"Load" vs. "Open"

Zaxbeez · October 13th, 2009

I've been using in game saves for Pokemon Leaf Green for (According to the game) about 40 hours now. I was trying to get Articuno and I saved right before, but I accidentally hit "File" -> "Load" Instead of "Open" and it took me to the game I wrote over (Using In Game Saves) that was way back at the beginning.
I got the game from a kid at school by copying the VBA Emulator from his Flash Drive to mine, then to my comp. So he must've saved using the Emulator, and I accidentally loaded that.
Can I get back to my game? Please? For the love of God, please?

Yeah, just open the game and load your last save game ingame.

So... did you save after you first accidentally loaded his save game?

Nope. I knew enough to NOT do that.

masta.g.86 · October 13th, 2009

OK, so when you "load ingame" are you going to File > Load or are you loading your game from the title menu?

When you were saving, how exactly were you saving?

To save in the game, I hit "Start" then "Save." Just like if it was on a real Gameboy.

And to load I'd click "File" > "Open" and then the title would pop up and I'd click "Load Game" using my designated "A" button.

Is File > Load > AutoLoad turned on?

Yes, should it be off?

masta.g.86 · October 13th, 2009

Yes since you are using ingame saving instead.

Ok, it's off. What now?

You know, I have Skype and Yahoo. Could we use that instead? It's quicker...

Sorry. I don't have Skype.

Have you tried loading your old save game after turning off AutoLoad yet?

Yes, it loaded the messed up one. I didn't save it, so I don't know why it's not working.

masta.g.86 · October 13th, 2009

Hmmm... Well, I'm out of ideas.

I guess you might want to wait for a reply from somebody else who is a bit more familiar with VBA and GBA emulation in general. Check back in like 4 - 6 hours.

I'm confused. Can anyone help me or not?

**SCHUMI_4EVER** · October 14th, 2009

O now I see what Squall was talking about. I had missed it earlier.

I am afraid getting a game by copying it from some Kid at school is not a legal means of getting the game and thus you will receive no support here according to the Emuforums Rules and I will now lock this thread.
