FXPAK Save Pack

Requires SA-1 capable firmware (v1.9.0 and beyond). Put the "SMRPG 2019 SAVES" in the root directory, and the files of the "Put These Files in sd2snes Saves Folder" in the sd2snes Saves folder. Keep in mind, this game when played on SD2SNES does not appear to exactly match the amount of lag you would get on a real cart. This is fine for practice purposes, but if possible, runs should be done on a real cart.

In order to use the states you need to do the following, "Config -> Cores -> SNES -> BSNES"
