Hacking Pokemon Platinum and framerate issues

[anaxs]

i ahd an r4 from long time ago and since i made my ysmenu its working wonders

 

[Maz7006]

I have also realized a lag on my Acekard 2, also on my EDGE.... it is noticeable only if you concentrate, but its nothing really to worry about, IT DOESN'T AFFECT GAMEPLAY.

That's good then. (it not affecting it too much.)
Still, this whole YMMV-business is annoying.

offtopic: You really should buy a normal monitor instead of a 3rd videocard dude.

ummm my r4 plays platinum perfectly fine without lags. so what u are telling me is that the pretty much outdated r4 is better than the acekard?

What if someone used ysmenu to load the game? is there still lag then?

ps. is this lag fixable with a future firmware update or is the ak2 not capable of running it smoothly?

It depends on the sd mostly, if it's fast or slow, regular or sdhc etc. But the flash card does make a difference sometimes.

It looks like you have the same memory card as the one i just ordered with an acekard 2 (kingston 2gb). do you have any lags with platinum?

Yes in city's and when browsing the bag, but it doesn't really effect gameplay. If you want absolute full speed run it on an emulator on a decently spec'd pc, or just buy the game and support nintendo.

is there also lag on r4? cuz i use kingston 1gb and have pokemon platinum on it and i don't notice any lag at all. maybe u guys are too picky ^^ lol.

You guys should report this on the official Acekard forum, and be loud about it. Maybe they'll fix it.

But judging by past performance, AKAIO is more likely to fix it than AK team.

Well I did report it in their (official acekard team) thread but nothing happened.

It does if you have a lot of items.

Which I am prone to doing.

 

[Silent Storm]

Right now I think it would be best if we find out if Normmatt and Smiths are considering fixing this issue (if fixable and if they know about it) as it seems acekard don't want to fix it.

I would be very grateful if they did (well right now I am grateful that they made AKAIO lol).

I just bought a Copy of Platinum.

Yeah it is slower.

BTW, I bought it for.... SCIENCE!!!

P.S. Does anyone know of a program that can transfer my current save to my new copy of Pokemon Platinum?

I know there was one for SLOT-2 cards, but I dunno if there is one for SLOT-1 cards.

Try using Rudolph's NDS backup tool, its kind of complicated to get started, but once you do it's really quite simple.

 

[Trygle12]

Bah. I tried Eepinator and savsender. Just says file is corrupted and uses backup save file.


I was under the impression that Rudolph's tool was only to back-up the game itself? I just wanna transfer my AK2 save file to my copy of Platinum.

I have not noticed any slowdown yet, when playing Pokemon Platinum using an AceKard 2 and a class 4 sdhc card.
Does this happen in big cities later on? or throughout the game?

 

[Silent Storm]

Mostly busy places like the city where the tv stations is (forgot the name) and the Battle Frontier sometimes

 

[Anhmeister]

Rudolph's tool will allow you to transfer your save files to the legit copy of Platinum, while I haven't tried that game specifically, it has worked for me in other games.
Also, just a thought, is your save a 1MB save? If it's not that might be your problem.

Have you reached Jubilife city yet? I am pretty sure that is the busiest city with a lot of stuff and its one of the biggest cities in the game. If you DID reach Jubilife, is it lagging there? if it doesnt lag in jubilife, it should be good throughout the whole game (except maybe the battle frontier)^

It's raw format....

So it ends up 512KB.
Should I force it to 1 MB?

I think I am not overwriting the back-up save as well. >_>

I'll give up if forcing 1MB doesn't work. Too much hair lost already XD

Also, I am also using Rudolphs tool, it writes O.K., but it doesn't overwrite the backup savedata as well. So it does nothing. :[

lol, I've had it. You win Nintendo. You win Gamefreak.

I guess I should have never run your game ROM.

 

[logical thinker]

The save type is correct, 4Mbit (512KB). http://www.advanscene.com/html/Releases/dbrelds.php?id=3633
Try converting the save: http://www.shunyweb.info/convert.php

 

[Acenima]

I have a DSTT and 2GB kingston, and my game runs smooth and I have no problems with my save.

Actually, it's 2Mbit.

It's just saved twice!

I'll try again. One last time >_>.

Nope.

Even with the all different conversions it doesn't work.

I also found that in some areas using the Mach Bike will lag the screen.
