      Hi All

      So I mustered up a good couple of hours last night on Final Fantasy 7 on the PSX, saved it great in game, checked that the SRM file was created along side the bin and cue files so thought happy days, will just load fine tomorrow, but nope just booted up the Pi, went info FF7 and the save game is not showing on any of the memory card slots.

      SRM file still in its same location, not changed anything there.

      Is there anyway I can get the SRM file to load so I don't have to keep starting from scratch everytime I want to play?

      Thanks
      Ant

        I think I remember reading that's there's some issues with multi-disc games and loading saves.

        It's usually better to use the eBoot (or .PBP) version for multi-disc PSX games:

        Also more information here:

        Also you might give us more information like what's describe here:

        Like what emulator you're using, etc...

            I have converted FF7 to PBP but it just keeps sending me back to the game list every time
