How do I save settings in Project 64?

[RIP-Felix]

I recently installed Project 64 v2.1. There are many improvements I would like to take advantage of, however it will not remember my controller settings after exiting the program. I don't remember having this problem in v1.6.

Basically I'm using a PS3 controller with the motioninjoy driver utility. I wrote a simple Auto hot key script to automate opening the application and enabling the controller profile. This script was exported to .exe and set to run before Project 64.

In project 64 I have to go into the controller setup and select my controller from the drop down menu. This was automatically selected in v1.6. Does anyone know if there is an obscure setting somewhere to force the same controller port as the previous selection. Or an explanation why it worked fine before?

There are other settings that don't appear to be saving also, like my video selections. Every time I onen a ROM it applies 4:3 aspect ratio when I selected stretch previously. EDIT: I just realized that they are saved for the game you are currently running. They are game specific, meaning I will have to change them in menu for every game. Unless you guys know of a way to apply them universally.

Sorry to bump, but I just resolved my own problem. The Auto hot key application I was running had a sleep time of 100ms from when the application loaded to when a key press is sent. I had to adjust that to 3000ms to get it to recognize the controller first, then enable the profile. I must have a different version of motioninjoy than when I originally wrote the script. It take longer now to recognize the controller. It's kind of a let down actually, now I have to wait 3 seconds for the script to finish as opposed to like 300ms before.
