Hacking XC Retail Save to GW?

[VerseHell]

It quits normally, and even MH4U and SSB quit normally on a n3ds.

How do I install/launch Pasta CFW after Ninjhax is installed? Also, the backup of XC finished, but game is in 2 parts (CAFE.3d0 and CAFE.3d1); how do I merge them into one 3ds file?

 

[VerseHell]

Just start it from the homebrew launcher.

Ninjhax? How do I open the menu? Sorry, am new to this stuff

Also, the backup of XC finished, but game is in 2 parts (CAFE.3d0 and CAFE.3d1); how do I merge them into one 3ds file?

You should watch this :


And to merge the two parts, hold shift, right on the folder where you put the 2 parts, click on 'open a command window here' then type this :

copy /b CAFE.3d0 + CAFE.3d1 Xenoblade.3dz

Thanks for the video, it is helpful
Do you know how to merge the 2 XC 3D parts that were created through the GW backingup? How do I go about merging them?

I edited my post if you didn't see it.

I installed Ninjhax and Pasta. Once I launch Pasta, how do I know if it booted and is running?

 

[VerseHell]

If you can start sdf, that's mean you're in pasta mode.

How do I install SDF in SysNAND?

 

[VerseHell]

Didn't we explain you that earlier? Boot gateway mod in sysnand then use the 3ds version of bbm to install the cia version of sdf.

I extracted the XC save, how do I import it to GW? Do I need to rename files or anything? Extracted save files are in filer folder named 20150521163055... Not sure how to proceed...

 

[VerseHell]

1. Boot gw mode (normally this time)
2. Mount your Game
3. Switch over to SD and highlight your save
4.Press L + A and then A to create 000400000FF40A00.sav (CTR Card is no longer broken!)
5. Turn your 3DS off (don't start the game yet) and connect the internal microSD CARD with your PC
6. Copy 000400000FF40A00.sav and paste it in the same folder (your micro-sd card root), rename the copy with your title id (should be 000400000F700100 for the US version)
7. Put your microSD Card back into your 3DS
8. Turn your 3DS and boot gw mode
9. Mount your Game and start it

I can't mount XC, it gives fragmentation error... My mSD card is 8GB total, but was about 5GB size after EmuNAND creation... Do I need a larger mSD card?

 

[VerseHell]

What is the size of your xenoblade rom ? It should be 4GB (or 3.7 trimmed)

What is the size of your xenoblade rom ? It should be 4GB (or 3.7 trimmed)

It was created in 2 parts, 2097152kb each, merged file was 4194304kb.

- First try to delete the rom and copy it again.
- If it doesn't work, backup all your roms, format your gw micro sd then copy the roms back 1 by 1. (in the order you want them to show up)

 

[Skeet1983]

Do the roms need to be named by the four letter ID (ex: AKHE), or can they be named whatever I want? Also, what format does the Gateway mSD need to be in?

 

[VerseHell]

- whatever you want
- exfat for the red card, fat32 for the blue.

 

[Skeet1983]

I think there is something wrong with the XC backup... I removed everything from the Gateway Red Card mSD except for XC. Still gives fragmentation error when trying to mount.
Do I need to trim the XC backup? If yes, how do I do that and does trimming hurt game in any way?

Update: Now my saves are corrupted for Pokemon OR, Pk Y, and Animal Crossing NL. Is that because I removed the games and recopied them?
