Corrupted or Invalid save file?

I was playing around with the tweaking glitch in diamond [info on tweaking] and sure enough I corrupted my save file by doing so. I have reason to believe nothing more than my map coordinates are corrupt and that all of my pokemon are still in tact. This all happened a few months ago.

Onto my pokesav issue... I recently bought an Action Replay DSi which comes with the ability to make backups of your game saves. I ripped my save from the Diamond cart and popped it into the computer to discover it was a .duc file. I then plugged the save into this converter to create a 512kb RAW .sav file, as was suggested in the pokesav FAQ. When I try to open the .sav file in pokesav, everything appears entirely corrupted. I got an error "invalid file" when I tried the same thing with PPSE, just to see if it would open there.

As a sort of control experiment to test whether my save was really completely corrupted, I tried ripped, converted and tried opening my Platinum cart's save in the platinum version of pokesav. It still gave me a lot of corrupted information even though my Platinum save isn't corrupted in any way.

When I converted the save, I tried autodetection [which gave a 512kb file], forcing 256kb and forcing 512kb. None of the three resulting files worked. I tried making a code to run directly on the Action replay, but I don't know when to activate via pressing L+R to set the coordinates. Trying to take off the button activator didn't work either [though I'm not experienced enough in code-making to know if I did that right or not]

I can upload the .duc files of my diamond save to mediafire if it would help.

*pokes at the topic*

I'm still alive waiting for help

Are there no other converters or information about the new AR?

There is at this time no save converter that can properly convert from .duc to any thing else.
