    7:22 The Ireel demo uses the same kind of technique as Burning rangers to display some semi transparent sprites over other sprites and VDP2 background. It draws them to an off screen area in the VDP1 framebuffer and then transfers that area to a VDP2 layer. Something in that process isn't working correctly with Mister causing those persistant particules. They don't happen on the console.

    The Saturn is such a great console, especially once you factor in the japanese releases. It certainly has one of the most unique libraries. PlayStation might have won that generation, but in my opinion the Saturn might have stood the test of time better

      It’s because it did 2D so well, and 2D has held up better than early 3D. PSone paved the way for Sony, and Saturn buried Sega.

    I got Zero Divide on the PS because I didn't have my Satur yet and I needed something close to VF and it fit the bill. The 60FPS and VF control scheme was awesome. And I ended up liking the game well.enough. but once I got VF2 on my Saturn it was hard to go back

    Just a quick question. I know that the core is still in development, but I wanted to know if anyone else is still having full motion videos freeze randomly (but still skippable). It's hard to keep up with all the updates and such, but I do remember reading about older RAM modules possibly having issues. Any clarification would be greatly appreciated! I've been testing Panzer Dragoon Saga with each new update, and the FMVs still tend to freeze randomly.

  • @Galgomite

    May I ask an oddball question? I just bought a RT4K, and on my setup, real hardware Saturn 480i (playing VF2) is deinterlaced properly while the Saturn MiSTer core (HDMI Direct mode) looks like bob deinterlacing no matter what options I choose. RT4K seems to think MiSTer Saturn VF2 is running in 240p. Do you experience this?

    • @VideoGameEsoterica
      @VideoGameEsoterica  6 месяцев назад +1

      The interlacing isn’t finalized yet so expect weirdness. So yes what you are getting is “correct” in its incorrectness

      I wish the Saturn 240p test suite had some kind of 3D Control Pad test. So many people play with analog mapped to d-pad and this has created a lot of confusion "often by default". Does the core have some kind of switch on the OSD? The original 3D Control Pad could turn off the analog control on the fly with a switch on the controller. I'd prefer it if you could map that button functionality to a modern controller. We don't need a scenario were the d-pad and analog stick are working at the same time. Confusing!
