Hello,

I thought I'd post here just in case someone could help me, but I've been playing Yawara II through the physical CD and there's a problem where the game constantly freezes after the judo battle mini-game. It happens with all the modes no matter who wins.

I did a search of other topics and found conflicting information of posters saying it ran fine, and at least one other who had the same problem I did. If anyone could provide help (or a clear confirmation Yawara II just doesn't emulate well) that would be great. Thanks.

Just to be sure youre playing on an original CD and not a copy right?

Pretty confident it's the original CD. It was still in plastic wrap when I opened it. The case had the instruction booklet, and the CD has the print on it with the Super CD-ROM2 system icon, game logo and everything.

And I guess it would have helped before, but I tried it both on a Mac and Windows, the freezing happened both times.

scanlines_pattern_? controls the pattern of the scanlines at different zoom levels (2-6, no scanlines at zoom x1). Zero shows the color of the pixel and 255 shows black. You could tweak these but it probably won't help.

Yeah, I've tried a bunch of stuff and nothing has helped.

Does anyone know what happens when you lose at the judo game? Does it just flash to a game over screen or do your opponents taunt you? I'm just curious what it looks like, that's all.

Yeah, Magic Engine definitely doesn't work on the judo game

The real game, what happens is:

1) Characters return to starting positions and bow
2) Continue screen with animated Yawara headshot

Okay, thanks! I take it Yawara is probably looking pretty sad or is close to crying on the continue screen or something.
