      As all my other saves appear to be ok, could it be that the save is in the mupen64plus folder and not the lr-mupen64plus location and it's not being found because I've changed the emulator, or is that not a thing?

        @goobatroopa standalone mupen64plus saves are not in the ROMs directory by default. I believe they are in a hidden folder. I'll have to check next time I'm near my pi.

          @quicksilver yeah that is my thought. So with that in mind, if I change the emulator, will it not be able to read my save game if it's in the old emulator folder?

            @goobatroopa I don't think the saves are compatible between the standalone and the libretro core.

              @mitu ah. In that case, I don't think I have a SD card issue. Which would make sense as to why nothing else is lost.

                If the files you 'lost' weren't there in the first place, then probably yes.

                  @goobatroopa there is a .sra to .srm convertor tool I have used with good results if you want to convert standalone mupen64plus saves to libretro mupen64plus saves.

                      I think the .sra saves are in ./local/mupen64plus/saves
