Makes sense... I'll check. How do I look for the "in-game save data"? Because in the game, my save disappeared... Should I check the folders then? :geek:

Looks like the save states are fine but the save was too early in the game. With regards to the in game save, the rune factory 3 save file is in the folders. That means it never got deleted but it doesn't show up in the game...

check for the size. is should be 64 kb. if not then its corrupted. if it is 64kb and cant be recognized, please uupload it for testing. oh, just a precaution. make sure that the name of the game and save are the same. i.e. <gamename>.nds and <gamename>.dsv
it may be the reason why your ingame isnt recognized.

Since the latest update of the app I have not been able to open my Harvest Moon: The Tale of Two Towns save. When I touch the save to load or I load last save, I am always returned to the DraStic homescreen. Please help! :cry:

Are you able to load from an in-game save instead? And can you upload the savestate somewhere?

im thinking that either the save had been corrupted or that you have used a different bios since yor last update. i tested my old saves and its working.

just to make sure, you didnt use any cheats right?

also, does a message that says 'different bios' or something shows on your screen?

if not, pleas eupload it and ill check it.

Has anyone gotten the current version of the ROM hack 'New Super Mario Bros. 3' (3.0) working with DraStic?

(patch for a clean (U) copy of NSMB is at: http://filetrip.net/nds-downloads/rom-h ... 31953.html )


I see there's an entry for the 1.0 version in the game_database.xml, and I've edited different values in that (to match the CRC32 of the resulting 3.0 rom) and tried changing the save entry to all other sizes/types, and I still always get the NSMB ingame error message on startup of 'Could not erase data. Turn the power off and reinsert the Game Card' (I can't tell if it's even recognizing that it should use those values for the ROM)

it may just be me but it did say demo so why apply it on a full version?
