Lack of documentation #70

Closed abradley2 closed 7 years ago

abradley2 commented 8 years ago

There doesn't seem to be any documentation on the creation of proper save state files.

On the fightcade website it states:

If it is supported and you want it included in the next update, please send us a good savestate file for the game using a pull request or opening an issue to the savestates repository. Make sure the game works fine by playing it in the "Unsupported Games" room first.

It may be helpful if a link is included here to documentation regarding the schema of these files.

You don't need a lot of information :D. Only:

· Is the game supported by the actual version of FBA? · Does it have an interesting simultaneous 2P mode? · It's working on FightCade? Please, note that this is different from the first question. Working on FBA doesn't mean it is going to work with GGPO/FightCade netcode. For example, Snow Bros. doesn't work with the netcode, that's why you need to try it first.

After that, I can make the save state without problem.

I would actually prefer to make the save state file myself if possible, which is why I'm curious as to whether there is documentation for this.

No, there's no official documentation. Just made the savestate with the steps I told you and send it to me (you can attach files here) and I'll check it out. What game are you interested on?

Interested in yoshi's cookie for nes 2p (the SNES version of the game is a little too slow) ran across the game recently and it is one of the best two player games I have ever played. Perfect for beginners and experts. Real gem.
