One of my friends recently asked me to edit some Pokemon onto his little brother's retail Platinum cart. I used Rudolph's 3-in-1 Backup Tool to take off the save, edited in some Arceus's with Pokesav, and then went to restore it. This is where the problem comes in: I select the save file with the Backup Tool, and select restore, replace the cart when it prompts me, and so on. It seems to go fine, but when I load the retail cart, nothing has changed.

There is still a save file left in the 'NDS_Backup' folder that when I open with Pokesav, has all the changes, so therefore I assume that it's not restoring the save properly.

Has anyone else had this problem? Or does anyone know a solution, maybe an alternative program? I did find 'SavSender/Reciever", but I've heard some bad things about, so I'm weary to try it..

If this information helps:

I'm using a Cyclods (1.58B2), and a EZ-Flash 3-in-1 (I think it's 1.0, not 1.1)

If there's some other information that could help, please let me know.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as soon as possible, thanks.


EDIT: Okay, I tried the wifi version of the backup tool, and had the same result, it says it restored the [edited] save file, but there's no change when you load the retail cart. Again, any help?

EDIT 2: It seems that anytime after editing the save file, it'll be corrupt (I tested it on my Cyclo).

    only ps5 updated to latest firmware can go on psn, jailbroken ones just don't use psn or they risk getting flagged or banned, altho spouting profanity in online play alredy does that

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    Anyone dumb enough to get banned for spouting profanity deserves it.
  • Y @ YuseiFD:
    Then how come you do it and don't get banned ? or is it a question of getting caught doing it ?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
