How to save games?

Unread post by Ggaribaldi »

Hey Folks!

I am pretty new to the MiSTer, was very excited when I bought but had over time several issues - and one hassle for playing games:
I am using MegaAGS and really like to save games. With a few it works, with most it does not. How do you handle this?

Maybe you do not use MegaAGS but copied all ADFs to the Minimig Config and play Amiga games from there?

You have to exit the WHDLoad by normally pressing del. You also have to have the SaveHd mounted as the 2nd drive.

From the AmigaVision Docs

Save Files

Before we start, a quick note on save files:

IMPORTANT: For games with save functionality you MUST quit the game using the DEL key to ensure the save data will be written to “disk”, and thus the SD card. You will lose your save games if you don’t exit the game after also saving in-game!

In the [Options] menu of the launcher you can choose between a few alternative quit key options if the DEL key doesn’t work for you. If set, it will override the preconfigured default Quit key. The active Quit key is displayed on the splash screen shown when a game is loading.
