Title: More MameWah - Error and deletes SNAP file...
Post by: gndprx on June 19, 2003, 12:09:26 pm
Haven't found reference to this yet, so I don't know if it's just me or not.

MameWah appears to occasionally give a run time error when exiting a game (any emulator) and then deletes the snap file completely from the snap directory for the emulator.

Any thoughts as to why this happens?  I spent quite some time creating snaps and they are systematically being removed on me.

Thanks in advance!

That sounds nasty  :-\

The only time MAMEWAH will delete a snap, is if you are using the snapshot renaming feature.  If a snapshot already exists, it will delete it and then rename the new one to this filename.  Otherwise, it will just rename the snap accordingly.

I guess you must be using this feature?  Have you included the full path as well as the filename?
