Savegames lost, careful on bios switching.

Almost skipped a beat, suddenly all my savestates were gone, traced it back to being the arm7 bios i copied, seems like copying the arm7 bios for encripted roms changes something and all your savestates separate from the savestates made in the other bios that was being used.

Luckily i just moved the arm7 bios and my savestates came back, a warning would be nice when detecting a new bios. :? Or at least a note in the faq, if there isnt.

It's not that the savestate files are gone, they're just not listed because you need the same BIOS configuration as when they were made.

I think we're going to be changing it to list the files but give an error explaining this when you try to load it.
