Hacking Will DS2 take .nds.sav files?

[riverchen]

Title. I'm trying to DUALBOOT wood r4 and EOS on 1 microSD

 

[elixirdream]

don't wood r4 take .sav?
if thats the case why not just rename your .nds.sav to .sav

Wood r4 takes .nds.sav, but cani change that in the global settigns?

my bad....i thought its like AKAIO, you could do that

EDIT: tested on my scds2 and it doesn't read .nds.sav

Nah SCDSTWO uses primarily ".sav"s. I don't know if they will add an option later for it but not currently.

CRAP NO DUALBOOTING.

You could make a copy of your save files each time you play one, but I suppose that would be annoying if you play multiple games at once, like me.

What do you mean? Each flash card uses different files and should work fine. For example, I use the same uSDHC card in my DSTWO, AceKard 2i, and CycloDS without any problems. Whichever flash card I put the uSDHC card into, it looks for the appropriate files.

Are you trying to use some DUAL BOOTING program to do this?

DSTwo, Acekard 2i and CycloDS all use .sav extensions.
Wood R4 uses .nds.sav.

Basically his problem is all the savefiles for Wood R4 won't read on a DS2, if he uses the same microSD between them.

can i do something , to make the wood r4 .nds.sav , read on a ds2. rename or converter

RupeeClock , if i put the savefiles in another microsd, will it read them

sorry for jumping in here, i just scanned this thread quickly. did anyone suggest buying a second msd card? if your using wood on a real r4, which you probably are, you are limited to 2 gb. you can pick up a 2gb japanese kingston for under $5 if you shop around. having multiple msd cards makings this hobby so much more enjoyable. it also makes debugging quicker as you have more hardware to test your problem against.

something to consider?

I think Wood R4, Acekard 2i, CycloDS and maybe DSTwo all use the same save format.
You'll just need to name Wood R4's .nds.sav files to .sav file (or vice versa to work on Wood R4)

Yeah if you put the save files on another microSD, like one dedicated for Wood R4, they'd work.

Ok, thanks for the help.
