[Masq]

I was playing on gambatte-speedrun emulator and I just got gameyob on my 3ds I tried to transfer the save file over but when I load into gameyob but it just gave me the new game screen. I am playing pokemon blue by the way.

Find out the save type of each emulator then convert to the format u need

They both save in a .sav.

Do you want to use your emulator save for the 3ds?

They both save in a .sav.

A file extention does not mean they r the same type

They both save in a .sav.

Are they both the exact same size? If they are and they're both an exact KB size, they're likely both headerless as well and should be in the same format.

Even with a header, they're probably comparable. You just need to compare them in hex. It might be as simple as removing or adding a header or even no change at all.

How do I compare them in hex and add or remove a header?

HxD

But how

 

[godreborn]

it would take too long to explain. I could try to do it for you. doesn't twilight menu use gameyob? you're trying to get this to work on the 3ds, correct?

yes

 

[godreborn]

send me the save, I'll find the game (usa version?), make a new save (how do you save in the game, since I've never played it), then see how the save compares.

Send you the pc emulator save to transfer to 3ds?

 

[godreborn]

yes, whichever save you're trying to get working;

it wont let me upload it. it says it doesn't have an allowed extension

 

[godreborn]

put it in a zip file.

 

[Masq]

hows it going?

 

[godreborn]

this is an extremely difficult save. I have what I think is the header, but injecting saved data into it doesn't work. I would need at least a couple saves made by both emulators (same size) to see what's what. all I can do now is guess.

 

[Masq]

so go into both emulators save take the sav file out of the directory and repeat a couple times.
