Released: August 13th, 2003

This program will convert ZSNES save states to GameDoctor SF7 real time save files.

Usage: ZST2SF7 file.zst file.rom file.s01
         file.zst = (input file) ZSNES save state file
         file.rom = (input file) ROM file in SF7 format
         file.s01 = (output file) name of SF7 real time save

This may work for other GameDoctors ... but I haven't tried them.

On the real SNES there are somethings that a cartridge just cannot access without changing data ... therefore it is impossible to do a "complete" real time save.  With emulation, obviously the software has access to everything.  This is why all of the SNES "saver units" can't function as perfectly as we've come to expect from emulation.  Please keep this limitation in mind.  

Since it would be amazingly frustrating to figure out if something is a bug in the program, or an actual limitation of the hardware ... I WILL NOT BE ACCEPTING ANY BUG REPORTS.

If you want to learn more about the SF7, or want to try to improve my code.  I will probably be willing to share my code.  Just contact me on one of the message boards (zsnes, cherryroms, snes9x).

REPEAT: THIS UTILITY IS NOT BEING MAINTAINED.  I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR BUG REPORTS.  PERIOD.
