DSiWare Game Injection Issue

[Jhynjhiruu]

I bought and downloaded Sleep Clock: Record and analyse your sleep patterns (EUR), but when going to finally inject the save savedata.bin in GodMode9, I get an error saying there isn't enough space in the FAT mounted directory. What should I do?

[Plailect]

How large is the public.sav file?

[Jhynjhiruu]

Thr public.sav file says it's 65536kb or whatever, it when I mount it as a FAT directory in GodMode9 it only seems to be 61-something kb.

[Plailect]

Hm, this seems to be a bug then. Perhaps @d0k3 has an idea?

[saibotu]

I think the problem here is, that the header and file allocation table also take up space from public.sav. So save actually has to be a bit bigger than 65536 bytes to hold savedata.bin.

[d0k3]

@Plailect - not a bug in GM9. Of course you don't have the full size of the image file as file system. The FAT header takes up at least 0.5KiB. The FAT table also take up a considerate amount of space. That stuff taking up ~3KiB is pretty much expected.

So...

Hey I can actually help with this!

I encountered the same issue the other day. However, I had a copy of my DSi's NAND decrypted and extracted, with Sudokuhax on that. Since you install v0 Sudoku over Sleep Clock, I figured I could just copy over the save file from my DSi. It worked, Sudoku uses an 80kb save file and simply replacing the Sleep Clock file worked perfectly, even transferred over no issue.

I can upload my Sudokuhax (v1.0) save file if you want Plai, or I can inject 1.1 into the public.sav and upload that.

[Jhynjhiruu]

1.1 public.sav would be the best thing ever at this point. I can seed a torrent of it if required.

[8bitwalugi]

Sorry, I'd rather wait on Plai's word before going ahead with anything. I don't know how he'd feel about it is all.
Plus, another issue is that it's a European save file. I don't know how well that'd play with other regions.

[Jhynjhiruu]

I'm European, so starting with just hosting the EUR save file would work well.

[Plailect]

The problem with just copying over a larger public.sav file is that, as far as I am aware, the system transfer should be detecting that and not transferring the save. If it works for you that's very odd...

[Jhynjhiruu]

I think the thing is it's not a bigger public.sav, because of FAT and stuff, it just seems like it should be. Or something.

[Jhynjhiruu]

If I had two of the same 3DSs I would try it.
Edit: If I downloaded it via the freeShop, but transferred it to a 3DS that had CFW, would that be the same as buying legit and transferring to OFW? I have access (sort of) to 2 CFW Old 3DSs.

[Plailect]

I'll just adjust the save file size (and recommended games) in the guide to be sure.

[Jhynjhiruu]

Would CFW->CFW be OK?
