Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Tried to post in Wii discussion but it wouldn't let me, does anybody have a save file/state for mario galaxy 2 with all the maps unlocked?

This was the top result when I googled it. Should work with Dolphin's Wii Save Importer so long as you've at least created an empty save on the NAND.

It says  "failed to import save files" .

edit: It says it successfully imports it, but when I launch SMG2 the game says "dolphin file canot be used because the data is corrupted" and there is no save file at all.

You have to run the game, make a save file, then import the save over the save. You may need to do a checkNAND to repair the NAND if you imported it without having a savefile. This is the same thing that happens on console.

Can you explain how to do that please?

I already had a save, but after "successfully importing" the save, once I get into the game it says [color=#000000]"dolphin file canot be used because the data is corrupted" and erases any save files[/color]

Edit: I did tools>check NAND and it repaired it. But I have the same problem still

Have you tried a different savefile? Maybe the one you chose is corrupted?

That's the only EU SMG2 save I've been able to find. There are a few for US, but my version for dolphin is EU.

I have about 20-30 green stars to go before collecting them all. I could share that but it sounds like you want a fully completed game.
