  1. Well if it's already in the database then I don't see any reason to remove it.
  2. Just my thoughts on it and keep in mind I really don't care one way or the other since I do not use ScummVM at all and only use DOSbox a very small amount. I say keep it. It is an emulator platform that some people know and use for what ever reason they have. Many of us have specific emulation and platform choices just because we want to use those emulators and platforms. Is it really that much of a burden to have a platform section for ScummVM ?
  3. Yeah officially it doesn't support PAL but one night in chat with Zombeaver he mentioned the SRP and we messed with it with mixed results. Examples being Keio Flying Squadron worked perfectly, while Discworld loads but at the screen where it says to "Press Start" the game doesn't recoginise that the button is being pressed so you can't go beyond that. Discworld II loads and plays but everything is pink.
  4. You can "fix" pal games with the Saturn Region Patcher tool but the results of that are 50/50, some games work fine with it others sort of work with weird side effects.
  5. Yup, Yabause wasn't worth using before and it's even less worth now. I guess before if you only wanted a couple of games that actually worked perfectly fine in Yabause it was ok but over all it was useless.
  6. Come on now, Yabause does have one good thing going for it. You don't have to mount a disk image to play games with it
  7. You can use the same bios but they will need to be renamed. Sega Saturn BIOS v1.01 (JAP).bin rename to sega_101.bin Sega Saturn BIOS v1.00 (US).bin rename to mpr-17933.bin And like Zombeaver said this blows the doors off Yabause. For now though the RA core does not support the 3D analog controller but that should be in very soon. A Retroarch dev said he was rigging that in this week.
  8. Galactic Attack demo using the Easymode-Halation shader.
  9. Yes, do you have the bios put into your Retroarch/system folder ?
  10. So there's a time and date setting in the game aside from the Saturn internal clock and they are different from each other ? I was never into the Nights games so my knowledge on them is extremely limited, even less knowledgeable on the Christmas one.
  11. I honestly have no idea but if you can tell me what sort of things to look for I can test it out and see.
  12. At least it's only the first time you load a game and not every time after.
  13. I'm not bothering with the time setting, it won't matter at all. Apparently in a newer release coming soon they are turning that off so you won't have to deal with it.
  14. Yabause was "ok". The stand alone version was serviceable but because of no opengl support in the RA core it was brutally slow. The one thing that always stuck in my craw with Yabause was in the game Darius Gaiden was the missing sound effects. SSF while it was / is a pain in the ass with the mounting of disk images is a good emulator. SSFs development was just extremely slow almost to glacial pace at this point in time and the Yabause developer switched his focus to the mobile market so the stand alone development stalled. Oh well, we finally got a real Saturn emu and I couldn't be any more happy. What a crazy week this has been for a time when gaming is supposed to be dead in the middle of summer. We get a great new Saturn emulator, we get Enderal the ultimate Skyrim total conversion mod and No Mans Sky which unfortunately for me has been pushed aside for the other two, lol.
  15. Here's a video I found showing a graphics comparison between Ultra and Very Low with this mod. As you will notice even Very Low looks freakin amazing. Also here's a link to their Nexusmods page with all sorts of information about the mod (total conversion). http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/77868/?tab=1&navtag=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusmods.com%2Fskyrim%2Fajax%2Fmoddescription%2F%3Fid%3D77868%26preview%3D&pUp=1
  16. I have not found any translation mistakes that I could see. I did see one word in the voice over that wasn't the same word used in the subtitle (so extremely minor and nit picky) but other than that the game is just blowing my mind. I really didn't want to stop and go to bed. They also fixed the dreaded shadow problems with Skyrim so there is no need for an ENB yet that I can tell. I don't know what magic they pulled out of their ass for this but it's beautiful. Maybe they just pulled some .ini magic. I noticed at the beginning the shadow edges were kinda rough in places but right now where I am in the game they are amazing looking. When you install the game it makes a backup of your Skyrim install so you should be ok just installing and not worrying about your skyrim but I did fresh install since I have Skyrim off my system for a while. On a side note when you do install from fresh it installs SkyUI and SKSE with it along with extremely customized Skyrim.ini and SkyrimPrefs.ini files. You load the game using the SKSE_Loader.exe of course like any reasonably modded Skyrim, but make sure you set the skse_launcher to run as administrator or you will get a message saying the mem fix isn't enabled.
  17. I haven't put much time into it yet but so far I will stick to what I have said before. It's a niche market type of game. If you want a story and clear cut objectives holding your hand and dragging you point to point then this is not the game to get. It really is an open world sandbox game of survival exploration and just enjoying the worlds and atmosphere. If you aren't sure about it then I would suggest you wait for a sale but if you know you would really like the style of game it is then I can say it is really good and worth the money but I would wait for a couple of patches. Some people are reporting severe performance issues and crashes depending on system configuration. It runs fine for me but I did have to turn G-Sync off in one of the games config files.
  18. Well unless these guys really pulled some magic out of their ass I can't imagine this using more than 4 gigs of ram. The original Skyrim was limited to 3.5 or something close to that if I remember correctly but yeah your CPU and GPU are going to be bottlenecks but it seems like there's a lot of graphics options to scale it to your systems needs. This game is really mind blowing so far, it really is AAA game title worthy. The art, story and game design is so top notch and polished. 4am and I don't want to go to bed and stop playing. lol.
  19. What sort of system specs are you running ?
  20. I run an AMD 8350 @ 4GHz, 16 gigs ram and a GTX 970 and at the starting are getting a solid 50-60 fps and higher. I run v-sync off.
  21. OH MY GOD!!!!! This is a must have for anyone who has Skyrim and if you don't get it so you can play this. The graphics are absolutely stunning, textures, models and lighting all blow away anything in Skyrim. It makes Fallout 4 look like a pile of steaming shit.
