Yep, it's an ongoing thing so if you ever find a case of a game which is supposed to be able to read another game's data but can't, feel free to report that so it can get added, once its been identified its relatively low-tech to make those updates.This article details everything you should need to get started using PCSX2. I suppose there is some reason here to support at least slot swapping, point taken. Correct me, if I am wrong? (It's only one game, but, but that is a corner case example.) I may be mistaken, but not all games allow you to read from the second memory card? One of those exceptions (not working with 'Memory Card Folders'), SSX on Tour, chooses the card slot automatically, slot 1, and does not allow the player select the memory card in slot 2.

The raw files on the PS2 memory card = the raw files on a PCSX2 folder memory card. For a folder type memory card you would do a direct copy and paste of the folder itself, no packaging or archiving.

PSU pastes from uLaunchELF are a package format used with software like MyMCPlus for importing to a file type memory card. Honestly better to do this here since at least it'll be in permanent writing for any other curious souls, since I'm mostly hitting technical details and not your specific setup. I did not know that! I did not understand that issue fully. Filters are how we enable that cross-game visibility. Correct me, if I am wrong? (It's only one game, but that is a corner case example of why I need this feature.)Īs for the filters issue, that's an ongoing item where we are always hunting for cases of games which let you load save data from another game. I may be mistaken, but not all games allow you to read from the second memory card? One of those exceptions (not working with 'Memory Card Folders'), SSX on Tour, chooses the card slot automatically, slot 1, and does not allow the player to select the memory card in slot 2. You can use your second memory card slot to hold a standard 8 MB file card, for those few exceptions. I don't mean to blow up PCSX2's github with support questions. Maybe I need to convert to another format for it to read? You can pm me too. I pasted my Ape Escape 2 'PSU' file inside my memory card folder, 'BASLUS-20685', and it did not read it. Paste it to a USB drive, then paste that into your folder memory card and it will just start working.

Also, how does one import saves (from a PS2 memory card or online save) using folders? I don't know how to do that, but I have a lot of old saves, that prevent me from using this feature.

But, they seem to be sometimes glitchy, Meta: Compatibility issues with folder memory cards #3918 and : Tracking memcard filters (Folder Memcards) #4870.

I just tried memory card folders! I was unfamiliar with them.

I am not saying create a new 8 mb card for each game, just reuse cards.

I only need a 32 mb and 8 mb card to house all my game saves (40 mb total).

Folder memory cards generate a 8 MB card on the fly and 'filter' their data so only the running game and other compatible games are added to the card. Having separate memory cards for individual games is a waste of space on your file system and unless someone gives a strong argument for it, I don't see a reason why this would ever be a thing.Ĭonsider using folder memory cards. PSU/.MAX/.CBS saves into a Memory Card folder, and fixes the games that do not work with Memory Card Folders, #3918, this issue can be closed as well, as Memory Card Folders will work fine for all games.) Examples What it would look like (Alternatively, if PCSX2 supports importing. An example of this is '007: Agent Under Fire'.Įncounter a game that cannot read from memory card 'Slot 2' and does not work with a 'Memory Card Folder', Meta: Compatibility issues with folder memory cards #3918, such as 'SSX: On Tour'. They will not recognize anything higher, such as a 32 mb card, and can not read from memory card 'Slot 2'. Play an early PS2 game, that only supports 8 mb memory cards. This would solve manually swapping memory cards everytime, when switching between certain games that need it: See the picture below for what it would look like.) Reason Choosing from the already available memory cards, under custom game profiles. (NOT creating a new memory card for each game. The ability to select which memory card is in use for a game, using custom game profiles ('Properties').
