SNES core creates .srm file in the roms folder as soon as I open a game and when a save state is saved the .state file is placed inside the roms folder #11

This behavior is filling the roms folder with extra files. I think this behavior was not in the earlier versions. Is this change made so that the save files will not corrupt anymore? Is there a way to change it so these files would be in a different folder?

Thank you very much for the great work!

I just looked and the file is set up correctly. Make sure you have created a folder in the root directory called "saves" (this is a new step from v1.5 of the add-on pack and beyond) and that you're using the most recent version of the retroarch-nes.cfg file and the sections/emulators/06 snes9x2010 (SNES) file. Once properly set up, all of your save files will go into that "saves" folder.

Let me know if the issue keeps happening, I'll leave this open for now.

Creating the saves file fixed it. I had updated it from the 1.4 just by looking at the instructions in the Changelog and had not seen that step in the README. Thanks.
