  1. But that still doesn't explain why the software works on my 8M saves... Oh well, I'll just stick to pokesav which I still need 8M saves for. Question: Does pokesav work for other peoples' 4M saves with either Plat of HGSS because if it does then I know I have problem with my R4.
  2. That actually doesn't matter. What I find strange is that I can't use the PPSE-DS unless my saves are 8M. Otherwise my saves just corrupts and the game starts as if there's no save file. I'll try it again when I have time but I specifically know that I couldn't get this program or pokesav to work with a 4M save file. Both worked fine with 8M save files though... But seeing that this program was designed for 4M I can't work out why I have this problem. Note, as a reminder, that I have an R4DS clone (as in clone of the clone... I think), I'm using YSmenu and I'm using the EU version of Soul Silver and anyone of these may be causing a problem that I don't know about. (Everything is latest software though as in updated two days ago)
  3. The games definitely use 8M save files. They'll work fine at 4M mostly but I've heard some people only had trouble with battle recorder saves on Plat when they're save was too small. If you add the latest savlib file on your flashcard it's meant to make games use correct file sizes if your card doesn't automatically detect the correct size (e.g. my R4 using YSmenu). With that file the saves definitely are created at 8M so... and pokesav only works when the saves are at 8M anyway, or was that just my game Anyway, I can't get PPSE-DS to work on my 4M saves when using SS, it just corrupts the save file (and I have to delete it using a PC and chkdsk). But it will change what I want on my 8M saves and then shrink it back down to 4M. It's crazy because I then have to use the program to double the size again before I can use the save editor. That's my main problem, which is weird considering that this program was obviously designed for the 4M saves... I'm confused Note: I have the European version of the game but that doesn't stop this program working on 8M saves. And pokesav works on both US and EU the same except for the AR codes (I need 8M saves for that). Edit: I don't know why a lapsed into bits here when I used bytes before. Probably because of Pingouin7's post.
  4. Will PPSE-DS support the 1mb saves or the newer games?? The games run at 512kb but they do corrupt if you ever use more data than the amount allocated in the save files. I have SS and pokesav PC works when the save is 1mb in size but this program converts the size to 512kb so I have to convert it back to 1mb every time I use this program (if anyone else want to software to convert the save files just pm me, it took me a long time to find). It just means I can't use this program with my latest games without risking corrupting (which I have done before, the game loaded one day and then wasn't recognised the next when using Plat...). I actually finished the game with Plat and it corrupted later but SS probably uses more data and so I don't want to risk it all failing on me (though I do backup). Just wondering...
  5. I have both Pokemon Diamond and Platinum for EU countries. Diamond always worked for me when I edited it with pokesav but Platinum does not (I use the correct pokesav). I have an R4 Deluxe/SDHC and the main problem I have is that pokemon that I add to the box never show up after loading, and if I try to edit the party I corrupt the save file. So I was wondering, does pokesav platinum work for the EU version of Pokemon Pt. When I re-read the save with pokesav the pokemon is where it should be but the game never shows it. Also, sometimes other parts of the game a read wrong (such as the fact that it believes that I have around 252 repel steps left). I'm about to try running it in YSMenu but I don't think that's the problem. I'm also re-copying the rom onto the flashcard to see if that fixes it. (Which means back to the start once again!). I know that the P/D pokesav worked but does the Pt one work for PKMN Pt? I've found one reference to this before but it was about pearl which I have never tried (I used diamond and it worked). Please see if you can answer my question. Edit: I also re-downloaded Pokesav to make sure that wasn't the problem...it didn't help.
