These are not enforced, but they are encouraged.
Rules:
Just to make sure:
The games will run on other platforms, just fail to run if you have the save file from the deck?
Have you tried an md5 check or anything to make sure the save files aren't somehow being corrupted during sync?
Correct. If I remove the save then the ROM will take me to the tutorial and everything. I hadn't done an md5 check but your first question had me try something else: i removed the save, started a new game on my phone and saved it the first moment I could. Closed retroarch and restarted it on my phone again, and I got the error again, even though the sage was created by that exact retroarch instance. Then i tried the mew save on the deck and it loaded fine. Seems like I just have an issue with retro arch on my other devices but not the save itself.
The word EmuDeck made me do a double take
Are they the saves for the rom or is it a save state? I know saves on something like GBA need to be configured for flash type but idk if the same is needed for DS games.
From the ROM. I've actually not tried a state because I usually don't use them.
This is an interesting point. One of my other devices is my android, so flash, but another is a laptop with an HDD.
