      @retropieuser555 I'm baaaack lol

      Ok, so updating my retropie didn't help with the save game issues. My son was playing some Kirby games, and they were getting erased every day he logged in.

      So, I finally found "resetromdirs" and did it! However, now I have this ...Error after using ResetRomDirs

      Although there's a command line, I can't seem to type anything using the controllers. Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

      @TheBR said in SNES Games not saving within game:

      This is almost certainly why there was no save, i assumed it would save after every level, my bad.

      You didn't expect it to be that easy, eh :) ?

      @sleve_mcdichael said in In-game saves in Zelda 1&2 NES (lr-fceumm):

      Can you clarify? You're using the (Rev 1) rom and you're seeing saves persist? Here is the rom that I am using (md5sum):

      No, the ROM file I was using for test doesn't have the Rev 1:

      md5sum Legend\ of\ Zelda\,\ The\ \(USA\).zip ba3737710651036dbb3b28b88b9dfbb0 Legend of Zelda, The (USA).zip

      We don't support preloaded/3rd party images. Install RetroPie from the image provided at https://retropie.org.uk/download and see if you still have this issue.

      @robin76 How about starting with https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first ? Please give the answers for the questions on that page, especially the RP version and what emulator are you using to run the ROM.
      Files in the ROM folders should never be owned by root, how did you transfer your ROMs ?

      @MattyL42 You prob don't need to replace anything like dank said, this was from a couple years ago but it did fix my problem. Just send the info of your setup so someone can help you further.

      Here was the old thread for reference.

      Although I like to "earn my spurs" sometimes, I think that anyone should play their games like they want. For the vast majority of people, games are for having fun, after all.

      So, if someone wants to play all unlockable content from the start, I'll gladly let them. RetroArch officially supports cheats, after all.

      Another situation in which unlocked saves and cheats are very handy are gaming parties where people just want to have fun. Even hardcore gamers do that from time to time.

      @spudsmctoole And for your autostate thing, I've faced exact the same effect that the option was activated! .... I've written a small script that will alter your retroarch.cfg as you want.

      You can find it here: Dirty Little RetroArch.cfg writer

      You can call the script to disable autostate_save feature like this

      $HOME/RetroPie/scripts/SetRetroArchCfg.sh "$1" "savestate_auto_save" "true" "false"

      @sainerd You might have chosen the wrong forum to ask this question - this forum is for RetroPie related topics; this particular topic is about emulation of a memory card by a Playstation 1 emulator and transferring save data from a PS1 memory card to a file to be used by the emulator.

      @barbudreadmon I did yes. Back then I only updated lr-fbalpha 2012 which didn't improve things.

      @Shootersf I have only tried PiFBA briefly. I use lr-fbalpha as I use a Pi3. Does PiFBA have a config file that can be edited and saved? It may well stick if you go that route.

      @VTHokiEE
      I think it depends on which emulator made those save files. Like if you did a save state with lr-vba-next and try to load it with lr-gpsp, it will not work but go back to lr-vba-next and it can read them again.
