put it in the root of your card.

put it in the root of your card.

this may sound dumb but which is the root? is it system?
and what did you want me to put in there the DLDI? if so that did not work

 

[ZeWarrior]

root is the page where you are, where system, games, music, etc go. dont put it in a folder just put it in the root.

thank you, thank you it works now!

Hey, the program works great and I love it, however I'm having a few issues using it on Pokemon Diamond. When I first run it (I need to use homebrew), and select load, it only shows Soul Silver and Another game that isn't Pkmn. And when I show all, and select the save for Platinum, and attempt to load it, it either crashes, or takes upwards of an hour to load (That's how long I could be bothered to wait

). Also, I attempted your retail script, and I put in Pkmn Diamond, and clicked load cart, and I got unknown Save file type. So I'm sad now. D:
Incase you feel like ending my blight, I'm using an R4i SDHC, on my DSlite. The update version on my R4 is v1.09b, and I'm using the homebrew you provided. I also DIDN'T DIDL the program, due to homebrew being more stable anyway.

Thanks.

Make sure you have at least one Pokémon captured.
(That was my problem when I tried to use it with HeartGold

)

Need to save at least twice.

 

[JiggleTits]

Worked if I saved twice on my Platinum rom, will try my Diamond Retail card now. Thanks alot, that's kinda a big bit of information, maybe you could stick it on the main page,
Some games require you to save multiple times before they can be properly loaded. If you start a new game, continue through the story untill you have atleast one pokemon, and then save. If you still don't see the game in the load menu, click Show All and it should be there, but be sure that you don't try and load the games .nds instead of .sav.
(I did that quite a few times hehe)
Also,
you obviously need to edit this;
F.A.Q:
Q: Will you be able to edit saves on the original cartridges?
A: No, unfortunately not. The biggest reason is that the DS does not have enough memory to support the entirety of the program in RAM alone. Another is that the internal editing system is not setup to work in that fashion. The final is, I really do not want to try and replace great things like the Nds Backup tool, where my method may be buggy etc etc.
Edit: Saved twice worked for my retail cart too. Love you

Tedious request, but one that I think most of us could enjoy, attempting to put certain items in certain bag pouches can cause me errors, and later on in the game prevent certain triggers.
Would it be too much to ask for you to categorize the items? I.e Selecting the Berries pouch will only display berries.
I know it's tedious and annoying, but it would be infinatly helpful.

Doesn't work with M3DS Sakura?

 

[Porobu]

with sakura homebrew menu but you can load it with touchpod

 

[Knolly]

Really looking forward to the new release! This has been a lifesaver for me since I have a mac, plus it's great for on the fly editing.

Request/suggestion: Could you make a section so we can flag "Events?" Like to activate the various legendary events? This is a one-time type thing so if it takes some significant coding effort than of course just ignore it, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask for convenience.

 

[girugamarc]

looking good. I hope you release the update soon

 

[Chaz.]

Stop posting screenies! Your making me want it more! I love this little app, it's so awesome and a great idea too!

can't wait for next release must have now

You sure? It would probably corrupt your save in it's current state.

Also of note I finally got my US copy of HGSS. I have plugging most my time into getting save dumping working.

Go me! Because I actually managed it! (Yes, I just said I managed to dump my HG save via a homebrew application)

On that note, I have not been able to get anything back onto the cart however. (which sucks)

Since I am working on that my work on PPSEDS has been a little stalled.

 

[Hotzdevil]

as long as you're working to get the new PPSEDS better than before its all that matter's.. Go Chase-san..

Wow, the one for dumping Saves would turn me actualy more on as the Pokesav

When you click "Set Ownership" when editing a Pokemon, it removes the "Shiny" attribute it had before. Sadly r10 can detect if a pokemon is shiny but can't make a pokemon shiny.

Other than that great release, easier to do repetitive jobs on PPSE-DS than on PokeSav. (I really wish they had some kind of batch processing)

Looking forward to r11.

This is because shininess is related to the hex values of it's owner's name.
