Hacking acekard2i saves

[Captain Charisma]

how comes all my games are saving as ".sav" instead of ".nds.sav" all of a sudden? it just happened, so all my ".nds.sav" files are not loading and its starting a new game.

Do. A. Search!!!

You just have to change the filetype for saves in the Acekard menu.

yeh i know, sorry, but i wanna know how do this change, now all my games save automatically as ".sav" did the new update for akaio do this?

another newbie changes oficial acekard fw to akaio

and doesnt know the search function on this site...

It's also sad the fact that he/she comes from the UK and yet cannot type in English...

I think we need a pop-up to appear whenever anyone starts a new thread asking if they have used the search function yet.

I mean, come on! I said use the Search and the very next post is the same question (just rephrased).

Okay I'll spell it out for you since you don't know where the search button is here on GBATemp.

Boot up your Acekard.

Tap START --> System Options --> Hit R twice.

Under Save. Ext. Set it to nds.sav.

Perhaps if you had read the changelog so you knew what you were updating to? It mentions the .sav thing.

I am guessing by the way the thread has gone that reading anything that sensible would have seemed like a silly thing to do, in their eyes.
