Lost my Bravely Default EU chapter 2 save file after backing up my data for 2.02b :sad:. I read the post regarding the proper way of reinjecting the backup save game and was overwritten by a new one too late.

Can someone who has the save game for chapter 2 florem area upload it?please..

If saving for NAND games works the way Gateway stated (direct writing to the end of the ROM file), will save files for these games likely be uploaded in xDelta patches (or other patch software) or would there be a [legal?] problem with that?

A tool can be done to extract/inject the save in the microSD card.
The game's header has the sector where the save starts (though, I don't know if there's a size limit, the savegames could be big) so a tool can open the header and find where the save is located.
I guess ROM_tool could do it.

Is it possible to exchange Datel's Powersaves save files? They are in BIN format


NO. It has been stated multiple times that the only reason people are able to trade saves is due to the fact they are using the same game dump. Whatever datel is doing to the saves to make them work universally is unknown.

Shingeki no Kyojin is good? it covers the anime's story or is it's based on the manga/spinoff chapter?


I edited the first post of this thread to add a nice title with a save sharing help and guideline.

It's great! it based on the anime's story but it is really easy, i was in the final chapters for less than 3 hours! but the gameplay is superb!

1. play a different game, not the one you want to import the save.
If you play the same game, it will keep the internal save instead of importing your new save file, and will overwrite the save file when you exit your game.

2. put the save file on your SD card:
SD:/gameID.sav

3. put the game you want to import save into flashcart.

4. Launch the game, it will import the save file to the flashcart's internal save chipset.



Gateway team said they are working on a direct save file access, so in future releases you will probably won't have to worry about the "last played game", or "exit using Home/X", as it will automatically access the file instead of the chipset.



Hi,

Just got a 3ds xl and copied the game saves from my 3ds to the sd card on the xl. I have then tried as you said but it's not importing the saves but it does delete the new save it just made. Any ideas? Ta

If you correctly played a different game before copying the .sav file to your SD card, then I don't know why it's not working.


Hi. when you say play do you mean boot it up and let it load a save then quit out and swap games in? ta

We have already too many stickies.
Some (4 or 5) could be un-stick'ed, as they are not used that much now (like hack compilation, hack theories from newbies, hacking concept, etc.)

Sounds like a Good plan, some of the stickies are sort of redundant, and other threads stickied would be more useful

play a different game = write a different game in a microSD card, put the microSD card in your Flashcart, put the flashcart in your 3DS, boot the console in Gateway mode, launch the game from the flashcart, exit the game.

Exemple with Mario 3D Land:
You are currently playing Mario 3D Land, but want to import someone else's save.
- Exit Mario 3D Land
- Place a different game (written to microSD card) on your flashcart
- Launch that new game (not Mario 3D Land)
- Exit the game
- Shut down the console
- Put SD card on PC
- copy (and replace) the .sav file for mario 3D Land
- Put SD card on 3DS
- Put MicroSD with Mario 3D Land on Flashcart
- Launch Mario 3D Land.

Ahhh,,,I didn't know you had to shut the console down. I was just hot swapping games. I'll give that a try. Cheers

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice

    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah

    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze

    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in

    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
