I tested revision 86 and worked perfect with no problem. I think people on the 
net may have this problem but because no one test this app with older games 
like I do it will go unnoticed. I don't have friends in real life with 
softmodded wiis :( .

What do you think may cause this error?

have you a "no copy save" hack installed?

I have priiloader0.6 beta 3 installed but I don't think I have enabled that 
hack. I will enable it and try again /disable it and try again to see if it is 
affecting the saving somehow.

I ran into this same problem last night with Wii Music in both revision 87 and 
revision 90 of SGMGX.  After about 15 attempts the savegame did install and 
work fine.  I did not change any settings between attempts.  
When the install of the save file was failing it also deleted the save I made 
for Wii Music from the Wii's NAND.  Very strange behavior.
If I can do any testing to help the project just let me know.  So far I love 
what I see of SGMGX, I think it will lead to much easier management of 
savegames.  Thanks.

thx guys

All right, I used the Test.dol and still had the exact same problem with Wii 
Music.  When I click install it supposedly installs the save in the blink of an 
eye but when I check the Wii NAND the save is gone.

DJ I think I found the reason of the bug. I haven't tested your dol because I 
wanted to run a few tests first and the reason I think the Mario Kart save 
"corrupts" resides in the cios the Loader uses.

I always use cios222v4 but I decided to load the game with cios249 and the SGM 
extract and install worked perfectly. When I loaded the game again with cios222 
it game me the "corrupt save" warning again. If I load the game again with 249 
it works perfectly again so I think the save didn't "corrupts" in reality but 
gives a warning as if was corrupted.

Most people haven't felt this problem because the majority of people load games 
with cios 249 .

I load with 222 also but I am using v5.  I will try this with Wii Music and 
report back when possible.

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
thx for your test jayro
waiting your return jsugarsmacks
so it's perhaps a bug with the cIOS222...

Nope, using cios249 rev20b to create a Wii Music save file still had the same 
results.  The save file on the Wii NAND was erased when the file from SGMGX was 
installed.  I dont think it is a problem with the save file because the one 
time it did work the installed save was fine (when checking Wii Music).  What 
loader is jayro using to load games?  I am using Wiiflow, maybe something weird 
is happening with it.

I'm using Configurable usb loader and the cios249 comes from rev20 with base 56.
I will try Wii Music here and I'll post results.

Results for Wii Music are:

If I create save then extract / install with SGM and then load the game with 
222 it will give me this error http://yfrog.com/1gdscf1309fj
and will get stuck there unless I power off the wii.

If I load with 249 will run fine.

*Ps* error says: An error ocurred while accesing wii memory, consult operation 
manual...

I get this same exact problem with EVERY games. I just restored my NAND and 
tried to re-install the savegames I had backed up prior to the restore and 
every game says I got a corrupted save. I'm using USBLoaderGX r938 with 
cIOS222v4 and SaveGame Manager GX r90.

I'll try it with cIOS249 and report, but meanwhile is there any workaround to 
restore my saves ?

Thank you!

@BigBig I don't think the saves are corrupt, it is a warning you get when 
loading the game with 222. Try to load it with 249 and please post results.

@Dj Skual let's say it is the cios 222 the one causing the problem is there any 
solution to this?

cIOS 249 didn't help ...

Could the problem resides in a combination the Usb Loader in use and the cios 
loaded?

BigBig what Usb Loader are you using?

What rev of 249 are you using?  For example I use rev 20 with base 56.

hope you will try the test dol when it will be avalaible
stay tune...

I'm using USBLoaderGX r938 with cIOS222v4 and SaveGame Manager GX r90, my 
cIOS249 is v19 I think but I can't tell for sure right now. I can load and 
create saves that are on my old (restored) NAND, but files "archived" with 
SavegameManagerGX can't be installed back on my Wii. In the past I've been able 
to install back my saves using old version of SavegameManagerGX after another 
NAND restore, about a year ago.

I'll try your test dol for sure!

My report:

I tested the test dol and I loaded both mario kart and wii play with cios222 
and both of them worked perfectly.
