    So I need a few people who own copies of the PAL version only, to check their game disc and let me know their revision detail of the disc.

    I use the Saturn Region Patcher ver 3.0 and below is the full export of my CD, the reason I ask is the audio tracks 9-17 on my CD of the PAL version are missing from the disc and plays a static hiss in-game when they are used and on the CD player bios menu. Now the game can be finished from start to finish and the issue at first can't be noticed until you reach the first bike level in game. After that it occurs when ever a level uses one of those sound tracks. I can video the issue if needed.

    Now this isn't a scratch issues the discs surface is fine, so either it's a bad burn on my disc or could in fact be a bad master disc, in which case many copies may have the same issue at worse it might even be a bad version of the game and there might be a v1.1 floating around. Now Skeleton Warriors was not that common in Europe in fact I don't remember seeing it for sale in the 1990s either, making me wonder if the PAL release was recalled. It not a great game either and certainly didn't sell that well, I didn't know anyone with the PS1 release either at the time. I've checked over the net but can't find anyone who has played the PAL Saturn version so far.

    So is it just my disc? Or is it a more wide spread issue? I'd be interested to know if someone has the same revision as me and has the same issue or not.

    Cheers for confirming, is there a known fixed PAL build? If not I'll just have to keep an eye out for a USA copy.
