Okay, I'm still really new with Dolphin, I've been playing some Super Smash Bros. Melee through this because my old memory card got corrupted and unusable. I downloaded a save file from GameFAQs, the very first one listed under Gamecube USB Memory Adapter Save (North America) here. The save file is now corrupted. It should be deleted and recreated:. Right click on the game from Dolphin game list and select 'Open Wii save folder'. See for help with creating a virtual SDHC card. The SDHC Extension 1.1Bero code needs to be included in your GCT file found within sd.raw's codes folder.
Getting Started
You will need:
Super Smash Bros Melee (v1.02) NTSC ISO (You have to obtain this yourself. It is prohibited to ask on this site).
Smash Melee Dolphin Rom
- Here is a guide to which specific 1.02 Melee ISO you will need. Others outside the MD5 Checksum of0e63d4223b01d9aba596259dc155a174have a high risk of desyncing. The list mentions a couple other 'safe' options.
Project Slippi r18 Build (From the Download Above)
Extract Dolphin into its own folder:
Run Dolphin.exe
Smash Bros Melee Save File Dolphin
If you receive this error, Download this Pack, install it, then try restarting dolphin again:
Find your list of ISOs by double clicking on the main screen ~OR~ by going to Config > Paths > Add and selecting the FOLDER / Directory where you store your ISOs:
You may also notice that under Other, Show NetPlay Ping and Show NetPlay Messages are toggled on. This is a new feature that shows the netplay chat/buffer/ping in game and may be toggled off if you so desire.
As For Controllers, the layout of how Controllers work are a bit different. Check out the Controller Guide for more information. If you are NOT using the official or 4 port gamecube adapter, you will have to remap your controls. Please follow the Controller Guidefor guidance.

Melee Save File Dolphin
I tried to insert completed game saves into the memory card file that Dolphin uses and it works! Because these files can make it easier to test certain parts of a game, I decided to share them with all of you. I plan on making more for other games later.
How to use
In your Dolphin folder, there should be a folder called 'Data'. In that folder, there is a file called 'memcard_a.raw'. Replace that file with the file in the RAR you downloaded.
