Gamecube saves on USB Hard Drive not being loaded by Nintendont
Hi Nintendont team!
I have been using your app to play gamecube games on my wii, and recently I moved my games and saves from my old usb stick to a new usb hard drive. However, when I go into games like Luigi's Mansion, my previous saves are nowhere to be found. I looked in the Nintendont settings, but I can't find anywhere to set the path for the emulated memory card. Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks!

you probably have different nintendont settings then you did before, take a picture of your nintendont settings and then inside your saves folder.
Hi, here are the pics:
Been running into this problem last couple years. I think they changed something or I just don't know how it works, but this is what I have done:
- Make sure Memcard Emulation is ON, Memcard Blocks is 251, and TURN Memcard Multi ON.
- Create a new file on a whatever game and SAVE, like a new file on Luigi's Mansion and save on a toad.
- Close the game and take the USB to a computer.
- Look into your \saves\ folder on your USB and look for a ninmen .RAW memory card (like one you access on Dolphin). This is the memory card you will be using.
- Load your save into this one, and return to nintendont and boot straight into the game (the settings should retain).
~I remember as a kid I had to create the separate .RAW file and load the save in, but it looks like it all saves to one .RAW called ninmen now. I will look into this and report back if I see anything about this.~
Edit: Okay, it seems I have the Memcard Multi option ticked. This will just populate a single memory card called ninmem with all the saves. This works for me. I have updated the list to include this step.
