Umm, yeah, the save is encrypted with a key.
The key is not static but dynamic though. Its generated based on some info in the savegame.

Is your brain in your middle toe?
The entire contents of the save is encrypted with an AES256 key, with a CRC checksum in the header.
That is... wrong. It uses an AES128 key.

there's a script for decrypting it. You apparently need the location of where the save is stored on your system to generate the key to decrypt it, though (something I'm working finding, myself. I'll get it soon enough, but this a a little outside my normal venues when dealing with code/save edits)

uh, no. You only need the path to decrypt encrypted romfs files. All the information needed to decrypt the save in in SciresM's script.

as expected, I was misinterpretation the 'tip' on the github for the scriesm script. Apparently my Crypto.Cypher AES resources were somehow installed as 32 bit (if I'm reading this error right) fixed that. just need it to recognize the save as an encrypted splatoon 2 save

uh what? i assume the tip was my comment on the nisasyst script, which is totally different from the save decryption script

    I'm so pumped, NCAA football video game is back after a 10 year hiatus, coming to SeriesS/X, PS5 in July.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Wish they would let us play the NCAA football 14 on newer xbox, its one of the only games I love and own on disc still, that is not back compatible, bs.
  • AdenTheThird @ AdenTheThird:
    @BigOnYa My dad recently bought a spare Series X off of me, got game pass, and saw Madden '24 on Game Pass, decided to try it out.

    ...He was a bit taken aback by the 60GB download size. Poor guy's still living in the 90s!

  • AdenTheThird @ AdenTheThird:
    @K3Nv2 He was looking into consoles for his house anyway (for my younger siblings and himself) and I had a spare XSX and Switch I ended up selling him at pretty steep cuts. I would just give them to him, but I did buy them with the intent to sell them... and college is super expensive.
