RB's Notes: The .m3u file is used to make disc swapping easier when using Mednafen and cores based on it. To run the game, load that file instead of the individual .cue files (loading will take a bit longer). Make sure all relevant .bin/cue pairs are in the same directory as the .m3u or it will not work!

To swap discs when asked, press F6 to cycle between available disc images, then press F8 to load the selected one.

That would be the result of a bad burn. The FMVs were tested on a burned CD-R on my Saturn I've had since 1996. They all were in spec and worked properly. I'd recommend buying some higher quality professional grade CD-Rs. The cheap verbatims you can get at Best Buy or Wal-Mart wont cut it these days.

Yeah, I use those Verbatim CD-R discs that I bought from Amazon, and the game does work, it’s only stuttering during the FMVs

I also have some issues with my burned copy, like FMVs stuttering and, in-game, it didn't move the cursor for some reason

In the segaextreme post they talk about about the problem with Saroo and the game, and how fixing will likely interfere badly with the english patch.

The Saturn is, perhaps, one of biggest cases in the industry of posthumous recognition.

From what I know of Saturn in the West whoever was in charge of what games got released did the console really dirty, preventing a bunch of quality stuff from seeing the light of day over here.

 

[Zeb89]

OK

We ain't all rich as fuck like you Finnish people, you know

I'm not spending my (2/3) monthly income for a console

OK

 

[Helga]

real console is best one

[Gromoff]

I don't speak the language, but will the Portuguese translation by the same people also be uploaded to the repository?

 

[RageBurner]

Really glad I bought a Saturn recently, more and more keeps coming out that makes it so worth it

What best Saturn emulator?

I am using MacBook with RetroArch with Sega Saturn core Beetle.

Works flawless & perfectly.

 

[Ceemcneil]

No questions are dumb questions. Assuming you are using retroarch, you'd have to map the relevant keys somewhere.

lol a literal and simple google search is your friend smh

It's not my M.O to have every tiny beta change available (I think it's a waste of time), but people keep requesting those.

It would be interesting to see a breakdown of total downloads by version if that info is available.

 

[RageBurner]

after that Princess Crown ''7 gorillion beta versions'' circus it's refreshing to see a proper release of a Saturn fan translation

Also you should put NoahSteam as the author as he is the Project Lead. I'm only listed as that on the SegaXtreme post because I'm the team member that uploaded it there.

Sure, I'll amend the information.

 

[TrekkiesUnite118]

Thanks for the clarification, and most of all, the incredible labor of love you and the team put forth.

It should be noted that the video in the post isn't the translation patch. We did recreate the original commercials though if you'd like to link one of those:

I downloaded the image here and made a few tweaks to improve the colors. In case anyone is interested.
