[SOLVED : crredit to LUNAMOO] MH3 mem stick duo not inserted ~B10

Just as I always say nothing is broken here, it's just getting desynchronized.
You see MH game checks save and remembers the last one you used. It keeps it in memory, savestate IS that memory. Now if you use savestate, then save the game normally and load that savestate made earlier, game will expect to see an older save which you already doesn't have and will not allow you to save. That's exactly why I call it "desynchronized" not broken or anything and why the simplest solution if you didn't lost a lot of gameplay is running the game normally and continuing from normal save. Any workarounds are usefull only to get back lost gameplay hours;p.



I checked your savestate and it didn't had the save in it's memory, so my older method wouldn't work, but nothing's lost. The cheat I made above would allow to delete old save and save your current game even on desynchronized game. Looking at your savestate you have a MHp3rd HD version, not the normal one, so here's one for it:

Code:

//for MHp3rd HD
_C0 change save menu to delete/create new save
_L 0x20090994 0x00000000
_C0 restore normal saving
_L 0x20090994 0x0E223D25

If you never used cheats, well activate them, then run the game at least once to create an ini file, paste those codes above to your NPJB40001.ini file inside memstick\PSP\Cheats folder.
Activate only 1st code which will allow you to delete older/desynchronized save and after which allow to write a new properly working one. Then you can disable the first cheat and enable the second one to restore original code and continue as if nothing happened.

This works only for one character through so if you had more characters, the newly created save will have only current one, sorry:]. I'll have to get more time to check how exactly game works to do it properly, this game does something stupid which with my limited mips understanding isn't clear to me yet, it's not the only thing I'm doing now either so it might take a while;p.
