I try to open my save file and it says corrupted or NOT A TOMODACHI LIFE FILE can some one help!

Your save file is "savedataArc.txt" ? If the filename is not savedataArc, extract your save with another homebrew


I have the Japanese version on a USA 3DS. Will this work for that?

I don't know you can test but backup your save before use the editor, and tell me if it work please

Can this, or any other editor, remove the time traveling penalty? My clock got reset whilst doing arm9loaderhax prep and installation.

Speculation: anti-TT games save the raw date from the clock chip, and adjusting the time resets it to the first possible day (and the offset is stored somewhere on nand?)

The Config dev cia has both a "clock" and a "raw clock" option, and last time I checked (a few weeks ago, after removing the battery for repainting my 2DS) the raw one had a date in 2011...

I can never use the unlock all headgear and colors option, it will always give me a corrupted save.

Is there some trick to this? Everything else is working....

try to repair with a Hex editor (Set FD to offsets 151E, 1575-1577), It corrupt another time, send me your save please

Can confirm that trying to unlock everything corrupts the save file. (Using USA Cartridge)

ok, try to fix that

For USA version : All headgears and colors and All Special Food corrupt save, don't use them, I will fix them on the next update

Something else seems to also corrupt the file, I tryed unlocking everything except 'headgears and colors' and 'special foods' and it still corrupted. If you have other things you want me to test, let me know and I'll do it.

Sorry, probably should have added that I am using a USA cia, and my Tomodachi Life is v1.1. I see you edited the main post about USA versions, hope there is an easy fix for it :)

I can still try out repairing the save with a HEX editor, if needed.

Thanks, but I tested one by one unlock things with a USA Tomodachi Life cia 1.0, only All headgears and colors and All Special Food corrupt save, It's weird. It slows me now.


EDIT : I can confirm all unlock things works except all headgears and special food on Tomodachi Life US 1.0

I'd love if there was a way to get specific Islanders married, or even interested in each other...

Or at the very, VERY least, get rid of hats from their wardrobe. I'm...a perfectionist about that. :<

(I havn't had a chance to try the program yet)


for the moment no, but I will try to do it

Edit : I need USA saves for found all offsets of headgears and color, if someone wants to send me his save file, it would be nice thanks

Awesome, I want to "clone" my EUR sav to a EUR sav created in another console. Will this program do that? My old 3DS died and The save on The SD is attached with that one and cant be used in The new one...

If you you extract your save before yes, otherwise it's death
If you have your savedataArc.txt save file your can use it in your other Tomodachi Life game
