Can,t load saved files

Hi all,

I got an problem with Pokemon Black, yesterday i was playing pokemon Black i saved it just ingame but now when i open desume again and open the pokemon black file i get only "new game".
I thought the ingame saving just does't work, but i found a DSV file with the same codename as pokemon black in the same folder were my pokemon black file is also located.
So it did save, but i have no idea how i can get that DSV file to open, so i can continu my game from yesterday.
I tried to extract the pokemon black file and DSV file in 1 folder, and tried to use another Desume ( 0.9.8 instead off 0.9.6) but this didn't work.

does someone know how i can get my saved game to work?
thx

Re: Can,t load saved files

just because it saved doesnt mean it saved correctly. in fact, the .dsv file gets created when the game boots up.

download a new desmume 0.9.8, play pokemon black, notice where desmume writes the .dsv file. then close the emulator and copy the save you think is good on top of it. reopen the emulator and pokemon black, and your save file should be there.. otherwise it never saved correctly to begin with, which is entirely possible if you use an ancient desmume version like 0.9.6

Thx for youre help, but it didn't work.
In Desmume 0.9.8 indeed the saving does work.
but not the saving from 0.9.6, when i put the the save file on from 0.9.6 on top off the save file from 0.9.8 its still not there, but its no big off deal (only lost about  4 hours off gameplay) so i gues i stared over again.
