Most likely the Saturn can't see the cartridge and therefore neither can SGC. If SGC is having trouble seeing your backup cartridge make sure the builtin Saturn memory manager can see the cartridge. SGC uses a dynamic menu and will remove devices it doesn't detect from your menu. The other common issue is the name of the file. The most likely issue is that of metadata being included. When debugging saves that don't work, load SGC on both systems and verify the MD5 hash and file size of both saves. It's possible the issue is related to the SD card itself. Professor Abrasive is aware of the issue. Some Satiator users have reported the first transfer takes ~90 seconds and then all other transfers are fast.Or since you have a Satiator you can just put the saves on your SD card. From there you can transfer multiple saves to the Satiator without issue. If you really want to transfer multiple 'CD Memory' saves to your Satiator, transfer them to your Internal Memory first. I don't know if this is an issue with Satiator or the Satiator-Yabause fork I am testing with. Once you access the Satiator you can no longer list the saves in the 'CD Memory' option.However the comments are copied correctly and can be viewed within the Saturn BIOS. This is a limitation of the print routine I'm using. Non-English save game comments are not displayed.Cartridge backup memory (address: 0x02000000, size: 0x01FFFFFF).Internal backup memory (address: 0x00180000, size: 0x001FFFFF).SGC also supports an advanced feature to dump arbitrary memory.

There are two ways to add your custom save game files to SGC:ġa) (Windows) Using something like WinISO add your save game file to the SATSAVES directory. MODE and Satiator can use longer 14.3 filenames. For example if the file you are adding is FPS_6MEN_01.BUP, rename to FPS_6MEN.BUP.

If you want your ISO to work properly on a Saturn you have to rename the file to an 8.3 character file. BUP and raw saves.Īll files on a CD are limited to 8 character names plus 3 characters for the.
