I would think this would be common, or im just not getting it... I have a DS, supercard mini, newest firmware hacks, kernel on the supercard, and on my computer, and when i try to save in any gba game, it doesnt stay... the save is gone next time i go into the game...

Something i did in my supercard software for the comp, it no longer makes the .sci and .s?? files anymore... either way, with them, or without them, i have this issue... Plz help...

Also, the 2.63 software says it fixed bugs in animal crossing, but i still have the freezing problem...  Any help on that? Thx in advance to all help.

right click- prperties, enable saver + enable saver patch,

L+R+Select+A as far as i know but i may be wrong about te button combo

Make sure that you have "enable save," "enable restart," and enable real time save" checked in your patcher.  Then it will output all three files you're looking for.  When in game, first do your save normally, then press L+R+Sel+A.  Saving normally writes the save to the SRAM, and the button combo writes it to the SD/CF card.  If you don't do the button combo, your save will be gone 30 seconds or so after you shut off your GBA/DS.

L+R+Sel+B is for real time saving.

Devil: thank you for trying :)
Victor: You are my new hero.  I'm going right this moment to get riviera, minish cap, and tactics ogre :) ... And probably pokemon.

Should i hope for an answer to my other question in this thread, or start a new one?
