White Knight Chronicles: Origins

Did some further testing.

Apparently when saving a brand new game upon a memstick folder that already had a previous save, the game looks for a non-existent file called SCENAR1.BIN in the UCES01511 folder. Problem is the file does not exist, because it is apparently not created when the game is saved the first time around in PPSSPP on a clean slate (i.e. no previous saves for the particular game). The only SCENARx.BIN file that exists in the folder is SCENAR0.BIN, not SCENAR1.BIN.



Which causes the Error code 80110327 to appear as in my previous post.

Now what happens when I just move the game's save folders (UCES01511 and UCES01511MP) away temporarily to another location and attempt to save my new character again? (effectively making it so the game does not detect a prior save folder)



It works, and the game proceeds smoothly, allowing you to even save within the game itself until....

The next emulator reset when I attempt to load when that aforementioned save I've just created:-



Notice it is the same issue again, the game is looking for a file it never created (SCENAR1.BIN) in the save folder in the first place.

Why the game did not create the SCENAR1.BIN file in the first place, is the question.

UPDATE:-

Just for the heck of it I decided to see what would happen if I renamed SCENAR0.BIN to SCENAR1.BIN.

No dice. The game expects both a SCENAR0.BIN file (which is correctly created in the UCES01511 folder) and a SCENAR1.BIN (which is isn't made and is a potential cause of the game not being able to detect older saves after a reset)
