Tried running the .cue file with yabause 0.9.10 but all I get is a black screen and no audio?
Set cdrom to - ISO or CUE file
video core - open GL video interface
what else am I not doing?

Not a mac user but is there no "open file/iso" type option in the emulator? You might also be able to just drag and drop either the .bin or .cue file onto the icon for the emulator.
"I think that the problem with this video is it is highly derivative of many popular bands within the genre. Although when viewed on its own merits, it does have a deeper groove. However what it has in groove, it lacks in originality. One can't help but be reminded of such bands as Pearl Jam, White Zombie, Suicidal Tendencies and other bands that bear the mantle of so called "Alternative Rock". One is even reminded of Lorie Anderson when she wore curlers. Hehehmhm! This video speaks less to the heart and more to the sphincter. In closing, I think Korn would do well to learn more from -"
Unfortunately still not fixed it might have something to do with when i in stalled the yabause? As I didnt understand the following:
Uncompress the Yabause source archive, move to the newly
created directory, type
./configure --disable-dependency-tracking --disable-shared
So if someone could explain that to me in a language that a simpleton aka me, would understand I would be eternally grateful

Well, that ./configure bit makes me think you got a source code package rather than the program itself. If that's the case you could go through the trouble of compiling ("building") that source code, but it would probably be way easier to just get the pre-built version.
I found this copy which appears to be the pre-built one; http://sourceforge.net/projects/yaba...c.zip/download. It looks like extracting that will give you a folder called "yabause-0.9.14-mac", then going into that and into Yabause.app\Contents\MacOS you'll find a file just called "Yabause", which looks like the file you actually need to run to get the emulator going.
If you're not able to get it going that way, let me know here and I'll see if I can find a guide somewhere for it.

Its working!! I cant believe it! Im so happy right now! Thank you so much, I did as you suggested and downloaded yabause 0.9.14-mac!
The only problem is now is that its seems to crash after the part where you enter your character name? The screen goes to black and there doesn't appear to be any audio, don't suppose you have any thoughts as to why that might be?
thanks again
My first guess would normally be that it's a compatibility issue with the emulator, but according to this page the game should be fully playable; http://www.emu-compatibility.com/usa...v1_000-86.html
It does say to use the OpenGL video mode specifically, though. I would poke around the settings and see if you can find any sections labeled "Video" or "Graphics", and look for a "Video Mode" option of some sort that can be changed. I've actually been meaning to play this game for a while; I'll try later and see how far I can get with it.

Yeh it does seem to run best in OpenGL but unfortunately still freezes in the same spot, do you recon it could have anything to do with the Memory or save files? Because I haven't set them up mainly because I don't understand how too?
I also did some reading and people apparently have had success by burning the files to a disk and running from that I think? But thats also another thing I don't know how to do so I will look into that also haha also just to clarify that this specific game is panzer dragoon saga just incase we were talking about 2 different games as I know theres many different panzers in the series so it gets confusing ha but yes let me know if you get it to work that would be great!
I was wondering that actually, there were like different ones listed. Here's the compatibility page for Saga; http://www.emu-compatibility.com/usa...v1_000-20.htmlalso just to clarify that this specific game is panzer dragoon saga just incase we were talking about 2 different games
It says to use software mode, that could very well be what the issue is, assuming it wasn't on software by default. Also says to use a specific BIOS file, and I'm not sure how it handles those exactly.

I know this one it is because the CDDA is either not recognized or not there at all, either way the emulator is not reading the CDDA tracks a very common issue with Saturn games and well known for this game
If you want a good image then grab the one at http://www.epforums.org/showthread.php?89921
Just grab the first disc to make sure it was a disc image issue first , grab the rest if that image fixed it
Compat has nothing to do with it the same will happen on a real console anyway if the CDDA is not there
Also it needs to be read by the cue file, not the bin file for CDDA to be read

Hi Zorlon!
Thank you very much for your help, unfortunately even after downloading the image you shared I am still struggling to get past the 'choose your name sequence.
I used Yabause 0.9.13 and software video mode as MaslowK suggested with this link http://goo.gl/icqkoZ
I also uploaded a small unlisted video so this way you can see me trying to get the game to work and what settings I used, I thought maybe you would be able to spot a simple mistake im doing? you can find that here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7GYbc_A5DQ
If you could watch the video and offer any feed back I would be very grateful thanks
Firstly don't set it up as a MPEG it's not an MPEG game so take that off to start with
also try without mounting the disc image at all
Try the Run image option instead first but if you can only open a bin file then it may have the same issues as you need to be opening the image by it's cue file
If the above does not work then try the Run CD ROM option again with the game mounted in Daemon Tools
Lastly get the bios image and try the game again using the two above methods but with a bios
Again do not set the MPEG option up at all

Really sorry for the late reply, was away working for a few days.
yabause 0.9.13 only has the option of running it as an mpeg so I shall try using a different version, any you would recommend?
also sorry for stupid questions but how do I get the BIOS image? is it downloaded online somewhere or do I need to convert the .cue or .bin file?
Thanks for you help so far, really appreciate it
Not from what your video shows, it has a Run image option and a Run CD-ROM option, neither has anything to do with preferences and the MPEG part of Preferences is not for running normal games and should be blank
Run Image is for running disc images
Run CD-Rom is for running from actual CD's or could be used with Daemon Tools as that is a virtual CD-Rom drive
MPEG is not for use with normal games and should be left empty and game disc images are not MPEG rom images
download and extract and setup in preferences
I have a feeling because you have the disc images main binary open in several places it is causing complications as in open in Yabause as a MPEG rom even though it is not one and Daemon tools
You can run it that way but you may need the actual bios image setup that you do not have

Got it working!!! Zorlon I could kiss you lovely internet face!
I did as you suggested, used yabause 0.9.13 ran it from image and downloaded a sega saturn BIOS .bin (all regions) from here http://www.emuparadise.me/biosfiles/bios.html
just being nit-picky but frame rate seems to be a bit slow, is there a way of making it run smoother?
Also I dont suppose you explain to me how to set up saving?
From the bottom of my heart thank you Zorlon! I can finally finish this game I started 17 years ago!
Try playing with the Video setup, though software is usually the faster option, but also depends on what you have setup through that
