Problem with VMU transfer via coder's cable

[Darkfalz]

Vorlem was a nice program, it's a shame it was bugged and never got a new version. It didn't do read only saves and so on, and sometimes crashed on some saves (Lodoss War was one).

I only use the tools by Kikuchan these days, they are a bit cumbersome but work fine for me.

vmload/vmsave - these dump every VMU connected entirely into DCM files.

vmurip - this will rip files out of only the first VMU, all files ripped into DCI files.

What I usually do is that I have blank DCM files already to use, I use vmurip to rip out all the saves, then I import the ones I want using a rather ugly piece of software called DCLinker (the software that came with the Nexus card) and then I upload the whole image back onto the VMU. It's more writing than is necessary unfortunately, but it's the only decent way to manage saves.

Maybe Bucanero and the others working on VMUtool can change that...

Well, to let everyone know, I left it for a couple of days. Got the ****s and unplugged it all.

Tonight, I came back and tried it all again. This time it worked. DC-Load was working away instead of sitiing on its arse. I have a feeling it was all because of meeps... ;-) I didn't include it in the command prompt. Couldn't find vmurip but I did find vmubackup.

Good luck with your broadband, darkfalz....
