Ok so I've been playing pcsx2 with no problems, various games saving and loading no problem. Then yesterday I started playing GTA San Andreas and it saved and loaded no problem. The only thing I did during this was enable HW hacks to get rid of the "Ghost effect" or w/e. I played a while, saved, then started playing another game and saved just fine. Now today when I boot up GTA it starts a new game, says no save files found, and when I try to save it says "memory card error" or some *****. I've read a few things on here and tried ejecting and re inserting the card with no luck. All my other games I had saved are now wiped and I have to start all over. I'm kind of noobish so I'm not sure what I should do and this is so annoying. Any ideas?
This was an issue which was reported on github here: https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/issues/1136

it has since been fixed (at least we believe it has, nobody has confirmed it I don't think) so if you get the latest development build from the link below, it should work fine on there.

There is a problem with pcsx2 1.4.0, it's corrupting saved games (memory card), I don't know why Sad
Ok. Yea 1.4.0 is the one I have. So if I dwl a newer build will my save files work? Or will I just have to start over from there?

I think his case might be a bit different.... his was just a problem of a Memory Card file going corrupt completely it seems, rather than being Game-specific. Tongue
You will have to restart the game Tongue

Eject memcard on loading states may occur this. Try enabling or disabling it.

sounds exactly the same issue to me Tongue
GTA never actually corrupted the entire Memory Card. It was just that it didn't recognize the saves when a space or dot was at the end of the name. Tongue (For the Folder Memory Card system, which I'm not even sure he's even using..)

But either way in his case he said ALL the games stopped working from that point.

^This was never caused by the GTA issue.
All my saves from other games such as Max payne, MGS3, god of war etc. Have all been erased it seems and I cant even save now. On any of them. But the mem card in port 1 says its formatted so idk wtf
