Issue:
How do I transfer save files from my 3ds to use in Citra?
For example I have nearly a 100% completion on my MK7 game on my 3ds, only lacking the gold kart, how do I get my progress for citra? also how do i get Mii files from my 3ds?
In order for us to provide better support, we need to see the log generated by Citra. This guide will walk you through how you can obtain the log file: How to Upload the Log File.
You can use either threeSD or Checkpoint to transfer your save files. Miis are stored in the Extra Data archive f000000b. Check the tutorials below for detailed explanations.
It is safe. Lots of users have used it in the past. Though you can always use ThreeSD for this as well, though that will also dump pretty much everything else you might ever need from your 3ds/2ds so it will take a little longer. ThreeSD will also kindly deposit everything in the correct folders in citra automatically (if you follow the guide), which is a nice feature that 3dsutils doesn’t have. But yea, it’s safe.
The choice is yours. 3dsutils will get you exactly the files you need (takes less time). ThreeSD will get you the files you need + a whole lot more (takes longer).
