Good day, everybody! I have a technical problem with one of my games for Saturn: DooM. Forums which are dedicated to Doom didn't help me with that. Probably my problem is little known. I'd like to play and maybe TAS this game for fun though I found it only once in wishlist, but have problem with gameplay: I opened this game on Yabause and Bizhawk: no one shows the objects, my pistol and map itself (only mountains). Also there is no fire when name DooM appears. How to fix it?? I changed render type from Software to Open GL, the graphic became much better, but there is nothing on the screen excepting mountains! Bios: v1.0 (U+E).
TASing is like making a film: only the best takes are shown in the final movie.

I would be very interested in following this project. I'm a big advocate of console versions of FPSes, and there really needs to be more research into them and to celebrate the differences between them and the PC versions as well as seeing speedruns and TASes on consoles. Also, if you're interested in Saturn games (again, an under-researched and underappreciated area), and FPSes in general, I'd very much like to see a TAS of Hexen - imo the Saturn version is the best of all the console versions (and I've played both that and the PS1 version as well as on PC).

Saturn emulation is pure crap. Much worse than even N64, which is quite badly emulated.

No, this is my first experience in Saturn games! If I will TAS Hexen, I'm not sure my movie will be published: always can be found route, which is faster than mine! I read in wiki that button on one level can open the door on the other and etc. Thank you for the advice!

Bizhawk 2.0 has new Saturn core (from Mednafen). Now Doom works very well! All textures are now displayed, but minor issues still remain.
