Hacking Mario Kart 7 JKSM

[Hyoretsu]

When I try to open my Mario Kart 7 (Gateway) save on JKSM, it always gives me this error: "error opening save archive". How can I import my retail Mario Kart 7 save backup to my Gateway's Mario Kart 7?

You have to have the game save at least once for it to make a save file. Then JKSM will work.

Oh, I didn't see it was a gateway save. In that case, I'd move the .sav file to the JKSV folder of the 3DS's SD card, and see if JKSM can see it.

you have to rename it to 0004000002C23200.sav

How can I import my previous Mario Kart 7 (retail) save? It has 2 folders and 2 dat files.

Gave up on trying to restore my save, now I'm trying to edit my save. When I get the 0004000000030800.sav (0004000000030800 is the Mario Kart 7 titleid), edit it and put it back on my microSD root, the Mario Kart 7 says that the save file is corrupt and deletes the save.

Any thoughts?
