Re: Saturn or emulation?
Saturn emulation requires more powerful CPU than Dreamcast emulation. PSX emulation is in entirely different league. If Saturn games are playable on your computer, and yet you have problems with ePSXe, you're doing it all wrong.

Ive been using daemon tools its pretty good not let me down so far.Drum wrote:Am I stupid or is there no simple way to run Saturn roms off the HD (ie. no setting up a ghost drive)? I can run my originals just fine, but I dled a big torrent a while back so I can play Battle Monsters (!) but ran into some troubles with the dled ISOs.

Re: Saturn or emulation?
yeah, which is easy because its fiddly to set up, and you need to use the right combination of plug ins for your machine.. If Saturn games are playable on your computer, and yet you have problems with ePSXe, you're doing it all wrong.

Re: Saturn or emulation?
I'm still sadI sold my grey JP Saturn for a lousy 40 bucks when I needed some fast cash. I still have my pretty white one I got from GaijinPunch a while back. So pretty...speedlolita wrote:Owning a Saturn is pretty satisfying - I have three but my JP one is my favourite - obviously.

Yeah, mine is a model 2 also.
Need to sort out my RGB cable for when I'm running it on it's own power board instead of the one from my model 2 PAL console.
Saturn RGB on a CRT is fantastic.

bump!
So, I have an ok PC (Pentium (R) D CPU 3.40 Ghz 2.00 gigs of ram)
But my Saturn emu (SSF) is verrrry choppy. Any general tips/ideas?

Get a new PC. Nothing short of a miracle from God will make your machine run SSF smoothly. I have Core 2 Quad and 4 gigs memory. Runs like a charm

Just run PSX then. No plugins to set up, works reasonably well on most machines.
Also, @Drum: yuup. A Pentium D totally isn't going to work too well for Saturn emulation. Even with a clockspeed like that.
Come check out my website, I guess. Random stuff I've worked on over the last two decades.
Re: Saturn or emulation?
Damnit. Oh well, next upgrade I suppose. If I start saving now by the time I've got enough I'll be able to buy a machine that can emulate Xbox 1080 games lag-free.
