I took an iso from my FF7 PS1 disk and converted to an Eboot before but accidentally deleted it and my old save doesnt show up on my new one, is there anyway to fix this? I know the save is still on the psp.

When you make a psx eboot you have to choose an SLUS code. It will be SLUS (or SCPS, SLPS, etc etc) followed by a series of numbers, this is basically a serial number or part number for a psx game. Each one has one and the same game may have different ones based on region.
Here's a website of some example ones:
http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/threads/62637-SLUS-Code-adjustments-for-POPstation
http://www.digitpress.com/forum/archive ... 45473.html

The issue is that with psx games the psp makes a save directory based on the SLUS code. So if your new eboot wasn't made with the same SLUS code as your old one was, then the savegames for each will be in different directories. You'll see in your psp's SAVEDATA directory a bunch of directories that are just called SLUSXXXXX (the X's represent numbers) and these are the saves for each psx game.

So you can go into the save directory for your old eboot and move it over to the new one if you can figure out which is which. Here's a good list of what SLUS code is for a certain game. Hope that can help you out.

As an example, when I play ff7 I play one disc at a time, so I only make an eboot for 1 cd at a time, but each cd have a different SLUS code. so when I finish the first disc and make the eboot for the second disc it's saved games are saved in a different directory, so I have to copy the disc 1 files to the disc 2 directory to continue my game.

So I have a folder for SCUS94163, which is FF7, do I have to make a new SLUS folder for my new eboot to move it into? Im kind of confused about how the SLUS system works. How do I find out which slus code my FF7 Eboot has now?
