    Default Corrupted save file in FFVI Advance [Gameboid]

    Hey guys, I have a little problem. I'm playing FFVI Advance on my Android phone using the Gameboid emulator and when I save in-game (not save states) I always get "save file is corrupted". When I press A it says "Corrupted file is deleted" but then it just goes back to the previous screen and it's an endless loop...



    Now I've been using save states as a work around, but I'm about to fight the last boss and I want to do the post-game stuff which I'm pretty sure requires that I save after the boss and credits. So I'm wondering if there really is any way to fix this. I've already tried saving with all the different save types. Maybe there's a way to convert Gameboid save states to VBA??

    You need to change the save type. Sorry but I can't remember exactly which one it was but there's only a few choice.

    You can find it in settings => other settings=> save type

    Make sure there is no save data and do not re-load save states if changing save types otherwise it will not work

    save states normally save the state of the emulator as well as the game including settings so loading in a save states after changing certain things will just revert the changes
