I am playing master Orion 2 on Retroarch on iOS.

I can save game. but when I try to override older save game with new save. the new content will not be saved.

I can click the old save and rename it. But the new save content will not be saved.

(Referring to the screen shot. I can no longer save any game once the save file slots are filled )

I can over ride the save games initially (when game is first launch from RetroArch)

But after that I can’t.

I suspect I can over ride the first time because the new save file are created in the newly created save game zip file in RetroArch which can over ride the old save game in the dos directory.

but once this RetroArch save game zip file is created. I can’t over ride the saves anymore.

I managed to get it working. instead of loading a zipped up the game.

I load the game without zipping up.

The saving works perfectly now. (because dosbox can modify the directory directly instead of needing to over ride with save zips )
