I have A save of axiom verge that is A cart save. But now I want to install the NSP and use the save on that. Is that possible? Once I install the NSP it doesn't pick up the save file. So I was wonder if their was anything I could do about it.
 
check if cart (real cart or emulated like XCI?) and NSP having same title id or not

Everything is saved on the nand, as long as both versions of the game have the same title id then its fine
 
Seems like they don't have the same id. How can I check that? And it was from A legit cart. But I got the NSP from....somewhere.
 
Yeah I have two different saves in checkpoint. So anything I can do about that? I just want to continue on with my old save.
 
Not sure if this will work. Maybe someone can chime in to confirm as I have not done this myself!
1. Make backup of both saves in checkpoint.
2. Move saves to computer.
3. Make a backups of your backups.
4. Rename the old save to the same as your NSP save.
5. Put edited save on sdcard
6. Restore edited save in checkpoint
7. I’m not responsible if you loose your save. If you keep an untouched copy you will always be able to restore it.

Location of saves on sdcard
sdmc:/switch/Checkpoint/saves

Good luck

4. should be the other way around. Otherwise I think that would work.
 
technically i didn't make another save for the second one yet. but i can. and i'll give it a go when i get a chance. THX either way for the help and time.
 
ok I got it to work so will this work on any game? Or is it A case by case basis? Also thanks again for the help.
 
Does Checkpoint really work on 7.X? Else I know Edizon does the same is up to date.
