How do you save the settings config in smsplus 0.2B ?

Isn't it supposed to save automatically when you exit the settings menu ?
I can't get it to work at all, do I need to do something special ?
Savestats in games work fine though.
Using VMA 1 in controller 1 with 80 blocks left.

Thanks.

Hmmm... i think it does.

some vmus do and don't work nice with emus. Have you had previous success with this discs emu before? i don't know, Try re-burning, try another controller and vmu, and maybe try another version of this, and do try other emus and games to seee if they save ok with it too. Sometimes all the vmu needs is for the saves to be deleted.

Nester(6.0 and up) works fine for example. The odd thing is that the savestats work excellent, it is just the config thing, argh. Oh, well I'll keep trying, thanks.

You are sure that you are using version 0.2b and not 0.2DDD because that version had the bug that it didn't save the screen position. If you are using 0.2b (see credits screen for the version number), than try to have an VMU inserted before starting up the Dreamcast. Go to options and than press B to go back. Look at the VMU and see if the saving icon blinks. Tell me if it works.

Sorry seems like I was using v 0.2DDD afterall.
Better try 0.2b(is that the best version ?).
Thanks.

0.1b have that bug.It doesn't save the screen position,if it's the only thing you change.That means you can ''fix'' it,by adjusting the position as you want,and without leaving settings screen,you change another option,like Paint Backdrop.It'll force the emu to save screen settings alongside the other option you changed.But 0.2ddd doesn't save any settings at all.Save state,SRAM and favorites work,though.

AFAIK 0.1b was never released public.
