ROM Hack RELEASE MHGU Save Editor

[Entoptical]

Hi guys, seems like the attached file that I download from the 1st post is giving me errors. Im unable to open the .rar file. They said its unknown format or damaged. Anyone can reupload that file?

Rename the file to not have any extension. It's not actually a .rar file

This may be a whole lot to ask from some
But could someone just upload a save that’s maxed out and a easier step by step to edit it as my own. I lost my old save to transfer over and don’t want to start over but start only from where I left off.

The save file in the original post is for mhgu and pretty complete (from where mhgen left off)

Thanks okay but Im stupid. What extension should I rename to? I removed .rar and I cant open anything.

It is weird, the system file is just like a raw document. It is the file you import to your switch with checkpoint or another homebrew save backup tool, so you don't open it on PC by itself. If you want to open the file on PC, you will need the .exe program I posted ( that one is a real .rar file). Don't you just want to load the file to switch and play though? Do you have checkpoint in Homebrew?

Is there a video guide on how to successfully do this for switch?

yea I downloaded the MHGUsaveeditor.rar attachment but I kept getting an error. I don't see the .exe file anywhere because I couldn't open that attachment that I downloaded. I tried it on my laptop as well as another desktop and both return me an error of a damaged file. I wanted just the .exe file to edit my current game. haha..

Hey there
Im a little bit confused, can I use your modded tool just to save edit my MHGU file on my switch for some charms for example?
And what do I need to do that? Install homwbrew on my switch, then Checkpoint and with this I could use your editing tool, correct?

And do you know how I can get my MHGU file from my switch to my sd cart?

Yeah once in Homebrew, load checkpoint. Choose backup save then put your sd card on your PC and open the file in your checkpoint MHGU folder called "system". Charm editing must reflect real charms to work (link to post with details in main post).

Then save your new save and open checkpoint again and ''restore" the edited save

Yeah, I know this with those legal charms. Did this back on my 3DS for MHGen
I just bought a switch so didnt install homebrew by now.

Is it a Problem that my MHGU safe file is on my switch and not on my SD cart?

Nah checkpoint works fine. But you need homebrew so there's always risk of ban

Are there (real) reports of people who got banned for it? Cant remeber exactly but when I did it on my 3DS it wasnt the case. I dont wanna play online or broke shit, just some nice charms lol.

Hi, could anybody help me ? i imported the save data from mhxx but when i go to my equipment (in mhgu) the game got freezed and make a strange noise i check my item box but i dont see any dlc items

 

[Keno77]

Okay, after a little bit of trying I figured out my switch is one of the newer ones (since July 2018) which are at the moment unhackable.....

Edit: I'm a dumbass download the wrong editor lmao

[K24]

hi, can i use this tools to edit my MHGU switch save files?
if its possible, how can i extract my save files from my switch?
thanks

 

[Keno77]

Ok, nervermind. I was just stupid, my new switch has XAJ7003, so its hackable after all lol. Did it now with a paperclip! Thanks @Entoptical

The editor is not loading my save and i get errors, can you see what is going on? I transfered my save to switch the official way.

You need to hack your Switch to install a CFW, for example Homebrew. Then you need a savemanager app for Homebrew like Checkpoint where you can export your MHGU file and edit it with this MHU save file editor. Then you import the edited file back with the savemanager app and your done.

Thanks, i know how to export and re inject a save it is just that i tested a fresh save and it works great on the editor while my transfered save from generations is not it gets stuck at loading save and never loads
