Red screen bug after hacking - PHO

Eichlig · 9th January 2017, 07:36 PM

Hello, buddies!
Do you guys know how to fix or to at least prevent it from happening?

It doesn't seem to be tool related, and interestingly, it ONLY happens over world (i.e., doesn't affect battles, menus, caves, stores etc...)

It also seems to affect the save itself, so it's not easily fixable! That means that either I have saved the game using VBA or the game save feature, I will guys get this red screen!
(Thus, changing the .gba file won't fix the glitch)

Apparently, the only I could do is starting from scratch... not cool after, for obvious reasons.

Thank you so much!

Do you remember what exactly may have caused the glitch? If we can find out what caused it it might be fixable, also I know you said changing the .GBA file didn't work but have you tried re-saving the .SAV/.SA1 file in a clean ROM before the glitch happens (or maybe even during it)? I'm guessing it might somehow overwrite the broken data with the clean ROM's normal data.
