:scratch:

I see it has Fram for game saves but it's not saving. My other everdrives save just fine.

I've tried with Shining Force Gaiden Final Conflict, SF 2 sword of whatever, Defenders of Oasis and Ax Battler.

I've tried different roms:scratch::scratch::scratch:

I have 120 games for the GG. I wanted to play a translated game from one of my favorite series.

Add in the 40 or so Master System games and the Everdrive becomes handy.

I hear you man but I'm pretty picky when it comes to GG and MS, I can live with just emulation when it comes to titles I don't have that I wanna play but there isn't much to begin with. GG Columns all day!

Messed around with Kega and saved a couple SF games. Transferred the .sgm save flies, noticed I'm showing data files for DoO & Lunar that end .srm. Started a game and the .sgm files aren't recognized.

Damn!

Mine's packed up so I can't test... But the forums at krikzz's site are generally very responsive, either from power users or the man himself. Good luck.

I actually read a response of krikzz's on assembler but didn't understand. I think I did what he said.

Great off to be a noob only joining for info. Getting yelled at for not finding a hidden or buried thread:buttrock:

EDIT:
krikzz said:
You should use dummy file. Any file can be used as dummy file. size of dummy file should be not less than 32kbyte

How do I make a dummy file and set the size?

I'm sure that's basic to most but one of the .sgm files was 32kbyte.

Where's ninjainspandex when I need him?:lolz:

Very last thread in his GG forum, very last response. Dude links to the website he found with a method to set the size. And says how he set stuff up for it. Bingo!

I looked at that last night but the link to the method is dead.

I tried renaming the .sgm to .srm files and the game said the saves were corrupted. I couldn't save over them.

I created some dummy files with fsutil. Wasn't sure what file extension to give it. Tried .srm no luck.
