==Versions==
There have been several versions of Yabause released, including a [https://github.com/libretro/yabause currently work-in-progress] core for [[RetroArchlibretro]]core. There is also a [[Wii emulators|Wii]] version, linked above; note that this is an unofficial release and support from the Yabause developers cannot be provided for it.
Developer devmiyax has forked Yabause to improve it.<ref>https://github.com/devmiyax/yabause</ref>
A French developer, François, also known as FCare, has forked devmiyax's yabause Yabause fork and called it "Kronos".<ref>[https://github.com/FCare/yabause Kronos branch]</ref><ref>[http://tradu-france.com/forumsmf/index.php?board=9.0 Difference between Kronos and Yaba Sanshiro/Uoyabause/Yabause]. Tradu-France's forum.</ref> It is more active than even the regular yabause Yabause so far as of 2018. Since late June 2018, it also supports the Sega Titan Video arcade system in version 1.30. However, all ST-V STV games are launchable on Linux but most games are still problematic on Windows.
Several build types for both devmiyax and FCare's branches are available. Binary releases for Kronos are available at [http://www.emutalk.net/forums/56-Sega-Saturn-Emulation EmuTalk's forum].
Yabause has a very decent rate of compatibility, around 70% of the games run well or perfectly.
Yabause has many advantages over [[SSF|SSF.Mednafen]] . If you use the OpenGL video driver, games can be rendered in higher resolutions, unlike SSF Mednafen which can only render in the game's native resolution. It is multi-platform and open-source, unlike SSF, which is closed-source and Windows-exclusive. SSF only lets you run games via mounted/burned disks, while Yabause lets you open ISO files as well as run burnt/mounted disks. The UI, despite not being perfect, is also better than SSFMednafen for very non-experienced users. What matters is compatibilityHowever, and SSF Mednafen is far ahead in that regardterms of compatibility. Yabause is recommended Use Mednafen for its features for the any games it is compatible with. Use that have issues on Yabause, or [[SSF for everything else]] if you're using a low-end system.
