Looking for save files

Anyone got Snatcher Sega CD save files for fusion emulator? I'd like to have one which loads the game close to the part when you go to search Ivans house and have just been at Outer Heaven bar and figured out the montage image.

Thanks in advance! =)

Do you want a SaveState, or Sega Mega-CD SRAM data?
I deleted my Kega Fusion SRAM data awhile ago to clear my saves, but I could make you a SaveState if you want that. SRAM wouldn't be out of the question, either.

Yeah savestate would be fine too, if it just works with the fusion emulator. :)

I think SRAM would work better, because SaveStates require you to be playing the game in the same manner as the other person (I.E. Playing off CD-ROM if the first player is playing a CD/Placing the ISO backup in the same derectory as the the other player, if playing off an ISO backup) Ill have this for you by atleast tomorrow if not today. =)

I had the Backup-RAM file but I corruped it somehow.
I'm also having trouble uploading the file to this post; something about "the extension BRM is not allowed".
Any help would be appriciated.
Since I messed up the file I'll atleast have it for you by the end of the week.
Perhaps I shoul compress to .RAR or .ZIP?

You will be able to post it if you compresses it in a ZIP folder.

So your BAMMFrazer?
It's a very nice and organized save collection, I checked the creation date on the saves and it says it was made ‎February ‎15, ‎2002.

Yup, that was my family's email address back when I was in high school, lol! :P
Glad if these saves are still proving useful. :)

I know this thread is old and Snatcher42 hasn't logged in since 2012, but for what it's worth, these files work on retroarch in 2020.

From Reddit:
Look for the saves in /data/retroarch/savefiles/. By default you'll find two files that need copying: cart.brm, which contains all saves to the memory card, and scd_u.brm, which contains all saves to the Sega CD's internal memory. Both files are shared across all games, so be careful overwriting them. If you enabled per-game saving in the core options then your internal memory will instead be saved as something like Snatcher.brm; this is interchangeable with scd_u.brm, but make sure that it has exactly the same filename as the corresponding .bin/.cue.
I renamed BRM to SRM and works like charm.



Another blast from the past are these phpBB forums!
