I just pulled from the buildbot. Running on Manjaro Linux, up to date, the game and save are held on a local file server. In the folder, there is a .dsv file for the game, but is functionally empty:

KH358DAYKH358DAYKH358DAYKH358DAY

(empty space for a few kilobytes)

\Uffffffff|<--Snip above here to create a raw sav by excluding this DeSmuME savedata footer:\Uffffffff\Uffffffff

None of the other cores I use have any issues saving to the local server. Savestates are still functional, and save to the same folder as the .dsv file.

Let me know what you need to know.

The buildbot hasn’t been working for Linux since dec 21 because of no libpcap, so you’re better off building it yourself.

I’m not sure what’s keeping it from saving, but since the file is empty, there’s no harm in deleting it and seeing if some permission was screwed up.

Wait, what happened to libpcap? It's still pretty regularly developed relative to the other pcap builds.

I'll try it out, thanks!

EDIT: Just tried it, no change.

It's just not installed on the buildbot.

Check to see if there's any weird symbols in the path name. Also try moving the files to the local machine and see if they save OK.
