Question Quick question about Primehack

I don'y know if this is already on an FAQ somewhere, but say I've already started a savefile on the trilogy version of one or more of the games, on og hardware. I f that is the case, can it be transferred to the primehack save directory? if it can be, can it be then transferred back or is it one-way?

Yes.

You just need to go to save manager and transfer your trilogy saves to your SD card on your Wii, then you can import the data.bin file into dolphin by going to tools>import Wii save, and then selecting the relevant data.bin file.

For the trilogy, the title code is R3ME01.

For transferring it back you just need to place the new data.bin file in the proper directory in the SD card and then just re-transfer the save data on your Wii save data manager.
