(dream neo) how to save scores and progress?

Post by Sax20 »

Hi, someone know how to save my progress, mapping control or high scores in this neo geo cd emulator from Ian Micheal?

I write in a post two days ago, but maybe here has more visibility. I'm new in the emulation world of Dreamcast and I'm learning a lot of things, but some things are a little dispersed.

And thanks for all the info, material upload in this website, and people keeping the last sega console with so much live.

If the game has a data save part it will ask you and then will save to the vmu

Hi Ian! thank you so much for your games

I know that, but when I turn off my dreamcast, all progress is gone... I don't know why. I have a vmu with a lot of space, but I can't save anything, no progress, scores or control mapping....

I use clone gdemu

check to see if there is a save file on the vmu if there is not enff space it will just not save it does not check.. it does not save control mapping let me know what game or version of the emulator as there has been many beta versions .. Still not done or a final release

is crossed swords 2 from your topic "perfect conversions" but with metal slug 2 turbo (download from the post of an user here, from dream neo too), and with other games the same thing happen (from dream neo too)

I have 49 free blocks in my vmu.

it always say: backup memory not formatted

thanks!! even I format a VMU now, 200 free blocks, play crossed swords 2, get a score, put initials, save... and nothing happens, when I turn off my dreamcast don't load anything, and the VMU still has 200 free blocks.


sometimes in other VMU the save file appear (18 blocks, I don't know from which game is it, but it say dream neo) but don't work, don't save anything, like it wasn't there.

if you need me to test anything, help will be a pleasure for me.
