Homebrew How do you transfer Gateway Saves into Luma CFW?

[jackshinobi23]

So I used to play my 3DS on gateway using browser exploit so since their website went dead, I couldn't boot up gateway so I installed LUMA and updated my sysnand to 11.10, everything went ok, Luma up and running, CIAs installing, Games opening up smoothly until I found out that I need to use Gateway to transfer and convert save files to be usable in CFW. I still have the red card but can't get Gateway working.

Please help, anybody? I don't want my over 300 hours of MHG and Fantasy Life to wash away, plus 200 hours of my Rune Factory 4. T_T

Tried that one, I need to use Gateway which I couldn't get it to work, due to my Gateway exploit being browser and their website is long gone.

Do you still have a Gateway emuNAND? If not, you may be out of luck.

I think gateway died with 11.3 or 11.2. the only thing I can think of is to give your saves to someone who can boot gateway, then have them convert the saves. there are some people on this board who will do it for you. I have a gateway but no NAND backup from that firmware. I think you can do a ctr transfer though, but I don't know much about that procedure. however, if successful, you may be able to convert these saves yourself.

Update to B9S but don't update your firmware. Then follow https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-using-luma3ds-gateway-on-b9s.431691. You'll be able to use your Gateway card. Then you can follow the saves guide Amanda linked.
