How to fix corrupt pokemon saves (HG / SS)

When I tried to convert it it always said it failed.

insanecrazy07Speaking of which, couldn't you just take your "corrupted" save file and run it through the converter to see if it corrects the issue?

never thought of that although i dont think itl work, but someone could try :)

could you upload your sav to megaupload and post the link here?

Theres one problem with that...The computer that has the sav file is right now in the IT shop getting fixed, and I don't have the sav file on my Moms computer, so I have to wait for my comp to get fixed. I might be able to find it though.http://www.mediafire.com/?rmztrxidm4jSorry but its Mediafire, if you want megaupload I can post it there too. Btw. I am using the first V3 of Rykins patched Japanese Heart Gold game, not the english one.

That might be part of your problem if nothing else.
It's the only thing that you're doing that we're not (besides you having to use No$) since we all use the English one.

i have looked through you sav file and i must say it is very weird. Did you mess around with pokesav to cheat before. because heres your statsGame time: 24931 hr 115 min 104 sec
Money: 1296126547
Party members: 101
Year started: 2000
Items: has numbers for items and is in the thousands for quantities
pokemon: are non readableedityou have no id or ssid

ASuch, what program did you use to save your file? No$GBA? Or is this not the raw format from No$?

I used No$GBA to use it, yes. What might affect it though is that I converted it to VBA so I could Pokesav it, but I tried to click revert on Pokesav but that didn't help, so yeah.

And there you have it. Actually, if you tell No$GBA to save the files as FLASH 512 KB, you can use that directly with Pokesav...

How would I do that?

Replying to #49

it under the options file. just make sure that you save it as it doesn't save your options automatically

When I use Pokesav how come some names are in red and some green and some blue? I have like 4 reds.

blue: male
red: female
green:neuter

Oh... and I thought something was wrong.

did it ever work for you?

Cheese, can you like not double-post or bump your topics with just the word bump?
It's only been two days since your last post. There's no explicitly defined time span, but I'd say at least a week is acceptable.We have rules concerning bumping topics. Go read them.

fair enough its just. it seems nowadays not many people know how to "search" so im trying to keep it at the top of the forums. But again i see your point so i shall only post if necessary
