Hello there. Been a few years since I last commented on here.
The reason I opened this thread is:
1) I encountered an issue while trying to load my Persona 3 FES [SLUS-21621] save file from a 64MiB card.
Note: I used that card for years, with the same game. With no issues of any kind. Just in case someone mentions that.
2) To help others who may experience the same issue.
Okay then. Here's the story:
I did some Googling, and a user said to check if the card is set to "Read only". Which I did, and it wasn't.
Then, when I tried to convert the card to a Folder-type, the emulator gave me a stream of error messages in the log.
(Will add the log as an attachment.) I checked the memcards folder and it did indeed create the Folder-type card.
I then changed the inserted card to the "_converted" one to see if it will load the save.
However, the game still couldn't see any saves in it.
Emulator build used:
PCSX2 v1.5.0-dev-3408-gf0d08aa7d which I got from Orphis.
Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
===[SOLUTION]===
What I did was, I opened the 64MiB card in mymc and exported the Persona 3 FES save files
to a new 64MiB card created through PCSX2, which I formatted using the PS2's in-built Browser.
The game then recognized the save files and everything worked fine.
Which leads me to believe that my "old" card somehow got corrupted over the years.
Well, that is all. Do move this thread to its correct location if you deem that it should go there.
