Save states (Memories) don't seem to work at all. #22

Actual Behavior

Save states don't seem to work at all. I've tried it on a bunch of different games already, and none of them work with save states.

Trying it will give the error message: "Save not supported", and will corrupt the game and core, thus forcing a hard reboot of the Pocket.

Tried with common games like Super Mario Bros. 1, DuckTales, Contra and so on. None work.

I'm not really sure what's going wrong for you. Please try deleting the Cores/agg23.NES folder and copying everything back over.

That worked!

What happened was this:

  1. I got an email notification that the core was updated (Yay! :D)
  2. Before I managed to update my core, you had already pulled it, or at least was in the process of pulling it.
  3. I didn't know this, so I downloaded whatever I could find, which was the Source Code. No Release .zip was available, so I figured I'd just use the files from the dist folder in the source code .zip.
  4. All hell broke loose!

Thanks for the help. Case closed.

Glad you figured it out. I actually have an open bug with Analogue about exactly what happened to you, though the actual (updated) core should prevent that issue due to a workaround I implemented.
