hi,i tried to use JKSM to back up the save game from pokemon prism to use it on PC and vice versa.
but the results was 3 files
rsm1.dat
rsm2.dat
sav.dat

the sav.dat is 32.02 KB

the save game used on emulator is pokemon.sav and the size is 32.0 KB
so it won't work.

any way to backup the save game and use it on other emulators?

Which PC emulator are you using, and how did you obtain the .sav file from PC?
 
It has something to do with RTC data I think. You should be able to just add the missing bytes to the sav.dat file with a HEX Editor to get it to the same size (32,812kB should work) as a VBA/BGB/Gambatte save file to make it work. At least that's what I always did with Crystal
 
did that worked?

I got it to work by doing what MichiS97 suggested. VBA-M save files are bigger than the 3DS ones, but trimming them down in a HEX editor got it to work. To further verify, I took a save from my Android emulator, My OldBoy!, and found it to be smaller. Adding bytes to that save got it to work. So I'm assuming as long as the file size matches the 3DS one it should work.

where should i add the bytes? or it doesn't matter where i add them?

Both my trims/extensions were done at the end of the file. When I had to add bytes I just added FF or 00s....Some of my saves were padded with FF while others were padded with 00. Did matter to the 3DS though as long as they were the same file size.
