Sat Moons

Welcome =]

Sat Moons is a compilation of homebrews for the Sega Saturn, using Atlas multi-boot capability.
It's obviously aimed at people who still use actual CDs, though it should work from any ODE as well.
Its usefulness aside, the project is a tribute to the wonderful Atlas software.

So far, it includes the following:
- Artemio's 240p Test Suite 0.1
- Memory Map Viewer
- SDLoader 0.127d, 0.381
- Save Game Copier 3.6.18 - 332 saves total
- Save Game Extractor 0.99
- Save Game Manager 5 - 45 firmwares total
- Save To QR Code 1.000

If using Pseudo Saturn Kai, it's required to load the CD with [Z].
At the main screen, [A] shows information for the active entry (features or things to know).
Feel free to let me know if something doesn't work as expected.
Suggestions are also welcome, especially other stuff worth injecting.

Things i wanted to inject, but won't:
- Save Data Manager - significant incompatibility with Atlas

Here's how the main screen looks like:

Wow, Atlas Creator dates back to 2006 … just how old is your project?

Pretty cool idea, though. There are still quite a few people burning discs.

Hello there =]
The project isn't as old as that, but it has morphed a bit over the years.
Originally, it was called "Atlas Creator Reborn".
The idea was to fix some things, make it more customisable, and user-friendly at the same time.
I also wanted it to be a collection of all the functional entries i could gather (about a hundred).
But recently, i finally accepted the fact that it would require too much time i don't have.
I ended up going for a more ready-to-use solution, while focusing only on the most (i hope) useful tools.

V2 should be ready soon, basically waiting for a permission.

In the mean time, here's how the new sprites will look like:
