[SOLVED] MAME settings not saving in new Installer Script Version...
  • casiokid
    Hey guys, I recently did a fresh install of Raspbian and then ran the new PiMame Installer script. Everything is working great, but I noticed that the high scores are not saving and neither are the "per game" input settings (P1 Left, P2 Down, etc...). I know this is probably fixed with a few simple lines in advmenu.rc or advmame.rc, but I'm not sure where to look...can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Thank you!

    SOLVED. I realized that the "pi" user id didn't have read write access to the ".advance" folder or it's contents.

    For anyone else trying to solve this, drop down into the console and use

    sudo chown pi /home/pi/.advance
    sudo chmod 770 /home/pi/.advance

    make sure you dont accidentally put a / on the end of the folder name like I did first time :D

    Changes have been made to the installer. Run update.sh to fix it. Thanks Cramps!
