[Minikea]

I got exactly the same problem but with Mario & Rabbids ;(

for Mario & Rabbids, i can edit the save and reinject it with yallarenuts. i did not test with checkpoint.

would you mind sending a copy of the save to me?

I did just test with Checkpoint and no problem.
I edited "myCurrencies" and the changes are OK.

the path should be checkpoint/saves/0x010067300059A000 0x010067300059A000/01/user/
and there should be 4 files here.
I edited RKB1_Slot.SAVE

Hi guys, sorry to ask. I have done zero modding to my switch so far.
I know about Fusee Gelee and how to get into RCM.
I have never run a payload or anything as yet.

Any chase someone could list all the things I need to be able to use checkpoint?
I should be able to do the rest of the leg work myself, just need a starting point.
Much appreciated

You need homebrew to use checkpoint. Here's a link to a guide: https://t3chnolog1c.github.io/SwitchGuide/

Kind of unrelated, but does anyone know how to use the tools SciresM released to decrypt and re-encrypt splatoon saves? https://t.co/ceOMDgwDYD

You tested Mario & Rabbids? Or XC2?

Mario & Rabbids.
I do not own XC2 to test.

Does this work on SX OS?

 

[josukal]

I copied the files to sd:/switch/Checkpoint

then booted sx os and opened album while holding R, but album is closing immediately then.

am I doing something wrong or is it just not working with sx os?

Do you have the hbmenu.nro file on the root of your micro sd card?

Thank you, I was missing that file. Now it works!

So are you saying that Checkpoint is working fine with SX OS? Also what is your firmware version.

Can someone else test and confirm it please?

my converted save files for BOTW never seem to be found by checkpoint, instead when plugging the sd card back in the computer it deletes anything that was in the folder...

**EDIT**

I can now see the saves and restore them, but restoring only wipes the existing BOTW save. Any help anyone?

**EDIT**

rebooted the switch a couple times and tried again, finally worked!!!

Kind of a noob question since I never used this. I'm planning to unlink my Nintendo account and it gave me a warning that my saves will no longer work or be deleted. If I backup my save with checkpoint and create a new profile, would I be able to use the old save tied to my Nintendo link account to a new profile? I know xbox/ps3 back in the day needed a profile resigner but not sure if this is the case with nintendo.
