Hey folks, hot off the heels of my Path of Radiance NTSC playthrough I decided I'd transfer my savedata into Radiant Dawn NTSC and play through that. The problem with that is that Radiant Dawn NTSC really doesn't emulate well at all, so I figured I'd convert my Radiant Dawn savedata to PAL format instead and play through the game with that; basically the same deal as this thread: http://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-con...diant+dawn
I'm not wholly sure what needs done, though, I only have a very basic understanding of hex editing and changing header data and things like that so I was hoping I could get some assistance here on the matter, and maybe an explanation if you're feeling generous both so I know how to handle these situations in the future and so people who run into the same problems as me won't have to spend 3 hours combing over Google for an answer and not turning up anything solid.
Here's my save data: http://www.filedropper.com/showdownload.php/data_6
Thanks in advance, fellas.
Update: I popped open a Hex editor and tried slapping together an EU save and got most of the data in proper working condition without crashing, but there's one thing that's still in the way. The first five lines are the last thing I need to change, but I have no idea how they're organized, they aren't straightforward at all. I slapped together a few different save games and made an image to convey what I mean. If anyone can make something out of this, fantastic.
Update 2: Apparently, even when I do the same thing twice the data is different. I made another blank PAL save and the offsets are still different.
Update 3: Actually, those are probably just checksums and I'm just a moron. Maybe I missed a spot somewhere?
