you need to copy \User\Wii to the new rev to keep your wii save games, and alternatively \User\GameConfig to keep speed hacks and... game configs.

No one here is really answering your question, but
/user/gc/ /user/wii/ Those are the only 2 folders you need to backup to keep saved games. As for gamecube, if you want to make life easier, you should put the memory cards in a folder not anywhere in the emulator itself and whenever you get a new rev you just set the path to that folder. 03-23-2010, 12:50 AM
Yeah, but Bacon... The save game are updating when u save a new game so you won't have the memory card you used for the last time...

No problem, but like I said, you can just put your memory card file in a folder somewhere else on your hard drive, and when you download the new revision, all you do is set the path to the memory card to that new folder you made, and every revision will use the same card. I've never ever had a problem with memory card corruption, when it did get corrupted all I did was go to the memory card manager thing and click "Fix Checksum" and the save was un-corrupted. (Backup the memory card first before doing so just in case) |
