Oh crap. Sorry, I didn't see this thread had gotten updated. I'll get on it tonight, which will be the soonest I can do it.

I haven't actually found a solid answer to this question yet. But i was wondering if you could convert a .mcr for an ePSXe memory card to work on a PS3 Internal Memory Card. so i believe it's a .psv i need. www.mediafire.com/?jxlmb9elda2that should be the correct one. Thanks in advance. My apologies, almost forgot, those are PAL- Final Fantasy VII saves. |

I'm waiting on my roommate to bring back the PS3. He took it with him, and he didn't come back last night like he was supposed to, so I haven't had a chance to convert it yet. He said he'll be back around tomorrow morning, so *hopefully* it should be done relatively soon. Less than a day for sure. That goes for you too dommyuk. Your file will also require me to have the PS3 available to do the conversion. Sorry for the delays here...  |

morbidmulatto: Here is your converted save. Sorry for the (too long) delay. dommyuk: And here are your converted saves. Sorry to you too for the delay. So both of you know (and to everybody else, as someone seemed to not notice this)... I always put the memory card files in a .rar file (though sometimes I do .zip, and occasionally .7z), so you have to extract it before you can use it. This is to save on bandwidth (memory cards compress *very* well). I'm probably going to use .7z from now on, as I very much like the program (not to mention it being freeware and still one of the best compression types out there).

Hey, I got a question for you guys. If I indeed do try converting any EU saves to NA on my own (I'm doing one for Parasite Eve 2), and I try to use MemcardRex to do so, how is the identifier number an issue? Do I have to create a new one (I don't know how to), or is it nothing to worry about when I the save out?

Many times the identifier is the same between regions, so you can simply try to leave it be to see if it works. This isn't *always* the case though, so if it doesn't work out, the easiest way to find out what it should be is to go someplace like GameFAQs and grab a save from the region to see how it compares.
Or even easier... just have whoever has the game create a save for you to look at. You'll be able to see if there are any differences in the identifier quite easily that way.
To change the identifier for a save using MemcardRex, simply right-click the save and choose "Edit save header". You can change the Game ID and Identifier from that screen.

Well, I tried converting the save that is at the Refuge in the very beginning of Disc 2 for Parasite Eve 2, but everytime I try to load the save, the game keeps popping up a message that the file is corrupt and it can't load it. So, as a last resort, and considering that Gamefaqs doesn't allow direct links to saves, I uploaded the save to Sendspace, and I'm wondering if you can convert it for me because I'm at a loss now. The save was originally by ChandooG, so it's not originally mine (I don't take credit for things that are not originally mine). www.sendspace.com/file/m8zak9 |

I now see why you were having trouble with this. It almost looks like some kind of special check code is being used as the identifier. Can't say it's a checksum, since the values are limited to being between 31 and 7A (hex). The first letter, though, corresponds to the slot it was saved in (slot 1 is A, slot 2 is B, slot 3 is C, etc).
I do not have the converted save for you yet, because I'm still trying to figure this all out. But hopefully I can figure it out and get to you with a working save.

Alright, that's understandable. I appreciate all the help that has been done so far, and I look forward to seeing a finished product of the save too. I wish you luck on figuring it out. |

Hi. Is there any way that the .gme file in the link could be converted into a standard english PAL .psv file so I can get onto my PS3?
[ftp]http://db.gamefaqs.com/console/psx/save/final_fantasy_ix.gme[/ftp]
Thanks beforehand!

hoo: I will *try* to get this done tonight. Been quite busy, so I apologize for these delays... snake6782: I can't seem to do it. Maybe it's because I've been stressed lately and I'm not on my game, but I can't seem to pull it off.
