Title: Does FF7 PSP saves work on PC?
Post by: blueknavish on 2010-11-21 09:56:57
Do they? I wasted like 100 hours maxing everything out on PSP and now I'm going to test out the new mods for PC. I like to have the "perfect save for my standards" on standy by for satisafaction purposes. I could always do it again. Anyone?

EDIT: PSP FF7 save folder is named "SCUS94163", contents: CONFIG.bin, ICON0.PNG, PARAM.SFO, SCEVMC0.VMP, SCEVMC1.VMP

I would of made my own save file from the pc game but I can't get past the new game selection because it is not patched. I tried dumping the PSP save into c:\...\save folder but it didn't work. LOL. DAMN!

I do believe that a save file converter exists... Check the wiki (http://wiki.qhimm.com/FF7/Technical/Customising)

you can use black chobobo (http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=9625.0) to convert your vmp save to a pc save

Thanks for the replies so far,

I downloaded ffsave 1.03 and it did not generate new save files the black command box would just disappear and nothing happens.

I downloaded Black_Chocobo and I loaded the sample .VPM save and it WORKS beautifully in-game. But, when I load my .VPM save (SCEVMC0.VMP) from the PSP version and convert it to PC format (.ff7) the file will not load! It appears there but says "Invalid Save File!" Like I said, I can convert the sample .VPM no problem and it works fine. PSP saves bugged?

I could just deal with it and start all over but I worked hard on my save file and I do not want to generate one. I did not realize that such great upgrades were still in the works so I got interested in the PC version again.

Anyone?

EDIT: I don't know maybe I'm doing something wrong? I can view my save file in detail with Black_Chocobo... all of my items and materia that I aquired are there. I'm using the EXPORT TO PC action.

anyone have any ideas? i could send you my PSP .VMP save file IF anyone is willing to troubleshoot it. i've tried many methods to change the format, i even tried to turn it into psx format first then transfer to pc.
