Talk:Berry glitch: Difference between revisions

:::: I think I commented on the "Emulator that supplies PC Clock as RTC value"-problem on furlock's forest. As this strongly refers to using emulators for playing the games, I'm not sure whether it should be included on the glitch page (there are other pages containing the word "emulator" or "VBA"). I don't think that VBA manipulates the savegame in other ways than an original GBA (as in "should not alter the game-started-flags") but simply causes high numbers to be written to the "last time saved". So I would expect that changing the "last time saved"-field in the savegame should fix this - but I have not looked into this. To be honest: I agree with furlock that writing to the RTC seems cleaner than patching the savegame. [[User:TCCPhreak|TCCPhreak]] ([[User talk:TCCPhreak|talk]]) 15:23, 15 September 2014 (UTC)

::::: I have not managed to make *any* game work again with just editing the 'last save' value (and other time values) in the save file, not even the untouched ones, sadly. My game with a VBA-influenced save file, however, does not work even when I change the actual RTC of the cartridge, it’s just messed up. Also, when I edit time values in the save file of that game, e.g. the in-game time (that you set on your clock in your room), what I enter and what is actually displayed by the game are two completely different times. So while I am not willing yet to rule out the possibility that doing things with the save file alone (without touching the RTC) might make a game work again (although I haven't been able to do so so far; and I've tried quite a lot), I can say that a VBA-saved game doesn't even work again after an RTC-fix. I just thought mentioning that might be useful for people in similar situations, lest they try everything and get disappointed because they at one point saved via VBA with its RTC on. But I'm also just glad that it got mentioned at least here now, that's sometimes enough already for people who look for every bit of info in these situations … ^^ [[User:Peterpansexuell|Peterpansexuell]] ([[User talk:Peterpansexuell|talk]]) 17:14, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
