Hi,

i have the following Question/Problem.
I wanted to have all files in my main Dolphin directory, so i have created the portable.txt
and started and stopped Dolphin.
Then i have copied everything from my Documents folder over to my main folder into user.

I have also set the MemCard path for GC to my new folder (Main folder/Users/GC) and pointed it to the
Memcards.

Still for whatever reason Dolphin is creating from time to time new MemCards in the previous Documents folder ???
So, i went ahead and used the registry entry to ensure Dolphin is using my main folder only.
Just checked earlier on and again, 2 Memcards in my documents folder.

So, how can i ensure, that Dolphin is only using the GC Memcards, in the folder i want it to use ?


And the second question is, how is it defined what region the MemCard is created (EUR/USA...) in ?
is it defined by the GC System language or by the Region of the game i am playing.
The problem is, when my brother in Law (American) went back home, he left all his GC games with me,
so i have a nice collection (That i have completely dumped in the meantime) of USA and EUR GC games.
I have now two sets of MemCards (EUR A & B, USA A & B)

So what is the best way to manage the different regions, memcard wise...

What is the best easiest way to understand what GCI is ? It is just a savestate format ???
I really don't know, but i have read the advice now several times, to use instead of Memcard GCI-folder.
That's why i am asking...



And one last issue, not Memcard or Memcard path related....


Why is it not possible to use XFB in real, when using stereoscopic view side-by-side at the same time ?
Whenever i enable XFB real, Dolphin automatically disables stereoscopic...

Dolphin determines it based on the game's region.

It's basically the format used for storing one save file (you see each GCI file as separate data in the GameCube memory card manager). Do note that these regular kinds of saves are completely different from savestates.
