Homebrew [WIP] PHBank - Pokémon Homebrew Bank

[Ricken]

i wish i knew how to program 3ds homebrew files... (not that i plan to learn anytime soon) then id definitely try to make something to inject this to run beside one of the games (like hold a few buttons, make the bank pop up, then just go back in the game where you left off...) having 100 boxes accessible just like that would be awesome

now that i think about it, a similar reason is what made me ask for a CTR Importable Archive

 

[zinogri]

yeah,already add that resources

That's weird. Do you have any of the Pokemon games installed?

 

[zinogri]

Oh,i just erased all the files then put them again,and it's worked,thanks for your help anyway! o/

 

[redhouane]

Is naming/reordering/rebackgrounding bank boxes coming soon? (also, suggestion: list view for the box jump feature, so you see all the names laid out)

How do I IMPORT the (main) savedata back to ds? I only see the option to export it on the select menu

I'm getting an error:

Problem happened: 0x8
PHBank version: 020001b0
Can't start the viewer. Press any key to exit.

This is the CIA version. I have PCHex++ installed too, so PHBank shares a folder with it. I have transferred my old /bank/ file into the new file structure, but it's not working? It shows this error after the loading screen.

I had this problem 10 minutes ago, solved it by putting the pk folder on root of SD, did you do that? I was forgetting to do this and got that error.
Edit1: backup your actual pk folder with PCHex++ and put the pk folder of PHBank and let it overwrite, let it a try. If the problem persists, probably they're both incompatible

Yes, /pk/ is on my SD Card root.

sd:/
     /pk/
          /data/languagefiles
          /bank/bank file
          /romfs/stuff
          /backup/save backup

Yes, /pk/ is on my SD Card root.

sd:/
     /pk/
          /data/languagefiles
          /bank/bank file
          /romfs/stuff
          /backup/save backup

I strongly think they're incompatible, just try the thing on my Edit from my previous post and let's see
MoreEditsPlease: if that didn't work, put that (clean) pk folder from PHBank and for sure will work.

I should also mention that I have two Pokemon digital games. One of them is my NeoY game (hence it's never been opened as a menu option, only through HANS) and the other is my AS game (which I want to modify). There doesn't seem to be a selector option. I must have to use the .3dsx then, because I can assume that the Y game is taking priority :/

 

[chocolatte]

Well, I believe they are fully incompatible, like you said. I had no issues with a fresh install and my old bank file.

PCHex++ is currently only using the raw data files.
You can still place these files in the the sdmc:/pk/data/ folder; with the latest version of PHBank I had to move them in their own language folder for the translations.

First, I would like to say that this is an awesome program, and that you are awesome. The latest release is so awesome.

But I'm having one issue, which is that I can't seem to move Rayquazas from the bank into Pokémon Y? Only Rayquazas, though; everything else that I've tried works fine. If you have any idea why this might be happening, that would be wonderful!

EDIT: More specifically, I can pick it up with any of the three selection modes, but it just does nothing when I try to put it down in the game box.

Look at the rayquaza moves. Does it have the one where it causes it to mega evolve?

 

[Pneumaticat]

Yes, it does! And that move is only in Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire, so it can't be transferred to X/Y. I see! Thank you! I guess I'll go to the move deleter, then.

The name and background are already handled by the app, but aren't modifiable directly (you can still edit the bank file tho).
The box selector really needs an update, that is just a thing I made for quick move to different boxes.

What do you mean?
PHBank is reading the save from your game and writing it back directly.
For the backups you would need to use tvds/svdt.

@Pneumaticat Yeah, there is some basic filter to avoid forbidden things. There is no real legality checker tho.

Since the Official pokebank is compatible with red/blue/green/yellow, is there plans for phbank to be compatible with them? I know it would probably be extremely difficult but I just thought it would be cool.

I imagine a future where Gen 1-5 are all in VC via the inject method or whatever else with all of them having wireless trading and support with phbank (Although I don't ever expect to have this [At least not for a year+ or something idk]).

Thanks in general for this too! It's awesome
