That's one benefit of RAM hacking, you should be able to inject a previous RAM file.
Hoping the original RAM file is not corrupted.
Did you even read the first post? Your firmware is compatible with the homebrew method.
ok so i accidentally updated my ds to 10.0, has anyone tested it on this firmware and confirmed it to work/not work yet?
edit: if not i'll try it

marc how do you convert an old ram file into compatibility with the new editor?

I think that should be possible, I mean if you just literally c+p Player 2's entire data into the P1 slot. It wouldn't "swap" the mayors only make your mayor essentially your 2nd character via having the same name, look, inventory, face etc.

Use an hex editor and truncate from 0x07ffff the file. Make sure it becomes a 524288 bytes file.
It means the savegame header in RAM could not be found. That's weird if you've been injecting until now with no problems. I guess I know the answer but... did you inject with the game on?

I injected it after I had just created a new town (before the game actually had a save-ram)
I just had to get up to the point where I could save and then I was allowed to inject
home brew method tested on 10.0.0-27U (NA new 3DS XL) verified working
(granted I've only been able to edit my town once because of awful internet so I can't access yt/hb)
I edited my acre layout, removed pwps, moved buildings/villagers, removed trees/weeds/shells/rocks, watered flowers

Hello! My friend is having a problem with her acnlram.bin file actually not appearing. Before the newest Save Editor came out, she was able to get her file every time she dumped her game, but now it doesn't seem to work. Her firmware is 8.0.1 (something like that) and it was working for her before the new update came out. Could anyone help find a solution?
The ram method isn't even suppose to work on anything but 9.0 to 9.5.0-22, so she was lucky it did work on her 8.x 3ds. Update to 9.2 and it should work again.
The editor doesn't have anything to do with this.
Which method is she using? The old files in SD, the QRs or the latest bookmarks one?
There's no possible way for her to update to 9.2 without her ds updating to the latest version though?

She's using the latest bookmarks but everytime she dumps her file with the browser, nothing appears on her sd card.
Oh yes there is
She needs to setup rxtools first. Then follow this guide
But wait for marc_max's reply before doing this, maybe he has an easier solution.
Oh ok! Thank you so much!Oh yes there is

you seem to already have found a solution, but has your friend tried remaking the bookmarks? i have a 3ds at 8.0.0-18 and it's pretty finicky with ram dumping and i remember when making my bookmarks i had to try about 5 times before it worked, so it could be same for your friend.Oh ok! Thank you so much!
Has anyone lost their town because the data theyre trying to inject was "not the same as the data last saved"?
have you gotten it back successfully?
something went wrong somewhere and i no longer have the data for my digital copy (which i was also able to hack successfully)
when i started up my game, it told me it "cannot use the data as it was not the data last saved"
i tried injecting it twice more (and i verified that the data i was injecting was the data i'd meant to inject)
now, i'd deleted the data and i'm trying to see if i can save my old town over the bs town i'm creating.

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one -
@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
