Save Types

Type	What it keeps
Manual save state	The emulator's exact position when you save.
Auto save state	A state created automatically when autosave is enabled and supported.
In-game save	Progress written by the game's own save feature, such as battery data or disk changes.

Save states depend on the system, core, and game version. Keep an exported in-game save before changing cores, moving progress between emulators, or entering Link Cable or Nintendo DS multiplayer.

Create a Manual Save State

Open the in-game menu, select Save State, and wait for confirmation. If the action is disabled, the current system or session may not support it.

Load a Save

Open Open Saves while playing and choose Manual, Auto, or In-game. Select the save you want to load. Loading replaces the current game position, so save current progress first if you want to keep it.

You can also open Manage saves on your game details page without starting the emulator.

Upload an In-Game Save File

In Open Saves > In-game, select Upload Save File and choose a compatible save, such as .srm or .sav for a cartridge game. Match the game and save format; renaming an incompatible file does not convert it.

Amiga saves can include disk data in a bundle. Follow the Amiga guide for those files.

Export an In-Game Save

Use the game's own save menu and let it finish.
Open Rebit's in-game menu.
Select Export In-Game Save.
Continue past a reminder if shown and wait for confirmation.

This stores progress in Rebit. To keep a separate copy on your device, use the save's download action afterward. Do not assume that saving inside the game alone has finished uploading to your account.

Multiplayer Saves

Link Cable: use Save in the Link Cable drawer after saving in the game. Rollback may pause the group briefly to coordinate the save.
Nintendo DS: export the in-game save when available and use the normal Leave action so saving can finish. Download Play guests do not have a normal cartridge save for the host's game.
Other synchronized modes: use only the enabled save actions. Loading states and changing cores can be disabled; host and guest permissions can differ.

See Link Cable and Nintendo DS Multiplayer.

Download or Delete a Save

Open Open Saves or Manage saves on the game page. Use the download action beside an important save for a backup. Use delete only for files you no longer need.

Deleting a library game also removes its related saves. Download backups first.

Turn Auto Save On or Off

Open Saves in the in-game settings, or Settings > Gameplay. Enable autosave, choose an interval, and set Max Auto Saves. Autosave availability depends on the core and play mode; it does not replace waiting for an important manual save to finish.

Take a Screenshot

Open the in-game menu and select Screenshot. Find the image on the game's Screenshots section or Profile > Media.

View Screenshots

Open a screenshot in the game gallery or your profile's Media tab. Use the viewer controls to browse or close it. Visibility follows the relevant library and account privacy settings.

Delete Screenshots

Use the game gallery's selection controls to select your own screenshots, then choose Delete. See Storage and Pro for other cleanup options.

Record a Video

Select Record Screen in the in-game menu when offered.
If prompted, choose the tab, window, or screen to record and grant permission.
Play the section you want to capture.
Select Stop or the stop-recording control.
Wait for the video download or export to finish.

Availability and audio capture depend on the browser or app. Screen recordings are videos saved through your device's download/export flow. Automatic multiplayer replays are separate and reconstruct supported sessions from recorded gameplay inputs.

Add Cheats Manually

Open Cheats, select Add cheat, enter the description and code, then confirm. The code must match the game release and the core's supported format.

Upload a Cheat File

Open Cheats, select Upload .cht file, and choose your cheat file.

Turn Cheats On or Off

Use the switch beside a cheat in Cheats. Disable codes that cause problems. Cheat support varies by core, and actions may be restricted during multiplayer.

Delete a Cheat

Use the delete action beside a code you no longer want and confirm if asked.
