Don't think so; I've only seen Checkpoint for Switch

bummer, i've been managing my 3ds saves with JKSM ever since i got CFW in early 2017 since its  easy to use so its pretty convenient for me

Does checkpoint have all the features like JKSM and is it just as easy to use ?

if not , then i really wish the JSKM dev would make a switch version lol

[theSLAYER]

While I'm still using JKSM on the 3DS, I'll say it's very easy to get into Checkpoint on the Switch.

Press A to select Game title among a list of games,
then (I think) D pad left or right to select switch account to dump from
(note: saves no longer stored on cart, so you can have multiple saves legitimately, by simply having multiple accounts on the Switch).

Then you can click L bumper to dump, and R bumper to restore.
(you also get to scroll through a list to select to dump into existing or into new file on SD, or restore from which existing file on SD)

I pretty much got into it pretty easily with a few simple tries, without having to refer to any kind of documentation.
I think it's all pretty much on the screen

Did you select "Refresh Titles" or "Refresh Games" in JKSM?

While the appearance may vary based on version, it's kinda like this,
before you even select Cartridge or SD/CIA:

[Gokuyo]

There is no refresh titles on my screen i dont see it

If you have a "Reload Titles" (as seen in the first image in the first post),
Use that first.

If it still doesn't work, take a photo of the menu.
And also, are you using the latest version?

[Gokuyo]

I have 2 different versions of it i dont seem like yours and i never can select a cartridge

You didn't reply me if you're using the latest version LOL. Tho I guess that doesn't matter, since I'm not using the latest version, nor am I using steelhax.

In any case, try using every version of .3dsx found here.
Every other "I need help page" that I could find recommends using some form of refresh/reload option,
so if keep trying every release of JKSM and try looking for such an option.

If it still doesn't work, or if you decided to not deal with this, just move on to the .3dsx version of Checkpoint.

If you look at the link I linked above, that have a new version of Checkpoint that doesn't require CFW (hax entry works)

Well for your firmware, that is probably true, that you need ntrboothax to install B9S and CFW (ignoring hard mod).

I just tried i think the homebrew is not that good and i cant advance in my game i guess, i just wanted a 6iv ditto in Y, thank you anyway !

[Gokuyo]

[Ashley1978]

No.

maybe this applies to you (read whole thread): https://github.com/J-D-K/JKSM/issues/27

[Ashley1978]

Yes this is my exact problem. I’m using the sub wars method as well. Do I need to download something else to make the sub wars version of homebrew work for this?
