thanks a million in advance, to everyone

[VisualBoy Advance Save Problems]

ok, im a newbie here

 

happened to stumble upon this wonderful topic through another site

 

and i'd really hope that website you are creating will be up soon

 

it will definitely help the emulation community!

 

 

ok, here's my problem:

 

i get the usual message for my emerald game

"the save file is corrupted, the previous save file will be loaded"

and my leaf green:

"the 1mb circuit board...."

 

so for my emerald game:

so i basically have gotten to the elite 4

 

completed it and after the credits, the game said

 

"the save file has been deleted due to corruption"

 

ok, so my save file is deleted

 

but fortunately, i still have a save state of me outside Evergrande city

 

so of course im happy.

 

and i read all of your posts

 

saying that one has to delete his save file

 

but my save file has already been "so-called" deleted

 

but i still have that save state, which only saves the frame i was at, rite?

 

so can i put in ur .ini file and continue into the e4?

 

 

and also: i have found some strange files in my emerald folder

 

namely:'trm-pmeu.ips', and 'trm-pmeu.sa1'

(my emerald game is called 'trm-pmeu.gba', if u're wondering why it has that strange name)

 

what are they?

and, can they do anything to salvage the situation?

 

and my vba does not have a .ini file,

so do i have to create such a file?

and add in the extension .ini when i save that file?

 

and, if i see the 'Corrupt save' message on pkmn emerald

does that mean that my game cannot continue after elite 4?

_____________________

and i read that in this topic

 

the game changes itself to a 64k save just when u are saving during the hall of fame

 

so can i change it to a 128k just at that time so as to avoid the game deleting itself?

 

really need help...

 

and if all else fails, can someone send me a vba with that .ini file? my e-mail is er_yz94@yahoo.com or er_yz@hotmail.com

 

coz mine is rather old (version 1.4)

 

and my pokemon emerald is named 'trm-pmeu.gba', if that is needed for the construction of the .ini file.
