Hello all, I've been playing the Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn + mod and every time I reboot the game, my old save data is there. I've tried deleting the files in the game, as well as through the emulated Wii save data management menu, which I heard was the best way to do it. I was also wondering if there was a way for Dolphin to interpret the vanilla game and the mod as their own separate games with unique save data, because at the moment I'm pretty sure they share it. Any advice is appreciated.
 
i would say to try renaming the games; or put the save files in separate folders. i had a similar issue when i was playing a couple of pikmin 2 mods. dolphin kept loading the same memory card data for both games.
 
Is OneDrive syncing your files? Are you using Dolphin in portable mode?
 
I would try looking at the actual folder on your PC where they're located (I think there's an option in the right click menu to open it) and just deleting or moving the files outright. If they magically reappear even after this, then it's likely something aside from Dolphin that's doing it.
