V_Benn_V Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 So I am trying to use PKhex and i am following the managing 3ds saves tutorial. I need to copy the 3ds file to the root of my 3ds. How can I do that though? I can't find the 3ds file in JKMS.
theSLAYER Posted May 27, 2020 Posted May 27, 2020 Check our tutorials: You don't get a "3ds" file. You get a "main" file.

In the tutorial, it says "Download JKSM.zip and copy the 3ds folder to the root of your 3DS's SD Card.", you might want to update that or something? Idk i'm still very new to this stuff Edited May 27, 2020 by V_Benn_V

Idk i'm still very new to this stuff Expand Why update it? It's telling you to use the homebrew version. How to use the homebrew version, is to place it in a folder with the name "3ds". What's wrong with it?

It sounds like they are implying there is a 3ds file in the JKSM file. This part of the tutorial doesn't make any sense to me. I believe the correct grammer would be copy the JKMS file to a 3ds file in your 3DS's SD card. or something like that. Also, do I copy it into the existing 3ds file or do I make another one?

Wasn't implying stuff. If you did the download, you would have seen the 3DS folder edit: It looks like their present version only has a 3dsx file, no folder. Which in that case, you will create a 3ds folder (if it doesn't exist), then place the .3dsx inside. On 5/27/2020 at 12:43 AM, V_Benn_V said: This part of the tutorial doesn't make any sense to me. I believe the correct grammer would be copy the JKMS file to a 3ds file in your 3DS's SD card. Expand No, you literally copy the 3ds folder in the zip. The reason it's phrased like this is: a) Not everyone has a 3ds folder (cause not everyone uses homebrew prior to this) This step ensures that the 3ds folder exists b) In the event that a user HAS a 3ds folder, the folder would merely merge. edit: read my edit above. On 5/27/2020 at 12:43 AM, V_Benn_V said: Also, do I copy it into the existing 3ds file or do I make another one? Expand Once again, why do you insist on saying 3ds file. You mean 3ds folder? You mean 3dsx file? Which is it.
V_Benn_V Posted May 27, 2020 Author Posted May 27, 2020 (edited) sorry i'm so dumb. I'm just trying to figure this stuff out. I'm new to computers in general too.

If I didn't, then i wouldn't be asking for help. There is no 3ds folder i can find. Only this3dsx.h . On 5/27/2020 at 12:54 AM, theSLAYER said: Once again, why do you insist on saying 3ds file.

Anyways, I put the .3dsx inside, and I got nothing when i opened my homebrew and looked in it. Thanks for the help. I can tell it's frustrating working with me so again sorry Edited May 27, 2020 by V_Benn_V

Just make sure you're referring to filenames or extensions correctly, else that'll cause confusion.

Expand I wasn't the one who made the tutorial but I guess it has to be, since the 3ds folder no longer exists in a zip. Ah welps, I'll change it in a bit 1

And the 2 3dsx files do not change anything either. It would be great if you could help me out with this. Also thanks for changing the tutorial too.

Don't know why you are looking at other files. Just download this, and follow the homebrew steps.

Expand When I try to go into reload titles, it just says loading NAND titles... and then goes back to the screen. So i tried skipping that step and when I press on pokemon ultra sun and then save data it just has an error screen .
theSLAYER Posted May 27, 2020 Posted May 27, 2020 What do you mean On 5/27/2020 at 2:28 AM, V_Benn_V said: then goes back to the screen Expand What screen. Home menu? Back into JKSM? It freezes?

theSLAYER Posted May 27, 2020 Posted May 27, 2020 On 5/27/2020 at 3:41 AM, V_Benn_V said: just JKSM Expand that sounds like the titles are being reloaded. From my experience, reloading/refreshing titles should throw you back to the main JKSM screen. After that, the title should appear, then export the save from the title. If it does show an error screen at this point: does that game have a save file? It shouldn't throw you an error screen if you have a save file. What's the error on the error screen?

Expand The error screen says "The archive could not be opened.0xE0E046BE Error: Also I have played through the whole game so it has a save Edited May 27, 2020 by V_Benn_V
theSLAYER Posted May 27, 2020 Posted May 27, 2020 then I've got no idea what the issue is. You probably should try your luck posting the issue on their Github, or going to the Discord
SkyLink98 Posted May 27, 2020 Posted May 27, 2020 You can also try with the 3dsx (Homebrew) version of checkpoint. I personally use JKSM but Checkpoint should also be a good choice. https://github.com/FlagBrew/Checkpoint/releases/download/v3.7.4/Checkpoint.3dsx
