You might have seen a similar topic posted to the iPhone and iPod Touch forum but that forum is inactive so I decided to post here since it's active, here's the link to the old topic if you want to reply on it: https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-backup-plants-vs-zombies-2-progress-to-pc.517667/

Ok so I have completed the game Plants vs Zombies 2 on my old iPad 2 I used to use for gaming recently, and I wanted to move the save data file, pp.dat to PC so I can play it in Bleustacks. It's possible to move the iOS version's data to the Android version as they have the same file system and someone I met online did it as well.

I used iExplorer to move the files to PC except in the files there was no pp.dat file. Only got other files and no "No_Backup" folder where it is located. Please help me if you can.

Anyone?

Looks like no one will help me :( please help me I really need to do this before my iPad 2 stops working forever.

Please reply, please?

How rude, no one will reply that's a shame...

I would check the save file with ifunbox or something and compare it with Android's. Try to backup the save data on Android with Titanium Backup or something and compare it with iOS data. It seems no one has the same problem as yours, hence no reply. You might have a better chance posting this on the proper subreddit for this thing.

I did find something that could help transfer iOS data to Bluestacks which is this: https://www.reddit.com/r/PlantsVSZo..._for_syncing_between_ios_and_android_root_is/ I will test this out later when I get time

Ok so in the instructions it said to use a file explorer in Bluestacks and find the xml file it asks me to find, I went to check Android>Data>PvZ2 folder, and the PvZ 2 folder wasn't there. However in Android>OBB the folder was there but only the OBB file. So I'm kinda stuck now.

EDIT: Don't worry used another file explorer and found it

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
