Dolphin Save File Location

broken image


May 13, 2020 How do you save Wii files on dolphin? Open Dolphin, go to Tools-Wii Save Import and select the data. Bin file (contained in the ZIP archive you attached). All of its files will be extracted to the game save folder. Power Tools allows single files to be copied upon Cold Boot. It is not possible to have a directory copied to a different location using this process. 'AutoRun.exm' can be used to call a process upon a cold boot process which allows the copy of files. When I save the 'Regular way', where are these located? Is it possible to specify where I'd like these saved? The easiest way I have found is when you have Dolphen launched no game running, is to right click on your desired game title and then click on 'Open Wii Save folder' and this takes you right to the save files for that particular game. Alright so first you have to update to Dolphin 5.0 development versions as 4.0 and stable are not supported anymore. They call it stable but the newer versions are actually better than them. And they're saved in documents/Dolphin/GC/Memcard A. You need to extract them but that's easy. If you go into your Dolphin folder, go to user then to GC. I dont remember (not at my pc atm) but I think there is a folder called saves or there are already 2 sets of files that say memorycardA and memorycardB or something like that.
