Saving Your Game
The saving mechanism in PCSX2 can be a bit tricky, especially if you're used to playing on a console. However, PCSX2 offers various ways to save your game progress:
1. “Corrupted Data” on Boot
- Cause: Region mismatch. The save file is for the US version (SLUS-21678) but your ISO is the EU (SLES-54934) or JP (SLPS-25823) version.
- Solution: Download the correct save file that matches your ISO’s region. BT4 mods are almost always based on the US NTSC version.
Memory card saves vs save states
- Memory card saves (.ps2/.vmc/.mcr depending on plugin) emulate PS2 in-game saves (useful for story progression, unlocking content). Save via the game’s menus to the virtual memory card.
- Save states (.p2s or PCSX2’s .state slots) capture emulator state instantly but can become incompatible across PCSX2 versions or different settings; best for quick temporary backups.
