Hacking [HELP] Should I use JKSM or Checkpoint?

[ROMANREIGNS599]

I have tried googling but never got a valid answer.

Thanks!!

Either is fine, however I recommend checkpoint as its the newest and most up to date

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

JKSM produces a "main" file, which is single and is used by PKHEX

Checkpoint also creates this

Did you try looking in sdmc:/3ds/Checkpoint/saves/

Yes, I was talking about that before and there is no file like this... I guess JKSM would be better? Unless it has issues

As I stated in our private messages, there is no reason to use JKSM, since it's out of date and has compatibility issues. You should be using Checkpoint. If you are not getting the files you want, then you are not using Checkpoint properly or there is some other unknown issue going on. Checkpoint does a perfect job outputting decrypted main files for Pokemon save files.

JKSM's is going back to active development status. He's gotta a lot of catching up to do, but i'm kinda excited what direction this app will go in comparison to Checkpoint.

Thanks everyone, I just want to now know that how can I close a thread? I have some previous threads in which I still get answers, even though I find the solution.

You don't have to close the thread as discussion didn't devolve into naming calling or pointless banter.

There is one more save manager you should be aware of called SaveDataFiler, which you cannot find on GBAtemp because it's an official Nintendo SDK app. You might one day run into DLC extdata and save data that neither Checkpoint and JKSM knows how to handle.

As a user of JKSM since 2015 or so I've never had a problem with it. It's been the gold standard of this kind of app until Checkpoint came along - and in my case there's no need to switch.

Personally i use JKSM becuase the version of checkpoint i have crashes if i try to close out to the home menu but im pretty sure they fixed this bug.

CFW is highly recommended.
