(SOLVED) Yabasanshiro (Golden Axe The Duel Saturn)

[Drdave79]

So I tried the following link to install Yabasanshiro on my Rasberry Pi 4 arcade, but still can't select the emulator when trying Golden Axe The Duel on Sega Saturn. I know the Pi has troubles with emulating the Saturn, but I used to be able to play Golden Axe before. Not sure what has changed.

Has anyone had any success in either getting this installed, and/or getting Golden Axe The Duel to work on any emulator?

Thank you.

It loads, but it doesn't recognize my joystick or buttons.

@drdave79 AdvanceMame is a non-libretro port, and because of that the default input-settings for libretro-emulators wont work with AM.
You will have to map your inputs in AdvanceMame, to do this just open the well-known "TAB"-Menu, which MAME offers since 1996 ;)

yes yabanshashiro playes the game,
i just put the game in the rom directory and it works.

[Drdave79]

@kounabi22 How did you get Yabasanshiro to come up as an option? I installed it following the directions. But when I select the game and go to emulator choices, it doesn't come up.

[kounabi22]

@drdave79

Did you put them rom in the saturn roms directory?

try to resintall it.

[Drdave79]

@kounabi22 which rom? The Golden Axe rom? Yes, it's there. It comes up in emulation station. But Yabasanshiro isn't one of the two emulator choices. And I've re-installed it.

• add to /opt/retropie/configs/saturn/emulators.cfg a line for yabasanshiro:

yabasanshiro = "/opt/retropie/emulators/yabause/yabasanshiro -i %ROM%"

in order to apear in the emulator option when you load a rom

Alright. Now it's showing up as a selectable emulator. However, when I select the game, it just returns me back to the menu. It doesn't load.

@drdave79

unzip the game, it dont load zip files.

[kounabi22]

@drdave79

put those files in this directory

[Drdave79]

@kounabi22 I did. Otherwise it wouldn't even see the game in the first place.

@drdave79

you have wrong rom of the game...check my image.

[Drdave79]

@kounabi22 I found a new source and it works on Yabause. Albiet the sound is choppy but that was to be expected. Still no joy with Yabasanshiro. When I select the emulator, it just returns back to Emulation Station. Curious where you got your rom from that works with Yabasanshiro?

[kounabi22]

@drdave79

i dont believe its a matter of rom now.
probably some bios files missing from yabasanshiro folder inside saturn rom folder
