I guess trying to get one of the emulators to work is your only chance.

Try these bios roms: http://segaxtreme.net/content/emulation.html#saturn
Maybe there is some additional information how to set it up here: http://www.emulator-zone.com

In case you're successful, please post some more screenshots. 

... I'll try for sure.

Even if Spirit says it's really not worth the effort, given the suckage of said levels.

But, to tell the truth, to me playing those levels is like finally having a way with that hugely arousing blonde that you saw in High School but just couldn't get next to 'cause she was, like 3 years older than you. Now she's 40. Those melons are sagging bad, but... What the hell! Can't be worse than a solitary night on your own, right? ;)

You get the idea.... 

... any of you can speak any italian? 

... Unplayable.

Managed to get it running, tho.... 

... any of you can speak any italian?

Luckily not, considering I'd probably hear about that hugely arousing blonde from high school in Italian then.

:-) 40? Gosh you're ... grown up. 3 years older than me would be 36, which still is really acceptable.

Adding to Wikipedia:

Too much other stuff to do atm, used up all time to make demos for Ijed. ^^ And there would be mapping to do. ^^ ^^

Plus being pissed about the fact that this shop hasn't been able to deliver the Krait I ordered two weeks ago. GRRRR. 

... no, I don't mean to tell anything more than what I said before in italian, why should I?

I only asked because "sega" in italian can have an... amusing meaning, especially coupled with names like Quake, or a number of other games' names...

And yes, I'm "grown up", in fact, I turn 38 this very day...

"Acceptable", what can I say, I would suggest you don't let hugely arousing blondes in their 40s scare ya, they can be quite amusing human beings, I assure you... ;))

Besides, they may have a trick or two you don't know up their sleeves... ;)))) 

Hehe, yes they may. But it's nice having something to look forward to :-)

happy birthday =) 

I just turned 26 . . . still a we'en. 

.. Both of you..

I suppose Ijed meant "Happy Bday, the Silent" or do I share my birthdate with one of the mighty authors of Travail?

Anyway, thanks a lot, I'll raise a toast to you all tonight! 

Sorry, you've got the same colour name :\ 

On the title screen showing the copyright to id, it also says copyright portions Sega. I assume that the portions are the exclusive levels, but I'm not sure. 

They completely remade the levels, with id's agreement I would guess. 

Anyone knows if this actually exists: http://forums.lostlevels.org/viewtopic.php?t=1337 (sega saturn quake beta)?

I played around with emulators again. SSF always hung. But I managed to get the FOSS Yabause to load it. You need a BIOS. Also use software rendering. 

It does not really work. Models are not rendered & the sky is garbled and overlays parts of the screen. 

Ok, very old thread, but why not.

Even if there are copyright issues, does anyone care nowadays?
Are at least a few people interested in playing them?
But for now i do not have the time to do it, would be something for next year (except i find those levels superior myself :P ).

What about the levels of N64 Quake 2?
Have those ever been ported to the pc?
Would love to play them in some decent engine with mouse and keyboard <3 

I've bought a Sega Saturn only to play the Quake version, but I couldn't find the game at a reasonable price back then... Plus that the controller of the Saturn is very bad, so I've sold the console.

I would really like to play those special Saturn levels, maybe a guru from here can write a convertor for the maps. 

... finding a Saturn emulator that works over Windows ?
I know there exist these kind of stuff for Atari: http://www.cheek.org/atari/emulator.htm , so maybe same exist for Saturn...

check this website maybe: http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/saturn/ ? 

the Sega Saturn is very hard to emulate, I haven't managed to run Quake properly in an emulator. If someone does (first-hand), please share how exactly. 

 

dont hold your breath 

Yabause seems to almost work. It loads the title, and plays some of the music, and allows you to create a savegame. But on pressing start to start a game, it crashes for me. On Windows 7. But it might be worth a try on a platform other than Windows.

Unless yabause significantly improved (in the last ~2 years), forget about it.

SSF would be your best bet but if I recall correctly I never got it to work well enough. You can find compatibility lists on http://www.segasaturn.org/ (Japan, US, PAL). 

I actually just ran it perfectly in Cassini 3.0 - it seems that Cassini 3.0 itself can run it, but I have to open the frontend.exe application manually rather than using the start menu shortcuts. Also sometimes when I click on the frontend.exe application nothing happens. But it did load. And it did run. :)
