notes: |
|
|
Beetle Saturn is the libretro port of Mednafen's Sega Saturn emulation module.
|
|
Two region-specific BIOS files are used: sega_101.bin for Japan/Asia NTSC,
|
|
mpr-17933.bin for North America, Europe, and all other regions. The core
|
|
returns false from InitCommon() if the BIOS file is missing or not exactly
|
|
512 KB, so both BIOS files are required for full region coverage.
|
|
|
|
Region auto-detection reads the disc header and picks the matching BIOS.
|
|
Manual region override is available via beetle_saturn_region core option.
|
|
|
|
The KOF95 and Ultraman ROM carts are optional game-specific expansion
|
|
cartridges loaded from the system directory. The Action Replay 4M Plus
|
|
cart (satar4mp.bin) is listed but marked unfinished in source (needs
|
|
CPU UBC emulation).
|
|
|
|
BIOS loading: mednafen/ss/ss.cpp InitCommon() lines 920-961.
|
|
Cart loading: mednafen/ss/cart.cpp CART_Init() lines 128-220.
|
|
Firmware path: libretro.cpp MDFN_MakeFName(MDFNMKF_FIRMWARE) -> system dir.
|
|
Default cart ROM filenames: mednafen/settings.cpp MDFN_GetSettingS().
