Radical Dreamers SNES ROM seems busted...

[Schala Zeal]

ZSNES is reporting RD as damaged, no matter where I get it.

Perhaps try another emulator maybe? I always use ZSNES, but I've heard snes9x is just as good. It seems highly unlikely that the ROMs would be corrupt from every location that you download them from.

[FaustWolf]

Yeah, there's a bunch of wrongly-sized RD ROMs floating around out there. The size of a working English-patched ROM in bytes should be 2,097,152 bytes.

Best source I've found is rom(word that describes a a tightly-knit group of people which share a common culture).

I once tried RD in the snes9x, but all the letters were blurred, and couldn't understand a single thing.

[Schala Zeal]

Sad to say I also tried SNES9X *lowers head* Square hates me for being a real life version of one of their creations.

Strange...I found the rom quite a while ago, and it runs fine on SNES9X, but I haven't tried it out on ZSNES. These roms are un-patched, right?

[Vehek]

Which version are you trying to run? Untranslated or translated?

[Schala Zeal]

Translated

[mav]

Try running an untranslated version first, if that works, then it's probably something that can easily be taken care of.

[Schala Zeal]

Alright. Know where I can obtain a copy?

[Fireseal]

I had(maybe I still do) have a working copy of the RD rom, but I do recall I had to download 2 other files, one to translate the game, and another one for the Stellaview(was it called the Stellaview?), since RD was released for that satelitte  program for the Super Famicom.

I had to practically merge all 3 of them on the ZSNES emulator, the best SNES emulator on the net by the way.

[Schala Zeal]

How do I get the Stellaview thingy?

[BROJ]

You shouldn't need the SatellaView BIOS; ZSNES emulates it by default. However, if you still need it, PM me.

[Schala Zeal]

Alright, it works, although upon first boot, it said the saved RAM was full and each slot had unicode symbols. I erased one to start the game and so far so good. I take it the gameplay consists of a story being told and periodically I choose the path of the story?

Yep, looks like you're good to go.
