Gaming > Save corruption in Pokemon Diamond. Help vets!

yes i use flash 2mbit.. Also idont use an emulator either. if you send me your corrupted save i will try to fix it for you..

No, Pokémon DP uses Flash 4Mbit. 2Mbit just works fine though since the save is stored twice, to prevent any corruption.

By the way, try selecting Flash 2Mbit but manually change the size of the *.sav to 512KB. My Supercard SD actually saved to all 4Mbit then, dunno if it works for your flashcard though.

hi, i'm new to the forums so greetings to every1. i was hoping if some1 could assist me with my save problem as well. i have my diamond save file on R4 and i've been playing without difficulty for a while, but 2day i got a similar error "the save file is erased due to damage or corruption". i would attempt to fix this with the methods suggested here but i don't know whether or how to convert my save file on R4 so i can fix it with pokemon save editor. if any1 has ideas or can fix my save file for me, that'd be awesome and much appreciated

I've lost my save file after doing this
when I try to play the game, the following message appears:

"The save file has been erased due to corruption or damage"

is there a way to recover my save file?

I'm using a supercard SD
when I replace my pokemon's game and save files with other new files
and the start the game, the same message appears, how is that possible?

Even when I use my old backed up save file, I get the same error message

If there is no way of recovering my corrupted file, I want to find a way to load the old one at least.

If you want to use a backed up save, you must run a different game BEFORE copying it over.
