Hacking Pokemon Diamond/Pearl Saving issues.

[cloud9x]

I can get it to load save files that I've downloaded. When I try to save, however, it does it instantaneously OR it takes forever. Either way, when I restart, the save file is presumably corrupt (I get a blue screen with some squigglies, and then a new game begins).

Are there certain settings I should use when patching the rom? I'm using the SC Micro with 1.7 firmware and the 2.57 software.

Thanks for your help. I tried searching the forums for a solution, but wasn't able to hunt one down.

You shouldn't need any special patching options:

The downloaded save files must not be in format or corrupt.

turns out the 2.57 patcher isn't good at what it does to the dp roms.. 2.56, on the other hand, patched it just fine.

thanks anyway.

cheers.
