Memory card always gets "wiped"

I don't know what is happening, or why, but every time I launch a gamecube game in Dolphin, it always tells me to create a new memory card save, even though I have said saves in the user/GC folder (MemoryCardA.USA and MemoryCardB.USA). Every time I load, it happens. My Wii NAND is fine, but the raw memory card saves, Dolphin always behaves like I deleted it when I didn't. Maybe my deciding to use unofficial builds is what's causing this, I don't know. No specific gamecube game does, all of them do it. I had a save with several things unlock in Soul Calibur 2, but when I updated with a newer emulator build, it acted as though I erased the save, but it's still there in the folder. Is this a know issue with newer builds?

Dolphin version: 3.5-1056 GLSL Master Build x64

No changes were made to the directory locations, specifications in signature (updated)

Again, the saves are there, but Dolphin thinks they've been "deleted".

I think Dolphin might be looking at the wrong Memory card file. Try this out, it might fix it:

Options > Configure > GameCube > Device Settings > Slot A > ... and browse to your MemoryCardA.USA.raw file.

Now start the game.

Well, I see no reason why not, after all, I finally have a machine that can actually RUN Gamecube games.
You're referring to 3.5-1060 from http://dolphin-emu.org/download/ right?

I'll try that. Thanks!

Looks like it was the emulator simply not finding the location, so I re-selected it and now the files load fine. Thanks!
