hi all, i'm having some trouble with JKSV and hoping someone can help me...coz if i don't fix this, my gf will most likely leave me as she has spent so many hours on this game and i may have just lost her save file!
basically, i updated to the latest CFW (11.0.1 AMS 0.16.2 E) and thought i may as well update to the latest AC version of 1.6.0 (i think i was running 1.4.1 previously, can't be certain though) and the turkey event. after searching online, i came across a guide using JKSV and switchtime (i'm sure many of you already know how this works so won't go into detail).
i followed the instructions, including making a backup of the save (or so i thought), but the game didn't start up after the update. after more searching, i found a fix where you had to hold the + and - keys to boot into management mode (or something like that), eventually it worked...but the game restarted from the very beginning! i didn't go past the registration part so i don't think the game autosaved.
so i thought "that's fine - i made a backup of the save - i'll just restore it". followed the instructions on JKSV...but still nothing! panic mode begins to set in!
a previous post mentioned that the save game creates a 1kb passphrase file only - i have the same issue. i made a backup of mariokart and it created a number of 2mb .dat files which looks correct.
here's the strange thing - when i go into the system settings and select "delete save data", i can see there is an AC save file that is 222mb large.
so i'm really at a lost. i tried deleting the game and reinstalling. i was thinking of reinstalling the 1.4.1 update to the base game, but i can't find that particular update file anywhere.
anybody have any ideas please? thanks in advance!
