Original issue 353 created by superKaleb64 on 2013-07-20T02:05:48.000Z:

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Saving a game to the ram in genplus-gx (i.e. "Snatcher")
2. Run said game in Kega Fusion 3.64 (i.e. "Snatcher")
3. Select saved RAM Cart: File->Load RAM Cart->cart.brm->Cartridge
4. Select CD RAM Cart in game

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It should let me continue my saved game in Kega Fusion, but instead I have to format the RAM cart, losing my saved data.

    After checking Fusion RAM Cart files, it appears Fusion doesn't support
    Genesis Plus GX RAM Cart files because Fusion only supports RAM Cart up to 128KB , while Genesis Plus GX emulates a 512KB RAM Cart by default, which is the theoretical max. size for this backup device.

    I guess i could add configurable RAM Cart size to allow compatibility with Fusion but it will add compatibility issue within Genesis Plus GX itself when using different RAM Cart size, with the risk of formatting existing RAM files, which is quite stupid, especially when it's easier for you to just copy the game saves to built-in RAM then use the saved file (ex: scd_U.brm) in Fusion.
