Unable to get .duc file working on DraStic

[MPFive]

Hey everybody,

So I downloaded a save file from GameFAQs for Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective cause as I was playing through, got to chapter 6 and for whatever reason it went back to my home screen. Went back in, back to chapter 4. Fuck Im not doing 2 chapters again. I'll just download a save file and go to the chapter in question again.

So I downloaded from Here and put the file in the save states folder. No dice. Ok, maybe delete the old one and try again. Nope. Wait, silly me, I have to rename it to the exact name, how else is it gonna do it? Copy name, change save file... no.

I must be in the wrong spot, but I can't find another folder. Any help please?

only files recognized by DraStic are backup saves (.dsv) and savestates (.dss). You may need a converter if that save is an ingame save but if that is a type of savestate, then idunno if its possible to import it to drastic. also, just a tip from a fellow gamer who forgets to save at one point or another, save often

Ah Ok, thanks for that. Its just a normal save file (Not a savetate). Any good converters you trust?

here is the save file converter i use for nds
Google -> Unique Geeks Save Converters

idk if the coverted file will work for you . it did not work all the times for me .
btw i use Action replay as source for the duc file and desemume as target in order to be converted to dsv .
You can do some tests yourself though..
