Pokemon Black Reset Crash

ragingmunkyz · June 13th, 2012, 04:40

I realize these questions may have been answered somewhere in the forums, but in my searches I have not yet found a solution, so if the solutions were already posted, I do apologize.

I'm had been running Pokemon Black on No$gba for a while, but every 6 fights (EXACTLY) or every 6 or so area changes the game freezes, or if in a fight, there is no fight option. Frustrated with constantly reseting, and knowing I would eventually hit a point where this would prevent my finishing the game, I turned to the web for answers.

The only solution I was able to find for this was to dump the following 4 files from my DS into the no$gba root file: gba.rom, biosnds7.rom, biosnds9.rom, and firmware.bin. I did so, and then changed my the startup to BIOS. I encrypted the Pokemon Black Rom. Following those steps, (which I had been told would prevent the constant stalls and freezes) I have been able to start up no$gba from BIOS, and then select the Pokemon Black Rom. At this point, I reach the blue screen that says saves cannot be located or something like that. I had encountered this when starting without the BIOS, so I have all of the action replay codes to stop the crashes, blue screen and allow saves. The problem is that every time I reset the game to make those codes work, it now has a fatal error and says the rom image has crashed. This didn't happen when I wasn't starting from BIOS, the codes worked fine. I have tried every combination of settings I could think of, tried using the unencrypted Rom, even tried just reseting without turning on codes or anything, but I always get a crash, on every reset, no matter what.

If anyone has a solution to this problem, I would greatly appreciate it, because it is driving me absolutely insane that I have to choose between a frustrating game exerience and the inability to finish the game, or else no game at all. Thanks for sticking with the post through the wall of text, and thanks to whoever can give me a solution.

I've been gone a while (ha)

For starters go to this thread http://www.ngemu.com/forums/showthre...patch+ar+codes, you will be using the attached file from the first post to patch your rom dump.

Create a notepad file, and copy paste the following line in it exactly

Fix1:
52004EA0 E8BD01F0
02004EA0 EAFFF25C
E2001800 0000005C
E92D4008 E3A00000

28AAFF1F 037FBFE0
EAA01606 00000000
D0000000 00000000

***When the game starts, press "A", to get to the menu then select "mystery gift", now select "quit" (by pressing "A") to go back to the main menu, now when you press "A" again, to get to the main menu, you will see your saved game, the hack seems to kick in only after doing this step (you must do this to load your save, and save your game, so it must be done each time the game starts)

(what seems to help, right click the game screen from NO$ZOOMER, and select "save state" anywhere in game, just having one save state seems to ensure this process works 100% - edited after a few tests, if your having trouble getting your rom dump to work pm me, your rom dump should be about 256mb and 195mb after you patch it using the instructions above, depending on how you dump your game, there's nothing in this guide you can't do yourself though)***

Forgot to mention I patched my rom dump with the "Experience Patch", you can probably just google for more information............Here's my config options below, just copy/paste this into your NO$GBA.ini file (open it with notepad and paste

I'm also using No$Zoomer 2.3.0.2 to start NO$GBA 2.6a with EX0, EX1, EX2, EX3 and EX4 enabled.

Fix for Pokemon White, remember your patching the ar code into your rom to avoid having to press reset after entering the ar code each time you start the game (you will instead just back out from the menu like we describe above)
