Pokemon Black 2 Rom

Post by Orc762 » Tue Mar 01, 2016 5:38 pm

Hello,
So I have gotten numerous other roms to work on different devices, but today I thought it would be fun to play Pokemon Black 2 on my Samsung Galaxy S4. I got link removed by admin and I am using the most current version of Drastic DS. Whenever I try to load the game it doesn't show the proper icon for Black 2, and when I hit start game, it says Drastic has unfortunately stopped. I have tried a couple of different roms and I have auto-trim enabled to no avail. I tried extracting the files using winzip, but it says that the .jpg .nds file types are unsupported. I'm really at a loss for what I'm doing wrong here as roms from the same place, chrono trigger ds and phoenix wright have all been very easy. Do you guys have any ideas?

Please don't link to ROMs here, that isn't legal.

There can be problems with 512MB ROMs compressed with 7z, although I don't know what this is compressed with. Are you saying that you can't uncompress it?

You can use the B1 Archiver (http://online.b1.org/online) to decompress the ROM. Upload the compressed file, let it unzip, and download your bare ROM.

You can also find me on Reddit (u/Ericbazinga) and Discord (in the DraStic Discord server). You'll find me in those places almost daily and here almost never.

Its always a good idea to uncompress roms to .nds I dont see why people dont do it because it works better. It takes a lot of CPU to uncompress a 512MB file on the fly
