Hacking Supercard DS One save file

[Zaiga]

I'm getting a supercard ds one soon, and I've been using No$GBA to play DS games until I get it. I want to keep my save files so I was wondering if the save files are the same as the Supercard DS One save files. I don't want to have to convert all of them... >.> Thanks.

Open the no$gba.ini file, change the save type from "compressed" to "raw" and then send them through Shuny's online converter.

EDIT: obviously after you change the .ini file you'll want to open the game and save again to overwrite the compressed save with the raw one.

 

[Zaiga]

Wait.. where's the no$gba.ini file?

 

[DanTheManMS]

Same folder as no$gba.exe

 

[Zaiga]

Really? The only things in my no$gba folder is NO$GBA.INP, the NO$GBA emulator, and Remote.dll. The closest thing to the .ini file you're talking about is the .inp file.

Edit: What happens when I change the save type to raw? If I didn't change anything, would the saves not work or something?

 

[DanTheManMS]

Change some settings in the options menu, save the settings with the appropriate menu option, and see if the *.ini file appears.

If you don't set it to raw or Uncompressed, no$gba will make the save files in its own proprietary compressed format to save space. These cannot be decoded by the Shuny converter.

Ah! Okay I finally found the darn thing! Okay, so I just type in "raw" instead of "compressed" right? And then it will stay like that?

 

[DanTheManMS]

If you save the file, then yes it should stay that way.

Okay I saved it and converted all of my save files. They should all work now. Thank you for the help Dan.
