[UPDATED!] - Nintendo 64 : How to emulate Transfer Pak (For Pokemon Stadium 1 & 2)

[jats605]

Prlly a n00b question, but Where (or how) do i have to save in my Silver ROM? I know its in a Pokemon center...

[jats605]

srry if this is the second time iv posted this. If not, dont ask.

Anyway, prrly a n00b question, but Where (or how) do i save on my silver? I yes, I know its in a pokemon center.

[jats605]

(this is the 3rd time iv had to post this. must be a glitch)
Where do i dave on silver to use the trasnfer pak? everthing else is good.

[RickyRick]

Hey, I loaded a pokemon gold .sav file into my pokemon stadium 2, and it is playable there, but I hadn't saved at a pokemon center. When I opened up my gbc emulator, my pokemon gold file was gone. Is there anyway I can get that back? I have kigb as my gameboy emulator.

[Jale]

Never tried kigb since I always used Visual Boy Advance and loaded save files flawlessly.

[David999999]

Just wanted to say thanks for everyone in this thread helping people. I had the same problems with the transfer pak, like it not showing up, or not reading the save file. I eventually got them all fixed thanks to this thread though :D



The only bad part is that the game itself freezes, and the music lags and skips horribly in some parts, and it makes it practically unplayable. I've heard the music and audio is a main problem with Project 64. Is there any way to fix this? I've already tried changing all available plugins but nothing works. Increasing the buffer from zilmars audio plugin helped the skipping some, but the game goes all weird, old Nintendo graphics in some points. Like Charmeleon uses Flamethrower and red blocks fire out.



Can anyone help with this?

[ulaoulao]

It may help if you list your system specs in as much detail as you can.

[David999999]

Ok, I'll list the ones that I know how to get the info on:




Intel Pentium III Processor


997 Mhz


512 mb RAM


Windows XP Professional/ Service Pack 2/ Version 2002




If there are any more you need, you'll have to tell me how to get to them. That should be enough to run a 64 emulator I'd think. The 64's not that high tech.



************************************************** *******




Also, to the guy on page 7 or so who was asking if the GB tower in Stadium was any different then the gameboy game, the answer is no, it's not. It doesn't play with the 64's graphics or anything. I played the first Pokemon Stadium when it first came out, and I played my gameboy game through it just because I wanted to play on a bigger screen. Nothing changes at all.

[David999999]

Ok well, that little exchange went effectively nowhere. Can someone else help me?

[Jale]

There are known issues running Pok?mon Stadium 2. Some screen such as battle menu goes insanely slow and that's "normal". And you haven't specified any video card so I assume you must have an integrated (on-board) one.


...The 64's not that high tech.
Just because the Nintendo 64 is not high-tech, it doesn't necessarily mean it will perform well on your PC. Your specs are somewhere minimal to run a Nintendo 64 emulator, but in order to get better performance, at least a Pentium 4 processor and a fast integrated on-board graphics are required.

[David999999]

Ok well thanks for telling me Jale. but I'm not upgrading my computer just to play this, I'll just play it on the 64. I already own a N64 and Pokemon Stadium 2 for it, I just didn't own a Pokemon game to complement it (until I found my old Blue Cartridge in the basement! :D) and I didn't want to lose my emulator Pokemon.


I'm currently doing a deal on craigslist for a bunch of 64 stuff, including Pokemon Yellow and a Transfer Pak though, (that is, if the guy accepts my offer).



Anyway, thanks again for telling me and saving me hours of hassle tweaking everything, and spending hours online to find the answer.

WTF! When I Go To Setup I dont see "Transfer Pak" What The Hell Is Happening

[Jale]

The same question is being asked all over. Get the latest update.

[edge rated r]

[Jale]

The GB Tower is not compatible yet. Sorry. It will either not detect a cartridge or crash.

[redarrowkuczynski]

Hey everyone. This is my first day as a member and my first post. I am having a problem and I wonder if anyone could help me out. I have the transfer pack plugin working but I can't use the Lab anymore. When I highlight the lab and press A, the screen goes white and the fps hangs right around 59.5 - 60. Has anyone else had (or is having) this problem? I am using pj64 v. 1.6 and n-rage 1.82 plugin and I have pokemon yellow and blue in transfer pack spots 1 and 2. Thanks! I'll check for replies on next tuesday or wednesday.

[muhib_shah]

darn it why i cant use this transfer pak i am receiving this error the game pak cannot be used please help me jale

[Jale]

Make sure you're using the right Gameboy cartridges for each Pok?mon Stadium version. The first Pok?mon Stadium only supports RED, BLUE and YELLOW games, while Pok?mon Stadium 2 supports all of them, which are RED, BLUE, YELLOW, GOLD, SILVER and CRYSTAL.

[Amar]

I'm getting the error "Saved file not found." The game pak shows up like above the controller but it has the message "Saved file not found." under it.

I have Visual Boy Advance (tried it with Red and Crystal) and latest Project 64. I've done all the steps but after I select Transfer Pak from the combo box, where do I select the GBC and SAV files from in the two last fields? Where exactly should I save the "GB Rom file" and the "GB Rom save"?

[Amar]

Please help me out with my question, last page

[Jale]

Make sure you're using the appropiate versions for each Pokemon game:

Pokemon Stadium 1 supports:


Pokemon Red
Pokemon Blue
Pokemon Yellow

Pokemon Stadium 2 supports:


Pokemon Red
Pokemon Blue
Pokemon Yellow
Pokemon Gold
Pokemon Silver
Pokemon Crystal

As for the ROMs and save files, go to wherever you saved your GBC ROMs. The save files should be in the same location as the ROMs themselves.

I remember using this guide, the update makes it a lot more clear now. :)

[Shlush]

I don't understand this.

I have Project64 (V1.6) on my computer, and pok?mon stadium 1 and 2! I only play 2... If I wan't to go to the Pok?mon Lab, this comes up "No game pak can be selected". The same on GB tower, my room :confused:

But I don't know what advatages I have with a game pak? :) Can someone explain to me?

Sorry for my bad english!

[Jale]

What gamepak are you trying to run?

[muhib_shah]

ha ha ha ha ha hello jale can you remember i asked a question one year ago about transfer pak and i forgot about my question today i was downloading emulator from this site and i thought i asked a questions from jale about game pak ha ha ha am not i crazy i am trying your mentioned method after a year and replying you. ok i will try it hope it works.:o

[muhib_shah]

well your avatar is very nice.

[kelseykieber]

Whenever I download the 1.82a it only lets me select 1.80a on my emulator.

@muhib_shah: Thanks ^^ I hardly remember people though :P

What about using N-Rage V2 2.2 Beta?

[Nagato]

Hey , I have the update 182 , and pj64 1.6 , but when I start up Pokemon stadium 2 after I press start it says to "Turn the N64 Control Deck off before attaching or removing a GB Game Pak or controller"
Then once I press A it takes me back to the "Press Start" screen.
How do I fix this?

[MarioGeek]

Does anyone have a clue why my Ho-Oh won't show up for Poke-Cup (Lvls. 50-55). It is a lvl. 52, but is the only pokemon out of the six that doesn't show up.

It shows up in Free Battle, Gym Leader Tower, and Ultra Cup, but not Poke-Cup. Weird. I know this thread seems dead, but a reply would be nice. (:

Hi, im not very good with computers but I have a question. At the being of the furum where you have the picture of how to make it work. The picture with the quetion marks is what the game looks like and says saved file not found.... Can you please tell me how to fix this...........

You're probably doing something wrong. Read the instructions carefully.

Hi I've been trying to get nrage transfer pak working for awhile on my gba fire red game. But it doesnt look like anyone has this problem, I can't figure it out. Does the n64 transfer pak work with gameboy advance?

Hi I've been trying to get nrage transfer pak working for awhile on my gba fire red game. But it doesnt look like anyone has this problem, I can't figure it out. Does the n64 transfer pak work with gameboy advance?

This is probably because the GBA game "Pokemon: Fire Red" did not exist during the creation of Pokemon Stadium, or any GBA game for that matter. You have to actuallly use the GB game "Pokemon: Red" or any other first generation pokemon game.

[dustt]

thank you i've downloaded it

[PokemonTrainerMighty]

Um, I have a problem.
When I try to select the "Transfer Pak" option from the drop-down menu, it doesn't show.
What did I do wrong?

[PokemonTrainerMighty]

It says "404 forbidden error"

[Mupen64 Man]

It says "404 forbidden error" Do you mean for the website? I just tried out the link, and I get no such error.

[ValorNET]

Is it possible to use an ACTUAL PHYSICAL transfer pack to play on an emulator? I'm much more interrested in doing that, as I can play on-the-go and then play Pok?Mon Stadium(s) at home, on PC; as opposed to having to play the GameBoy games on a PC.

[camonster]

Hello Jale, first I want to thank you for the time that you put into this forum. Second after i downloaded the 1.82 version and extract the files when I go to set the transfer plugin the only two options are memory and rumble. I also noticed that the extracted data reads v 1.80a. i am sure that i am downloading from the right link as i have retried 3 times and the readme file talks as if it were 1.82. Do you know what i am doing wrong?

[camonster]

I think you should get the latest version from NGEmu.com (http://www.ngemu.com/download.php?action=plugin&id=84).
that link is nbow dead

[MarioGeek]

That's odd. Just keep trying (1.82a). Remember to extract it with winRAR into the Project64 plugins folder. It won't work until 1.82a is available as an input plugin.

[ckrjs94]

how do you do that on Mac

[MarioGeek]

PJ64 doesn't work out on Mac. You'd need to use sixtyforce or Mupen64, but I doubt it would be the same outcome.

[flaaen101]

yes i am having probs can someone plz help me im trying to get my transfer pack to work on pokemonstdum 2 to work and when i get to the mem pak spot and try to get my saved file from yellow i cant find any saves

[Mupen64 Man]

The plugin only knows how to find .sav files, are your save files .sav?

Hello guys. I am new here and I would like to ask some things. Before two days I downloaded Project64 v2.1. I also downloaded Pkmn stadium. I was playing well, but today I wondered if I could use pkmn from r/b/y. So I downloaded visualboyadvansed and pkmn red. I also read the instructions of the first post. I downloaded n-rage plugin version2 1.82a and then I did what you said with the settings. When I went to controller pak , I selected transfer pak. Then I tried to find the .gbc and .sav files, but they werent anywhere. The only files I have in vba are pkmn red.sav and pkmn red.sgm. So I renamed pkmn red.sgm to pkmn red.gbc. Now in transfer pak it found both files, so I pressed save. Then I opened pkmn stadium rom. I heard the ''pikaaa'' and suddenly I got this message. ''There is a problem with the GB Game Pak's connector. Please turn the N64 control deck off and consult the transfer pak instruction booklet''. Well, I am stuck now and I dont know what to do, so I would want your help please. Thank you very much. :)

[bburke12684]

I keep getting a message that says no save file can someone help please

[Pappous]

Greetings. First of all, thanks for the guide, effort and time spent. Emulation is a wonderful thing. I just wanted to write down some things, after having tried them. And kindly request for some help.

Keep in mind that Yellow is the trickiest Rom to emulate in Project 64 with transfer pack plugin. Other versions than 1.82a usually end up in displaying wrong data or glitched pokemon (boxed pokemon, in Professor Oak's Lab, stadium 2).

That aside, both 1.82a and the newest, current version (2.23c), work correctly. They display properly the inserted roms and their data. You can load 2 roms/saves at the same time, and even trade using the stadium 1/2 machine in Oak's Lab!

Now, if your emulator buttons suddenly stop functioning while loading two games/saves in stadiums, simply configure the controller which has not yet assigned buttons (usually the second). And after this, they work normally.

You can use mysterygift between 2nd gen roms/saves, and you'd better do it; 3 items can only be obtained by using the stadium 2 for mystery gifts. And last but not least, you can use the stadium storage items or trade pokemon functions like a duplicating cheat, because it is in emulation. It is quick and easy. Simply back somewhere up the gameboy rom's save file, the one which you insert into stadium later. Store pokemon, trade them away, store items. Now enter into stadium the INITIAL, backed up save, and use it to claim the stored/traded away goodies.

Thanks again for the guide. I hope to have expanded on it a little bit. Finally, if you play red/blue or gold/silver, you can change one's saved game to the other's, like renaming blue sav into red sav, and using it to catch the version exclusives, WITHOUT starting a new game and going through the entire game from scratch.

[TheMultiGamer4]

When I followed these instructions now my Stadium 1&2 say "There is a promblem with the GB Game Pak's connector. Please turn off the N64 Controller Deck OFF and consult the Transfer Pack Instruction Booklet." ......so what do I do now? Now the game wont even lemme play :/

First thing to do is to check if your GB Roms are Good Dump With GoodGB

I followed this updated thread to every single detail. The game paks are recognized but for some reason I still get " ????? ID ***** Saved file not found" (whether i use the currently updated version 2.5.2.202 or 1.82 - same result). When I open my GB emulator (I use multiple ones but tend to stick to KiGB 2.04) I have no issues booting/loading/saving/etc... I'm using Project 64 2.3.2.202. Please help, I feel like the answer is so simple and staring me right in the face in plain sight.

Sadly I am too stupid and poor with computers to use those programs. I would require a video tutorial just like I did with project64 once.
Its really odd the project64 pokemon crystal should be the same programs I used 5 years ago and they worked flawlessly.
Now it just complains about save game cannot read id.

cant get the project64 to read my pokemon crystal save or any other version of gba.
The only difference now is that I have win10.

Could somebody link me a working project64 with working pokemon crystal? that would be so easy.

Somehow I have a feeling it has something to do with the pokemon crystal rather than the 64stuff.
It is saved at pokemon center it should work but it aint. Cant recall having problems like this before.

Of course the programs I downloaded dont have interface like the ones one the video.
It seems I have to pay some computer genius to do this for me because I lack the skills.
Why dont they just predo all this and then release them for download..

like toss in stadium 2 with crystal on it and working flawlessly.. but no gotta do everything bymyself without any skills what so ever.. well at least I can play the game in my dreams. even if I got it working then I would prolly have problems with the cheat codes who knows. Thanks for trying to help anyways.

[Genwunner]

if anybody has a working project 64 and pokemon crystal please give me a link for download. :bow:

[Genwunner]

lol I just called the local computer guy of this town(only got 1. small town) he has no idea how to do it .. well I guess thats it then. It was nice playing it 5 years ago gosh.. I miss project 64 when it actually worked.

Maybe the problem lies with the crystal ram but I tried several.. Never really had any problems with project 64 b4 it was so simple and good to use. I couldve even programmed a controller to it because it was so simple. real shame.

[Genwunner]

muppen cannot find the gameboy cartridge rom
no matter how I do it wont detect anything.
it does find the ram but not the rom. I wonder how much do I have to pay to somebody to get this actually working

muppen can only detect blue and red... not gold or crystal or anything wthhh.. I shouldve kept my old pc it had everything working flawlessly
just tried blue on muppen and it didnt work. wth is going on here why nothing works. doesnt anybody have a working project64 with crystal floating around?

edit: bah its useless iv been trying for months now all it says is saved file not found theres no way around it iv tried all the plugin versions too.
the problem probably lies with the save file..
now I started new game and saved in pokemon center am I supposed to do something differently?

just send me a link to a working project64 and crystal if any of u have cannot play otherwise wont work.

[Genwunner]

problem solved. I had not saved the game properly in the pokemon center thru the game options > save itself
I had only saved it via the rom emulator so this is why it did not reg the save file.

Thank you for trying to help me and now the real churning begins! ahh I love this game
