As a kid I put my crush as spouse and idk if this happens to everyone but I SWEAR every mii labeled as spouse is going to get rejected or reject your mii no matter WHAT.
Each version of Tomodachi Life has EXTREME region differences. This affects items, dialogue, NPCs, events, dreams, voice quality and accent, clothes, random Mii activities, and SO much more. This is why multiple modes of the save editor are needed for each region.
today i learnt 2 things, first thing is how to edit my save, second thing is that the best tomodachi life youtuber is a blue star that look like peridot (thanks u saved my life)
despite having already known the save editor for probably years now, this got on my home page, i got curious n wanted to see how you'd go about explaining this. good video btw! fun n easy to understand.. also you look cool!
One of the best videos explaining the topic! It was like the stars alligned. Right as I begin using my hacked 3DS, boom, new and uploaded video, with great retention! I love the pacing of the video, keep it up!!
Thank you for the tutorial! I've been trying to 100% tomodachi life but me forcing streetpass encounters with another 3ds got very boring. This really helped me get past the streetpass items/special foods part (I'm still going to get everything else legitimately).
THANK YOU this is such a perfectly timed video i JUST got back into tomodachi life!! I’m tryna get my mii and my girlfriend’s mii to fall in love but its taken FOREVER. thank you!!
ahhh tysm! i was already planning on having a friend help me mod my 3ds, and was looking into this because while i played today i forgot to save for a whole hour and lost SO MUCH PROGRESS. i just want my stuff back 😭 not even gonna do anything extreme other than force some miis to have friends becuse they simply REFUSE to meet anyone new
8:55 id like to add that you can use ftpd instead of turning off the console and taking out the sd card download winscp on your computer and you can just edit files through a server for older 3ds its not rlly an issue but i have a new 3ds and having to screw the bottom plate everytime i want to change something would be so annoying without it
@@novelnygma sorry, I thought it was pretty straightforward! You just type in the number of items you want and hit save! You can overwrite the 99 items you have by setting it to 0 or 1!
yeah this video is great! i used this to give myself a bunch of hair colour sprays. for anyone else who only wants to tweak an item value or two: - set all of the numbers for the options on the "Items edit" tab to 0 - click the blue "..." bubble on Goods items - the items should show as how much you actually have on the save. just tweak the values for the items you want tweaking - hit the checkmark in the bottom right and back out - hit save there might be a more elegant way to do it, but that's what i just did and it went totally fine. wanted to share since it's kind of an overwhelming page when it's your first time doing it. thankfully you'll have a backup so don't worry about messing up :-] thanks again creator for the vid
This has been the first actually helpful guide I've seen work for me! I had a bunch of other later versions downloaded, but none of them could even read my save file. It only worked after downloading the exact version you had. Do you have any suggestions for what version of the Miitopia save editor I should use for my Miitopia save?
This is the best video I've found about the Tomodachi life save editor. I will consider giving it a try. :) Your character looks so unique! Does a ref sheet exist for this character? I really want to draw that character now 👀
OMG THANK YOUUUU!!!! I'm working on a ref sheet as much as I can but I'm a very slow artist and I'm SO backed up with uni work rn. I'll post the sheet as SOON as its done i promise
@@HeroFourever Hello Four, don't worry. I know the pressure of exams and work so I'm fine with the ref taking long. Take much time and good luck obviously for Uni!! I tried using the editor and it worked really well!! Unfortunately, when I tried to use it the second time, the editor didn't show my copy. So as much as I tried to insert my back up into the editor, it didn't work sadly 😔 is there any limits to the editor? My file is fine, it's not corrupted. Just the editor not showing my save file ^_^"
@@BESIDJU666 There is no limit to the editor, you have to back up your save right before you edit it though, did you do that? And make sure your save is in the right folder when you open it, and that you pick the right region.
Oh man I got so scared cuz I totally corrupted my save the first time I tried this lmao It's fine, I made extra backups though. Anyways I wanted to ask... I uploaded my data into the editor for the first time and it worked fine but then when I went to reload the data back into the editor for some reason my data won't load. It's on the same version you use too, and I even downloaded a second editor but still nothing. Please help and I thought I'd reach out since you're the master ;-;
@HeroFoureverOkay, so it has been a bit… but I got it to work! I still thank you so much for this tutorial. Now I can make my OCs siblings and have DJ Yellow and Student be lovers mwahahahha
Important info: It DOES work with the Japanese version. You just cant automatically select it. You have to actually own it (or have it on citra) for it to work.
heeyyyyy i followed everything to a T - made backups in checkpoint, downloaded the same exact tomodachi save editor version, only edited small things like money and items, saved each time - but when i go back into checkpoint it wont let me select any of the backups ive made + either doesn't save anything or doesn't let me restore anything i don't know if i'm missing anything or if i did something wrong but ive watched the video multiple times...
Good video, though I wish you explained more on how the items function works. I was attempting to save edit to give myself every single clothing item, but I can't figure out how to do that.
sorry about that lol, its actually super simple which is why i didn't cover it, in the items menu type in how many of each item you want, and click on the icon to give it an orange background to unlock everything. then save and thats it!
hiii, great video but I have a problem :( I made all my miis friends with eachother manually and it says my gamefile is corrupted, I checked if I accidentally made them friends with inexistent miis but no, and they arent friends with themselves either, dont know what to do pls help :(:(:(:(
I wish this works for Japanese tomodachi life, will plan on editing my SD card version on my modded 2ds! :) (i don't wanna corrupt my cartridge verson of the usa one :v)
im trying to make two specific miis fall in love but the save editor is saying stuff like "You must select a 'friend' mii" and "Must don't have a special someone" any tips?
oh those are just warnings, the editor can't tell if you've picked the right mii, it'll always say that! the editor was originally french so its english is a bit broken, just make sure the 2 miis are friends but arent dating
Why when I set two miis as best friends, my game instantly corrupts? The two miis im setting up as besties don't have best friends, so shouldn't the role be open? I made sure it was set as best friends for both characters in the editor. Pls help!!! Love ur channel
it could be their friendship level, or their relation to each other. also it could be you';re not saving it properly, make sure you use the blue save button before changing to a different mii or it doesn't save.
i did everything step by step, but was a bit confused by the last part on check point, you said click the right shoulder button which would be restore, but the video of your ds said backup instead, i tried the right shoulder one and went in my game and everything was the same as before i even edited anything, any help? ☹️
Ok, so there are 2 buttons, backup and restore, and they can be controlled by tapping the word on your screen OR using the left/right sholder buttons. Backup takes the save data from your game and copies it to a folder on your SD card. Restore looks in that same folder, looks for a save data file, and puts the file back into your game. So you need to backup your game, edit the save however you want, put the new save file into that folder, and then restore it.
Idk if this is normal but, I changed some things in my save file and they just didn't happen on my island. So I tried again and it just wasn't registering my island, like it opened an empty save file. I even made a new backup as everything was fine on my island. Can anyone help with this?
you may not be saving it right, or you may be editing the file wrong. the 3ds has its own backup of your island it uses if something goes wrong, so thats why you're not seeing changes. what did you try to change?
@ i managed to fix the empty save file thing (i downloaded an older version of the editor) but it still wont save the changes. i edited my miis favourites, my money and my inventory. the older version also just doesn’t have a save button apart from on the mii editor page (unless i’m rlly stupid)
fights are tricky. Ive only tried it a few times and it worked once. try waiting for a natural fight to happen between any miis, then upload that save to the editor and copy the fight over to the miis you want to fight
Do you know how to do this with citra? I've been trying to save a relationship with travel tickets and I can NEVER get any, if not do you have any tips on raising chances for stuff like that?
I don't know much about citra but you can definitely use the editor if you can access your save data. Sadly there isn't a way to increase the odds of getting items.
@@HeroFoureverOn the topic of item odds, do you know if items have set probabilities of showing up after you play with a Mii? For example, the gold ingot I’ve noticed shows up once in a blue moon, but the hotel toiletries show up almost every time on my save file. It doesn’t change anything because as you said the odds can’t be changed, but still curious regardless
@@Ahhahahahaha_urmum a bit late, but if you're using citra on pc you can access your save by right clicking on the game in the menu and choosing 'open save data location'!
@HeroFourever hi i attempted it again a little after i sent the comment and it worked!! i probably did something wrong (which i have NO clue what) but thank you soo much!! it was super easy once i got the hang of it
@HeroFourever i wanted to make my miis friends by making one of them have the issue "i want to be friends with [mii]" and i put the other mii's name in the target thingy. i hit both save buttons, and in checkpoint it wouldnt restore. it kept kicking me out without the "successufly restored" message, do you know what im doing wrong?
I assume it’s best to unlock some of the shops first before doing this ? edit: worked! tysm! my miis randomly all fell in love but its still awesome LMAO
so i followed all of your instructions but whenever i did it it either corrupted the save file or nothing happened.. is it because of me pressing the option to unlock the import wear location? because that's the main reason why i've been trying to do this and i don't know what to do 😞
i'm not exactly sure what you mean, but i'm guessing that youve not followed the steps correctly in checkpoint. first you back up your tomodachi life save data. then you load that data into the save editor after you've edited your save, you save it to your sd card in the same spot the original data was. then you go back into checkpoint and restore the new data into your tomodachi cartridge. and if theres a corruption then restore the backup that the save editor made.
HII! ik this is kind of a dumb question but i dont understand what you did in the last part, when you put the edited save on tomodachi life using ceckpoint. when i press the right shoulder button it doenst do anything ? can you please re-explain what you did ?? BTW your persona/oc is so cool!!
@@Pinku-no-hoshi No worries! So in checkpoint you select the game you want the save files of, then you press “A” on the game. Then to extract the save data you press either the extract button or the left shoulder button, and to restore the save data after you edited it you press restore or the right shoulder button!
Can anyone help me with my tomosaxhi life save file? It got restarted and it created a new one right after I saved my mini to be friends with another. Any help?
Hi, thank u so much for ur tutorial but I used it and made all my miis friends with eachother and it says my data is corrupted and will be deleted (i exited). I did use the friend all button but I have no missing miis and I made sure that no miis were friends with themselves so nothing shouldve gone wrong im hoping u can help me tho :((
you probably just missed one, it happens to me a lot don't worry. First of all there's a backup of your unedited save in the save editor folder if you need. but if you still want to edit it then try going into every empty mii slot and using the set all to unknown button.
@HeroFourever Update: Thank you, that worked. I'm not sure why I kept forgetting to do that but thank you very much. I'm really glad I can make siblings siblings now (unless the game forces me to give them parents to work, in which case I'm just gonna add dummy characters)
Update two: absolutely miserable to report i'm the dumbest ass known to man. you say hit the RIGHT shoulder button (restore) but in my absolute GENIUS i kept hitting the left (backup)
Also this would have helped 15 year old me so much because when my mii got married to my brother and had KIDS i quit and then sent that island to the shadow realm
I tried using this mod, however every time i put back my sd card and start the game my previous thing starts and not my modded version. How do i make my modded version show up?
Same thing happens to me but instead of just not working it also has a chance to just straight up corrupt itself - what folders are the good folders again ?
I have a question: When I boot up Checkpoint, hovering over the "New..." slot and pressing the R shoulder button does nothing; it isn't an action. So when I boot up Tomodachi Life (straight after putting the edited save data into my 3DS), it tells me that the save data is corrupted. Any help, please?
the "new" isn't a slot, its a button to MAKE a slot/folder/backup! as i said in the video, you have to make a backup first, if you didn't do that you'd have nothing to edit in the save editor
so like, m not sure if m doing smth wrong, but i cant exactly get the edited version on2 my game. I’ve tried the restore n back up options both on my ds 4 the final step, but tomodachi still plays the pre-edited version oof
you may be placing your edited version into the wrong folder on your 3ds. make sure its saved in the same folder that you extracted your original save into!
everytime i fix things and import it back into the game it says it corrupted and I have to go and fix it again.. is there anyway to fix this or should I just do one thing at a time..? Also do I backup my save data again everytime I go and am going to edit it?
@@bodiezz yes you have to back it up every time to edit it, and for the corruptions maybe edit small things at a time. I’ve gotten corruptions from doing too much, it could be the game can’t process the changes or maybe you accidentally pressed a wrong button, but take it slow.
@@kinzy816well in my personal experience I didn’t have a problem. The miis for me are gay and in a relationship and both use male pronouns and are referred to as husbands, I haven’t made them have a child yet so I don’t know if that’s where it becomes problematic
i have so many problems with this application....... no matter the version it never loads my save data/?????????????????? :p its also really hard to navigate because the buttons glitch out ((also i RLLY like ur oc/persona watever its rlly creative
yeah it's very glitchy, my buttons do that too sometimes. With the save data there may be a problem with the save data extractor you're using or the region of your save or your pc. AND THANK YOUUUUUUU!!! My persona is so fun to draw :D
Question, Is there a way to remove friendships/ relationships from miis since I do it the way you would add friends to them but it wouldn't work (I'm asking this since Im tired of my 20 yr old mii to fall in love with a 70 yr old senior)
this would’ve benefitted 12 year old me cuz when the miis of my parents got divorced I cried myself to sleep
LMAO MY MOM MARRIED MY GRANDAD IN MY FIRST SAVE
As a kid I put my crush as spouse and idk if this happens to everyone but I SWEAR every mii labeled as spouse is going to get rejected or reject your mii no matter WHAT.
In mine the cousins Rex and Isabelle married and had children............... Also these siblings frsle and indie married
Pls make one of these about animal crossing new leaf save editor CUS IM CONFUUUUUSED
@@daniphantomz yeah that one is big lol, i'll work on that asap!!!!
Tomodachi... In... 2024... Holy hell

"data is corrupted and cannot be saved."
once I started hacking it's now more like
"oh, my data is corrupted? Oh well I'll just fix it or hack back all my stuff like it never happened"
yeah
ive seen even scarier corruptions on the internet...
data is corrupted and will now be deleted
you can repair the save file from the save editor ig
despite having already known the save editor for probably years now, this got on my home page, i got curious n wanted to see how you'd go about explaining this. good video btw! fun n easy to understand.. also you look cool!
Thank you, that means a lot!!!!
This editor how I find out my mii’s fav food is “split-pea soup”… no it isnt girl
thank you so much! you got on my for you page and thanks to you characters that i really wanted for them to be together, are now a couple! :D
This video came at the most opportune time because I just got back into tomodachi life, tysm!
somebody needs to find a way to make a mod that lets them be gay without corrupting the game
Worked like a charm! Best tutorial so far , favorite part was def “or maybe you already had a modded one and skipped to this part”
One of the best videos explaining the topic! It was like the stars alligned. Right as I begin using my hacked 3DS, boom, new and uploaded video, with great retention! I love the pacing of the video, keep it up!!

8:55 id like to add that you can use ftpd instead of turning off the console and taking out the sd card
download winscp on your computer and you can just edit files through a server
for older 3ds its not rlly an issue but i have a new 3ds and having to screw the bottom plate everytime i want to change something would be so annoying without it
yeah I mentioned it in the video but just started using it today, new favourite method! My 3ds sd slot is SO finicky so I hate removing it.
also i remembered on the new 3ds models you can access it (microSD data) through the settings and connect to a computer on the same wifi!
amazing tutorial however i wish you explained the items editor because i accidentally just gave myself 99 of every piece of clothing in the game
@@novelnygma sorry, I thought it was pretty straightforward! You just type in the number of items you want and hit save! You can overwrite the 99 items you have by setting it to 0 or 1!
yeah this video is great! i used this to give myself a bunch of hair colour sprays.
for anyone else who only wants to tweak an item value or two:
- set all of the numbers for the options on the "Items edit" tab to 0
- click the blue "..." bubble on Goods items
- the items should show as how much you actually have on the save. just tweak the values for the items you want tweaking
- hit the checkmark in the bottom right and back out
- hit save
there might be a more elegant way to do it, but that's what i just did and it went totally fine. wanted to share since it's kind of an overwhelming page when it's your first time doing it. thankfully you'll have a backup so don't worry about messing up :-]
thanks again creator for the vid
11:48 An important note is that if you change the genders of both miis in a relationship, it wont corrupt your save!
Omgg ty I used this to get all the SpotPass items. Wish they were still available to get in 2025 and not almost impossible without save editors 😭

no you have to do that in game

Ok, so there are 2 buttons, backup and restore, and they can be controlled by tapping the word on your screen OR using the left/right sholder buttons.

@ i managed to fix the empty save file thing (i downloaded an older version of the editor) but it still wont save the changes. i edited my miis favourites, my money and my inventory. the older version also just doesn’t have a save button apart from on the mii editor page (unless i’m rlly stupid)
@@siriddot try doing one thing at a time, i know its silly but sometimes you have to edit in small batches
Help, every time I try to make a fight against 2 miis it doesn’t work, and idk what the extract button does what do I do
fights are tricky. Ive only tried it a few times and it worked once. try waiting for a natural fight to happen between any miis, then upload that save to the editor and copy the fight over to the miis you want to fight
Do you know how to do this with citra? I've been trying to save a relationship with travel tickets and I can NEVER get any, if not do you have any tips on raising chances for stuff like that?
I don't know much about citra but you can definitely use the editor if you can access your save data. Sadly there isn't a way to increase the odds of getting items.
@@HeroFoureverOn the topic of item odds, do you know if items have set probabilities of showing up after you play with a Mii? For example, the gold ingot I’ve noticed shows up once in a blue moon, but the hotel toiletries show up almost every time on my save file. It doesn’t change anything because as you said the odds can’t be changed, but still curious regardless
@@brycj14128 there's no concrete proof but I believe that some items have higher odds than others
@@HeroFourever Kay thank you 👍🏿 Imma see how long Peter and Lois last until I can get ahold of the save file
@@Ahhahahahaha_urmum a bit late, but if you're using citra on pc you can access your save by right clicking on the game in the menu and choosing 'open save data location'!
hii ive tried like 4 times and nothing happened :( my game is on the sd card and ive followed every step the same and nothing changed at all
are you restoring it properly? are you saving the file in the right spot? are you hitting the blue save button as well as the white save button?
@HeroFourever hi i attempted it again a little after i sent the comment and it worked!! i probably did something wrong (which i have NO clue what) but thank you soo much!! it was super easy once i got the hang of it
@HeroFourever i wanted to make my miis friends by making one of them have the issue "i want to be friends with [mii]" and i put the other mii's name in the target thingy. i hit both save buttons, and in checkpoint it wouldnt restore. it kept kicking me out without the "successufly restored" message, do you know what im doing wrong?
@ huh thats odd, you may need to update checkpoint or try a different save manager like jksm
@HeroFourever ok tysm for your help!
Do you know if there is anyway to do this for PC emulation?
it depends on what you're using but yes you just need to find where the save data is stored
I assume it’s best to unlock some of the shops first before doing this ?
edit: worked! tysm! my miis randomly all fell in love but its still awesome LMAO
i did it and i managed to NOT CORRUPT MY GAME!!! WOOHOOOOO
fourever thankful for this video 🙏🙏
I honestly have no idea how to give myself items, like does the x99 mean I already have everything??? WHAT DO I DO
lol the x99 is HOW MANY of each item you'll get. its an all or nothing thing
so i followed all of your instructions but whenever i did it it either corrupted the save file or nothing happened.. is it because of me pressing the option to unlock the import wear location? because that's the main reason why i've been trying to do this and i don't know what to do 😞
yeah its definitely the import wear. why dont you just unlock it manually? all you have to do is enable streetpass and spotpass
@ oh okay i feel a little dumb now 🥲 but i’ll try to do it manually maybe it’s something with my internet or that it’s modded but i’ll try something
Hey so when loading cheakpoint after getting stuff on save editer it would not let me back it up and no changes where made to my save
and i cant even restore my old save
i'm not exactly sure what you mean, but i'm guessing that youve not followed the steps correctly in checkpoint.
first you back up your tomodachi life save data.
then you load that data into the save editor
after you've edited your save, you save it to your sd card in the same spot the original data was.
then you go back into checkpoint and restore the new data into your tomodachi cartridge.
and if theres a corruption then restore the backup that the save editor made.
HII! ik this is kind of a dumb question but i dont understand what you did in the last part, when you put the edited save on tomodachi life using ceckpoint. when i press the right shoulder button it doenst do anything ? can you please re-explain what you did ?? BTW your persona/oc is so cool!!
@@Pinku-no-hoshi No worries! So in checkpoint you select the game you want the save files of, then you press “A” on the game. Then to extract the save data you press either the extract button or the left shoulder button, and to restore the save data after you edited it you press restore or the right shoulder button!
Can anyone help me with my tomosaxhi life save file? It got restarted and it created a new one right after I saved my mini to be friends with another. Any help?
you may have done something wrong, the game erases itself when it thinks its corrupted and making miis friends is one of the hardest things to do
17:02 HERO!!!! you can't just say perchance!
hehehe
perchance
My Tomodachi life save has been getting rusty for awhile; maybe I should play it again
ALSOOOOOOO, I dont realy understand the last step of putting the edited save back in the game :(
its the save as taking the save from the game! make sure your new save is in the correct folder, then hit restore in checkpoint
@HeroFourever TYSMMMMM!!!!! :D
I didn’t realize you were the same person on TikTok with the yaoi Mario and Luigi (🙁) until I saw your avatar
NOT THE YAOI MARIO BROTHERS IM SO SORRY
AHHH IK THIS IS A LIL BIT OLD, BUT HOW DO I OPEN THE SAVE EDITORRR IM NEW TO MODDINGG :'333
LOL ITS JUST AN APPLICATION? YOU JUST DOUBLE CLICK THE EXE IN THE ZIP FOLDER YOU DOWNLOAD OFF GITHUB
what if i say i downloaded both v5 and v4 save editors
well idk you do you ig
I tried to do the friendship changes (changing each mii individually) and change their favorite foods but when I opened my game, nothing changed :(
Did you restore the save properly? you have to hit save in the editor and then move the new file into the same directory that your original save was.
@HeroFourever I did, only the money changed, not sure what I did wrong with that :/
@@LeilaBeila_ oh, some windows have 2 save buttons, the big white one and a smaller blue one. you gotta press both every time you change small details
@@HeroFourever OH! I didn't know there were two save buttons, thank you!
@@LeilaBeila_ how long did this take?
OH MY LORD THANK YOU
NO PROBLEM!!!!
Hi, thank u so much for ur tutorial but I used it and made all my miis friends with eachother and it says my data is corrupted and will be deleted (i exited). I did use the friend all button but I have no missing miis and I made sure that no miis were friends with themselves so nothing shouldve gone wrong im hoping u can help me tho :((
you probably just missed one, it happens to me a lot don't worry. First of all there's a backup of your unedited save in the save editor folder if you need. but if you still want to edit it then try going into every empty mii slot and using the set all to unknown button.
Girl help what do I do when the save button doesnt work like i hit save and it says saved but no changes occur like what do i do
if you're editing miis you have to save between switching to a different window, theres no autosave
@HeroFourever Update: Thank you, that worked. I'm not sure why I kept forgetting to do that but thank you very much.
I'm really glad I can make siblings siblings now (unless the game forces me to give them parents to work, in which case I'm just gonna add dummy characters)
Update two: absolutely miserable to report i'm the dumbest ass known to man. you say hit the RIGHT shoulder button (restore) but in my absolute GENIUS i kept hitting the left (backup)
Also this would have helped 15 year old me so much because when my mii got married to my brother and had KIDS i quit and then sent that island to the shadow realm
13:35 Ahhh
I see this game have same problems like The Sims 2
I tried using this mod, however every time i put back my sd card and start the game my previous thing starts and not my modded version. How do i make my modded version show up?
Even when i use restore.
is your newely edited save in the right folder? are you pressing restore on the right folder? are you using the save editor version I recommended?
Same thing happens to me but instead of just not working it also has a chance to just straight up corrupt itself - what folders are the good folders again ?
How do i do it digitally?
i lost my physical copy and installed it on my ds☹️
exact same way!
Last Question: Is it safe to use the Friend All button if you have no missing slots?
as long as none of your miis are married or have had children then yes
I have a question: When I boot up Checkpoint, hovering over the "New..." slot and pressing the R shoulder button does nothing; it isn't an action. So when I boot up Tomodachi Life (straight after putting the edited save data into my 3DS), it tells me that the save data is corrupted. Any help, please?
the "new" isn't a slot, its a button to MAKE a slot/folder/backup! as i said in the video, you have to make a backup first, if you didn't do that you'd have nothing to edit in the save editor
I need halp! I did every instruction properly but nothing saves! I even double save when I make changes but it doesn't appear on the island!
do you restore it afterwards? If so is your save in the right folder? if so what changes are you making?
@HeroFourever I do restore it but does it corrupt if you make your lookalike's relationship status to a married couple's child?
@@franzadvent1232 if the lookalike is an adult and the child isnt aged up with an age o matic then yes
@@HeroFourever alright thanks
@@HeroFoureverthe save editor is working now!
its not letting me open the save editor app !! Im on a MacBook Air :(
ah nvm im just going to use my hp laptop! btw guys its not compatible for MacBook
its probably not compatible then :(
so like, m not sure if m doing smth wrong, but i cant exactly get the edited version on2 my game. I’ve tried the restore n back up options both on my ds 4 the final step, but tomodachi still plays the pre-edited version oof
you may be placing your edited version into the wrong folder on your 3ds. make sure its saved in the same folder that you extracted your original save into!
everytime i fix things and import it back into the game it says it corrupted and I have to go and fix it again.. is there anyway to fix this or should I just do one thing at a time..? Also do I backup my save data again everytime I go and am going to edit it?
@@bodiezz yes you have to back it up every time to edit it, and for the corruptions maybe edit small things at a time. I’ve gotten corruptions from doing too much, it could be the game can’t process the changes or maybe you accidentally pressed a wrong button, but take it slow.
@@HeroFourever thank you sm!
Is there any way to create natural romance between two miis of the same gender with the save editor?
no you cant force two miis to be gay, it REALLY messes with things. you have to make one of them trans/set to the wrong gender
@@HeroFourever aw, that's too bad. Thank you!
@@kinzy816well in my personal experience I didn’t have a problem. The miis for me are gay and in a relationship and both use male pronouns and are referred to as husbands, I haven’t made them have a child yet so I don’t know if that’s where it becomes problematic
i have so many problems with this application....... no matter the version it never loads my save data/?????????????????? :p its also really hard to navigate because the buttons glitch out ((also i RLLY like ur oc/persona watever its rlly creative
yeah it's very glitchy, my buttons do that too sometimes. With the save data there may be a problem with the save data extractor you're using or the region of your save or your pc.
AND THANK YOUUUUUUU!!! My persona is so fun to draw :D
Question, Is there a way to remove friendships/ relationships from miis since I do it the way you would add friends to them but it wouldn't work (I'm asking this since Im tired of my 20 yr old mii to fall in love with a 70 yr old senior)
if their level isnt too high i would just delete and remake one of them tbh 🥲
