The only changes appear to be in the overall menu code. Github doesn't have easy difference viewing, so I'm not going to bother figuring out what changed.

 

[WaRMarinE]

Hahaha ok! Thanks again for the compiled .dol

Is it save to use it? Known Bugs (Alpha)?
I think to a [Beta] / [Final] release it would be a lot of time need? Some months?

Another Question: SavegameInstaller/Extractor needs GameDisk this one not?

 

[Hells Guardian]

Well I personally prefer using a tool to flat out patch out the data copy protection from the system menu for all save games and such and just use the system menu.

Now if it was an automated save installer/ extractor for backup purposes then I would see reason to use this tool.

No it doesn't need a disc.

Yes,
MR.Bean gives RET=1.

Rest of all saves work dumping.

How we install extracted saves? I have the version Alpha2ish (same with Alpha1) and it's always return "error -106".
I want to reinstall "Boom blox (PAL)" and "World of Goo (NTSC)".

Please help me.

 

[thequack]

same problem with error -106
want to reinstall my mario kart savegame...

 

[thequack]

I've solved the problem.

So I've a old backup of my Mario Kart Wii Savegame extracted with Savegame Extractor 2.0.
Only what to do:

Rename all file in upper case, also the Filetyp. (e.g. banner.bin to BANNER.BIN)
I also have copied the Mario Kart Wii FILELIST.DAT from the Savegame Extractor 2.0 (old Savegame) to the Savegame Manager Savegame (new Savegame).

Put in the Mario Kart Disk, and it will be successfully install the Savegame.
No Error ret -1 and -106.

Moved..

thanks for this. keep up the good work

Poked around a little more.

Seems when the savegame file is extracted it lists the title id as 00010000-524D4745

However, when it is in install mode it lists the title id as 00010000-52434745.

Maybe that is the problem. Tried renaming the folder, but didn't work.

Ah well, it is Alpha after all, I'll just wait for a revision.
There is a major bug in utils.c:
CODEu64 StrToHex64(const char *str)
{
ÂÂÂÂu64 val = 0;
ÂÂÂÂu32 cnt, len;

ÂÂÂÂ/* String length */
ÂÂÂÂlen = strlen(str);

ÂÂÂÂfor (cnt = 0; cnt < len; cnt++) {
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂu32ÂÂidx = len - (cnt + 1);
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂchar cÂÂ = toupper(str[idx]);

ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂu64 n = (isdigit(c)) ? c - '0' : c - 'A';
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ// The line above should be:
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ// u64 n = (isdigit(c)) ? c - '0' : c - 'A' + 10;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂu64 m = 1;

ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂfor (idx = 0; idx < cnt; idx++)
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂm *= 16;

ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ/* Convert to hex */
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂval += n * m;
ÂÂÂÂ}

ÂÂÂÂreturn val;
}

Any games that use title IDs with letters in them will fail to install.

Could someone correct and compile this

?

 

[ChainLink]

I am pretty new to all this hombrew stuff. I used SaveGame Manager, and later found out I can not install the save back into my wii, because of an error in the code, util.c. The error has been pointed out and even corrected, so I was wondering if it is possible for someone to compile it and post the new revision.

Here is the Source Code:
http://github.com/waninkoko/savegame-manager/tree

Here is the forum discussing the problem:

[wiiman123]

Never had any issues with it. Works fine.

 

[Linuks]

No, it can't restore savegames which title id contains A,B,C,D,E or F.
Look at the source : Fix StrToHex64(). Thanks to tueidj.

So I agree with ChainLink, could someone please compile it ?
Thanks in advance!

 

[Linuks]

Issue has been solved by Waninkoko.
Could someone please compile the new source ?

Thanks in advance!

 

[wiiman123]

Oh I didn't notice that. Don't use GameSave Manager too much.

UPDATE: This is the compiled version of the bugfix. While not officially named, I'll call it Alpha 3.
