Invalid platinum save, can't open it

[henkita]

Found an old r4i with my platinum save on it, tried to open it in pkhex and it doesn't seem to work, i can't try it on r4 since i think it's got a time bomb

oh i should add but maybe this could be the fault of cheats? i remember using a cheat code to give gliscor fly

every other save i have on that r4 works fine

"doesn't seem to work"

pkhex literally says that it is uninitialized.

 

Open it in a hex editor. The file is empty.

Dang

I have no idea if it got corrupted or something, i remember for sure that i played it 5-6 years ago and all the other saves work just fine

Thank you for confirming though

Well i suppose there is nothing i can do if the hex is empty 

It's really weird because i left this r4 untouched for years and years

Apparently someone else also had a similar problem way back
