Someone here plays this game in Dslinker with no problems? Because I tried to use the xpa patch, and the file was erased after Fire Temple. Then I tried a .sav, but it erased after Forest Temple. They say I need to have flash 4m save file, but I tried that too and it doesn't work. I also heard that it needs a 1mbit size save, but Dslinker don't have that opition. Can someone please help me? Thanks.

I've got a same problem. I use DS Fire Link. And somehow, i manage to "survive" from that disaster by save and exit option. after save, exit to main menu, check the save file, that's all.

For more safety, after play, make sure get backup the sav files. I use flash 2 mb.

O yeah. I don't know why but, when i play it over than 3 hour, the save files will be erased. no matter when i use the save and exit method, when turn on my ds, it will be already erased.

So there is no way to solve this? If I save, go back to main menu then turn off, when i turn on it will not be erased? If I make a backup and my file got deleted, I can get it back and it will not be deleted again? thanks.

Btw, i manage to find out something that trigger the erasing save files.
All of them is happening from my card ( don't know about your's ) :

1. Having ruto crown and keep in my collection. ( Really... Annoying T-T )
2. Have play and turn off my ds for about 8-9 times. ( After i count it for 6 times back up )
3. Still equip bow while save. the next load after turn off will trigger this. ( Give me a break... )
4. Play more than 3 hours ( Still happening )

In order to survive from them :

1. Sell it or trade it quickly after have it ( Not really hard though, but often forgoten ) .
2. Count up how many times i've already use this save file ( Really painful ).
3. Just change my equipment before save it ( piece of cake ).
4. Just play normally ( 2 hour ).

How about this?

After beat the fire temple, quickly do side quest ( like bring mega ice to fish seller at papuchia ) or play some mini games that available and after that, save your game on somewhere beside fire temple.

    @DTApple, gonna download the gdevelop app cuz sometimes i don't have the chance to use my pc

    And I also got an idea for another game

    @Xdqwerty, Its funny because crypto cannot be recovered, just another one of those Nigerian scams that ask you for a Google Play giftcard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBs0AG_MN3g

    @SylverReZ, why are most scams from mid-east countries?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, I've reported the domain directly to their registrar so that they can take action. ;)

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, To be fair, I have no idea.

    Likely because they are not as economic compared to us.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, so their only way of getting money is thru scams?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Exactly.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Why not they just mine Monero instead of scamming vulnerable people? If they have a decent machine they can hit a jackpot at any given time.

    Bitcoin on the other hand, requires a very powerful mining rig and is more costly.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, different cultures so probably they have their reasons
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yes a $2,000 rig for $5 a day
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Or could be in correlation to laws.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Technically, cryptocurrencies aren't illegal, as long as you don't use it for criminal activity. If you sign up with an exchange, and that they get a tip from law enforcement, they have the right to freeze your assets.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, Yea I heard law is vastly different there
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Nigeria's central bank did make crypto illegal before, until last year they lifted the ban. Always make sure to check before you exchange. ;)

    @SylverReZ, speaking of crypto i remember reading about a guy who spend like 10 grand bitcoin on a couple pizzas (when bitcoin wasnt as worthy as nowadays)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's mental. If he had saved up when Bitcoin sky-rocketed in price, then he might've become the next Jeff Bezos for all I know.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, he couldnt know the price was gonna skyrocket anyway
