Hi, I tried loading my save files (one is in .ML1 format and 2nd is .SAV) but either Melon would just crash/close or give me an error saying archive might be corrupt or you dont have permission (I'm an admin using Windows 10 tho).
BIOS/firmware settings are uploaded. I tried uploading images here but not sure how. Please help! |

What's the file size of both (both the .ML1 and .SAV files)? If they are compressed or encrypted on any way, melonDS will not be able to read them. Just out of curiosity, does the .sav file comes from no$gba? Also, .ML1 is a save state file from melonDS, try loading it as one to check if it isn't empty. |

Loading that as Save State worked, thank you!! Is that supposed to be the correct way of loading it? Uploading the stock Poke ROM then the save state? BC I had thought the save state becomes a new ROM that I upload directly when opening Lemon
FYI - ML1 is 7MB and SAV is .5 MB. |

The .sav file is definetly off, it's size was supposed to be 512KB. Congratz about the save state tho, after loading it, try saving in-game. |

Yes, .5MB is 500KB. So the emulator crashes on me again when trying to load save state. I googled around and found this HOWTO (kvaak's answer), deleted config file and it worked now...question is, do you know why does it crash in the first place?

Hey, I think I may be having a similar issue. I'm playing Pokemon platinum and usually when I play I just open up melonDS and then click on the .nds file and it gives me the option to access my save file, but it's not doing that anymore. I do have a .sav file but don't have a .ML1 file (idek what that is), but the .sav file reads as a document for my computer (I have a MacBook) and it won't open and when I click on it it just says that theres no application that can run it. Any help?
Edit: The size of the .sav file is like 524 KB if that means anything. Ik yall said earlier it should be 512 but 524 isn't that far off from 512 so idk if thats significant. |

Were you able to fix this problem? I seem to have the same issue with my Mac where when I try to open my save state, it just slows down and does nothing. Eventually, the screen reaches where I saved but it's frozen. Help anyone?
