Jayxsource Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Hey im trying to play my 3ds pokemon crystal save on a mgba rom on my pc but for some reason the emulator is not able to read the save i well obviously think this is because its a save that says type sav.dat while other saves have .sav if it is this case how do i change it to a .sav? sav.dat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theSLAYER Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Probably due to differences of timestamp. Remove the last line(s) of code in the save using a hex editor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never used a hex editor before which do you suggest I Downloaded HxD and I don't know which lines to remove the lines under decoded text or 00-0F or the offset Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackShark Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 mGBA can read the file without modification. Just rename it to match your ROMs name and change .dat to .sav. You might have to modify it if you want to bring it back to your 3DS though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
