Using the save state feature when playing with a mod does absolutely nothing! Is there any alternative means I can use to save, e.g. something in the game files or on my computer? (The mod itself doesn't appear to have a save function, yet recommends that I "save often".)

Sega Mega Drive and Genesis Classics seems to crash quite a lot for me, and I worry about losing my progress from the last hour and a half or so.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! :-)
