Transferring really old Wii Saves

**Zee530** · 07-08-2017, 02:59 AM #1

Apologies if this is a basic question but i haven't used Dolphin in ages, so i'm not privy to the central folder system. I'm currently trying to transfer my older save files to the newest dolphin version, i was a able to do this for the GC games without issue but cannot seem to import the Wii saves. I know there is a Wii save import/export option but the older versions i'm trying to transfer from do not have an export option, only import, and the sdcard file is called sd.raw but the newer versions only seem to accept .bin files, pls help.

Just copy the NAND folder (the one that's named Wii and is directly in the user folder) to the new central user folder.

Huh, that was annoyingly easy, thanks.

I've been test driving 5.0 but i tried 5.0-4607 yesterday and 5.0-4662 today, controls in game for both do not seem to work, i'm using a keyboard but nothing works on both GC and Wii games.

Can you post a screenshot of your controller settings?

Here ya go

That's odd... I can't see anything that would make it not work at all.

You're the Dev.

Can you reproduce it on your end?

No, it works just fine for me. (5.0-4662, DInput, keyboard/mouse)

OK, got it working, had to enable Background input. Don't see why that stopped it completely though. Thanks.
