  • Training Mode
    • Input Recording / Playback
      • Player Selection
      • Playback Loop
      • On-Demand Play

With the new Training Mode, you can enable game cheats in offline using RetroArch's .cht file format to adjust game parameters, record, and play back user inputs for practice.

To target a specific player port or set playback loop settings, just hit the "Menu" button (TAB by default) and click on the corresponding button to switch. Player 1 corresponds with Port A, while Player 2 corresponds with Port B. You can also switch players by pressing F9 by default.

To record inputs, hit F1, and hit it again to stop recording. To play back the input, press F2. If the Playback Loop is enabled, the input will be repeated until the Play button is hit again. If it is disabled, playback will be invoked on demand.

All of the Training Mode controls can be assigned to any keyboard key or gamepad input in the Controls settings.
