Worked great.

Saved me 200 hours lol

Thank you!

Edit: Discovered one of my weapons is glitched or something after converting. A Hunting Horn, selecting it causes my game to freeze. And some of my registered sets in Equipment Sets menu causes game to freeze also.

The Japanese DLC that got removed from MHGen is:

- a Hunting Horn that looks like a frying pan with an egg
- Fake Tama armors (these use the same special item than the HH to be crafted)
- Salmon Fillet Palico Gear
- Monster HUnter Stories palico gear
- Macross Palico Gear

The rest of the Japanese DLC got localized, probably that's what is giving you a hard time
 
It crashes for me for some reason. Once I drop the system file on the .exe it starts but then crashes. Any ideas?
 
U need to put the system file in the same folder as the .exe files. Create a folder and put everything into it. Had the same problem and managed to figure it out. Works like a charm. Looks like all the time i spent playing MHX has been put to good use. Thanks OP for this!
 
I have to import my save by going to "Import ExtData" right? There is an error whenever I select the "Import Save" option.

Nevermind it was "Import Extdata". I got my Cross save on there but it replaced the Gen save I started but that's no big deal.
 
nvm. it worked. but my name is ??? coz it was in japanese. how can i change it to a real name? :(

Are these Japanese friends? Cause you won't be able to play with them anymore.

If you didn't name your character something in english in MHX, you can't change it. There might be some save editor with this feature but if not, you're stuck with it.
 
I found putting the "system" file in the same folder as cgen.exe, then dragging onto cgen.exe fixed the crashing issues

Also I would love if this program removed all DLC and content not available in MHGen, had to save edit to change names of a few things.

Edit: Use this to change character and cat names https://mega.nz/#!w9lDCTwI!M3H9cOngwvwEmaoASAIN_OhNxotshatnaLbd5aGC9VA
Link from MHX save editing thread.
(The second from the top)
Also change tabs in the save editor before you "save and exit" as it dosent always save properly + remove spaces from file path e.g. Change "New folder" to "NewFolder".
I'm pretty sure you can use this after converting, but I recommend using before conversion.

Do I have to be on custom firmware to do this or it can work on ofw ?

If its cfw only, can someone do it for me then send me the save ?

If you want to use JKSM you need cfw. Not sure if it'll work with any other save data manager, because I couldn't even open MHX with any other save manager. Might have just been my system though.
 
oh boy seem like i'm screwed....

Do giving my SD card files to someone on CFW to do this for me would work tho ?
 
I used the latest FBI, it lets you browse to extdata and copy to SD, and it actually shows up as monster hunter X as opposed to "00001554". I guess the non CIA version would work.

Don't make me regret this guys, but you can bypass the ID check performed by holding L + R while the 3DSX boots. Target a title it can run with, hold L + R, and you will have the same menu the CIA version has. Since MHX/MHG save to extdata you can access their data this way. It will NOT be able to open saves this way, but ExtData is fine.

Hi I am a noob here. I have 3 3DS now
1st one is N3DSLL JP playing MHX with OFW 11.XX
2nd one is N3DSXL US playing MHGEN with OFW 11.XX
3rd one is 3DS CFW JP
I copied MHX save from the 1st one and tried to use JKSM to export extdata, but JKSM is fail. any idea or work around for this. All I want is just convert my save from MHX on JP to MHGEN on US.
