I have been trying to play an super smash bros. brawl save on dolphin. So i extracted the save using savegame extractor, and I have been looking around the internet and have seen that you need a data.bin file?
Well when I look at my sd card where the save was extracted the files i find are:
advsv0.bin
advsv1.bin
autosv0.bin
autosv1.bin
banner.bin
collect.vff
net0.bin
net1.bin
wc24pubk.mod
As you can see I have no data.bin file and have no idea what I need to do.
Any help?
Depending whether you run the PAL (Europe) version or NTSC (North America), you can head to
http://www.wiisave.com/?cid=181, look well for SSBB save complete, download the file, execute Dolphin.exe, head for Tools->Wii Save Import, select the file. It will ask you whether you want to overwrite previous save or not, if you have one.
After that -- you can play.
And -- if this is not what you meant al all, please reply whether you play the PAL or NTSC version, so I can look into this and help you... (if I am not asleep already)...
Well my wii save is from a PAL and the iso i got (since i couldnt dump it) is NTSC so im gonna go get a PAL iso now.
So ok but the part I dont know is how to get the save I got from my wii and play it in dolphin. I think I need a data.bin file but as you saw when I extracted save from wii I didnt get one.

Read this thoroughly.
And about what you said, I suggest being careful, even if you own the game, it is actually not allowed to obtain the game via 'other' sources, but okay...
If, in the future you need to legally obtain games, you might want to purchase a GDR LG drive, the specific ones are noted in the forum here;
You could alternatively dump them to a SD card, using Wii Disc Dumper.
I hope my reply was helpful.
Edit: There is another simple way without much hassle. Look at the screenshot I submitted and copy the save files you 'dumped' to
the folder as seen in the screenshot. Look closely to the file structure. I am saying one important thing, I sincerely ask you to legally dump
Brawl PAL version to your PC. The save files won't work as you already said you use NTSC...
Post Scriptum: if you don't understand the screenshot; go to the folder you have Dolphin included, go to user / wii / title / 00010000 / 52534250 / data - and copy the files you
talked about when you created this thread.
ok thanks
I have read about it over the internet that as long as you have the game, it is legal to download games off websites.
If you dont have the game thats when it is illegal, ive noticed this statement a lot around the internet.
Thank you though for your concern!

You're welcome. At least you don't belong to those vile teens that have no knowledge, download Dolphin and start flooding the forums, asking for support and even having courage to ask where to obtain the games on the Net. The Dolphin devs try hard to develop the emulator, in this way it's like harassing them. By legally obtaining the dumps and playing Dolphin supports them. There may even be a day when the devs just say 'this is it', 'we stop developing Dolphin'. Just because of the piracy that clouds around in this forums. Good that the mods effectively punish them pirates...
Erm thanks again I guess? xD
Im currently downloading the PAL which will take about 6 hours... oh well
How much is one of the drives?
I'm guessing I will not be able to afford it though since im 14 though xD
The drives cost around 25 $.
hmm, well I think I have around that amount of money but will consider the drive later on if I decide to put any more wii games on the pc.
Again thanks for help and hope to speak to you soon!
If the mods are a bit merciful towards you, we will.
Don't worry
