Automatic Savestates
It coul be VERY useful to have a keyboard combination
to automatically do a savestate, as the same way as screenshots Something like this: i press CTRL+END+S and a savestate "image name"+_001+".uss" is automatically writed to disk in the savestates directory ![]() What do you think ? ![]() |

Now that you mentioned it, I'd prefer an easly configurable quick key.
Like on ZSNES, when I press R2 on me PS1 joypad I quick-save, and L2 is for quick-load. |

@5h00n4y: There are two types of Save State and Restore State input assignments (quick and normal) available in the Input configuration panel isn't that enough?

Holy...!
WinUAE can ACTUALLY do this?? I've been wondering about this for months! Ever since a mater turned me on to Amiga and WINUAE, I've been wondering about this. Like, in Kega Fusion, Zsnes and Mame save-states are all easily split-second accessible trough quick-keys, but in WINUAE I could only find it in the Input Config panel, by having to press F12 and then going into the right menu. So there's actually a key-combo eh? But why is it **THREE** keys? Does it have something to do with keyboard emulation in WINUAE or something? Is it possible to change the combo, and set it to a specific key or keys? Likey Shooney said... it would be really nice to be able to map it to your gamepad, so you just press a single button to save, and then another to load. Very fast, very comfortable, very organic. Is it possible? Also, I've been looking trough the documentation for this key-combo for some time, but I never found it, where does it say WINUAE can do this? Since I guess it's a pretty requested thing, maybe it can be made more clearer for newbies like me? |

You can map the save states to another key or a joybutton. Check Input --> Configuration#1.

Hi Predabot,
you can use the Input window to configure buttons on your joystick/pad to quicksave and load ![]() ![]() The Input panel is very powerful once you know how it works ![]() |

And you can i.e. map Joy1/Joy2 Up to joypad buttons. Play Turrican like a console game, hehe.

Not to forget the very nice 'surround and autofire at the same time' trick for Turrican
