ROM Hack Pokemon HG/SS fix discussion

[Mechachu]

I dunno... I don't believe that "xx events" thing. It seems pretty random to me >.< I've had it happen after 1-2 and then way more than 25, as well as my friend having the same.

Yes but if he can get past 21-24 actions than we are definitely on to something.

I'm not sure I follow you. You are saying that you have been fine up until the 3rd badge and will let us know of any freezing?

 

[ambitous21]

Yea.. the best place to check it at is at goldenrod after the gym.
I am absolutely sure it only takes 2 events in-game before the thing will freeze..
i resetted about 10 times before giving up..

 

[Hero_Of_Fate]

Yeah, it does seem a bit odd doesn't it, cheeseburger face? I suspect it's only a matter of time, even though the conversation hasn't gotten out of hand yet.

when the game freezes, the ARM9 stops dead over while the ARM7 continues. (Viewing Disassembly in Desmume x64)

We already tried patching arm7 with what I believe to be a D/P arm 7. But I don't know.

No I played through on the Japanese version actually and got to the end of the 2nd gym then got up to goldenrod after a few saves and freezes got the 3rd badge and after that it was made almost unplayable. Earlier today in the 50 page thread we determined the AP goes into hyperdrive after that point

My brother has an R4 SDHC, he is playing the patched rom and his frooze after 33 events

Arm7 has been patched with the JP arm 7 the Plat arm7 and the D/P arm7 and NONE of them worked

He looked in an emulator, one of the files completely stops loading while one continues. Causing a freeze.

More or less, one process is killed while another is still running. Think of it as something similar to playing a game on the PC, when you close out of it, it still runs in the background. One thing actually stops, but not completely, only part of it stops.

 

[rockstar99]

Try the ARM7 of sim city(J)

 

[ambitous21]

I'm thinking it's the point right when you beat Whitney when the AP kicks in?
So.. if we were to skip Whitney and go on with the game, is it possible to just keep playing?
The freeze will still occur.. but i'm ok if it's every 15 minutes.. but not every 2 events post-Whitney..
