Game Freezes/Never Loads When Entering Entree forest #54

Open Nicholas456 opened 2 months ago

Nicholas456 commented 2 months ago

I used entralinked to add 10 dittos to the forest, and gave myself 20 rare candies. After waking up my pokemon I went into the forest and the game would either freeze or never load Any idea why this may have occured or how to fix it?

That is not normal. Have you messed with a save editor in the past? It might be worth inspecting your save file.

Nicholas456 commented 2 months ago

I have looked at the save in PkHex but it does not let me see the data for what's currently in the Entree Forest. Other than that I have not looked into any save editors. Do you have any suggestions for save editors?

kuroppoi commented 2 months ago

Exporting the save file with PKHeX might fix the save file if there are any problems with it, but I'm not entirely sure. In any case, I don't think simply using Game Sync can cause this problem. Are you playing on cartridge? Try using your save on an emulator and see if the crash happens there as well. Could be a hardware issue.

I am playing on cartridge, and unfortunately exporting from PKHeX didn't seem to fix the issue. I ran the save file on an emulator and went into the forest successfully, but what I saw made absouletly no sense Screenshot (59)

Looks like your Entree Forest is filled with garbage. I don't know what could cause this aside from save editing or cheating. What happens if you try to start an encounter?

Nicholas456 commented 2 months ago

When I talk to any of these NPCs the game just crashes. As for save editing/cheating, the only changes I made via PKHeX was to add mystery gift cards to my game. I used Entralinked in between adding those and didn't encounter this issue so I am not certain if that is the cause. Do you know of a way to clear the garbage from Entree Forest?

kuroppoi commented 2 months ago

I don't know how to clear it, but this save editor might be helpful.

Nicholas456 commented 2 months ago

Using that tool alongside an older save with a clean forest I was able to inject a clean forest into the corrupt save and when I entered the forest, it was empty. I don't know if this will work on my cartridge, but I will give it a try
