Export Savegame from DraStic to DeSuME

Post by worsty » Thu Aug 29, 2013 1:27 pm

Hi,
how can I export my savegames or savestates from DraStic to DeSuME?
I tried to copy the .dsv file from the DraStic /battery folder to the DeSuME /battery folder, but the game (Pokemon Black 2) told me, that the savefile was deleted. :(

I have the same problem. I tried looking at the DeSuME community forums but they are next to non existent on the official site.

I converted a no$gba .sav (raw) to DraStic dsv by using a DS savetype converter. Maybe you could do it in reverse

don't convert anything!
If drastic/desmume can't load it, then it's either a damaged/wrong-patched rom or a screwed version of desmume.
I am able to save ingame and load ingame on Black/White 1/2 from and to drastic, it works flawless.

i solved the problem :D
after my savegame chrashed after the pokemon league, i searched for a solving of the problem and it solves also the export problem to DeSuME:
load poke generator, load your .dsv and just save it again.
Now you can use your savegame in DeSuME.

That's the one I have...I was wondering why I had Pokegen on my laptop.

Worked perfectly. Thanks for posting. Now I don't have to burn through my phone battery while at home.

How does this work, exactly?

1- You grab the .dsv from the folder backup in Drastic.
2- You put it in your computer.
3- You open the .dsv with pokegenerator and you save the file as .sav (this doesn't work.. an exception occurs, so I save as .dsv again).
(till here, all is well)
4- You go to DeSmuME and open the game, and then you choose "Load State from..." and you choose the .sav.
5- Then when the game starts, I only have "New Game", and no char built.

Am I doing something wrong?
