First of all, Love the site. Been a lurker here for a while but only now signed up. Onto the problem.
So I was using LameBoy on my R4 card to play Pokemon Red for the extra nostalgia feelings. Halfway through the game whenever I wanted to save (save game + press X/Exit) the game just froze. I always managed to save before, but not now, it simply refuses to save. After an hour of googling the issue, I'm still empty handed.
So I download GameYob instead, transfer it to my R4 card and to my surprise when I open up my Pokemon Red rom, it say's ''New game'' instead of ''continue''. I try other roms and all other save files are there, but not to Pokemon Red. I plug my R4 card into my PC and sure enough, the .sav file to Pokemon Red is there, no problem. I plug it into my 3DS again and try to open it up with LameBoy but it's still gone. I try GameYob again, that now all of the sudden refuses to open at all, simply ''Loading..''
I plug the R4 (SD) card into my PC again and open up the Pokemon Red rom directly from the R4 card to a GBC emulator on PC, still ''new game''... no ''continue''. I try all other roms with their respective .sav files and they all still work.
I seriously spent 3 days exploring every corner of Pokemon Red, a game I haven't played for 15 years, only to have it kick me in the balls halfway through.
1. How can I get my .sav file to work again, 2. How can I play it on my R4 card without it freezing when saving, and lastly 3. What did I do wrong in the first place to create this mess?
