Here's what I did:
1) Downloaded the save (http://db.gamefaqs.com/portable/gbadvance/save/pokemon_emerald_s.sps)
2) Imported it in VBA and saved normally, creating a .sav
3) Used outphase's convertor to convert the new .sav to a .0
4) In the U-DISK Manager, I right clicked the old .0 and wrote the new converted one to it.
5) Started up Emerald on my G6, but after the title screen, it said "The save file has been erased due to corruption or damage," and there is no option to continue a game.
6) If I start a new game and save, then reset the DS, then start Emerald again, my new 0:00 save works fine, with no kind of error message after the title screen.
7) If I go back into the U-DISK Manager after that and rewrite the .0 save I want over all three saves, then start Emerald again, my 0:00 save still shows up.

Do I need a different .ips patch for Emerald or something? I've read through multiple other topics and still can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

EDIT: Alright, I figured it out. I had the save type on VBA set to Flash 64K instead of Flash 128K. Seems pretty obvious now... >_>

    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive

    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign

    Sweet found my Wii u PSU right after I ordered a new one :tpi:
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
