@AnalogMan
Ha, well, you were the reason for Device Saves, but I had a friend that requested bcat long ago for Pokémon Let's Go since all the Wonder cards are stored in bcat IIRC. I'm just really busy and shitty about updating JKSV. I've been meaning to rip off freebird's ui stuff for a while to pretty it up a bit. Just don't have the time or drive right now.

Alright, I'm going to make myself look really dumb here by asking, but this is killing me:
How do I completely extract the .nca for this game? Hactool (even the newest release) gets to extracting around 2.4 gb of data and then fails.

Spoiler

This is the only game I have this issue with.

I used Switch Explorer and extracted it all. Took about 8 minutes.

Trying that now. Thank you.

EDIT: Ugh, nope that one is failing too. No idea what the problem is. It works fine on my console so it can't be a bad dump.

You can’t right know. No value sticks when editing

I ended up using nstool. was the only thing that worked.

 

[blawar]

That's correct.

Now we're on to the fun part -- figuring out how the hell to decompress these save files. The reasoning behind the headers being separate and having their own headers.. I'm looking into decompiling the game to see if I can find anything but i'm pretty novice at IDA

@MartinThibaultYo

Tinfoil supports Animal Crossing save backup and restore as well, though Tinfoil handles it transparently.

 

[DesuIsSparta]

Too tired for now.. if anyone is interested, I believe loading the save file happens at sub_7100F29C30

Well now, you got my attention.
But be aware. 19/3 a new patch will be released. Don't do to much before that.

Thanks for the advice.
However, speedup code works fine on SXOS.

Sorry to beat your advice.
