Will we now finally get out of the SSF closed source dark days and the underwhelming Yabause compatibility?

Well first of all if you want my help just get Daemon Tools Lite and reject all the third party shit during the installation. I don't use Virtual Clone Drive so I don't want to complicate this further by going around and school you how change a perfectly fine rip into another format that Virtual Clone wants.

If you're uneasy about dt just download an older version. Besides you're just complicating things by using virtual clone, it's very limited, it supports only a handful of file types.

Now download from here to make sure you're using a proper rip:

Again, as have been said multiple times in this thread, most of your problems and grievances with saturn emulation stem from the fact that people are using shit rips.

>BIN or the CUE

You load the CUE file, which tells your disc mounter which files to load, but you need both files obviously.
Usually the files in a proper saturn rip is 1 bin file, 1 cue file and sometimes a bunch of wav files. If you're having problems you probably need to edit the cue file.

And you don't need BIOS, in fact using a BIOS will just make you need to set the region manually every time you play a game from a different region.

Now just get SSF and get it over with, it works out of the box. Don't forget to mount the image before opening SSF. And if you have a physical cd drive you'll need to change it to the virtual drive in the settings.

Personally I've been having screen flickers on the most recent version, so I recommend the former, but who knows it's maybe just me.
