I've been having some problems with Animal Crossing. I've downloaded it six times, and used two retail backups.

What specifically happens is it freezes. The freezes are sporadic. I can catch a shark, turn it in, and right before I save, BOOM. Having coffee with the pigeon? BOOM. Laughing at that mole? BOOM. Doodling on a cat's face? BOOM. Some days it doesn't freeze at all, others, 20 times. I'm quite frustrated.

I use Configurable USB loader, and my IOSs and loader version are/is current.

Could you post a sysCheck, just so we can be sure? Also, what IOS are you using to run Animal Crossing? What version of CFG Loader are you using? Does this problem occur with any other games? Are you using any cheat codes?

Do you have wiiconect24 on? If so, try turning it off, I had this issue with ACCF, and the real problem was WiiConnect24.

I'll see what I can do with SysCheck next time I get to my Wii (( It's at my apartment, at parents house for a few days )), and I'll try turning off WiiConnect24.

Also, my version of USB Config Loader is current, using the cheatcode to negate Resetti ('cause it froze a lot), and the problem does not occur with other titles. I don't know how to switch IOSs.

I had problems with this using CIOS249. Switched to CIOS223 and I've had no further issues.
One should not experience any problems using 249d2x56 with Animal Crossing: City Folk.

As others said. Make shure that you use the 249d2x56 cIOS, that CFG-Loader is up-to-date, WiiConnect24 off. You can also verify your game with Wiimms ISO Tools (wit -v verify ).

Oh, and disable the cheats (Ocarina off). Often the cheats are causing such problems, my version of SSBB also froze after an battle, disabling the cheats and creating a new savefile (since the old one was corrupted because of the cheat) fixed it.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
