## Adding Custom Save Games to the SGC ISO
There are two ways to add your custom save game files to SGC:
1) (Windows) Using something like WinISO add your save game file to the SAVES directory. Again read the instructions in "Save Game Format" so you have the correct type of file and filename. The filename must be in the 8.3 format.
1) (Windows) Using something like WinISO add your save game file to the SATSAVES directory. Again read the instructions in "Save Game Format" so you have the correct type of file and filename. The filename must be in the 8.3 format.
1) (Linux)

2) If you are comfortable compiling SGC, you can also add saves at build time. Checkout SGC from source. Add your save game files (in a raw format) to cd/SAVES/ and recompile. Again read the instructions in "Save Game Format" so you have the correct type of file and filename. The newly built ISO will include your saves.

## Satiator Support
I don't own a Satiator so my testing has solely been with the [Satiator Yabause fork](https://github.com/satiator/satiator-yabause). When using a Satiator:
* Make sure you upgrade to the latest firmware. There have been firmware fixes
* Create a "SAVES" directory on the root of the drive. SGC is hardcoded to use that folder. Copy saves to and from that folder.
* Create a "SATSAVES" directory on the root of the drive. SGC is hardcoded to use that folder. Copy saves to and from that folder.
* Saves must use the .BUP file extensions or they will not be visible. Filenames can be 11 characters + 3 more for the extension.
