    Yeah, photocopies of service manuals are never good. That's why I'm glad I didn't throw huge piles of cash at them. They'll still have some useful items, though.

    Bock is Omar on ASSEMbler, omp ;)

    I have scanned the Sega Saturn Manuals

    I have done them in PDF 600dpi A4 section is B/W A3 schematics in grey. Tiffs 600dpi b/w A4 and A3.

    Now these are being RE-DONE due to some issue's some guys have over at SegaSaturnUk, so I have sent them to another fellow in Australia to have a crack at.

    It has to be remembered these are COPIES of the original manual NOT THE original manual. Anyway here we go

    PDFs

    A4 Section
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/0mzue75b6wyluya/Sega%20Saturn%20%28PAL%29%20No.013-1%20issued%20june%201995%20part%201%20A4%20size.pdf

    A3 Schematics
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/d4mkxd7p9...13-1 issued june 1995 part 2 of 2 A3 size.pdf

    Tiffs
    A4 Section
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/2r5xx2n5a...13-1 issued june 1995 part 1 of 2 A4 size.tif

    A3 Schematics Section
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/awxdma4vj...13-1 issued june 1995 part 2 of 2 A3 size.tif

    So I guess if you don't like them, for the other fellow (RetroJunkie) to re-scan them.

    What did they have issues with? They are very readable considering its at least a copy of a copy

    How clean they would be i guess. Once i post it in the morning i no longer care. I think my mistake was volunteering for a forum i didn't know. Also i have never scanned and uploaded before (i have of course scanned just not uploaded) so i was learning and may have rocked the boat with that. They may have been thinking "oh great, here we go..... Grandads on the computer".

    I haven't even read any of these manuals yet lol!

    I have also uploaded the tifs for the master system. They can be found on the smspower site. Yet to join tge pdfs up but i am too tired.

    Geez, I don't know. It looks like a damn good copy given the quality of the originals - especially with the circuit board diagrams.
    They look like they must have been pretty bad, given how clear everything else in your scans is.

    The board scans arent even that important. The schematics and the rest are completely readable. I have worked from far worse.

    Hahaha, I think they need some more blue on their site. Not enough blue. Definitely needs more blue.
    Those scans are FANTASTIC! :congratulatory:
    Thanks again for the work you are doing on these!

    I missed out on one years ago. It sold for a few hundred dollars.

    I've had a go at scanning in the Saturn manual, I don't think mine will be any better than Omps though!
    I tried a few different settings, stuck them in folders TIFFs and PDFs - I'll have to upload from work tomorrow.
    Then you guys can fight it out amongst yourselves :encouragement:

    I just had a quick peak at the forums.

    I really can't believe some of the shit one person was crapping on about. I think you done a top job with what you had omp.

    Actually I said there would be a fire in your kitchen....

    Or did I see world exploding as well?

    Either or....

    I have FTP'ed before with my XBOX, but I didn't feel comfortable delving into a strangers computer.

    All's well that ends well?

    I have just moved onto the next lot. Be thankful though as some of the GG manual is missing as the page was initially copied cock-eyed.
