So with JKSM's "main" file, you can edit Pokemon and stuff and I don't know if that is the same for Mario Kart 7's save editor, so how can do I do both of the save editors with Checkpoint?

And I need space for Pokemon Ultra Sun in my SD card, so I am wondering if like there is some extra data or trash in SD card which I can remove...

Thanks!!!:D:D:D

The following rules and guidelines on forum decency or "netiquette" are all mostly common sense, but we know some members lack any common sense so we've listed them here for you to review and hopefully abide by:
  • All posts should be made in legible English. Do not make posts or topics in foreign languages, they are likely to be closed. We will be lenient on this rule from time to time as long as it doesn't become a habit amongst members.
  • Before you start a topic, perform a search to see if the question or topic you wish to create has been made before. If it has, post in the topic that already exists. Duplicate topics will be closed.
  • Please make the topic title you are creating descriptive, clearly reflecting the topic you are addressing. Do not make generic titles such as "Question", "I need help", or in full capitals, with an obscene amount of periods, exclamation marks, question marks, etc. These topics will probably go unnoticed, whereas a topic with a descriptive title will gain more interest.
  • Stay on topic; posts that do not may be removed. If you wish to discuss a different subject take it to the proper thread.
  • When replying to a topic, don't; unless you have something meaningful to say or something that will contribute to the discussion. Posts such as "Yes", "I agree", "LOL", "When will it be dumped?" or "When will it be translated?"; and nothing but images/emoticons or internet memes are useless and are wasteful on the servers.

  • Show some restraint on the amount of images you post. Posts or topics with many images are a strain on dial-up users, so please be courteous.
  • Do not apply default styles to all of your posts (colors/size etc).
  • If one of your posts is removed don't repost it without staff permission, this is considered disrespectful and may result in a warning increase.
  • When posting please refrain from double/triple/etc posting and from creating multiple topics about the same subject.
  • Don't make secondary accounts, duplicate accounts will be banned.
  • Avoid bumping (reviving) old or new topics; they'll be replied to when they're replied to.
  • Use the report function! If you see someone breaking a rule, report it. Don't reply to a post you've just reported and don't write an essay for the report reason but DO make it clear why it should be removed.

hi there! it would have been more better if you posted in the correct topic.

if you had already made a backup save file of mk7, you will notice two files being "system1" and "system2" for example (they are two numbers by random from 1 to 9).

after using the editor, which i linked to you - assume you did this for only "system1", delete "system2". then copy + paste "system1" and rename that to "system2". your save file should then be ready to be imported back to the 3ds!

also, unfortunately, no there's usually no other way to save extra data. i highly suggest you getting a bigger sd card. maybe even as big as 32gb in my opinion.

this topic can be closed now. dotarice

edit 7/13/18: i appreciate it porkiewpyne, but i do not want anyone to be quoting me. i have to do this.

probably because most of these questions can be answered with a google search or even a forum search, but alas, the damage is already done, my approach would've been to call you out and answer, being vague and condescending only gets you as far as the offender... Anyway...

Checkpoint and JKSM are only to extract the save files and inject them back once they've been edited, their respective editors are separate, PKSM and... whatever MK7 uses, a quick search over google will give you pretty accurate results.

As far as I know the 3DS and Nintendo 3DS folders are the only essential ones as well as the boot.firm file, but I'd suggest you upgrade your SD card, I doubt cleaning misc. files would free enough space to house a big game like Pokemon USUM.

Your wrong with "a quick search over google", I have searched a lot but I can't find the answer. Besides, checkpoint is the newer thing and it is better to use, so that is why I asked if there was still a need to use JKSM

But the only files I have are three .sav files in one folder created by checkpoint

Oh now I get it, yes, they work almost exactly the same, Checkpoint just has a better Ui and compatibility, and is still being developed, you should be able to follow the same exact steps, albeit with a different format, personally I still use JKSM because it loads titles faster and I'm more familiar with it, you could just try it and if you find any problems go back to JKSM, Checkpoint is still useful to mass-backup saves, but I'm 90% sure you'll face no problems.
