Saturn:SAROO

Multi Game Save Data Management

This will serve as a step-by-step guide to transferring save data from one game to another, for games like Panzer Dragoon Saga and Shining Force 3: Scenarios 1-3. This guide is currently a work in progress, and may change depending on the development and feature changes on the SAROO project.

These steps are for the firmware v0.6. For this example, we will be using Shining Force 3: Scenario 2 (SF3:S2) and Shining Force 3: Scenario 3 (SF3:S3).

1. Load the game of the save data you would like to transfer on SAROO, in this case, SF3:S2.
2. On the title Screen, press ABC + Start to go to the Saturn main menu.
3. Navigate to the Memory Manager, select Internal Memory and locate your save data for SF3:S2.
4. Copy the SF3:S2 save data to the External Memory and go back to the Saturn main menu.
5. Press start to go back to the Saroo main menu.
6. Load the game that you would like to import the save data too, in this case, SF3:S3.
7. On the title screen, again, press ABC + Start to go back to the Saturn main menu.
8. Go to the Memory Manager, select External Memory, find your cleared game data, in this case, the SF3:S2 data you copied over in Step 4, and copy that data to the Internal Memory.
9. Exit Memory Manager and start the game from the Saturn main menu and press "A" to load the game.
10. If you did everything correctly the cleared SF3:S2 data should show up on SF3:S3 Internal Memory.
