Hacking Tales of the Abyss (U) Save File

[someonewhodied]

So, Tales of the Abyss was released today. Has anyone taken a look at the save file?
I'm curious as to whether everything is in a fixed spot in the save, or if it moves with each different save.

I guess it would be the same as the PAL version...but who knows...watch r4i-sdhc's save database for any uploads...

It seems like theres encryption after the XOR encryption, as if i try to edit anything, it corrupts my data.

Yes, i am decrypting it, editing a single part, and reencrypting it.

Just like all other 3DS games, there are checksums and hashes that are calculated when the save data is written. Nobody has been able—or publicly shown how—to modify saved games yet.
