I don't know whether it's available or not.
But for injecting other EUR contents into USA contents, it requires everything decrypted.
SaveDataFiler & Cyber's cheating hardware support outputing decrypted saves. But only SaveDataFiler inputs decrypted saves.
SaveDataFiler is CIA exclusive. It doesn't support GW Card1 saves & Cart saves.

You must have a 4.1-4.5 3DS to attempt that. You must have SaveDataFiler installed on your Emunand and CFW and the USA rom must either be converted to Card2 (if you want to run it from the red cart) or be in CIA format (if you're gonna install it on your emunand/CFW)

1-Export the save data from the donor EUR cartridge:
1.1- Set up the CFW on the 3DS.
1.2- Run the CFW, insert the EUR cart and run SaveDataFiler. Select the CTR card and export the user data to the SD card (Y).

2-Import the save data into the donee USA rom
2.1- Install the USA rom (as CIA) on a CFW or Emunand and run SaveDataFiler.. Got the 3rd tab, select your backed up data and import it to the SD card (R+A).
or
2.2- Convert the USA rom into Card2 and copy it to the red cart's microSD. Enter Gateway mode, select the USA game on the rom selection menu and run SaveDataFiler. Got the 3rd tab, select your backed up data and import it into the game (L+A)
If that doesn't work you may have to create a save file on the donee (EUR) game and export it to the SD card.
Then replace the save file inside the folder with the one from the donor rom (USA) and inject back.

there isnt actually really any way to do this atm, if you convert the rom to card2 it wont read a normal .sav save (even if you try to inject it)......so really it would only *potentially* work if you had already been playing it as a rom converted to card2 before you start playing....so your best bet would be waiting and seeing if gateway fixes card1 saves loading in save data filer

Nah, I imported save data from my Luigi's Mansion cart into both Card2 and CIA conversions perfectly fine.

Neither the game nor SaveDataFiler can tell the difference about card type. Card type doesn't affect the save data at all.

I guarantee my tutorial works or you get your money back.

I don't know if it'll work but you can try to :
- Backup your cartdrige save with the gateway option
-Convert your game into a cia, then install it
- In classic mode use the nintendo save transfert tool to put your cartdrige save into the cia game.
- In gw mode use SaveDataFiler on the cia game.

Can I dump my EUR cart, convert to card 2? Insert save use cart2sav.exe?
First you have to extract the user data from your cartridge's save file and right now you can only do that using SaveDataFiler installed on the CFW.
But then there's the issue of the game's uniqueID issue... but you can probably just extract a save from the USA game, replace its contents with the EUR one and inject back.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze

    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
