    Hello everyone.

    I was wandering if anyone know how to use a save file for the Ds on the acekard 2i cos i have a save file and im trying to use the same save file on my DS i. I copyed it to my micro sd card though its not coming up when i go to the game. When i copyied it its a sav. file for the Ds. Anyway any help would be great.

    Thanks a bunch!

    P.s theres a rar file V named Duel thats the file im trying to use.

    The files need to be named correctly.

    Most of the time the file naming is like this:
    GAME.nds
    GAME.sav

    Where the .sav and .nds file need to have the same name. I think the Acekard might need to have it like this:
    GAME.nds
    GAME.nds.sav

    I remember someone saying something about that in the Kingdom Hearts thread.

    If you are moving files between cards and/or emulators, then you may need to convert them. To do this, just use this online save type converter found here:

    It all depends on what they name the save file in firmware functions, you can easily tell how to do it for a specific flashcart etc.

    So you need to add .nds before the .sav?

    ...thanks.

    (dangit, now I have to go and rename around 40+ saves. :( )

    Depends on your flashcart. If it has been working fine, don't change anything.
