Mother 3 deletes save file #137

Closed epicwappy20 closed 9 months ago

epicwappy20 commented 9 months ago

The fan translation of mother 3 was unable to save properly, and the .sav is for a chapter 2 save, even though i made it to chapter 4

Use a clean, verified ROM together with the patch file. A prepatched ROM will cause a fallback to inaccurate save type detection.

epicwappy20 commented 9 months ago

Do I put the patch file in the same directory as the ROM, or am I just supposed to patch the rom.

profi200 commented 9 months ago

Same directory as the ROM and same name (file extension differs).

epicwappy20 commented 9 months ago

Same directory as the ROM and same name (file extension differs).

I put the UPS in the same directory and it loaded the unpatched version

epicwappy20 commented 9 months ago

The patch is only available in UPS format

epicwappy20 commented 9 months ago

the files are: Mother3.gba(verified checksum) Mother3.sav, and Mother3.ups

epicwappy20 commented 9 months ago

when booting the game in MGBA the patch loads

Looks like I just needed to update open_agb_firm
