User Folder - Wii Savegames

[belomeclone]

So... the Wii Savegames are pretty... confusing. Many 001000 folders, and then 5646846 folders. I am sure they are all games I have played, but, I do not know which folder I need and which one I don't.

And sure, I don't NEED to be able to organize any of these files, but I think it'd be nice. For providing backups, or for searching through, or for cleanup and deleting.

So, is this possible? Can we make Dolphin save, say, Wario Land - Shake It to a Wario Land - Shake it folder under User - Wii - Title? Going off the title Dolphin pulls from the DVD?

You can right click a game in your game list and choose "Open Wii save folder", might make it a bit easier to figure out which game is which folder.

Not the issue. My issue is to clarify the folders. In my case, I don't have a game anymore and would like to delete its folder. And, in general, it is an issue. I mean, it's an issue that is so low on the priority list that it'd take 20 years for it to be near the top, but an issue still.

It's especially an issue when you've run into the space limit of the "virtual wii hdd" and new games cannot create save games anymore -_-

It would be better if the user can designate his own path for save games. Thus we wouldn't have to keep copying over save files from a build to another. One unified folder for all builds would also prevent the problem of accidentally overwriting saves.

[StripTheSoul]

that's also a good idea, yeah

If that system is possible, it sounds good. As long as the save files are written properly. Super Mario Galaxy 0,1,2 seems to be the way to organize it (unless we can get 1 2 3 instead of 0 1 2)

But right now I'd settle for just getting the folders named better.
