how do i keep a saved game in No$gba?

i cant find a way to save my game and keep that saved data on No$gba.
Can i even save my game on No$gba?

You can. You save the game just like you would if playing the actual game. Then you load the game and load your saved game the same way if you were loading a saved game with the actual game.If you are getting errors during the save, then you need to upgrade to NO$GBA 2.6a or change your NDS Backup type in the settings until it works.All that's covered in the Common Issues thread:

yea i did that but when i came back to the game after closing and reopening No$gba it was gone

What game?And are you saving in game, or trying to use the "Save States" in the no$GBA menus?

PMD2 i had that game for the DS but it broke so i downloaded it off this site and i am playing it with No$gba.
the game came to a save point so i saved, exited No$gba, then today i opened No$gba and played the game but my save was gone and i had to start a new game

What version of No$GBA are you using? (Help -> About menu)

2.6a

Did you rename the ROM file by any chance?Open the "BATTERY" folder and see if there is a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2 .sav file It has to be the same exact name (only .sav instead of .nds) as the ROM file.

nope nothing in there

Then it didn't create the save file.Make sure your settings is set to "Auto".

which thing do you want to say auto?
Nds-cartrige Backup Media?

yes

that is on auto

Try to save in game again, and see if it works.

okay, i've been trying to do that but i keep getting crap pokemon

What does that have to do with saving games?

nothing i just want a good pokemon just in case it saves

well, it saved, i reset it and the data was still there, BUT when i close No$gba, will i loose my data again?

Only one way to find out.

okay ill see
