I've installed many games and have been playing for awhile now. If I install a newer released game on my Sky3DS using a more recent template
file with private header injected, will this mess up my previously installed save files?

I doubt it. But always backup your saves to be safe..

I've got 2 quick questions about Diskwriter.
What does Options>Image Name Update do?
Is there another way to rename the games listed in Diskwriter, other then editing the Setting.ini file?

1. If the template gets changed or updated, the update image name just shows the title of the game instead of the usual BXLLE game code.
2. Settings. ini or renaming it manually

1. Ah, ok. Thanks.
2. How would I rename it manually? If it's the file name for the .3ds file, then it's already named to what I want it to be.

I got my Sky3ds earlier today. :yay3ds:
I added Sonic Generations, opened it/played a bit and let it save. Then thought I would download a 100% save game, because I just want to play whatever stage right off the bat. But, I'm having a problem.
I exited the game and cycled to the next game so the save data got moved from EEPROM.
I then used this to dump the save data.
When I opened the saveDataBackup folder that tool creates, I see data0, data1 and data2, the problem being the save I downloaded is one save, in .sav format as it should be.

I'm not sure how to make the save I downloaded work.
If anyone could help, that'll be great.
Thanks :)

Use some homebrew (like svdt) to do it. Much easier.

And then there was the sky3ds+, which will have a different process... And a different way to edit in headers... What a pain.

The headers won't be a problem with the new one. It's the online play that might make it easier for you to be spotted. As far as I know, headers will be added to the CFG file. Which sadly only they will be providing, like the old school templates. Unless it supports 3dz then that's a different story. But one thing is for sure. 100% offline play from the looks of things now.

We'll just have to wait until they start shipping them to resellers.

Yes It's normal, in the friends list it will show the game ID and nothing to do with the header. The header is for unique ID for online purposes. If you're able to go online in mh4 then yes, it works, but if you're not able to, then nope.

Header has nothing to do with the dlc. You can download dlc as long as you can have access to the eShop, as for street pass it's a game feature, again, nothing with the header. You just need to make sure your street pass data isn't full, you can only have 10 games I think.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze

    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
