Hello there,

I am currently facing some Problem I hope any of you can help me with.

Originally I started playing the remastered ( remastered ) Friends of mineral town game on my PC.
I then used Checkpoint to transfer the save to the switch and continued playing there.

The weird thing here is, that I cant transfer the save back.
When I put it in the correct folder the Pc game does not recognize it ( its not visible in the game ).

Any ideas on this ?

I just exported the switchs save once with checkpoint.
I then replaced the save files ( DPlaydata_[slotId] )
With the PC ones ( located in %APPDATA% )
The directory was called SoSFoMT if I remember correctly

So I've dumped my switch nand and used a tool to dump all my Switches save file (found here:https://gbatemp.net/threads/extract-save-from-nand-backup.514261/page-2#post-8597227) and was able to locate my FoMT save file. Unfortunately when I try to replace the PC saves with the ones from my Switch, the PC version of the game just doesn't recognize them. The file names are all formatted the same and I tried looking at all the saves in a hex editor but I clearly don't know what I'm looking for.

Can someone smarter than me help or just let me know that what I want to do is impossible? Thanks.

    That's a relief to hear. Do you know what happened?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Any idea what happened? I hope that your brother's doing good.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But you still don't know what it was?
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Has he had seizures before?
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    apparently stress can cause seizures, my brother had one during a test once
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had one before that, and never had one since
