No sdvt file in 3ds folder

[Habieeru]

I recently used the acnl/welcome amiibo editor and made a backup in JKSM because I had no idea how to install Svdt, I imported the new edited data (just replacing the main file.dat with the edited one) and still nothing changed so I tried downloading sdvt because that's what the tutorial that I was watching said in the first time so I came here to see how to use it and download it so I entered my 3ds folder but there isn't a svdt one inside, I created one and put the files innit, open the hb launcher and the tittle appeared but it didn't let me use it, so I'm wondering if there is a cia or a way to download it

Svdt is really outdated (it needed a special per game.launch permisions that you could set up trough hblauncher), you shouldn't be using it as there are better and simpler options available. If jksv is too complicated give checkpoint a try, you won't be let down.

Yes, there's also a switch version of checkpoint, so download the 3ds one.

@suloku a long time ago I've hidden a personal file inside a old game cartridge, now the only homebrew i've found that can explore the cartridge save space is svdt but it no longer works,
What is the best way to make it work? Use an old homebrew launcher? Ninjhax? Maybe downgrade the firmware?

If you only want to recover the file you can just dump the savegame. I recall jksv also being able to explore the contents though...

If you want to delete the file in the save, just restore the save after removing the file. You might need to delete/reser the cart savegame first to fully remove the file.
Though hblauncher should still support running under different titles, as svdt needs, but it's been so lo g I don't remember how to do it. It had somethi g to do with the xml file.
You may try using and old version of homebrew launcher back from the svdt days, not sure if it will work on current firmwares though.
