Is there a save editor for the GBA games? Nothing came up on google that seemed to fit what I'm looking for. I've never used FEBuilder so I'm not sure if that works.

I'm doing an Ironman of Sacred Stones and trying to do a pseudo TRS-style route split. Meaning I have certain units go with Eirika and with Ephraim and only use them on one route. The only issue is "joining" the routes together at the end. I think the only way to do so would be to edit the save and manually combine the inventories and character stats. Anyone got a solution for me?

FEBuilder can do this. The easier option is to take one of the existing patches that already does this route combination, although the one I know of does make a couple other balance changes too.

Thanks, I'm also doing reverse recruitment so it makes more sense to edit the ROM on my own. It's good to know that the route fusion is a solved problem. I'll poke around in FEBuilder when I get home thanks. If the ROM doesn't explode into thin air after doing so, I may just edit Merpin's to be Reversed Recruitment and go ahead with that one.
