I've released a sizable update (and a quick bugfix)! The big deal for this update is that I've updated the Pokémon box icons to the images from Pokémon X and Y (consistency be damned). In addition, the images are now embedded resources within the PKMDS_CS.dll file, instead of being in a secondary .SQLITE database. This means less files to deploy and keep track of. Yay! Plus: Started work on item sorting Update shininess / sprite when editing TID / SID Changed selection backcolor (and alpha) Fixed some items were missing icons / flavor text As usual, you can find the latest release on the GitHub releases page!

I'm not sure who responded that way, but for what it's worth, as a dev-type person I think this is pretty rad.

PKMDS Save Editor 1.0: Edit your Generation 5 save files! You can download the latest release from: https://github.com/codemonkey85/PKMDS-Save-Editor/releases/latest Please report issues to the GitHub issue tracker! Alternatively, you can report them here: http://goo.gl/A3kW8W PKMDS Save editor currently supports the following Pokémon games: Black White Black 2 White 2 As of this release, you can: Import and export Pokémon.

I could easily accomplish this using my library. We should talk later... why don't you swing by the IRC?

I just moved a bunch of posts regarding save file support to this thread: http://projectpokemon.org/forums/showthread.php?37955-X-Y-Save-Help-Thread I also deleted some posts that didn't contribute at all. While I do appreciate our members helping each other out, this is a research thread, and posts should contribute or ask research-related questions. Help requests should either be PMed or posted in the Save Editing Help forum. Thank you!

That sounds like a much bigger update than the .1 increment would suggest. Nice work!

A while ago I started work on a C++ .Net DLL, and a C# DLL wrapper. It's starting to come together for me, so I'm thinking that while all the low-level stuff will still be handled by C++, I can do all my UI stuff in .Net. Check out the progress on that here: https://github.com/codemonkey85/PKMDS-Win32-DLL

Quick update - I haven't touched the Qt application in a while, but I have begun exploring alternate ways of doing the GUI. Depending on how those go I might be looking to re-write the save editor. Stay tuned!

Work continues, as I have pretty significantly refactored the way many structs work. Also, I am using the new "dev" branch to do the majority of my work, with the intent to merge into the Master branch once I'm sure everything is stable.

Sorry man. :-(

Two posts above yours...

Well so much for that idea. Thanks for taking the time to explain it so well!

I have had no issues with KeySAV, but so far no luck with this Mass Dumper. :-/

It sounds like we're going to have to create a fake Nintendo authentication server.

Just FYI, the IR port in Pokemon games is just a fancy way to connect via local wireless. All it does is establish the connection between two games. If all of the communication were done via IR, you would need to stand nearly still and close together with your opponent for an entire battle / trade.

Well we know that they are aware of our wiki, so you might just be right. Anyway, aside from protecting their profits, a reason they may be doing everything server-side is because what they are running could be a 3DS farm that does some of the work for them.

It doesn't matter how simple or complex a change is - if we can't fix the save file checksum(s) AND re-encrypt it properly, we can't do anything at all to edit it.

You can use a program like HxD to concatenate all of your box keys and xor it with the entire PC storage system at any time in the future, if that is what you want to know. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

I suppose that's fair, although my opinion is different and I still stand by my statement about putting in time.

I'm now releasing binaries on GitHub. I'll probably ditch the Dropbox links at some point. Bam: https://github.com/codemonkey85/PKMDS/releases/tag/v0.5

Just FYI, I've made several small but important changes / bugfixes spread out over the last month or so.

UPDATE: Now when you set the Pokemon's held item, the Pokemon's form will change if appropriate. For instance, if you make Giratina hold the Griseous Orb, it will change to its Origin Forme. If you make it hold a different item, it will change to its Altered Forme. Same deal with Arceus and Genesect. Also, if you change a Pokemon's form either manually or by changing its item, the Pokemon's ability will change to reflect the new form if necessary. Right now this applies to Shaymin, Giratina, Tornadus, Thundurus, Landorus, and Kyurem. Great news for Mac users - Mac OS X is a go! https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rms3mr0j2gisrgj/sYasuN7JED

I've spoken to some of the folks in IRC about that Pokecheck announcement, and no one I talked to knows for sure what it entails. However, as research is still progressing, I doubt an accurate ETA can be made. A noble effort in science indeed. This is my philosophy as well.

Most of us are pretty open about sharing this sort of info. If you ever have any questions, feel free to post again or jump in the IRC. Most information you are looking for is probably in that wiki, though (thanks LEGOanimal).

I was more referring to the fact that you own 3 Nintendo DS consoles but seem to have a problem with spending $40 on something else. At any rate, I don't know anything about the hardware that you specifically have, but I can vouch for the thing I suggested.
