What's New

  • Neo Geo .neo RetroAchievements support is now content-based — .neo cartridges are matched by their actual ROM data instead of their filename (via an upstream rcheevos change, rcheevos #517), so achievement identification no longer depends on a file keeping its original arcade name.
  • Cloud Sync now runs automatically in the background at startup and right after you sign in, so your latest saves are downloaded before you launch a game.
  • A "Syncing saves…" indicator appears in the status bar while a background sync is running.
  • Memory cards are compressed before upload, so they take only a fraction of the space in your private saves repository.

What's Fixed

  • Memory cards and console save files now back up through Cloud Sync. Previously only cartridge battery saves were covered; the cards and save data written by disc and handheld systems — GameCube, Dreamcast, PSP, Nintendo 3DS, Sega Saturn, Nintendo DS, Neo Geo, and more — are now included.
  • The background save sync now starts reliably at launch; a startup timing issue could previously stop it from running, so the "Syncing saves…" status and the pre-launch save download now work as intended.
