Is there anything I can use to actually see the real contents of a 3DS save, or has the encryption algorithm not yet been completely hacked? bin files (that's how the Powersaves device stores its saves to PC). Of course the raw save data looks like a bunch of ASCII garbage-it has to be decrypted! However, the currently existing save de/encrypter tool does NOT recognize. UPDATE 2: Turns out there's a little more to this save-editing than first appears. All I have to do is search for that particular value, and boom, I've opened up the save for editing!

Besides, Codejunkies oh so kindly provided a really EASY save to hack: 'Start game with 999,999,999 P'. This one may be a bit of a tough nut to crack, but if I can find a way to teach a velociraptor how to fire a Nuke Weapon on Turok 2 (for N64), I can figure THIS one out. I've done this before, but not without being able to actually PLAY the game whilst searching for codes/values. Now, if only I could make heads or tails of the seemingly chaotic clumps of gobbledygook amidst all the endless rows of 'FF's. UPDATE: I have discovered where the Powersaves backups are stored-Codejunkies, you just revealed your glaring weakness!

If anyone has any info regarding this possibility, please post it in this thread.

If, however, I find a way to get this to work (and achieve effects for which Codejunkies hasn't provided saves/codes for), then I will have opened the door for others to try the same thing, and basically leave Codejunkies in the dust.yet again. Of course, I do this at my own risk, as an improperly edited Powersave could temporarily 'brick' my 3DS cartridge, or at the very least show up as a 'corrupt save', or whatever. They are obviously NOT stored in the 'Action Replay Powersaves' folder, in Program Files. I may have a way to directly edit 3DS Powersaves (or at least the backups the device makes on my PC), if I can find where the backups are stored.
