FUCK! Excuse my godamned fucking french. Apparently a decent fucking ISO of this game doesn't fucking exist. I got the CD files for use with a "Sega saturn cd burning emulation software"
FUCK!

Well, the emulator that I use and swear by is SSF (currently at version 0.07 Beta R4 - what a mouthful). Not sure if that helps (I know a few games still don't work on it, like Three Dirty Dwarves).

Why don't you use Daemon's tools to emulate your cd drive and trick the emulator into thinking its a real cd?

That's right, I forgot about that...
In the SSF directory, there's a subdirectory called "Message", and within is a plain-text file called "default". Normally it should just contain two words in it, each on a seperate line - japanese and english. But change the text file so it reads:
english japanese And the messages and menus should be in English, so you can edit the options to the point where you can tell the program which CD-ROM drive to use.

You dont understand daemon's tools? There's nothing to understand. You install it, you select 'mount drive' on the program and you select the cue/iso/bin whatever and that's it.

No .iso file or .bin file on it though. I've got map character and daa like that.

Where the heck did you get those files? Those sound like data files copied straight from the CD, rather than put into ISO format.
There was some French site that offered a bunch of Saturn ISOs, I'll have to dig it up.

How smoothly does the emulation run with this program? What kind of processor/graphics card would you need in support? I have a few Saturn games I want to play but don't wanna dig my Saturn out of the attic

I have a few Saturn games I want to play but don't wanna dig my Saturn out of the attic The problem with Saturn emulation is that the Saturn's various CPU's and processors have to work in complete synchronization for things to work properly - meaning that things are going to be pretty slow. That being said, if you have at least a 3.0 GHz processor (preferably with hyper-threading), you ought to at least be able to chug along at a playable framerate, if not at 100% speed.
