Will I be able to move my save states from v.9-6 to this?

the_randomizer · February 14th, 2011, 03:08

No. Use native saves from the previous version. Savestates are not cross-compatible.

Yeah, that's the problem. Native saves won't work for some random reason. I made a thread for it on this forum....

Rateiosu · February 17th, 2011, 20:10

I feel this is a wonderful release and on-time. This emulator has really improved a lot lately.
Thanks for the news ^^

What part of my post didn't you understand? SAVESTATES ARE NOT CROSS COMPATIBLE DUE TO CHANGES MADE IN THE DESMUME CODE.
