Homebrew [Release]JK's SaveManager - Homebrew CIA Save manager.

[Deleted User]

Do you even have Homebrew? You need Homebrew to use this. Download the .3dsx zip attached to the first post, extract it, the move the "3ds" folder to root of your SD card. Access with the Homebrew Launcher.

Yep I just got it yesterday. I'm pretty familiar with the homebrew scene and have been for awhile.

Is there any way to store the save using it's title ID instead of it's name? I'm having quite a few problems with it because it keeps trying to use the game's name.

For one, Story of Seasons and Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns both show up in JKSM as "STORY OF SEASONS," making saves show up in the same folder. And even with the "Japanese Support" cia, Japanese titles basically glitch out upon re-entering the app, and if I ever want to use those saves again, I have to scan my entire list of games just to make those show up.

Making the games save via their title ID's would solve these problems, and I'm sure a few more. How can I get it to do this?

I downloaded the .3DSX zip and copied the folder JKSM with all files to my 3ds folder. When i try to start the .3DSX with homebrew launcher it tells me: "This homebrew exploit doesn't supports the running of the application under goal-titles. Please use another exploit". I use Rosalina v2.0.0.

I have the same problem

If you two are so desperate to use JKSM through the HBL instead of launching it through the CIA, then use Phalk's version of JKSM. It can be launched through Rosalina.

Now i can run it but when I try to export i get an error. I also cant import any file since it doesn't find a backup...

https://github.com/Phalk/JKSM/blob/master/README.md shows the new folder location.

If you have issues with the fork, I would send a message to phalk. If all else fails, use the CIA instead.

I manually created that folders now and it seems to work. Thank you

So if I understand I have two 3DS with CFW and with this tool I can copy save from old one to new ?

is the backup feature when importing a save removed in the latest cia version? I cant seem to find it in the options anymore.

and how do i remove the centering of the text?

i tried using this with the ace attorney trilogy but it returned an error when i opened the game after importing the save, the game works fine without the imported save file, what am i doing wrong?

i made some changes to the rosalina-compatible version of jksm: https://github.com/zweilous/JKSM
these are all very minor if being compared to phalk's fork; there's no point in updating unless it specifically benefits your needs as it does mine. i'm welcome to addressing bugs, but i rarely do programming so my level of expertise is horrible : )

with that being said, if anyone knows why the indent/padding i added in the description text strings in shared.cpp appears inconsistent, let me know.

v2.0.1

• fixed extdata id for pokémon ultra moon. exporting extdata should be fixed now
• minor text changes

v2.0

• jksm is compatible with rosalina thanks to phalk's fork
• makefile is fixed thanks to deathangel74's fork
• all files are moved from "/jksv" to "/3ds/jksm"
• confirmation screen now appears for exporting saves
• removed mass save restore option
• separated savedata and extdata into different mass save backup options
• title data, description, and topbar text color has its own new config option
• "filter.txt" is downloaded from this repository instead of the original one
• "b" button in main menu no longer exits; use "start" instead
• new icon

You should just use Checkpoint instead of JKSM. It is newer, runs better, and is still being updated. https://github.com/BernardoGiordano/Checkpoint/releases

Thank you for this wonderful utility. Useful for migrating to and from cartridge games, and it's even able to import/export virtual console sav files. Erasing cartridges is a cool feature, too.

Hello,
I was trying to transfer a .sav file from gateway to cia, but it did not go so well. I followed this guide https://gbatemp.net/threads/importing-gateway-saves-to-cia-games.425743/
but this seems to be outdated, there were no Cartridge or Cia/Sd options for me in JK save editor.
When I tried the "Browse SD for Data" option, I could navigate to the folder where my .sav file was, but when pushing Y it gave me this error message:
Somehting went wrong writing to the archive file!
Please help me how I could import my old save file. Thank you.

While I am not really sure how to transfer your old save file, JKSM is super outdated. You should use this save manager from now on: https://github.com/BernardoGiordano/Checkpoint/releases

For all those people looking for the last JK_ released CIA version (2017-02-10) which was only on a GitHub repository that seems to now be gone: there was an archive made of that repository shortly after that release which remains on the Internet Archive (though notably not the wayback machine portion the Internet Archive)

If you want the 2017-02-10 CIA download the TAR file from that link and you'll be able to extract the CIA from it with any tool (e.g. 7-zip) that can handle TAR files.

Thanks for this! Was wondering what happened when I got a dead link

Hi - I was looking to convert my Sky3DS+ save to use on a CIA installation of the same game (both dumped from my own cart). However, I'm not seeing a straightforward way to do this using Checkpoint. Am I missing something, or should I still be using this older utility? When I installed (for example) Mario Kart 7 as a cia (from the 3DS dump of my cart) I am not seeing it show up within Checkpoint to allow me to restore the save backup I made from Sky3DS+.

Edit: I figured out a workaround, posted to the Checkpoint thread as that seemed the more appropriate location.

Both should be able to dump from the cart and restore to the installed version. Maybe checkpoint doesn't allow duplicates and just shows the cart? Try without it inserted. It also wouldn't hurt to try this one at least.
