Save State Hotkeys for Neo-Retropad

Hi there! :wave:

I play GBC, NES, and GBA on my android and really love the default Neo-Retropad overlay - I like how simple and unobtrusive it is! So this is just a small update using the Retropad Editor to add extra custom buttons for save/load save state, next/previous save state, and portrait/landscape.

ADDED:

  • Save state
  • Load save state
  • next save state slot
  • previous save state slot
  • Landscape button
  • Portrait button

UPDATED:

  • Rearranged icons using Retropad Editor
  • made landscape/portrait buttons visible

INSTALLATION:

Download Neo-Retropad-Hotkeys

  1. Add contents to a new folder in your Retroarch folder on your Android. I called mine ‘Overlays’
  2. In Retroarch, go to Settings>On-Screen Display>On-Screen Overlay, tap ‘Overlay Preset’ and navigate back up through the parent directories until you find the folder where you saved the new overlay.
  3. Tap ‘neo-retropad-hotkeys.cfg’

SOURCES:

  • Neo-Retropad (Assets)
  • Retropad Editor (Modified the original neo-retropad.cfg)
  • Photopea (used Modern Pictogram and Play-Bold fonts on top of a modified Neo-Retropad blank icon to mimic the same look and style)

Hi there! :wave:

I made some minor updates to the previous version - AND added a new overlay option with all of the save state buttons on top! So now we have a (renamed) ‘hotkeys-top’ and ‘hotkeys-bottom’! Choose whichever you like :blush:

Download the new version with both overlay options here: Neo-Retropad-hotkeys v3.0

Thank you! :heart:
