Saving Mame Control edits

[FLAPS]

Hey, this will probably sound like a newbie question, but to be fair it is, but how do you save new control layouts on Mame?

I know how to change them by going through the Tab menu but I dont know how to save them so when I last changed them and closed Mame the controls went back to the old settings.

Like I said it's probably a total newbie question but still I'd be thankful for any help.

Make sure you don't pause the game when setting the controls through the tab menu.  Leaving it unpaused will save the cfg settings.

A better way would be to set up specific ctrlr files.
