Save Game Copier is a program created by Slinga to save individual save/restore files from internal or External save cartridges to the MODE's SD Card. It is a constantly evolving piece of software so always make certain you have the latest version from here.

Set-up

  • Create a folder called "SATSAVES" in the root of your SD card. The program currently only works saving to SD card.
  • In your Saturn folder on the SD card create a folder to place the Save Game Copier bin & cue you obtained from github (link above).
  • Rename the game_cue_for_mode.cue to just game.cue. The original cue file that came with the download can be deleted.

Usage Notes

  • Copying large save files is slow, give the process time to complete (it can take a minute or two in some instances)
  • Occasionally you make receive an error (blue screen) when copying or restoring a file. Please try the process again or exit the program and restart. It is a Work in Progress.
  • DO NOT delete any save from your source until you are positive it moved properly.
  • If you have the "return to CD->MODE" soft rest option enabled you may get a black screen when loading Save Game Copier. Either use the "Direct to MODE" option or disable soft reset before use.
  • Currently save files from action replay cartridges, which are compressed, are not recognized or "moveable". To use these restore them to the Saturn internal memory first before copying to MODE.
