I've been trying to dump Fire Emblem Fates Conquest from my physical copy of the game onto my SD card using GodMode9, navigating to GAMECART -> the .3ds file (I've also tried the trim.3ds file) -> NCSD image options… -> Build CIA from file, and each time, the dump fails (I've tried selecting decrypt to check if that's the problem, but that also fails). I've verified the file through GodMode9, and it goes through successfully, I've done the whole quadruple format method + H2testw with the SD card with everything coming back clean and functional, and I have 10GB of free space left on the SD card (it's a 32GB card). I even read somewhere that GodMode9 doesn't like special characters, and because the file name has an underscore, despite the fact that I don't think underscores cause problems, I tried renaming the file on GodMode9, but it wouldn't allow me to do so. The file I'm trying to build a CIA from is named 0004000000179600_v00.3ds, if that helps at all.
I've tried just about everything I can find on forums and have no idea what the issue is, so any input from anyone with more knowledge than my newbie self has would be appreciated.
