ROM Hack Question Transferring different language save files?

[dangobear]

Is it possible to transfer a save file to another version with a different language? The games are exactly the same but have different title IDs (Story of Seasons Friends of Mineral Town if that helps). Thanks!

If I remember correctly it was only released in Japan, while there is an English patch you can use.
Why, and how do they have different title IDs? Since it was only released in one region.

Either way if I understood the situation well enough you should not have any issue with saves.

2 versions were released - Japan (Japanese only) and Asia (Chinese/Korean), which have different title IDs. I've been playing the JP version with the English patch but it's incomplete as the text is often truncated, overflowing or simply missing.

I wasn't aware of the Asia release, thanks for the info.
I don't see why they wouldn't work since its the same game.

You should be able to use check point to dump the files, then just replace the Asia file with the Japanese one.

Just tried Checkpoint and it somehow turned the Asian version's text into Japanese, so I guess it probably can't be done

It was worth a try. Hopefully they will release an English version soon. Game looks really good.
