If you are a veteran who has already beaten the game legitimately and lost your old memory card, a "hot" save file is a godsend. If it’s your first time playing, consider using a "Story Mode Clear" save that leaves Master Road unfinished, so you still have something to do.

This is the most common mistake players make.

Would you like a quick guide on to PCSX2 format instead?

Rename the downloaded file to Mcd001.ps2 (ensure you backup your old save first) and place it in the folder.

Open MyMC and select your active memory card (e.g., Mcd001.ps2 ).
