You need to be in 'emulation' mode for those options to be available. Start playing a ROM and then press 'Tab' key; the options will now be available. When you think about it, it makes sense; game properties and cheats are specific to a game, so you can't edit them unless you're actually playing a game You don't need a stella.pro file for newer versions of Stella; all the required info is built into the application. The stella.pro file is used to override the built-in ROM properties. Basically, only developers will ever really have a need for it. And Stella will generate it automatically when required. Essentially, you don't have to worry about it. Just make sure Stella can find your ROMs (by navigating to your ROMs folder within Stella, or setting the default ROM folder in 'Config Files'), and just click 'Play' to start a game. Hehehe.. I feel like a total idiot now. Thanks so much for your time! It works perfectly. I figured you could look at rariety stats when you weren't actually playing a particular rom, but I guess that is not how it works. Is this something to easily implement in the future, or would it be too much of a pain? Thanks again.

Hmm.. I have read the instructions and saw info about this "stella.pro" file, but I don't have it for any rom. I reinstalled Stella just to make sure and no other luck as well. Any ideas? Thanks for your time!

Hello Everyone, I am new to the boards, but not new to emulation. Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but I am trying to figure out why the "Game Properties" and "Cheat" functions on the new Stella are grayed out. I have all the roms in the default directory, but I can't figure it out. Perhaps I am missing some sort of text files with info or something that it tries to output? Thanks, Telex
