ZNES Help....

[Dreddz]

You lot dont know what I mean. If nI wanted to turn off my comp, if i go back, will it still be there. Everytime I press on Chrono Trigger. It starts a new game. I want to get back to my place that I was before.......
And im using Snes9x now btw.....

Can't help you there. But if you do go back to Zsnes all you do is what Dudius says(or so I assume). Hold f4 and select the state. after it was saved of course. It will remain there.


If you use the in game save points. Next time you run that room it will be there saved into the rom.. just like they save into the cartridge.

but when I save states, whenever I play the game again, it is gone.
I really need help, my laptop is burning up, i need to shut it down quick.
When I start Chrono Trigger again, it plays from the beginning. So if I go to load in the screen, my save will be there
I need help as fast as possible. My laptop is burning me....

Baisically, All I want to do it shut down my comp, have a life. Come back and be able to start where i left off. i know how to save the games state. Its just when i load chrono trigger again. its gone and i have to start over......

EDIT : No worries people, I did it. Thanks to all that helped....

I don't understand how this problem can exist unless you can't write to the HD or if you're running your game off of a cd or something. when you savestate it'll create a file called chrono.zs1 or chrono.zs2-9 depending on which slot you're using. and when you do an ingame save it'll create another file, but I don't remember the extension for it. (this is zsnes by the way, but snes9x works pretty much the same)

So try saving your state (F2 in zsnes and Shift+f1-9). Then look at whatever folder your rom is and look to see if it's created another file. if it did, you should be able to load it (F4 in zsnes and F1-9 in snes9x). If not then I suggest deleting the emulator and all it's files and your rom and downloading them again. If that doesn't work then I'm not sure how to help you.
