the Switch atm.

I couldn't get it to work with bin/cue but that might be the format. I'm using a single bin with a single cue, maybe they need separate audio tracks.

Try to merge the BIN files with CDMage

So nice can't wait to try a public build.

Cant wait to play Athlete Kings again Thanks as always to all involved.

hoping that sx os will be compatible.


otherwise it's really anything

 

[sj33]

There’s no point asking for it to be SX compatible, only TX can do that. SX isn’t arbitrarily being blocked.

Does this emulator load just .bin files or does it need a proper .cue file to load? I have a few ISOs that I can't find in .bin/.cue how would I convert them to .bin/.cue?

I guess CDMage may work, if doesn't try daemon tools and redump em

Will it load .bins or do I need a working .cue file?

With PowerISO I was able to convert ISO to bin but I have this one game (Astal) that's in .mdf can't figure out how to convert it yet.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

CDMage seems to support about every file type except .mds/.mdf.

A redump's format cue is needed for bin files.

 

[EmulateLife]

This has been kind of quiet. I'm trying to be patient, having trouble.

 

[NANASHI89]

Did they say it's coming to Switch, or is this wishful thinking?

Yes it's coming to Switch that is why this thread exists. It's already on PC and Android.

 

[EmulateLife]

Whle waiting on Yaba Sanshiro I decided to try Yabause. I was pleasantly surprised it's not completely useless. If you overclock Retroarch some games play full speed. I beat the first stage of Shinobi Legions, and Panzer Dragoon Saga and Panzer Dragoon II Zwei seemed to play fine although I didn't play them a whole lot, Enemy Zero played fine. Shining Force III Episodes 2 and 3 worked but Episode 1 would not, and rpgs like Albert Odyssey and Dragon Force seemed to play fine, and also Legend of Oasis, Golden Axe The Duel and Dark Legends all seemed at or near full speed to me.

However save states seem to be completely broken I get a crash every time I tried one on Retroarch 1.7.9.

Looking forward to play Saturn on Switch
