Saving Games
I may just be a moron, but upon looking through the guides on the main forum I can't find a way to allocate hard drive space to the emulator. Ergo, it won't let me save, telling me that there is insufficient free space. Nor will it let me save states.

I am running the most recent version of PPSSPP, and I am using Windows 7 64bit.

Can anyone help a noob out?

RE: Saving Games
Don't run PPSSPP from Program Files/Program Files (x86)/places where you have no write permissions to?

If you absolutely must run it from such places, run it as administrator, but I highly discourage this.

If that's not the cause, then we'll need a few more details:
Do you have free space on the drive you're running the emulator on? Basic question, but still good to know.

I've got it running from a folder on my desktop, so I'd hope that wouldn't be an issue. Running as admin didn't work either.

And yes, I've got nearly 50 gigs available on that drive.

RE: Saving Games
Hm..what game(s) are you trying to play, then?

Does it help to run the emulator from a different place, say C:\Games(or whatever you have your Windows main drive as)?

Not pictured, me pressing 'x' repeatedly.

In any case, yeah, I am playing Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together

And I suppose I can try running the emulator from a different location.

And.. now it saved state. Well fml. Apparently I had to run it from /games. Sighhh. Thanks for the help!

RE: Saving Games
That's weird that you can't save on your desktop, btw. I did a quick test and didn't seem to have a problem saving after the intro battle..ah well. Enjoy the emulator. Smile
