Pokemon black 2 randomizer viewing pokemon crashes the game #1611

Closed Spas120 closed 1 year ago

Spas120 commented 1 year ago

Pokemon black 2 crashes when ever viewing the pokemon on a randomizer but it works on an emulator like melonDS so nds bootstrap seems to be the problem. I should be able to view the pokemon ut all it does is crash. all i did was get my starter and tried to view it but it ends up crashing instead. also I'm using nds bootstrap v0.73.1 on a 2ds and loading a game from the sd card and using twilight menu release v26.0.1

It crashes because of an AP measure taking place. AP is not (and will not be) patched out for randomized ROMs, so you'll need to manually AP-patch the clean ROM using DS-Scene ROM Tool before randomizing it.

but wouldn't it do the same thing on melonDS if that was the case tho?

No, because melonDS properly emulates the game card slot in a way that bypasses AP measures like on the original game card. The AP measure works by checking how the game card can be read. If it detects either a flashcard or no game card (which is always the case on nds-bootstrap, as Slot-1 is disabled), then the AP measure takes effect (in this case, crashing when viewing the Pokemon summary).

Oh ok, thank you
