The mame emulator requires you to press LShift and F7 then any key you choose to save the game state to that key. Then to load that state i would need to press F7 and then press the key I picked. What I'm trying to do is use autoHotKey to auto Press LShift & F7 at the same time then have it Press 1 to save the state to key 1 all when i press F7 or any other key. Then i would like to be able to load by being able to press F5 or any other key which would involve having AutoHotKey press F7 then 1. I've been looking through forums on autohotkey but so far nothing seems to have any effect in RLauncer. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Use the save feature in Pause.

Got it working with mame but wont work for MamePlus... they both use the same ahk and their ini files are the same in regards to saving so is there a reason the save feature in pause wont show up for mameplus? Does it just not work with mameplus?

It is possible that your mamePlus version is compiled to only accept raw input keys.
I believe that you need a mame compiled with direct input to accept simulated AHK key presses.

Turns out I didnt have keys setup in the global Emulators.ini for save/load, and I also didnt have a direct input version of mameplus. Now everything works accept the screenshots for the saves are coming out black. anyone know why this might be? Pasted my mame plus global emulators.ini code if it matters for the screenshots.

[Mame Plus]
Emu_Path=..\Emulators\mameplus x64-0.167\mamep64.exe
Rom_Extension=zip|7z|bin|rar|cue|bin|iso|vb|ngp|rom
