Alright, so I've gotten all the way to the making a fake cia part, but why I run the python script it gives me an error at the end, and I'm afraid I'm not technically savvy to know what it means. Could someone translate into laymans terms what's happening here?
And yes, I'm sure I have python 3 installed XD.


Also, that's not the exact same file that I dumped, before someone asks why I'm justgoing in circles.

Change into the directory that the folder is in using the cd command like this "cd H:\3ds\agb_inject\gen_rom.py".
Also add the .cia to the end of the output cia's name.

Ok, first I renamed the save file since it was spitting out some error about a file that already existed, so I thought I'd try to nip that in the bud if that was what it was (before that I did what you said exactly to no dice). Then I opened the cmd prompt straight from the folder since the cd command was giving me a message about invaild directory. But now it's giving me a '[setting error] "-o" takes one parameter' and '[result] Invalid arguments, see 'makerom.exe -help'" (I don't see anything labeled makerom.exe -help). I'm sorry for making trouble, I seem to be floundering about like a fish out of water.

Try using no spaces for the parameters.

I managed to actually get it working now, so thanks for all the help! Hopefully I can at least act as a waypost for other lost users XD

I can confirm that eeprom save injection works just fine!
Finally was able to transfer my old Zelda ALTTP save between unlinked NANDs. :yay3ds:
For some reason gen_rom.py didn't work on my PC first (Windows7 x64 + Python 3.5.1), but I managed to fix it.
Thank you very much, you made my dream come true!
