PSXJin + Can't Save On Memorycards
Ohio, USA

hey im new to psxjin and was trying to figure out why this is happening, basically i grabbed the psxjin clear save file for SOTN on here , loads up the file fine , but than ill make a seperate save file on the memory card it'll save fine , but if i reboot the emulator or reset it or whatever. the save will be completely gone. so i was just trying to figure out if it's something im doing wrong or what. thanks.

Try reformatting both memory cards then replacing one with the file from resources. Sometimes psxjin has odd bugs.

i still cant get it to work , is there a memory card manager outside of jin that can be used to format the memory cards?

Bulgaria

No. Try using the file for both mem cards. Idk..

idk it wont save on either one of them , i pretty much gave up on it , if anything i'll just use psxjin for straight speedruns only. thanks anyway.

Bizhawk works pretty well too, it has a couple slight slowdowns, but nothing super significant.

I daily use PsxJin and faced that Problem too. My Solution is: If you wanna keep the SaveFile Go into the Game (with the SaveFile) Make sure you dont have Savestates. Then inside the Game. Go to a Saveroom and open the Memory Card File Manager. Format it and Save normally with the Save Room. Now your good. I whould recommend to use Select + Start now to Enter the Main Menu Now you should see the Savefile. Load it and Save in Heart Room Select Save Game / Dont Overwrite / Select 2 Slot. Go Back to the Main Menu by Start Select . Now you can delete the first Slot of the Mem Card. Make a Save State and now even if everything crashes ( or you delete you whole Mem card for any other reasons) The Savestate will still have the Clearfile if you load that State. ( If formating is not fixing it manually delete the Folder of the Emu)
