    Default Save State/Memcard Conversion Help (PC Emulator -> PSP)

    Hi! I was wondering if it is at all possible to convert the memcard files for the PSXFin emulator or the .psv files for save states to a psp with CFW 6.60 Gen-D3. I would really like to continue my game that i started playing on my PC on my PSP. Google really isnt helping me find any answers...

    Please help me, thanks!

    You can convert saves from the Memory Card(.mcr), but not the savestates(.psv).

    Which game was it? Also, 6.60 GEN-D3?


    and you, stop it.

    Download CWCheat, and extract it to your computer.
    - Copy all files inside the INSTALL\seplugins folder into your PSP seplugins folder(if you don't have one, just copy the seplugins from the INSTALL folder into the root of your PSP)
    - Next, copy your pSX memory card(.mcr) to the \seplugins\cwcheat\mc, then rename it according to the Game ID(SLUS_00726 or SLUS_90029), and add -0 at the end, e.g SLUS_00726-0
    - Then, enable the cwcheat.prx through Recovery Menu.
    - Run your Brave Fencer Musashi EBOOT(I assume you already done this by now)
    - After the game load, and past the PS logo, press the Select button on your PSP for 3 seconds to open CWCheat menu
    - Scroll down to 'Manage Memory Cards', make sure the 'Currently selected memory card file' has the same filename with the GAME ID at the top(ignore -0)
    - Choose to 'Load Memory Card 1 from Memory Stick'
    - If the memory card was renamed correctly, the Last operation should shown up as OK!! instead of errors.
    - Select Save Memory Card 1 to Memory Stick to complete the process.
    - Exit the menu (by pressing O twice)
    - Then, load your game.

    Try disable any plugins you have and lower your CPU Clock(or set it to default).
    Also, if you haven't, run the game with Popsloader.

    The game went back to XMB, not crash or anything is it?

    Can you remake the EBOOT file? try using SLPS-01156 as the Game ID.

    I forgot you use 5.50 GEN-D3, which I don't have, so I can't test it thoroughly.
    But, if you want, you can update to the latest CFW, and see if that makes any differences.

    Start the game from the XMB with R trigger held in

    This will let you pick an alt popsloader if needs be

    It's fine on 3.71... or so a compat list said

    If it's not there then you should be able to install it on your firmware, though I admit I don't remember how

    Edit seen as you have poploader anyway (check and see what is available)

    If not though backup the SEPLUGINS folder then try the attached

    For the Snes, just copy the actual save(.srm) into the /PSP/GAME/SNES9X/SAVES folder on your PSP.

    Then launch your game, it should be able to read the save you have copied, as long the rom has the same file name with the save.

    The save states are different filetypes on the zsnes and snes9x. I still tried what you said but it didn't work. For the zsnes its ZS#, and for the snes9x its ### FILE. Is there any way this can work?

    Have you really read my previous post? to use your saves from PC emulator on PSP, you need to use the actual saves(.srm), not savestates(.zs#, .00#).
