Hi, I'm not entirely sure if this goes here but I have a question about DeSmuME v0.9.10; I tried using Action Replay codes with it for Pokemon Black but none of them worked (for reference it was Wild Pokemon Modifier and 100% Catch Rate). Any ideas as to why? Should I be using an older version of the emulator? (some other threads in other places I checked said 9.10 isn't very good?)

any help?

Well the .gba file is the rom so obviously it should open in the emulator. The .sav file is your saved file. This appears when you save the game in-game. However I'm not familiar with .sta. Maybe it's a save state. But what you should do is transfer the files to your pc which is what you've probably done. Then you take your rom or the .gba file and rename it so it has the same name as the corresponding .sav file. And then just play it on an emulator. The emulator should bring up your saved filed in the continue screen.

Do mobile emulators run hacks well? I've been considering downloading one for my smartphone to play the upcoming PRPB. It's a Galaxy S4, so hardware power isn't a problem.

Yes they run pretty well.. MyBoy or Gameboid (i prefer this one) run all games very well.


Also, on topic :

Is there ever any successful method to fight/trade online using ANY emulator for GBA games?

Never heard of a way, which is something that could be looked into since there are emulators like Mupen64k which support online play while the systems they emulate didn't.

There must be.
I mean.. VBA is compatible with Hamachi, so.. people should try.
I did one with TLOZ Four Swords and it runs very slow, but, for example i never tried with Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire, and those ROMs runs pretty much better than FR/LG/E (Just using the turbo in those games you can see it)

Because I had few problems running DeSmuME on my 6-year-old PC, I expected the same great performance on the new PC I got for the holidays. Unfortunately, this machine doesn't seem to "like" either the new version of DeSmuME or the one I'd played with before. Running it in compatibility mode with WinXP/SP3 doesn't help; neither does switching from 32-bit to 64-bit versions of the program. (My new computer is running 64-bit Windows 8.1 with 12 GB of RAM, plus graphics very similar to the old one's. It passed a complete virus and malware scan last night; so I can't understand why DeSmuME keeps hogging 90+% of the CPU and freezes/crashes.) Any other Windows 8 users out there who can help?

EDIT: I don't know what the multi-emulator programs do to fix it; but somehow WinDS Pro and Emulator X can run DeSmuME correctly from inside the bundling app. Try to run it as a stand-alone app, though, and all Hades breaks loose. >:)

Is there a reliable tool for converting DeSmuME .dsv files to .sav format? The only one I could find listed on Google was on a site that my antivirus program blocked as unsafe... never a good sign. o_O PokeGen used to be a decent workaround on my old PC; but it crashes when I try to save the (otherwise unchanged) .dsv file as an .sav. (The error message before that crash reads "Unable to create filename.sav.bak" whether an earlier backup exists or not.) If any of you could please show me a solution, I'd be very grateful.

I don't know why you did multipost, but it seems you can't.
You can only trade from VBA to another VBA, and from Myboy to another Myboy..

[Cross-posted to another fan site; please accept my apology if you've seen this message twice!]


I'm playing the Platinum game through an emulator program (DeSmuME 0.98) because I don't own any handheld devices. Although the program generally performs well, it's frustrating to know that I'll never be able to use or enter Pal Park in-game; simulating a transfer from Gen3 is impossible because no emulator can simulate a GBA and an NDS running at the same time. :-(

If I could buy (or even borrow) two real handhelds, I would transfer my Gen3 Pokémon that way. Since I can't, though... is there an editor which could simulate the Pal Park transfer and have Platinum acknowledge the results? If software like that exists for Windows, I'd be happy to give it a shot.

I haven't tried it yet, since I don't have the ROMs and I certainly wouldn't be far enough in the game for the Pal Park, but - at least in DeSmuME 0.9.9 - you can go to Config -> Slot 2 (GBA slot) and follow the instructions there (that is, give it the directory of your GBA ROM and have the .sav file in the same folder).

For some reason whenever I try to open a patched rom (using lunarIps) using VBA I just get a gray screen. Any help?

How does it work?
 
First of all, I apologize if I have posted this in the wrong forum section, I am new here so I am still getting down what all of the different sections mean. But besides that point, I am curious of how this "Powersave" for Pokemon X works.

Now, I am familiar with hacking devices for I have used action replay for my older Pokemon games. What I am confused about is this IV business. I'll just state right here and right now that I have tried the "true" way, but with NO success, and A LOT of frustration. So I was curious if I modified my pokemon's IVS with this, would they STAY PERFECT?! For when I breed, all of the IVS start of from 6, then as the pokemon levels up nearly ALL of them change except for TWO, and I AM NOT in the mood to dedicate six hours of my life to perfect this through this confusing breeding.... I certainly hope so, for this could be a life saver! Of course, I would only use it in battle mansion and NEVER against any online players. Thanks for the time and answers.

Randomizer
 
I sincerely do not know if this is the right place to post, if not please move the topic to where it should be originally posted. Thank you.

Alright, it's been quite a while that I've been watching Randomized Nuzlocke LP's in YouTube and thought to myself "Hey, why don't you try it out as well?". So, I searched and found the randomizer, downloaded it along with the ROMs that I would like to play. But there has been a problem. Upon decompression I realised that my program would also unrar the file that triggers the Randomizer program to launch (like unraring a .exe file for applications, but I cannot remember the file type right now).

So I thought I would ask for help here. Can somebody help me and Randomize a Emerald and FireRed rom for me? I've been trying for days now and had no luck neither in randomizing a rom for myself neither finding a already randomized rom. Thanks a lot!

Also, I saw a LP with Pokemon ΩRαS being randomized (can't recall the YouTuber's name right now), can someone tell me if it is possible to do that for my game as well (if it is illegal ignore that last one).

Thank you guys, much appreciated!

I'll move this over to the ROM Hacking forums, where there's a better chance that someone who can answer properly will see this :) good luck!
