WTF? RIN is crapping out on me TOO!?

[GrandTheftAutoJunkie]

When I start Pokemon Red now, it only has the option to "Start new game" when I clearly have the Gamesave in the GameSave file. Help?

[MexicanSnake]

maybe the rin corrupted the GameSave file....

[GrandTheftAutoJunkie]

Read my post. I already know it's there. That's weird. It's a sort of Rar file. I unzipped it into the file with the game save inside but didn't work.

[MexicanSnake]

sorry, try to reinstall the rin....

[GrandTheftAutoJunkie]

Ok. Of course, I'll backup the GameSave and Rom first. If it still doesn't work, I'll edit this post.

[MexicanSnake]

also the rom can have the problem...

[GrandTheftAutoJunkie]

I replaced the Rom and RIN and it STILL has the problem. If I can get out of this without losing all my progress, I'm using the "State save" from now on. PLEASE HELP!

Uh.. just use state save.. that's what I use. Most likely your SAV file is corrupted, run a CHKDSK to remove it. And load your state, then save game and reset.

The only problem I find with homer's rin is the sound. I converted rin to 1.5 via seipsptools and sound doesn't work .

Yea, just use statesave with hotkeys, its faster and better.

[GrandTheftAutoJunkie]

Then I have to start over from the beginning.

Then I have to start over from the beginning.

Oh.. I thought you had a back-up save state.. oh well. No solution for this (except for chkdsk to remove the corrupted file..). Pokemon Crystal SAV file also crapped out on me.. (corrupted) so eeee yea..

I think it happens when you uh.. play the game and turn it off while saving.. I do not know.

Don't use homers RIN.

Use the last version before he took over.It works perfectly.

[GrandTheftAutoJunkie]

Link, please?

[uber0ne]

let google or dl.qj.net be your friend ;)

[Delirium Trigger]

Do you use Devhook? That's probably it, Devhook corrupted the data.

[GrandTheftAutoJunkie]

Uh, no. I don't keep a 1.5 dump in my memory stick. When I play the emulator, I'm at 1.5, its natural settings.

I use Homers Rin too and this has happened to me before too. What I do is, when I save my game (Not a save state, a game save), I'll go and load up another rom and when that is loaded I'll just exit it via the menu. It hasn't happened to me since. I also do the same thing with the SNES emulator too.

And for the sound problem. I just put it in sleep mode and wake it back up again.

The only fix I can't find for it is to play music in IrShell and play Homers Rin at the same time. The menu goes all buggy and what-not. No biggy though, I like the ingame music to pokemon anyway. *Thinks about the old days.* Oh yeah...

[GrandTheftAutoJunkie]

I still enjoy playing the game.
