Cannot save state at all.

Post by Duskye » Mon Aug 26, 2013 9:10 pm

I recently updated my custom rom on my Galaxy Tab 2 and installed the newest DraStic. The games booted up fine, but I found that I couldn't quick save or regular save state anymore. I reinstalled my previous rom thinking maybe it was the new rom I've flashed, but I've gotten the same problem.

I've tried this on both Hotel Dusk and LOZ PH, same problems, I have also tried reverting back to a previous version, same problem.

EDIT: I also checked the backup folder and both save states are in tact their, I just can't load them.

Regular saving is working just fine though (Saving in game)

The backup folder is where in-game saves are saved, the savestates folder is where you want to look.

Ah, in that case then yes they are being created as far I can see, I just can't load them.

I would attempt to un-install and save all your saves and savestates, then delete the Drastic folder. Then install Drastic again and throw everything back, then try loading them. I'm not sure what could be causing this specifically as I don't really have enough information to follow with.

Still not able to load the states. I have also tried just removing the wholer folder and Drastic making a new one. Savew create, but still do not load.

If you need any specific information, just ask.

Well if you're having trouble loading them, did the problem happen after updating recently? After Drastic stopped requiring your own Bios files, savestates stopped working. Use the search feature to find people in the same boat as you, it's not an uncommon problem.

It happened after I updated drastic from 2.13 to2.14, but I found a workaround for the moment: If I save state, exit a then continue the game, it will load and save state as usual. It looks like when I try loading one when I load a new game, it doesn't work.
