Ok, Update on save transfers

I found the folder for FFTA, got my save files from my GBA catridge, copied it over and launch the game. Threw me an error, told me to restart the console. So whoever mentioned encryption before was right. No save transfers :(

Also, just a question, could it be possible that the save transfer didnt work because the save file generated by the 3DS was 192kb, but the GBA save rip was only 64kb? Could i change this with the footer?

Is this past only? I got a 4.2 3ds xl and gateway with 9.8 emunand...
And I just gave my friend my 2ds on 9.2 with cubic ninja and pasta :( lol. Do I get to give him good news of gba games for himself?
Anyway to somehow have the mset for pasta and gateway? I guess just keeping that nds flash cart with me and reinstalling? I haven't messed with the pasta mset but this is just me thinking outloud?

If you have GW, why dont you update sysnand to 9.2 and run CN through GW?

I like just starting gateway via mset... not browser... unless on 9.2 I can do this now with mset? And ur saying... what exactly... get a .3ds of cubic ninna... get on gatway... run the CN exploit and have pasta? Cause like I said in my previous post I gave my CN yo my buddy and 2ds. Just a Lil confused what ya saying bro...

Also could I just setup pasta with mset on a separate SD card and just pop it in to run pasta and gba games from my 4.2 console... and pop other back in and run gatway emunand and what not and no problems as far as the files modified from this gba stuff?

There's no MSET on 9.2 yet, but cant you get the cubic ninja rom, put it on your GW, and run the exploit like that?

Idk if trying to run pasta from a cubic ninja off gateway in emunand will work or not... I haven't read if anyone has tested that or not ya no? I guess I was confused by u when u said to update... theres no need to update? Unless this gba thing requires firmware hire then 4.2 that cubic ninja might kick me back to after launching pasta???
I might just try and get mset pasta running with a cia installer on 4.2 from a separate SD card and just swap em back and forth. Until we can install gba games like this native in gatway it prolly easiest I would guess

It's not the fact of pasta working on 9.2. I know this I set up my buddy on my 9.2 2ds with CN and pasta... it's the fact of launching cubic ninja off my red gatway card and launching pasta from my gatway emunand and seeing if I can get these gba games via that way... or just using a different SD card and installing pasta via mset on 4.2. Which I think I'm just gonna do

since both pasta and gateway mode are both cfw your might crash your 3ds if try to launch a cfw off a cfw. And pasta patches sysnand not emunand. I imagine that it won't work. I could be wrong.

Yeah which is why I was leaning towards just using separate clean SD card for gba games off pasta on 4.2. Some guy up there was talking with me about pasta off CN off my gatway and I just basically saying I've never seen anyone post anything about it or what would happen. Tbh I'd rather just swap am SD card and launch the settings app to get into my pasta/gateway depending on SD card in... instead of launching gateway... launching cubic ninja... using the exploit... Running pasta... then running gba games lol....
Dammit gateway just add this shiz already....

I just realized something. Maybe gateway mode can install the gba cias, or have you already tried that?

I'm currently using Gateway's 9.7 emunand and I patched the AGB_FIRM and did a Pokemon Emerald CIA.

Guess what?

Black screen and a crash when I open the game. I have to force power off my 3ds.


Ok got it, thanks. Here it is: 7b058a7aea5bfbb352026727ebd87e17

Thanks. Now I just have to find a dump which matches that checksum.

EDIT: Looks like your checksum matches a romhack named Pokemon Flora Sky, which has a base of Pokemon Emerald.
