Doom 32X Resurrection - v3.0bb.xdelta.zip

Please try this ROM patch + drop this file into MEGA/SAVE directory on your SD cart so that the game would be able to detect an old Everdrive model: https://github.com/viciious/d32xr/raw/master/extras/megasave/D32XR.32x

Be sure to reset your MED using the button on the MED. I'm not sure if your MED is old enough, but old models only saved the "save ram" to SD upon reset via the button on the MED. Pushing the console reset button or cycling the power results in any save ram being lost. At some point, krikzz changed the design so that writing to the save ram actually saved to SD cart RIGHT THEN, but I have no idea which model MED and which rev OS this occurred on.

My old MED (no X at all, just MED) is one of those that needs to be reset via the button on the MED to save the save ram to SD. My new MED Pro does not.
