Quick Text Guide: Part 1: Converting to .PSU Are you working with a single save? (.max, .xps, etc like the ones online) 1. Open PS2Save Converter (X2Pconv.exe) 2. Click 'File'-> 'Open' then load your save file. 3. Once it's loaded, click 'File'->'Save' and save it with a name ending in .psu DONE! Are you working with an emulator save? (.PS2 FULL memory card) 1. Open mymc-gui.exe 2. Load up your virtual memory card 3. Click the save you want to export, then click 'File' ->'Export' 4. Make sure you save it as a .psu file! Part 2: Transferring to PS2 1. Copy all your .psu files to a fat32 formatted Memory card. 2. Load up LaunchElf 3. Browse to your PSU files, mark (press 'X' on) all the files you want, then copy them 4. Browse to the root of your memory card (mc0= memory card 1, mc1=memory card 2) 5. And from the (R1) menu select 'PsuPaste' 6. If you get a prompt to overwrite that mean the save already exists, 7. Once the box goes away you should be all set, test your save! Part 3: Exporting PS2 saves from real memory card. 1. Open 'launchelf' 2. Browse to the root of your memory card (mc0= memory card 1, mc1=memory card 2) 3. Press 'L1' to bring up the 'show content' window, then press 'Square' to show game titles, then 'Triangle' to close the window. 4.

Go to your flash drive 'Mass:/' then find a place to store your files then from the (R1) menu select 'PsuPaste' 6. you have the save files backed up in PSU format. You can convert them to whatever format you like, or import them into a virtual memory card with mymc-gui.exe

To convert your original PS2 saves to .psu, you have to add all three of the files: sys, icn/ico, and the games file name to the list then go to properties and change the name of the file which will be full SLUS or SCUS name of the game. I'll be uploading a video on how to do it. This part I had to figure out on my own because I haven't found a video that explains this part.

I don't know if I missed this, but does the PS2 go into that menu for the Launch ELF once you plug in the USB into the PS2? Like do you have to plug in the USB with the save data, and then press something in particular to launch it? or just restart the PS2 and it will automatically go to that menu? I'm referring to 04:52.

I never liked these weird programs for copying ps2 saves into the memory card. They look so primitive and annoying. I wish Brook made a memory card that allowed you to just plug stuff quick and copy paste quick. They made a converter for modern controllers for the Dreamcast. This also included an integrated vmu memory card. And a little program to grab saves from the internet to the adapter. You plug the adapter to the Dreamcast, and boom all the saves are ready to use. No annoying Free McDonald and Will Ferrell Elf Launch or whatever this weird thing is.

If you're having trouble with a process, asking questions or trying again is generally a better first step than assuming the process is flawed. Also, just saying "this doesn't work" won't actually help me figure out where you're having trouble either. In the future it may be more helpful if you simply state what part of the process you're having trouble with, and what steps you may have tried to correct it. That way, there's at least a chance you'll be able to get a solution to your issue.
