just beat the elite 4, and it saves and goes to credits, but when it loads again it doesn't save the game it just brings me to new game which then Ihave to load state and well elite 4 all over again,how do I fix the save?

zeromus · 2009-10-21 02:28:46

a lot of people have this problem. a lot of people don't. in order to investigate it i need a dsv and a savestate just before the final 4 finish dying (so that I dont have to do anything to kill them), and i need to know what emulator youre using.

mike10522 · 2009-10-21 02:44:39

how do I get them to you?

but get them I mean how form having the game loaded, I can save the state as a .dst

here we go I think.

got some other place u want me to post them just say.

zeromus · 2009-10-21 04:04:26

your savefile (.dsv) is the wrong size. therefore you have never saved, throughout the entire game, because it would not have worked. you must not have seen the 1 million threads on the web talking about pokemon savefile sizes in desmume. since you have never saved before, I don't know why you would expect the save file to work now after fighting the elite 4. you should check our faq for a discussion on why what youve done by relying on savestates is a terrible mistake.

you will have to wait for 0.9.5 for an option to repair your save file, which you would do before fighting the elite 4. or you might find that an svn version on the web or this version here

http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=210670

it will require using the FORCE AS CURRENT option, which will in turn require using the search function on this forum to find where it has already been discussed, or just your ingenuity.

mike10522 · 2009-10-21 04:09:24

Don't understand what you said 100% but I have saved throughout the game many times,

zeromus · 2009-10-21 04:11:34

But did you ever LOAD the savegame? nope. So you don't know whether it worked. The faq discusses this.

Check the faq for a very special topic just for you called

Why can't Pokemon save after beating the elite 4

mike10522 · 2009-10-21 04:14:28

Feel soo loved XD, guess is a bad time I just got done raping zeromus on FF lol....

That sucks so there is no way to fix it until the update comes out, was looking forward to battle frontier and such. when will the update be out?

zeromus · 2009-10-21 04:18:01

I have no idea, but I just realized that 0.9.5 won't help you and you will HAVE to use gocha's build which is discussed now in the faq

mike10522 · 2009-10-21 04:23:10

you kinda lost me......

zeromus · 2009-10-21 04:26:35

1. go to the faq.
2. follow the link to gocha's build
3. download gocha's build
4. follow the instructions on the faq.

mike10522 · 2009-10-21 04:31:08

ok gotta let credits roll, I opened the rom, loaded the state and it saved and rolling credits..

btw, love how you get online as soon as I ask a question lol..

Is there anyway to turn a NDS emu, to link with others on your pc?

zeromus · 2009-10-21 04:35:54

what you said doesnt sound like all the steps.
the forum stays open in a firefox tab.
im not sure what youre asking, but there isnt any way at all to setup links between games in this emulator.

mike10522 · 2009-10-21 04:36:20

Nope it didn't work

I downloaded gotcha's build, opened the pokemon rom, loaded my save state from the other emu and finished the game didn't work

because you didnt follow the @*&#@#ing steps. load the savestate, set the size, use force as current, save the game. exit the emulator and verify that you can load the game from the savefile. if you can, then load it and play through to complete the game.

mike10522 · 2009-10-21 04:42:49

What size?

zeromus · 2009-10-21 04:47:06

THE FAQ SAYS WHAT SIZE DID YOU EVEN READ IT

mike10522 · 2009-10-21 04:49:21

I saw it a few mins ago, the credits are rolling on the game as we speek

mike10522 · 2009-10-21 04:59:42

YAY! it worked zemmy, thx for helping me lol. altho i can be a bit slow =p

zeromus · 2009-10-21 05:04:56

youre welcome, it is good to know that someone with this problem can indeed be helped by these steps. now I will be even more ruthless to anyone else with this problem.

nut · 2009-10-23 03:01:56

For me it works in the latest SVN Build. I think the save problem was fixed in the latest SVN Build. For anyone that has problem, try out the latest SVN Build.

zeromus · 2009-10-23 06:16:59

nut, it has nothing to do with svn revisions. try to comprehend the discussion above and realize that the problem was caused by the use of an incorrect savefile.

nut · 2009-10-23 23:36:57

Oh yeah the problem is the savefile. It works for me because I mostly save the game using the in-game option through the whole game, and at the end of the game it can lode my savefile. I think the best solution is to restart playing from the beginning.

zeromus · 2009-10-24 18:45:07

nut, you are not capable of comprehending english. this thread discusses a way to fix the problem WITHOUT starting over.
