If you have a PS3 then you can get a memory card adapter for it and transfer the data that way. You can also use a DexDrive or similar adapter for the PC along with a regular PSP and cwcheat to do so.

Sure, upload away. Oh, and a PSP Go is fairly cheap nowadays if you want a good portable system for emulation and such as all of them are downgradable to 6.20 for permanent CFW.
 
Here is just the save file insert into the SCUS94163 and gtg for converting http://www.mediafire...41a8uhw851a497v
I really appreciate it
and i had a psp go but it wasnt for me
i cant even play my 3ds without the circlr pad pro addon or its to small for my hands
(my finger get cramped or i have to interlock them)
 
So you want it converted to a format the Vita can use, right(to transfer via CMA)? I'll give it a go.

I don't have a PS1 game on my Vita currently, so I can't test if it'll work or not, but it should, given that I used my DEX PS3 to "re-sign" the saves(I can elaborate how if you have a CFW or DEX PS3), used my PSP to create a VMP(exported from PS3 -> PSP), and then used CMA to move it to my Vita with no issue. It'd be a lot smoother to convert if I had a PS1 game, but alas. Anyway, here's my attempt(both VMP files are the same thing; I think the Vita requires both files to be present):

Thank Neogaf for being awesome again, and Mr McWoot in particular.

1. Create this path in the root directory of the external storage device that you will be connecting to the PS3: PS3 -> EXPORT -> PSV.

2. Place the PSV file in this directory.

3. Connect the device to the PS3 and go to Memory Card Utility under GAME. Scroll to the top and you should see your device.

4. Connect your PSP to the PS3 and make sure the USB connection is active on the PSP.

5. Navigate to your external storage device and you should see your PSV files which show up as proper PS1 memory card saves. Copy them to a virtual memory card on the PS3. You will have to create one if you haven't already.

6. Navigate to the virtual memory card you copied the save to. Highlight the desired save file and hit Triangle, then choose "Copy". Copy it to the PSP, which should be near the icon for your external storage device.

7. You will be asked if you want to convert the save before copying, choose yes. Remember which virtual memory card you copied it to.

8. After it is done copying (this may take a while if you have a lot of saves on your PSP memory stick), disconnect the PSP and connect it to your computer. Remember the memory card you copied it to. The name of the game is key in finding the VMP. For example, let's say I copied it to a virtual card created for "Silent Hill". On the PSP memory stick, navigate to PSP -> SAVEDATA.

Now go to gamefaqs.com and look up "Silent Hill". Click on the "Release Data" link. The product ID is the folder name. The US version of Silent Hill's product ID is SLUS-00707. So find a folder named SLUS00707 in the SAVEDATA folder. You will see two VMP files. SCEVMC0.VMP and SCEVMC1.VMP. If you copied to the first memory card slot, your save file will be in SCEVMC0.VMP.

9. Copy this file to your computer. You're going to need to put it in your computer's Vita saves directory, and connect the PS Vita. Refer to your Content Manager settings. The path should be: PS Vita -> PSAVEDATA. On your Vita, you will need to have a PS1 game save copied. In the PSAVEDATA folder look for a folder which has the letters SLUS at the beginning. These are US PS1 save folders. Refer to Gamefaqs for product codes of different regions.

Copy your VMP save to this folder. If you have saves you don't want overwritten in this folder, rename your save to SCEVMC1.VMP if you saved in the first slot.

10. Back on your Vita, select the PC -> PS Vita option and your Playstation save should be there!

Thing is, I found that post earlier, and tried it(first I converted the saves on Sic's VMP to PSV files with my DEX PS3), but the Vita gives me an error saying it can't copy the file over, so something's getting messed up during the PS3 -> PSP conversion, I think..

Edit: The error is: "Could not copy some content items. (C0-14266-9)", which is weird, since all I did was replace one of the VMP files with the one I made from my PSP. No dice.

Edit 2: Was going the wrong way. I still get an error though, "Could not copy some content items. (C0-7935-4)", so I guess Sony's changed the virtual memory card encryption yet again..

Edit 3: Restarting the Vita seems to have fixed it. I'll reupload the files in a minute since the previous upload won't work.

Sicsuicide, try this one: http://www.mediafire...yfpstyz1athzxac

It should copy right over, in theory. If it doesn't end up showing up(I edited the PARAM.SFO to try and match the game on PSN), just backup whatever FF7 saves you have to your PC with CMA and then overwrite the *.PMV files with the ones I made, and it should transfer back just fine.

Here's a slightly easier way I found through trial and error, if you have a PS3, but not a PSP(slightly edited from a post I made on a different forum):
1. Convert your PC PS1 memory card save to PS3 format(PSV) and copy it to your PS3. Search the web for how to do this, or get someone to convert for you.
2. Run the PSOne game on your Vita at least once so it creates two virtual memory cards on your Vita.
3. Connect your Vita to your PS3 and open CMA on your Vita.
4. Go to PS3™ System -> PS Vita System.
5. Go to Applications, scroll down to Save Data, and choose Playstation®.
6. Select the virtual memory card(this is the PS3's list of virtual memory cards, don't get confused!) that contains your save.
7. Select the save(s) you want to move and press Copy, then on the next screen, it will display another list of memory cards(this is on the Vita now), select the game's memory card, and it'll copy right over. Overwrite the save if prompted(assuming you really want to do it!).
8. You're done.

Having all 3 consoles helps quite a bit. :P
 
Here is to hopes it worked lol.Yea just needed a fixed checksum
as that save editor breaks the checksum of the save for the game.
And i dont have a psp anymore to import the save
I really appreciate it ty
