Hello to all again

Here with another trouble now that I was able to get working the Real Time Walkthrough, I tried loading some of my games and all I get are new savefiles!

I tried loading several different games and whenever I start them is as if I started a new game, no load on any of them!

I read somewhere to ran a chkdsk /f on it, and converting the saves on shunyweb. Tried both with no good results.

Any clues of what can I do? fortunately I have all of my savegames backed up.

What im using

American DSi
Ez Flash Vi
1.90OB11
latest resetsp.bin
Kernel 5


Config on shuny web

Source format

Cyclo DS

Target

EZ Flash V [autodetect]
EZ Flash V [512]

(tried both with no results)

any clue of what can I do to get them work? other than start again all of them?

Thanks for your time

Elmaik

No need to convert cyclods saves. It's compatible with the EZV series.
You just have to put all your cyclods saves in the folder /SAVE to be able to use them on EZVi.

Concerning walkthrough files, if it wasn't a bug you have reported on the bugtracker, please close the ticket you have opened.

Thank you for your quick reply, but I'm still having problems with my saves, heres a quick example.

I was playing Suikoden on my Cyclo, got a bit forward in the game then saved.
My DSi arrived and I migrated all of my saves to the /SAVE folder in root of my EZ Flash Vi.
Booting up Suikoden it just gives me the option to start a new game.

I really dont know why that happened but I would love to be able to have all of my old savefiles.

Thanks again

Oh! By the way I *think* I already closed the ticket.

Don't know what to say. All my cycloDS saves works on my EZVi.
I use the Save Mode Alternative on it, so my saves are in /SAVES on cyclods microSD
So only thing i have done is copy the content of this folder to the EZVi microSD, in folder /SAVE and all went fine.

  • 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!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
    i need help with nusspli failed downloads, can someone respond to my thread? pretty please:wub:
