SAROO is a SEGA Saturn HDloader
Hi, Even in this latest firmware version 0.3, the game crashes as soon as it starts the first stage
Tests were done using the delay sector from 1000 to 8000 and nothing changed
Hi. Do you have any plans to insert support for more languages?
I can help with Brazilian Portuguese if you have interesting.
Let me know
Thanks
Can you explain how works save feature?
I'm playing POWERSLAVE (USA) and sometimes savefile doesn't update after powercicle or reset console and some game progress is lost.
my saroo ver.1.32f (paradise store) does not play some games that should play. I'm trying to run the games die hard trilogy, fighters megamix, fighting vipers and others that ran on the same version from the paradise store, 1.32f also acquired from go go games (youtube), in this case it worked, bought it from the same place and same version , for testing, however I did the test on two identical cards, but mine did not reproduce the game, I tested on 5 Sega Saturn, on 3 different cards, and on all firmware, none of them reproduced these games, even in different game regions they did not It doesn't work, this could be a board or update problem @tpunix?
Hi.
Don't know if it is possible.
It would be great if it could replace ROM cartridges, like the The King of Fighters '95.
The user would place the ROM image in a folder of the SD Card and SAROO would replace the ROM cartridge.
Thanks.
Thunder Force 4 content in Thunder Force Gold 2 audio issue. When I try the game after a few minutes I lose the music.
After updating to TPU version 20231101, the songs from KOF 97, KOF 96 and Dragon Ball Shin Butoden do not work. The voices of some Radiant Silvergun characters also don't work. I didn't test other games, however, there was no such sound problem before updating to version 20231101 by TPU.
I have already downgraded to the old version and updated again several times but this bug still persists. Can someone help me? I'm very sad, this version 20231101 only made my Saroo worse.
The 20231031 version was perfect and now I cant turn back to this perfection.
Edit: X-MEN CHILDERN OF ATOM has no music as well.
Hello and thanks for SAROO!
I've followed this "board", saw some YouTube videos and read some Reddit posts, but I'm asking if these are good days to buy a SAROO or if it's better to wait for a new hardware revision. I've seen some good prices on Aliexpress vendors, a quite lower than previous weeks.
So, is the founder planning a new release in the coming weeks?
Thanks again for your contribute to the Sega Saturn Community.
The game freezes when you try to use Umbrella Lab computer.

During this part of the game the following delay sets were used:
sector_delay=2000, sector_delay=1000, sector_delay=1100 and sector_delay=500

Hello,
Please share the latest version of firm and boot os.
On consoles with BIOS version 1.00, no games load.
Saroo brick after last update SAROO_20231101.zip
@tpunix tpunix, I updated to the latest version of saroo, and it took a long time to load while updating. I restarted Saturn and then Saroo wouldn't boot anymore.
I was using the 10/31/2023 version, I formatted the SD card in fat32:
I went to use the 01/11 update with SSMaster.bin and .rbf.
After that it loaded as if it was updating but it stayed for a long time, about 2 to 3 minutes. I restarted the Saturn, and Saroo no longer booted. It only opens in the Saturn menu (Drive empty)
Info: Board HW Ver. 1,32f
Can you help me, Is it possible to roll back the firmware?
Thanks
Hello team,
First of all, I wanted to say thank you for working on this amazing project. So far, I haven't encountered any major issues, so I'm excited to see how this evolves and gets even better.
I wanted to bring up an issue with the 2.4Ghz controllers from Retro-Bit. For some reason, once you press a d-pad to scroll down the list of games, it gets stuck. I have to basically unplug these, plug the OEM controllers to select the game and then plug them back if I want to use them.
I'm not sure if this is Saroo related but it's something that might be cool to fix eventually.
Thanks in advance!
TPUNIX,
Are you OK if I begin the wiki on github ?
您好,很抱歉打扰您,我复刻了这个项目,但是在FPGA烧录程序这里遇到了问题。
1.我编译了 FPGA的固件,他提示成功,但是在我点PROGRAMMER按钮后,对话框显示 CANNOT OPEN FILE C:XXXX/FPGA/SSMASTER.CDF。。。。。
3.固件程序是要下载到U8中么?因为我现在不确定是我的FPGA芯片还是FLASH芯片的问题。。。。
很抱歉问这么简单的问题。。。
另外我检查了,3组电压,3.3V 2.5V 1.2V都存在。
也测试了50M的晶振工作正常。。。。
Both component appears like SPI_Flash and SPI_Ram, could you give a reference to order it correctly?
FW: 231125 & 0.3
There's no animation during the custscene:

I have sent you an email.
I can compile the new firm_saturn files you posted yesterday. However, the menu is broken. I am on the latest MCU firmware for October.
In main.c, after smpc_cmd(CDOFF) is performed, Saroo never gets to while(1) loop, initializing the menu and shell.
Can you please fix this for the menu? I am ready to push commit for French and Portuguese translation. However, I cannot get menu to work.
Hello everyone, I am writing to you to obtain a little information, how could I test my saroo, I think it is bricked and I would like to know how to check the FPGA and the stm32, I would also like to know If there is the possibility of obtaining debug to see if saroo starts well, mounts the SD drive and obtains information from the console.
Thank you very much and greetings.
Sorry for my English sponsored by Google translate.
Saroo is awesome!
I hope it can get 100% of all Saturn games in the future.
Games that didn't work on Saroo version 1.3:
Is there any possibility of these games working in the future?
With the latest Saroo update (231031 or 231101) it is possible to run original games on CD, bypassing the region lock if the Saturn is from a different region than the game.
Would it be possible to make non-original CD games also work through Saroo?
Thank you very much.
I am very interested in this project, can we cooperate
老板,我正在编辑菜单。我把字符串翻译成英文。我们的想法是有一个英文菜单。我下载了 SaturnOrbit,将编译器更改为 SH-ELF,但遇到链接器错误。您有什么建议来修复开发环境吗?我想为这个项目贡献菜单并将其翻译成其他语言。
Hi,
during some testing a youtuber found a strange behavior while playing Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 with a CD-ROM game inserted in the unit.
The Access LED started to blink as if the console was trying to read the content of the CD-ROM.
Is this a glitch?
Best regards

MAKE_ELF调用编译器后 提示 无touch命令。这个我还要安装什么软件吗?
Thank you for letting me run my favorite game, KOF95, in this version up.
When I actually ran KOF95, it ran very well.
However, after 3 or 4 stages, the game resets and jumps to the Saturn CD player screen.
I was wondering if this is just me and if there is a way to fix this.
Tested with firm 0.3.
Game stop at black screen after the Zoom intro, we can hear SFX but the game doesn't go forward. Tried with sector_delay up to 24000 without success.
Would love for this project to receive translations to other languages, such as English.
This would allow for people who don't understand Chinese to be able to navigate the menus.
Excuse me, i have a 256G TF card but don't support it.
I've been having some problems with Saroo on my VA 0.8 USA. The saroo is on firmware 231125, FPGA 05. But the same problem occurred with firmware 231111, FPGA 05. The revision of my saroo is 1.32F.
King of Fighters 96 and 97 have a problem with the sound FX, after some fights the sound has a problem.
Another problem I have is that after leaving some games for about 2 hours and 30 minutes to run alone, they freeze. This happened in Metal Slug, Garou Desetsu 3 (Fatal Fury 3) and Dungeons Dragons Shadow Over Mystara. But I left Groove on Fight running for 3 hours and it worked well, there were no problems.
So I would like to know if anyone else with VA 0 USA has these problems or if any Saroo developers confirm that VA 0.8 USA is not fully compatible with Saroo.
i have videocd card, can saroo play vcd backup file, not from disc?
Hi,
first, thanks for your great work.
2nd, i would like to add and adjust some font of menu also add traditional chinese font into it. but i am not quite under how you pack the hzk14u.bin font file. Hope you can give some advice regard this file.
Tested on FW: 231125, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 and 0.6.
There's a glitch during music transition to another.
It's a little bit difficult to hear in the video bellow, though in the sound menu you can hear it cleary.
During gameplay:

The correct store to buy the original saroo on Aliexpress is a "Retro game Paradise store"?
Tested with firm 0.3
Ingame musics are skipping, as if SAROO's faster loading times made the game load too fast. It's something you can hear clearly in character select screen and all custcenes/dialogs between levels.
Operation of Clockwork Knight is OK. No changes required. Entire game playable to the end.
Operation of NiGHTS seems OK. No problems encountered so far.
Operation of Clockwork Knight 2 is not OK. After beating boss #1, there is a black screen. It should go to next area/region.
Is there any suggestion for TXT file configuration?
Hi this one is also having same problem since the old version of the firmware. Sometimes it freezes after the capcom logo and sometimes it starts, using the z has a better chance of success starting and passing through the capcom logo.
Another problem is with the robots' graphics that get graphical errors and when you enter the options it often crashes the game.
It was tested with sector delay from 1000 to 24000 also with play delay up to 3000, improved freezing of the capcom logo, but the other two reported problems persist.
Note: bios of my saturn is ntsc and version 1.0a
I have Saroo from paradise shop 1.32 etc. Latest software from 25.11.2023 and PAL console. I'm experiencing a lot of sound glitches. I'm watching YouTube and plenty people saying games working without any issues. I have tested about 10 vendors of sd cards, I have tested different regions/isos of same game - still same problem. Main game with glitches is wwf wrestlemania usa and eur, mortal kombat trilogy all regions, ultimate mortal kombat 3 all regions. My bios ver is pal-c-v1.01a, I think my motherboard is VA0 revision
In the previous version of firmware it gave the same problem, but in this version it doesn't work at all.
It used to work randomly with 3k play delay and 6k sector delay, although most of the time it doesn't go past the second fmv, but now in version 0.3 it's not working anymore
I've seeing a lot of youtubers testing Saroo and indicating some games whitch is working and not working on it, but it's very spread and it's hard to known about whitch games are compatible.
GitHub seems a great place to do a centralized and collaborative compatibility game list, what will help to identify and fix some incompatible games too!
Just a suggestion, thanks for this amazing project!
When will saroo. Hame memory function
My FPGA firmware version is 02, and I tried upgrading with a tf card, but it didn't work.
On the title screen, I press start, but there is no response and I cannot enter the game.
thank you for your hard work
Good afternoon, my Saroo version 1.32f, only lights up two green lights, where one is fixed and the other is flashing and is on the Sega Saturno dashboard. I already changed the SD card and nothing, can anyone help me solve it? Note: I cleaned the console with isopropyl alcohol and nothing, my console is unlocked by a chip that connects to the CD drive). I await a response and thank you.
In all Sonic games, music stops working randomly during gameplay.
This is a problem that comes from the previous firmware.
Tests were carried out with delay sector 1000 to 12000 without any effect
