Save into OFW from CFW?

[Rocky1]

I've just installed CFW and everything seems to be working fine. However, the edited save file I have does not seem to launch on my game, when booting up the Switch normally. How do I make the changes show on my main file?

Your Sysnand (OFW) and Emunand (CFW) are to be treated as different Switches.
If you import into your CFW, of course the save isn't on your OFW.

Okay, that makes sense. So when I'm doing the save from PKHEX, exactly which route should I take, to save to OFW? Apologies if it seems like a dumb question, just getting the hang of this.

How to you restore your save back to your Switch?

Yeah, essentially save the edited Sword file to my Switch to it's accessible outside of CFW.

@Rocky1 Which app do you use?

[Rocky1]

I have JKSM.

JKSM is a save manager. I'm assuming you only have access to JKSM with CFW (cause that is how it normally works)

Now back to this question of yours:

not exactly a PKHeX issue is it now?

There is an unintended step regarding this, where people have been able to save to OFW from CFW.
I am not sure whether it matters if you use JKSM or Checkpoint,
so to do it, you have to re-setup your emunand, using your OFW nand.

The "link" can break at any time, and when it does, re-setup your emunand as I briefly explained above.

Yeah I've also got Checkpoint. But, you're right it's technically not a pkhex issue. I appreciate your assistance though. I'll keep poking around and see if I figure something out.

yeah, try to resetup your emunand, using the sysnand, then see if it will work. :3

Thank you, much appreciated!

This is the only working way, to get save files, from emunand to systemnand:

 

 

I had the same issue, till i saw this recommend everywhere as the only safe possible way, and it worked like charm for me. 

Just follow it step by step, and your fine. As long as you have your emunand, and systemnand on different partitions.
