Homebrew Move your saves from m3 to game card?

[Nintendude49]

Is it in anyway possible to put your saves from an emulator (in my case m3 CF) onto a game card. For example, Rogue Agent ROM to Rogue Agent Original?

Or even to other way around?

Perhaps REIN can do this?

I've never used it since the name change, but REIN definitely does this. I used it to transfer saves to and from original carts with my M3 SD. The program has had M3 CF support for even longer than that.

Yes, REIN definitely works with the M3. I've been using it to transfer my save files in and out of my original carts. It's really easy to work with

Only thing is when you're importing saved files over to your original carts, be sure to create some saved data on your original carts first. Otherwise you won't be able to import your M3 saved data into your carts.

Okay, before I try, a few questions...........:

The sites in Japanese, is the .nds file the same way?

What's the newest version of Rein, r17? or is that just a beta?

Is it possible to damage the game cartridge?

The program is fine, r17 will work, I've never had a problem using r16 despite the disclaimer that it's not responsible for destroying your nds game etc etc. I haven't heard people have trouble with rein. Good luck.

The program itself is in English so don't worry. And also, I've used it with over 20 original DS game cards. None of them have ever been corrupted.

The G6 have the option to sent the Save file from DS Card>G6 or G6>Ds Card when you push Select on the game...and M3 is made by the same company, I thought it also have that function???????

To transfer an M3 save to an original game cartridge using M3+Passkey2, you must at some point have to take out the Passkey and insert the original cart only,right?

If that is so and the DS is not flashed will it not hang?

 

[tama_mog]

M3 doesn't do that I don't think, haven't tried.

You can remove the Passkey as soon as the DS has booted to the M3 menu, the DS won't hang. The DS will only crash if you remove something (game cart, Passkey...) from the slot while playing a game, because they are programmed to catch this to prevent corruption of save data.

Thanks, I didn't know that!

Alright, so ive downloaded r17, extracted it. put it on the root of the CF card. and when i try to boot it, it shows the loading, then the top screen goes white, and in the bottom, the light goes out; and everything freezes.

What did i do wrong??

 

[Nintendude49]

Okay, problem solved.

On the M3s, i guess u need to open the file as a demo. If you try to use it as a regular game, its just freezes up.

Works like a champ now! Very nice.
