having an issue with a checkpoint backup I made, had an old save of tomodachi life I had backed up with checkpoint so I could start a new save without losing my prior game forever. problem is that I made a back up of the new game and the file was called "savedataArc" which loads fine but the old save is labled "main" and when I try to restore said old save it won't work at all and I end up at a endless loading screen with the bottom screen saying "creating save data" but I never get any further than that.
am I doing something wrong while restoring the old save or did checkpoint just corrupt it, if anyone here can help it would mean a lot, I don't want to have to accept that I lost a save of a game I had been playing for so long.

I saw someone post something similar to my issue not too long ago who was able to resolve the issue using JKSM, they didn't go into any detail about it though sadly so I assumed they downloaded the cia for JKSM and restored the save through there, tried the idea but still had the same outcome with the endless "creating save data" screen.

( I would post a link to the forum of the person who had a very similar issue to mine but I just made this account so I can't put any links in here but the title of the post is

"I goofed up, Backup Tomodachi life not working"​


I will also be posting the save file below if that can help determine the problem at all.

    That Dell data breach is worse than people probably realize....
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I worked for Dell we had access to data about military contracts and addresses for high ranking people.

    I personally handled a call from the second highest person at Raytheon. That call bothered me a lot... The guy was nice and smart what bothered me was the way management basically just blew him off instead of going the extra mile to help him.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    In the end that call ended up costing Dell millions in lost contracts with Raytheon, and really the issue could have been solved for like 450 bucks lol

    sometimes I wonder why anyone would ever buy mega man x legacy collection 2
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I always thought that capcom shuffled the games in these collection, but apparently they are all in chronological order, which makes legacy collection 2 worthless

    the booty boogie from (once again) the donkey kong country cartoon could also be a good song to sing while playing sea of thieves
