Try create empty text files with these names in that location. Make sure it is not save12.txt.bin, uncheck Hide extensions for known file types in Windows.

Try turning off Hardware Shaders in Emulation>Configuration>Graphics>Advanced tab. See if it allows you to progress past the initial crash area.

Ok. Try this. Now game just freezes on a black screen and the game hangs.

Tried again second time, and crashes.

Try dump the save file(s) from your 3DS with Checkpoint: https://citra-emu.org/wiki/dumping-save-data-from-a-3ds-console then copy them over to Citra’s side. It probably needs the proper files.

I’m helping him. I am his English assistant.

Even with a proper save dump, it still doesn’t work. save8.bin is the proper save file and it doesn’t work. We included save12.bin, save13.bin, and save14.bin as the crash log looked for it.

The game still crashes. Log remains unchanged from above.

It still does not work. Crashes

We dump save files directly from 3DS over to citra side. Still have same problem.
