      Hello all,

      This is my first post, so ... Hi!

      I've had a good search around for this but the answers I have found don't solve my issue.

      While playing an Atari 7800 game (lr-prosystem), when I try to 'Save State' through either the RA setup menu or via my save state hotkey button, I get no notification that the state has saved at the bottom of the screen. Then when I try to load the state I get the 'Failed to load state...' message.

      All the other libretro emulators I have setup save and load states properly, except for Amstrad CPC (lr-caprice32) which doesn't support save-states. I know this because when I try to save the state of an Amstrad game the message 'Core does not support save state' appears at the bottom. If the Atari 7800 RA core didn't support save-states then surely the same message would appear?... so I'm guessing they are supported.

      I've looked into the file system through SSH, and checked all the file permissions. Each rom folder has the same permissions and just in case this was the issue I reset ownership of all folders as well without any luck.

      Any other ideas please?... or can anyone confirm they have save-states working for the Atari 7800?

      Thanks.
