Save chrome os #77

Open florentwindels opened 1 year ago

florentwindels commented 1 year ago

Hello, I find your site amazing.
I come to you because I can not save the progress of the game to reload it afterwards, could you explain to me exactly how to do it for info I use your site on Chrome OS good to you good evening

The emulators save SRAM (the game's Save RAM) automatically every five minutes into your browser storage, and you can save manually with Saves > Save game. Save the game within the game, and save manually. As long as you don't clear your browser storage, your save will work the next time you load the game. If needed (ie: transferring saves to another computer/instance), you can save your SRAM to a file to use elsewhere via Saves > Recover Saves.

wow you are faster than chatGPT, lol, I tried to save by making saves myself with the SRAM but when I try to open it in a new page, I load the rom then I import the sram but at that moment I have to put the rom back again and my game was not saved, I don't know if I was compressible

foxsouns commented 1 year ago

Your SRAM and your ROM have to share names, excluding the file extension. (for example, you have a game Example Game.sfc, your SRAM must be called Example Game.srm.)

I will test

florentwindels commented 1 year ago

I may be stupid but it doesn't work... I do exactly like this: I launch your emulator, I choose MGBA, I launch my rom pokemon emerad version, I crack on save, I crack on import sram, I validate reloading now, I have to restart the rom, end. but when I go in game I have to play a new game I can't continue

I think I know why I did not find the key for in pokemon open the menu to access my pokenav for example

you know which one it is

foxsouns commented 1 year ago

And you're sure this SRAM file has valid data on it?

florentwindels commented 1 year ago

I got this sram by doing save / export save so it's up to you to tell me if this method is the right one but how do you open the pokenav in pokemon emerald

foxsouns commented 1 year ago

Try your local search engine. Apparently, you need to beat the first gym.

florentwindels commented 1 year ago

no I already had the fight and I won but on the other hand I can't find how to open the bag, the pokenav,...

florentwindels commented 1 year ago

you are so smart that it was too easy so I couldn't find it, finally I managed to save the game a big thank you, tell me would it be possible to work for you?

foxsouns commented 1 year ago

What, the PokeNav? Does this help?

The main protagonist obtains the PokéNav after obtaining his/her first gym badge and taking back the Devon Goods that one of the Team Magma/Team Aqua members have stolen.

florentwindels commented 1 year ago

don't worry it works i'm just stupid

florentwindels commented 1 year ago

do you plan to make it a mobile application?

foxsouns commented 1 year ago

It's planned, but not any time soon.

Also, don't forget that you can use save states.
