Hacking R4DS + 3in1 won't save

[scoozer]

Nobody?

I really want to start my GBA Sessions with Zelda... so I have to choose which way I use, the Rudolphs Tool or NDSTation... but NDStation dont work right now...

Since there's already a thread, I guess I should ask here. So can anyone explain how the NOR saves work ? Should I always backup my save if I'm going to change the game on NOR?

I have a Counterquestion for you... why do you use NOR if PSRAM works great on all games? I played Zelda von PSRAM with Rudolph... then I only play another Game... Metroid.. then another Drill Dozer... and every time my saves were recognized...

so why ever use nor ?

Heh, because I only have one GBA game and I play that very often so I just want to boot it up real quick, that's why I loaded it on NOR. [Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga the game is btw]

Hi, i have the same problem! I have received 3in1saturday and today it don't recognize the saves... :S

 

[JacobReaper]

so you have a "SAVE" folder?

 

[ooyamaneko]

Yes, I have all configured correctly and with the EZ4 Client patch save. The problem is the same, because the 3in1 run very well at the start and the saves appeared in SRAM in both modes (PSRAM and NOR). But now... don't appeared... The curious thing is the save in NOR mode when I turn off the NDS keeps in SRAM, because when I turn on the DS I can continue the game, but the program don't show it and says that Save don't exist if I try to do something (backup or restore).

PS: Sorry for my English

 

[JacobReaper]

it really should say can't back up the save though.. but when you restart your game and theres no save, than something else it wrong.. it isnt the battery for sure though..

 

[ooyamaneko]

Thanks. I will try to reinstall all again tomorrow... I hope that it isn't a battery problem!

--- EDIT ---

I HAVE THE SOLUTION!!! It wasn't a battery problem.

I couldn't wait and I tried to reinstall the tools, erase NOR and rewrite the game. Now all is running well, I hope that this go for long time...

Thanks to all users

PSRam apparently doesnt work on the 3rd gen pokémon games and other that blabber about 1M stuff. It means its save file needs to be 1 MB and the only way that worked is by booting with NOR.

Thanks for the info on save patching and GBATA, guys. Seems my PSRAM saving issues were caused by needlessly patching certain ROMS with the EZ4 client. All is working well now.
