Like a complete idiot I accidentally deleted Mednafen while trying to clean up my HDD and had long since forgotten how I set everything up in the config file. I then remembered that I learn how to do all of the setup by watching your videos. I found this video again being in the top 3 for Saturn Mednafen tutorial. Got everything back up and running in no time! Thanks again Austin!

Thanks, amigo! I'd poked at Mednafen years ago but didn't have any luck and already had emulators that ran my Saturn games so I didn't persevere. I stayed with you on this video and got it booting a bunch of my own rips tonight. I appreciate the tips as far as dragging cue sheets onto Mednafen's exe and also the config file tweaks and controller setup.

For anyone asking about making the game actually Fullscreen, you need to use Notepad++ and go back into the config file. Do a search for ss.stretch. By default, I believe it says aspect_mult2. Just delete that and type full. So it should look like "ss.stretch full" (minus the quotation marks) then click save. Alt+Enter will now put it in window mode and fullscreen the game, ignoring aspect ratio.
@devilmikey005 жыл бұрын
This Tutorial is still valid as of February 2019. Nothing has changed in terms of basic set up. I highly suggest after doing this basic set up to go to Mednafens website and click Documentation then go to the Sega Saturn section. Give it a good read and set everything up as you would like. Try some Filters, go fullscreen etc.

Thank you soooo much, Austin! I had never heard of this emulator. I'm very impressed at how well it emulates the Saturn with such amazing performance! (getting a steady 60 fps even on my 3-year old lower to mid-range gaming pc). It's been almost 20 years since I've enjoyed Shinobi Legions, Die Hard Arcade, and even my guilty pleasure, Time Gal! I'm having a blast!!!! *Just a note for anyone that may need -- If anyone is having trouble getting a full picture in full screen mode, search this in the config file "ss.stretch aspect mult2" and change it to "ss.stretch aspect". There are many helpful things in the documentation page, as Austin already mentioned. Laterz!!

Great video, been trying to use this emulator for a while. A tip for everybody: Your cue files may show a path like this: "C:\SATURN roms\Darius Gaiden (U)(Saturn).BIN" mednafen won't load games that contain colons or backlashes, so you have to rename the cue files (notepad ++) to remove this part "C:\SATURN roms\". Don't forget to rename the bin file if you change the name of cue file itself. The saturn was such an underrated system it almost makes me cry, being able to play it again is so cool, don't miss the excellent games that were released in Japan only, some of them are really original and fun.

Thank you so much for this video. Emulation in Yabause and SSF were never quite right. However, Mednafen knocks it out of the park. I've regretted selling off my original Saturn and games like Dragon Force and Iron Storm years ago. Until now, emulators just never brought back the same feeling that Mednafen does. Using a Street Fighter IV Xbox 360 gamepad is the closest thing I've used to an original Saturn controller too. It's like I'm nineteen years old again and playing Saturn in my old apartment (damn, now I feel old).

Wow this stand alone emulator is AMAZING! I've been using the Mednafen core inside of Retro Arch which is way more demanding on my CPU than the stand alone. I don't have to run SSF in windowed mode anymore to get intensive games to run at full speed with little input lag. It doesn't have Retro Arch's UI, but all I care about is getting the game running at full speed.

Awesome video. Much appreciated. I used SSF a year or two back and was actually pretty surprised how well it worked on my ancient PC. One or two mild hiccups on one of the Virtua Fighter games, but considering that when I looked a couple of years before, the verdict was that there were no decent Saturn Emulators (or maybe I was just looking in the wrong places). To hear that Mednafen is even better is great news. I also tried Mednafen in Retroarch for PS1 a while back (before they added Saturn emulation) and it worked great, although I had a problem with the screen size. This was apparently due to the fact that the PS1 would change resolutions, so when the game switched to a lower resolution, it wasn't detected and scaled to fullscreen by the emulator. Not sure if they ever solved that issue. If anyone ever manages to make an N64 emulator that isn't a pain in the ass and has close to 100% game compatibility I'll hunt them down and plant a big sloppy kiss on them. I abandoned N64 emulators because it was such a headache using specific configurations/emulators and hunting down plugins/trying to find out which plugin and which version to use for specific games. I'd love to see an original XBOX emulator one day too. Basically, if one day we have working emulators up to PS2 (in my case, preferably with Driving Force Pro FFB emulation as I like racing games) and original XBOX, I'll be happy because PS3/XB360 is when the woes of NTSC/PAL went away (I won't go into that now because it will lead to a huge rant).

@napalmhardcore7 жыл бұрын
I can't remember every game I was trying to run at the time, but I remember Golden Eye had issues (graphics glitches etc) and when I tried using plugins it would fix one issue and introduce another or cause the emulator to crash. I remember having more than one build of P64 on my machine because some games ran OK in one version but not the other. For example, WWE No Mercy played fine in an older build but the newer build caused it to stutter and play in slow-mo. I remember Doom 64 displayed really dark for some reason. I didn't get around to testing too many games due to the amount of issues I encountered in the handful of games I did try. I remember reading a list of known issues and there were other games I wanted to play (various Mario games and other classics) that had known problems so I ended up calling it a day.

Haven't looked into it yet, probably some configuration issue. Or perhaps it's just not fully compatible yet. Will check it out later. Thanks again, Austin.

Retroarch is impressive and works great for NES emulation, basically nothing is required, but for more complex systems, particularly those with more than two buttons, it's not user-friendly at all and can become extremely frustrating. This was a little bit of work setting up, but your guide was super helpful and I can't thank you enough. Looking forward to playing some games now.

Thanks for this Austin, it doesn't run Shining Force 3 sadly (sound is pretty garbled) so I'm still stuck with SSF but it's still promising.

Yeah mate, sorry about that. keep an eye on it though, seem to have new builds almost weekly :)
@MetaSieg8 жыл бұрын
That's the plan, been watching their site like a hawk. No need to apologize though it's not your fault. SF is pretty obnoxious to emulate from what I understand. The fact that it runs the game at all so early in development is really promising.

Thanks, Austin! However, I tried to run Guardian Heroes on this, but it won't run an MDF/MDS. Any idea how to work this out?

It would be good to revisit this with the libretro port.

Fantastic Austin. Been wanting the Saturn for ages but couldnt get any of the previous emulators to work properly. Just a question about full screen though if i may please. When i switch to full screen, the display is in postage stamp sized mode (perhaps exaggerating a little. lol). Ive been in the .cfg and tried to reconfigure but havent had a success. Any ideas or pointers? ;-)

look a the scaler and video settings. it will x2, x3 etc etc to the nearest your screen supports. More notes in the documentation page linked

Thank you. Finally got full (full) screen. Damn, theres a lot of fiddling about but i got there in the end. Will be playing some Clockwork Knight, Loaded, Nights, Bug and Gex this evening. ;-)

Using mednafen with a frontend how do I boot to the Sega Saturn bios.?
@AdversaryOne5 жыл бұрын
What do you do if the cue file boots to the Saturn dashboard or "red book audio" style presentation on screen as of you put the disc in an audio player?

Hi Austin. Thanks as ever. The Saturn was the last missing piece of my setup. As I'm using Windows 10 SSF has been a real pain to get working (in fact, I never could get it set up). This was a doddle. Then... With no rhyme and reason, games have started running at x2 speed. No sound, nothing. Has this happend to you? If so, how did you fix it? I've trawled through Google, but I can't seem to find a solution. Cheers.

Try and make sure it's a .cue and .bin file Isozone is the best choice for finding the right files as anywhere else can be in mdf

I can finally run PDS! Two questions, where do the saves go? WHat about multiple disc games? One extra one, do I have to configure the controls every time I turn on the console?
