Why don't game saves on soul calibur IV work?

Question

when I try to use them, I delete my other game save, the original, (because there is no load game option in scIV) it says that there is no game data!!!!

Answer 1

idk if this might be the case for soul calibur, but certain games like burnout paradise have the saves locked into the account that created the save that may be the same case for soul calibur  

Answer 2

I hope you're talking about a PS3 copy. If not, ignore this, since it probably won't help you.

This may seem kind of confusing if you don't have any experience using USB devices on your PS3. I'll try to break it down into steps.

0. Insert a USB device

1. Go to Save Data Utility

2. Go to Soulcalubur IV

3. Press Triangle on the data and then click Copy

4. Copy onto the USB device

5. Insert the device into your computer

6. On your device there will be a folder named PS3, inside which there is a folder named SAVEDATA, inside which there is a folder named BLUS#####, where each # is replaced by an actual number. In there is the SC4 save data.

7. The data should consist of 5 separate files: ICON0.png, PARAM.pfd, PARAM.sfo, PIC1.png, SAVE.dat

8. Your new save data must consist of all of these parts. If it does, then copy the originals onto your PC (just in case), then remove them from the folder. If it doesn't, then it will not work.

9. Put all 5 files of the new data into the now-empty BLUS##### folder

10. Reinsert the device into your console, go to Save Data Utility, scroll all the way up to the top (to your USB device), open it, and if it's in the correct format, the data should be right there. If it isn't, your data is not in the right format and cannot be used, so put the original back (good thing you backed it up).

If this doesn't work, then it's either a programming error in the game, or a feature designed specifically to prevent save sharing.

I know this has been a little long-winded, but I didn't want you to end up with corrupted data due to short, unclear steps (if you choose to follow mine).
