How to Use Raw Tools about gcmm HOT 6 OPEN

I'd suggest using dolphin for raw memory card management. Raw tools were coded before other protection algorithms were cracked for ssve protected games. Use gci files instead. Use dolphin in your computer tonextract gci files from your raw memory card file.

I used this guide but it is not working, Dolphin said "Failed opening memory card: Invalid checksums. Data in area of file that should be unused." How would I make this work?

Is there any way you know to fix this?

Dolphin's own memory card management tool doesn't seem to be able nor made to deal with corrupted raw memory card files (mismatching checksums or broken data structure).

I've recently run into a similar problem with a raw backup of my corrupted memory card.
GCMM on the other hand doesn't have a problem with corrupted memory cards.
That's why re-formatting isn't the best idea, besides it's no use to do it on a corrupt card as you could see.

However I recently found a tool, even though it has some limitations, was also able to find savedata (from a raw gcmm backup) just as gcmm is able too with the original card (I don't know if they detect the same, but I think so), take notice of it's scan / file search limitations though.

Yeah, I didn't reformat the card. I just saved it twice and then formatted it, but now it's just on a format loop, it doesn't work. Anyway, I'll look into that new tool if you have nothing else to suggest.
