MODE - In-Game Reset
Contents
Saturn
The Sega Saturn has two In-Game reset options in the MODE menu.:
- Return to MODE - When you trigger the reset, the Saturn automatically boots back to the MODE menu - This option only works if the "Fast Boot" option is also enabled.
- Return to CD->MODE - When you trigger this, the Saturn returns to the CD loading screen first, then you can hit start application to return to MODE
To trigger an In-Game Reset use use A+B+C+Start for Saturn, this typically first resets you to the title screen, a 2nd reset will return you to the option selected above.
Both involve injecting code into the reset function so compatibility with certain games may break. Whenever possible TerraOnion hard-codes these games to the optimal version. Using Return to MODE as your default offers the greatest compatibility. Please note however, that if you turn In-Game reset off, no hard-coding will be utilized and In Game reset will not return you to MODE.
