[Pokémon Heart Gold/Soul Silver] Emulation Help Thread

Status
Not open for further replies.
I recently obtained an EDGE card but I am still unsure if I want to upload Pokemon Soul Silver onto it because Im afraid it will mess up the card itself(I just got it so excuse my bluntness.) If I do, will I have to do every single step taken to avoid freezing on the emulator or will the card take care of it for me?

Damn it! I can't play the roms, even with Pokemon League Champion patches.
Guys, you know what? Let's just wait for the Pokemon HG/SS english roms.
They can't have any crashes and freezes.

But to confort you guys, i have a Soul Silver rom that never freezes, that never crashes, and most of it is in english.

And I have completed the game. Now i'm doing all the events.

But there is more. My rom can go to Wi-Fi battle!!!!!! Don't ask me how i did that because i just clicked on every keys of the keyboard and then that happened.

The only thing i can do is trading pokemon.

And if i try to upload the rom it says that the file is too big to upload.

Thanks for listening and PLEASE guys STOP ARGUING.
(Sorry if i have bad grammar.)

If you're going to utterly lie, atleast try to sound intelligent. Oh, and by the way, uploading ROMs to this forum is against the rules. Not to mention the English ROM, when it's available, will probably have more pirate checks, so it will freeze more often then the Japanese ones do now. I'd like to know what you base your logic on. Just because it's in English, it "can't have any crashes and freezes"?

Anyway, with the ROM image crashing thing, I just went "what the heck," and decided to convert my savefile and use the HGSS PokeSav on it to level up my Pokemon a bit. I figured, if it always crashes, what's the problem in poking around a bit? When I converted it back to No$GBA's save format, it loaded back up. So I would try either converting the savefile to something else and back, or converting, editing something stupid and unneeded if you're against cheating, and converting back. It worked for me.
 
Ok, I'm frustrated with my rom.
Everytime I open it with NO$GBA, it says some Japanese things which I don't understand. HELP!

Well, considering it's a Japanese rom... Seriously.
When you boot up and it gives you three japanese options on the emulated touch screen, choose the bottom one.
That will get you on your way to beginning your Japanese HG/SS Adventure.
 
But i went to wi-fi battle only once and then it crashed.

And by the way the crashes and freezes are back.
 
There is clearly an error with the rom itself.
Download a fresh one from somewhere(Don't ask me where, Google is your friend)
and try again.

It may also be the emulator you're using.
What version of No$Gba are you using? 2.6 or 2.6a?
Or do you use a lower version?
 
USE THIS CHEAT AND SET IT TO RAW
020DD9E4 E1A00000
020D3820 E1A00000
THEN RESET IT IT SHOULD WORK AND THE BLACK SCREEN WOULD BE GONE
AND THE SAVE GAME ISSUE I CANT HELP I THINK U SHUD WAIT TILL MARCH - APRIL FOR IT
I MEAN ENGLISH VERSION RELEASE DATE IS MARCH 14
 
Hey guys just wanted to say nice work on the patches and stuff. I been playing soul silver on no$gba 2.6a. I'm after the 3rd gym and I try to save in the northen part of goldenrod where the you either go to the pokethlon dome or the the national park and i try to save after this points in the game and it keeps crashing when I try to save, I get the NO$GBA FATAL rom image has crashed. I've tried saving in different places outside the dome in it, different parts of the national park and violet city and it still crashes right after it finishes saving :( I'm using Magnius's Pokemon Soul Silver Translation v4

As far as Emulating goes, I've had a lot of luck with No$Zoomer.

Unpack it into the same directory as No$GBA, and just run No$Zoomer.

When I used it in conjunction with the codes:

020DD9E4 E1A00000
020D3820 E1A00000

I found it to be fully playable, with no save issues.

Hope this helps,

P.S. This MUST be used with No$GBA 2.6a... Apparently, it won't really provide any benefits if used with a lower version (Though I haven't tested this).

Just go here everyone:
Soul silver: [had to remove this from the quote cause I don't have enough posts to post links]
Heart gold: [see above]
I didnt make it btw!
these downloads translate the text and stop the freezing (it stops all random freezing aswell)!
also it should run at top speed including flash carts!
Click to expand...

What if the ROM I've been using already has a patch? Should I just download a new, unpatched one? If I do, do I rename the ROM to whatever my save file name was? Also, will the patch put the ROM in english? Also, whether or not I have to add an english patch after this patch, won't it mess the game up, since it'll be slightly different than the one I had? Sorry I'm asking so many questions, I just want to be clear with this whole process.
 
I'm having the problem where the rom image crashes when I try to save after beating Whitney on SoulSilver. I've tried multiple patches and no$zoomer but nothing's helped. Any fix for this yet?
 
Well looks like people will have to wait for the english rom or for the people with a DS themselves can buy it next month when it hits the stores.. But it'd be nice to know where the working english patches are.
 
I need a patch that would make the KOREAN HGSS work under NO$GBA.

The problem with Korean versions is exactly the same as with Japanese - after Oak Intro the screen blacks out and you can hear muted New Bark Music. I've tried patching it with the same patch that I used for Japanese version but it didn't work.

I really need patch for KOREAN versions.

And yes, I have the most recent NO$GBA version.
 
I need help.
I cant get a patched rom at all after using DeltaGUI.
I do everything it says in the read me and nothing happens.
I don't get another file with 124-125 mb with patched at the end of the name?
Help?

Edit: Forget it, I download a prrepatched one.

Use the Pokemon Heart Gold or Pokemon Soul Silver Roms from the "HG/SS ORIGINAL Rom" folder to do the following:

STEP 1 - Patch Original Rom with the "No-Freeze RUDOLPH PATCH".

STEP 2 - [Optional - ONLY if you want the menus, Pokemon, attacks, etc. in English]
Patch with the ENGLISH PATCH

(I use KAZOWAR's english patch v6)

STEP 3 - Patch with the CHEAT PATCH.
[It patches the No-Black Screen AR cheat into the game to stop the Black Screen.]

sTEP 4 - Use the ROM DECRYPTER.

STEP 5 - Go into No$GBA's Emulator Settings and make sure the Reset/Startup Entrypoint is set to "GBA BIOS (Nintendo Logo)" before playing.

--------------
As it happens, I think I'm not allowed to post the links. These are easily found on the Internet, do a Google search. If you become tired of enabling DS cheats manually every time you start up No$GBA download an auto trainer called DSATM. It can patch a rom PERMANENTLY with an anti-black screen code, like this one:

020DD9E4 E1A00000
020D3820 E1A00000

Patches? Rudolph's anti freeze is the best. Follow the instructions above for the best result.

Save often and exit when you do. No$GBA 2.6a only writes SAVs when you exit the emulator. ROM running slow?

Set the EMULATION SPEED in options to Unlimited MHZ disaster 50% NDS catridge backup to Auto. Put Sound Output to DIGITAL MONO and Sample rate to LOW.

Can't help those with DESMUME. The best you can do with this is set the FRAMERATE up higher. Speed up codes for NO$GBA 2.6a (DOES NOT WORK WITH DESMUME):

HOW TO FIX THE INTRO UP
Experiencing Black-Screen? This is because you haven't ENCRYPTED your ROM yet

HAVING PROBLEMS FINDING THINGS I'VE MENTIONED?
I downloaded a compilation of all the aforementioned programs from EVILCLOWNBOBO. *hint hint*

Lol, shouldn't be anymore emulation problems now ^_^
