I need help! My VBAGX won't save any of my games. I use the in-game save feature to save my file and everything. This is not specific to one game either, it's with all of them.

try a different version...

did you make a folder for the saves on your SD card?

Either you don't have a save folder, or you have your save folder in the wrong directory.

I looked in my SD card and I have a folder in the root called vbagx. It has a roms folder and saves folder. In roms, I have all my .gba files. In saves, I have a few .sav files for the games I've played and saved. They're in there, I don't know if they have any data or not, but they're in there. I have my load and save method in VBAGX set to SD. I don't see what the problem is.

Are you loading your in-game save file before you start a game?

No, I just select the .gba file and load it. Is that the problem? If so, how do I select my save?

That would be fine if you're loading a save that you made in the game. If you're trying to load a save state, I believe you must load that save state first.

I am trying to load a save file made in game...not a state.

Then what you're doing should work. What are you using to load ROM's (ex. SD card, USB Gecko...)?

I load my ROMs from my SD card

have you tried a different version?

Where can I get older versions?

hmmm... IDK... I have a few... let me know which version you have, and I'll send you a zip of the older versions I have.

I'm using v1.0.4

Great! Now I'm having problems with 1.0.5!

For me, updating to 1.0.5 solved all my problems!

Delete your 1.0.4 xml file. It's somewhere in your saves folder.

too late. I've already downgraded back. Problem solved.

I'm hitting this same problem in vbagx 1.0.5... using in-game save (not save states), /vbagx/saves is present; I can see/load save files that were made some time ago, but no new ones can be created. Deleted the old xml file, uninstalled & reinstalled vbagx through homebrew browser...

I'll try downgrading to an older version... was this ever verified to be a bug / is a fix pending for a future version?
