TWLSaveTool is a 3DS homebrew that allows you to read, write, and erase save files from NDS cartridges (just like savegame-manager).

Installation

Installing

Available in CIA and 3DSX/SMDH formats.

CIA - Requires an access to CFWs. Recommended option.
3DSX - Must have either PokéTransporter or Pokémon Dream Radar installed on your 3DS. In both cases you'll need to pay to be able to download them.

Building

Have libctru and devkitARM correctly installed and set up, as well as makerom and bannertool in an accessible path, then run: make

User guide

All NDS games should be supported except:

WarioWare D.I.Y.
Band Brothers DX.
Art Academy DS.
Pokémon Typing Adventure.

Note: Make sure that your new save is in the TWLSaveTool folder on the root of your SD card (not in /3ds/TWLSaveTool), and it has the exact name showed on screen. Otherwise it will not reconize your save file.

Controls

B - Backup save file

A - Restore save file

X - Erase save file

Start - Exit

Y - Restart

Left/Right - Change filename
