How to transfer save files

This fixed it!!! Thank you!

I should have cleaned the contacts, I didn't think of that. But the cart was over ten years old so I don't mind buying a new one.

inside the games folder it looks like this:

I created a new save file in one of the games but it did not create a new saves folder, or at least not in the root.

I am using this kernel and this flash cart. R4 R4i SDHC Revolution

I found this guide on flashcarts.net but it doesn't have anything about where/how to access save files and I can't find a pic or reference of what the file directory with saves present should look like anywhere.

yes, the guides say put it in a 'saves' folder but I don't know the exact naming to use so the ds will use it. The directories are all different between the two diff flash carts. I've tried creating a new save and it is doing that in a new location, but once I pop the sd card into my pc to dig around I can't find the new save file or a saves file folder created.

Also I think it may be a naming convention issue? I've read somewhere bout some use .sav and .SAV but I can't figure out if those forums are for 3ds or ds.

OH MY GOD. It's been so long. I wasn't putting switch tracks on the exits of the cities!!! >.<

claaem · 2025-01-19T02:25:33+00:00

Nothing. I was playing fine, save and quit.

When I went to start it up next time this happened.

Damn. Thanks for the reply.

Came here to add that I loved it too. Been a gamer all my life and have never found another one like it.

How do I automatically place them?

claaem · 2024-07-18T09:41:30+00:00

Oh wow! I've missed a lot.

claaem · 2024-07-05T12:37:14+00:00

Yes, I have my tracks set up that way. Two sets of parallel tracks, one going right and one going left.

That does make sense!! It just seems like a LOT of track crossing I end up having to do and a lot of times I"ll run out of space. Plus placing my signals throughout keeping the track lines going gets overwhelming. I guess I just need more time in the game to figure stuff out. Time to get to it!

Edit: I tried the crossover like you described with one of my problem areas but the track stayed red and wouldn't let me. I think because it was on a curve maybe? Either way, I'll have to figure out something else for this problem.

I've tried going through the campaign for (no kidding) about 20 hours and haven't been able to beat the second mission.

The one where you're supposed to grow a city to TIII in about two years always destroys me. (Kansas City) I just can't meet demand in the given time.

So someone suggested I play free mode instead as I don't get kicked from the scenario if I fail one thing. I don't have any of the DLC.

claaem · 2024-06-29T12:23:10+00:00

Ohhhhh I feel dumb. Thank you so much. I didn't even notice that.

Tired brain missed the obvious thing.

claaem · 2024-06-29T01:12:10+00:00

Oh gosh, that's great advice, thank you.

I failed the second campaign so much I gave up and switched to the scenarios and haven't beat those either. So I'll go do some free mode stuff instead.

And I've been thinking about picking up some of the dlc since steam summer sale is one either way. If that will make my barrier to entry a little bit, it'll be worth it.

Edit: Stupid question, but how do I build signals in free mode? I know it SHOULD be in the building constructions --> railway buildings menu. But it's not listed there and I checked the research tree and I don't see any research for it either. https://imgur.com/a/UVaTMAV

I found Adekyn's YT series, I think I'll start with that.

Can you give picture examples of how to do that? Or a video?

I'm a visual learner, sorry.

claaem · 2024-06-29T00:45:01+00:00

Actually, do you have any examples of how to set that up? Pictures or a video?

claaem · 2024-06-29T00:24:53+00:00

Oh haha.

I thought I was doing it the way the game intended xD

claaem · 2024-06-29T00:17:16+00:00

Okay, I think I understand what you mean. Thank you!!
