my negligence , ns with 1.01 update patch version use encrypted file
Does that mean we have to use the tool twice? (Decrypt, remove dlc then encrypt again?) Will try after work asap. Anyway, thank you for the heads up! :)

EDIT: Tool not necessary (as confirmed by OP) for NS Bloodstained ROTN 1.01 and PC CODEX version (in my case). Here's what I did:
1. NS: Play Bloodstained ROTN and create initial save file
2. NS: Use Checkpoint to create a back-up of the save file in your SD card
3. PC: Go to C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\BloodstainedRotN\Saved\SaveGames\ directory to locate your .sav files
4. PC: Rename Story_Slot0.sav (or your desired save file number) to Story_Slot0 then overwrite the file(s) you have in your SD card. I did not include the System_Slot/System_Slot.sav
5. NS: Use Checkpoint to restore the updated save file

In case you have a different version, please use the tool provided by the OP to decrypt and removeDLC before copying it to your SD card.

Hello I'm trying to follow the instructions in this thread to switch back and forth my saves but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I actually did succesfully transfer my save from the Switch to the PC, at first it told me there was DLC missing on the PC version so I acquired the DLC and that allowed me to use the save that I started on the Switch version.

However when I attempt to transfer from the PC version back to the Switch version I'm also told that there is missing DLC. So I followed the instructions on this thread in order to patch the "hasdlcs" string with all 00s yet when I do this the Switch Version does not recognize my save, instead I see a greyed out top save slot that still says "New Game" and has an exclamation point beside it. I've tried both encrypted and decrypted versions but the only save my Switch will recognize is the encrypted save straight from my PC with "hasdlcs" intact, which obviously still refuses to load. Does anybody know what I may be doing wrong?

Hey there, just curious if anyone can explain how I can do this with a PC save to a PS4 save, the instructions are not the clearest for me to understand I'm afraid.

Since patch 1.02 the files can be easily exchanged between PC and switch. Only the file extension .SAV has to be removed from the switch.

Doesn't seem to want to work for me no matter what I have tried. Going from Switch to PC version and get the DLC issues (though DLC is installed on both). Edit out the DLC flag and end up with the greyed out exclamation issue. Encrypted or not, same thing.

If anyone is having trouble with going from PC to PS4, here are more explicit steps:
1. Decrypt PC save with Zestiva's handy little tool
2. Start a game in PS4, save it in the earliest save room, and download that save to a USB
3. Run Save Wizard, open the PS4 save in Advanced Mode
4. Click the Import File button on the top right of the Advanced Mode window and select the decrypted PC save, then apply changes
5. Download the modified save from your USB back into your PS4

No file renaming required. You may have to use a hex editor after step 1 if you have DLC on the PC but not on PS4.

Isn't working for my 1.02 PS4 save. When I convert and remove dlc flag the save appears but doesn't load, only shows a new save

EDIT: Got it working. Use this tool, in Hxd copy from the Steam_DLC.dat or the Gog_DLC.dat depending on your platform (Gog one works for origin as well) and then replace your DLC path from your PS4 save you exported with the bytes from the dat. Then just enter this in cmd, provided you can run the jar in the first place without any errors. Make a .bat file with this.
Code:
java -jar Bloodstained_RotN_SaveConverter.jar -encrypt "input.sav" "output.sav"
java -jar Bloodstained_RotN_SaveConverter.jar -checksum "output.sav"
