In order to complete this tutorial, the PS2 needs to be running FMCB to copy the save to the PS1 Memory Card, the PC needs to connect to the PSP Memory Stick Duo, and a USB storage device is used to import the save from the PC to the PS2.

I'm having a bit of trouble. I did everything as stated and although my save shows up on the memory card, there is no save shown in-game of final fantasy 7. Any advise?

All 15 save slots in the game are 'EMPTY'?

Are you able to upload here what you have, or maybe just post a link? I want to reproduce your results.

Try the tutorial again. MemcardRex was updated.

Iirc, you need to have an initial save since block 1 is the toc. That's how the system knows which slot the save is in.

Thank you very much that seemed to solve the issue!
