I'm on an O3ds xl. Used both most current stable and nightly. Both do the same thing. Also using the cias. It exits to 3ds home screen. If I load content and pick the ROMs they run fine but missing a save file after saving a game. I can save state and load the save state through load content but not by scanning directories. I have also accidentally upgraded to 11.3.00 not knowing there was a new system update. Good thing I updated luma3DS before hand.

I can load ROMs through the "Load Content" on the main menu, I have to look through the files and get to my NES ROMS folder then choose the ROM I want to load. If I scroll over to Import Content and scan that folder (or any folder for that matter) I get "An error has occurred..." message that reloads to the 3ds home screen. The ROMs play fine but no saved game files created and I have to use the save state from within the ROM to save my game.
I am using Libretro QuickNES 1.4.1 1.0 WIP f7238df
Do I need to have the retroarch_3ds.CIA installed also? I installed it but it just gives a black screen. I tried other emulators but my games didn't play well in them so I didn't bother trying to scan directories. If I have hacked ROMs will those still show up? I have them named after the original game that was hacked. Take for instance I have a hacked version of metroid and left the name alone but it is actually Metroid Rogue Dawn. It plays great so no issue there, just cant make the directory stick.
OK I figured out my problem...I was not downloading the newest updates (which were at the bottom of the list on the site)...I still have to download some thumbnails for the games I have and add them in manually. I have not figured out how to add the games to a collection but I was able to add my directory "NES ROMS" to the list under load content. I wish this would find and download the information for the roms like on pc but I digress and will say good night... Thanks guys for helping a half senile old man figure this crap out.
