Compatibility with project64 saves

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It would be nice to play a game sometimes on the Wii pick up where I left
off on the PC, and vice-versa. Project64 saves are in eep/pj.zip format.

.pj files are saves states, IIRC, and as such I have no idea whether they'll 
ever be
supported.  As for the .eep, I have yet to test whether these need modification 
or
not (I know they don't need endian swapping, which was the main problem with 
.fla and
.sra saves).  Have to tried just putting the .eep on your SD and playing it?  
You may
need to make sure it has the (U) or (E) or whatever region you're playing in 
order
for it to find it.  To be sure, you can look at the rom info on Wii64 to find 
out the
internal name of the rom and region, and try different naming formats to see if 
it
works or not.

If you have .fla or .sra saves, you can use my converter to make them 
compatible.

.eep files are compatible directly with the PC emulators (they are written byte 
at a
time, so they are not endian dependant).
.sra and .fla are endian dependant, you can swap them using a hex editor's 
byteswap tool.

The save states aren't going to be compatible as it's just far too different 
between
emulators (wasted effort, just use the native save file).
