Title: Saturn mod page: revisited
Post by: NFG on December 19, 2005, 11:58:38 PM
I've reworked the Saturn mod page yet again.  the new one (http://www.gamesx.com/wiki/doku.php?id=imports:sega_saturn) is a lot clearer than the old one (http://www.gamesx.com/importmod/saturncon.htm).  

For some reason it's a page that's caused me great headaches; it was never easy to describe for me.  I think I more or less nailed it this time.

Comments?

You see the two tables of jumper configs? Might be a good idea to also highlight the 3 main ones in each table - JP, NA, EU.

Which Saturn pics are missing? I've had a couple of PAL Saturns recently with jumper configs which are very similar (if not identical) to the Navi HiSaturn ones. If those are the ones you need, I'll try and get pics.

Yup, those are the ones, with the jumpers split, so they're on the top and bottom.  I have pics but they're from a first-gen digicam, so they're...  Pretty awful.  Worse, I'd dare say, than nothing at all.

Got a couple of pics, sorry for the large size, I figured you could cut them down to whatever size you like. I'm afraid I've already cut the traces here (it had traces, not resistors linking them), but if I come across an unbutchered Saturn then I'll get pics of that as well.

Jumpers 6 and 7 are wired up the same as the Navi Saturn ones, jumpers 10/11/12/13 are slightly different though. Someone with suitable photoshop skills would no doubt have knocked up a fancy image, but sadly you're dealing with me, so you get a pic of some stuff scrawled on a scrap of paper. :lol:
