Hi,
First post, just looking for a little help here before I screw my brains out. I lost my EDGE card and DSL but luckily back up an old save of my HeartGold game. I've now got a DSi XL and a working Acekard2i with it, but no matter what file extensions I put on the end of the old Pokemon save file, the game cartridge simply wont read it. I've tried everything I can possibly think of (checking everything in Properties of the .sav file is the same as other .sav files, making sure both the ROM and the .sav are titled the exact same), and I still can't get it to work. The game recognises the save file, because it shows up as '16 hours XX mins played' etc etc., but the screen just goes black when I press A on that save to load up the game.
I am running the Danny Phantom Acekard cartridge, with the new 4.21 Acekard firmware, no gimmicks, just the vanilla stuff.
I thought it might be something to do with the fact that my Pokemon save was created on the EDGE card and now it won't let the Acekard read it, also noting the fact that the .sav files created directly by the Acekard are labeled with .nds at the end (to mimmick the ROM I suppose) whereas all my backed up saves from my EDGE card didn't have a file extension within their file name. But i've read elsewhere that the .sav files are interchangeable, so I really don't know what to think.
Please help as I've almost conceded to buy an iEDGE card and see if that works, but that really is last resort for me...
Thanks in advance,
pandabear
