Did you make the original save with JKSV? I believe the save needs to be decrypted before it can be used on another 3ds.

I just installed super mario 3d land, started a game and created a save in the game. I then went into jksm and was able to save it with no problems.

Congratulations. That is the expected behaviour though. What I'm saying here is that it isn't working for me, and I'm asking if anyone knows why. People telling me that theirs works fine is of no help whatsoever.

So, a lot of people I know have had their Pokemon Sun/Moon saves corrupted after using JKSV, but no matter what I try I can't reproduce it. Any idea ?

So I've tried using JKSM.cia on Rhythm Thief US (cartridge) on my EU N3DS.
The save is just one file called 'data' but you can have multiple profiles on it. I bought it used and the other profile in the second slot is bothering me. After extracting it and checking it on my PC, I saw the filetype was 'suurfkkEepit' and whether I use the basic text editor or a hex editor, the only thing I can make out is my profile's name and the rest is a garbled mess. Any ideas on what else I can try?

Is it possible that the 7/21/2016 cia version of JKSM could cause Pokemon Omega Ruby to register it as my birthday today? It wasn't my Birthday. I backed up the save using another 3DS. And only looked in the Import Save section, didn't do it yet.

Is there a newer cia version? I can't find it, I did see that homebrew-bank version. So maybe that birthday thing is a known issue. I would just like a confirmation.

I also did not see this cia version and just went ahead and installed the one from the OP. How would I best update it? Just install this one with FBI?

If I were to write a programm that can detecte 3DS savegames, is there a way to tell from which game the
savefile originated? Like is the gamecard number somewhere in the savegame file?

It might be the ID's. Fire Emblem fates has 3 different versions that all write to the same archive, but use different IDs. I'll give the db site a look sometime and get it redirected if that's the problem. The Pokemon games do this too.

Where can I find this DB site? I'm going through this right now. It's confusing me because the saves for both Conquest and Birthright are shown in the two different folders with the same names.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
