[GUIDE] DraStic dsv save to Desmume

Post by p4n7h3r » Sat May 31, 2014 11:59 am

Some people want to transfer their drastic dsv save game to desmume but they cant make it work by just simply copying the dsv from /sdcard/drastic/backup/HeartGold.dsv to the battery folder of desmume. There is a simple fix for this that was tested and working with a Pokemon HeartGold save game.
It seems that desmume adds a footer at the end of the dsv file while drastic doesn't. Desmume will only load a dsv if it ends with a footer (and if it is valid of course). All you have to do is to open the drastic's dsv with your favorite hex editor and add this to the end of the file:
|<--Snip above here to create a raw sav by excluding this DeSmuME savedata footer:........................|-DESMUME SAVE-|
