Convert .sav to .gci?

[mariodude9]

Can I convert .sav states from my Dolphin 4.0.2 to GCI so I can then play it on my Dolphin 5.0?

Also, I'm having problems with my older emulator and controllers in this thread: https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-need-help-badly-with-gamecube-controller-adapter-for-dolphin-4-0-2?pid=430038#pid430038

As far as I know, you can't.  The save state from 4.0.2 won't be compatible with 5.0

Savestates are entirely NOT compatible from 4.0.2 to 5.0. Heck, we break compatibility on them regularly in development releases.

The only way you can get your savestates into 5.0 is to load up your savestate in 4.0.2, do a normal real save to memcard, and then upgrade to 5.0

Hmmm thank you! I'll give that a shot =]
