Hi all, I’ve recently set up a retropie installation using retroarch, and I’m having some trouble with ROM saves. What’s happening is that if a rom is left running for too long (30 minutes+), and I exit out to the main emulation station menu, it freezes, with a black screen and white dot in the middle. Any save file updates are lost and I need to start the game over from the previous save point. To get around this, I’ve enabled save states and an autosave interval, so that I can load to the previous save state if the save files fail.
The problem I have now is if I want to reset a rom to get back to the game’s main menu. It looks like I can do it with a keyboard, but I’m using two snes controllers and would hate to leave one plugged in all the time. I currently have the controllers set up to use start+select to exit to the emulation station menu. Is there any way to set up something similar to reset a rom?
For instance, to get to the emulation station menu I have: input_enable_hotkey_btn = “8” input_exit_emulator_btn = “9”
Is there anything that would allow me to do something like: input_reset_rom_btn = “5”
Thanks for any help!
