This is the right place to report issues regarding Pseudo Saturn Kai Sorry for the delay.
I shall update the automatic selection of JHL loader for Decathlete USA. The change will be available in next public release.

BTW, do you confirm that other games load correctly with automatic loader ? Also, if possible please give another try with the game burned on another CD-R, or the original game CD-ROM if you have it nearby.
It's very likely to be a problem on Pseudo Saturn Kai, but in order to be sure it's not a caused by your CD-ROM drive (or the brand/quality/burning speed of your CD-R etc) that would be great if you can test with another CD-ROM.

On two different Saturns with BIOS v1.01 (CRC: 224B752C), I played four events in Decathlon mode and went in-and-out of different menus several times but did not encounter this behavior with the CWX loader. Stock all-in-one carts can cause many issues... so, if it is not already shielded, please apply shielding to your cart (as shown here...) and test again.

It happens consistently on my side only in the arcade mode, for triggering it select "400m race" as the fourth event, fail it (it's simple to fail it) and then retry it. This consistently reproduce the hang. In Decathlon mode strangely it never hangs. Btw, it could be the shielding but it's the first issue I have with my setup after 30+ burned games.

Thanks for the info, this seems to be a bug in the game itself as it occurs when playing the following versions on Fenrir ODE via the official loader :
  • DecAthlete (Japan) (v1.001)
  • DecAthlete (USA)
JHL loader does not fix the issue in either version for me, and the bug is fixed in the following versions :
  • Athlete Kings (Europe)
  • DecAthlete (Japan) (v1.004)
  • DecAthlete (Japan) (v1.005)
As an aside, two characters were removed from the USA version so I recommend playing the European or revised Japanese versions instead. More info here :

Interesting! And maybe I understood why it didn't happen anymore for me. I guess that if you enter a record in the 400m race in Decathlon mode, the bug is not triggered any longer. That's why I thought that with the JHL loader it doesn't happen anymore, I set a record in Decathlon mode before trying again in the Arcade mode with the JHL.

Thank you for the investigation, @privateye... and @halkieria... ! Automatic loader setting is set back to original setting (CWX loader) and source code contains some comments regarding DecAthlete support in case someone reports a similar problem in the future

I was about to write that it's not possible to merge new features without the source code of Satiator official menu. Then I looked at its repository to find that it was updated recently !
So it should be possible to update Satiator Menu Kai but I need some time to check what's new on that source code, update and test Satiator Menu Kai etc. Please stay tuned

hello, i want to use pseudosaturn kai built in cheat in my another action play cartrigde, how could i extract or read code on data sheet? or where i can get code sheet? Thank you.

 ee574 Oct 16, 2024
I found cheat data "SatCom_src_20240114\pseudosat_kai\cheat_codes\cheats_full_data_ram.c" and "SatCom_src_20240114\pseudosat_kai\cheat_codes\cheats_full_data_rom.c", but it is difficult to extract and recognize, is there any tool to convert that into readable data?

 cafe-alpha Oct 17, 2024
Pseudo Saturn Kai cheat codes handler was developed without regard of compatibility with Action Replay cheat codes handler (the interest of adding cheat codes feature was to make something better than Action Replay, not something similar) and for that reason the cheat codes list can't be imported from Action Replay cartridge.

 ee574 Oct 23, 2024
thank youAnother question is that has Pseudo Saturn Kai provide any bin file which can be loaded by Saturn Emulator "SSF", the emulator can load cartridge(4MB Expand RAM, Backup RAM...etc) bin file.

 ee574 Oct 23, 2024

 privateye Oct 30, 2024
@ee574... : flasher_full.bin is for flashing the full version of Pseudo Saturn Kai to Gamer's Cartridge... or USB dev cart..., it's not for use in SSF.
To use a cartridge in SSF, simply go into Option(O) -> Peripheral and set "Cartridge" to the feature that you wish to use. Nothing has to be set in the "Data Cartridge" field.

For example, if you want to use a backup memory cartridge then the Peripheral tab should look like this :



Latest version of SSF at the time of this post is SSF_PreviewVer_R33 and is available here :

@cafe-alpha..., please to allow ask do you have plan to better game compatible in your next release to pseudokai ?
I asked because there are two games ( Alien Trilogy patch utility necessary ) and Sokko Seitokai: Sonic Council is not compatibily and i like so much. Thanks for you for this nice project called pseudokai. Greetings.

Both games work in Pseudo Saturn Kai v6.545, Alien Trilogy requires patching when loaded from CD-R and Sonic Council does not require anything special. Could you please provide more details on how you're running these games (CD-R, ODE etc) and your current firmware version?

 kamugin Jan 21, 2025
Yeah i know about Alien Trilogy, but Sokko Seitokai Sonic Council...Tested in two diferent Saturns ( Japanese Model 2 | Tectoy White Version ) same Pseudokai 6.545. Stuck this screen ( in attached ). CDR Drive units tested ( work in another CDR burned games ). The ISO File works in Saroo and Fenrir. CD-R burned tested in SSF R.33.

I finally tested Sonic Council and Pseudo Saturn Kai Lite v6.545 can load a burned copy just fine. Even though SSF loads your disc, this doesn't guarantee that it can be played on real hardware. These are all factors which can affect the Saturn's ability to load burned discs :
  • CD-R brand
  • Burn speed (10x works fine for me)
  • Burning software and hardware
  • Condition of the Saturn's laser
  • Disc image integrity
  • Shielding in all-in-one carts...
