It does, PMD EoS is 128KB eeprom (confirmed by multiple sources).
Even DeSemuME has problems with that.
but that save works on desmume without any problem, can you edit the last save or test it?

And remember, I tried to put the another save (this one the app recognize it) but the cartridge said that the game was corrupted. The save you put yesterday that it worked on Desmume.

It's because DeSmuME considers it's 256KB, so it appends unused bytes at the end.
Editing the save won't make it work with TWLSaveTool, considering what happened.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky doesn't work. It adds an extra 0xFF byte at the beginning of the file. Additionally, I looked at Feroz El Mejor's saves from a few pages ago, and one of them had the first hundred or so bytes zero'd out.

I tried backing up my save, and it had the same problem, except worse. I only got 64KB of the 128KB save. I've attached the save that TWL Save Tool extracted, in addition to one made by my NDS Backup Adapter Plus for reference.

This is not normal, not at all. Well, seeing how bad, and random, it went ...
By the way, the latest build of TWLSaveTool should deliberately prevent you to interact with your EoS cartridge. Tell me if it doesn't.

I tested this save on my R4 and it works, but the TWLSaveTool says that is not compatible, I can have a version where you can force the save injection? I don't know why, but I feel like injecting that save would work on the cartridge.

I tried to edit the save size with Wood on R4 but it didn't changed of size, I'm sure that if the save didn't work, it's going to be something to edit the file size.

The one that you previously used yesterday night. But I don't think it'll work.

I mean the new one, I asked to restore it, then it worked on desmume, I made an export of the save from desmume and that one works on R4 too (The save I posted just before). Now it's only the cartridge the only one that didn't work.

I didn't make any change between the two 1.1 releases, except making it say that it doesn't work with EoS.

I have saves for Pokemon White 1 and 2 created with desmume and I recently bought a original White 2 cartridge (so, I can use it on my Reinand CFW with Pokemover/Pokebank), is there any way to inject my save (from desmume) into my original White 2 cartridge?

Really nice
I succeed to transfer a save from my DSTWO to my retail game (999 : Nine Hours Nine Persons Nine Doors) thanks to your homebrew ! (I have to convert the .sav in raw format beforehand)
THANK YOU

Any idea if PMD: EoS can possibly ever be fixed?
Or is it like, something really weird that EoS does with its save files and no-one really knows how it works?
