How Do You Save In Gngeo2x?

[airwolf]

I was wondering, is there a save feature in gngeo2x for GP2X? I have the latest version and I dont see anything in the readme. Sorry if this is a noob question....

Save as in... savestate?

In any case, I don't think there is any feature that saves what is stored or savesates (yet...)

I don't remember exactly how, but there was a way to save using NeoRageX on the PC. The Gneo2x looks a lot like that one (dip switches, ect) so mabye it would work the same way if anyone can remember it. H.G.

I think the dipswitch menu is neogeo native... I believe it is in the bios. You can find that in mame, too.

I have a few games Neo Driftout, Last Blade series(So far) that allow you to write to a "memory card" after you let the continue timer run out. On those games it saves your high score and the level your failed to beat its not exactly a savestate and it only works on games that supported the option but it does work.

Don't know if thats what you mean but there you go.

Yes, some games like Neo Turf Masters allow you to save your game to 'memory card' and continue from where you left off. Otherwise you'll have to play until you beat the game.

You have to remember that these games were intended to be played in an arcade environment, so they're almost always designed with a short lifespan in mind. I don't think there are many games on the Neo Geo that should take you more than 30-60 mins to complete in one sittng (and using loads of continues). Save states are pretty low on the wishlist for me...
