#Is there any way to check what frame I'm on with lua, or see what else I might be doing wrong?

Hey all, over the last couple weeks I've RNG'd probably 20 pokemon no problem in both gen 5 and 4. All of the sudden I literally cannot get anything to work in gen 5. It's a full second window and I haven't changed anything I'm doing. I've confirmed my timer0 hasn't changed. I'm in the Dreamyard, I load it up, spam X, and my chatot cries are nowhere close. I've been able to catch up and find my frame before even in a sandstorm where it's hundreds off, this feels different, like I'm not hitting my seed somehow.

#

I'm using desmume, changing my system clock to about a minute before my target second, and resetting once it hits. Has worked 20+ times in a row but suddenly no luck

I'm getting it to output my initial seed when the game boots up but it's not doing anything else. On desmume 0.9.11

Gotcha, ty. To confirm, should the "initial seed" that pops up match the seed in rngreporter?

Yep

#

Use RunAsDate to help you hit it if it is the first time you're doing this

That's the thing, I've done this maybe 15-20 times on this exact setup with no issues and now it's suddenly not working. When I put the seed it's giving me into the parameter finder thing, it shows that I'm hitting the correct second, but the seed there doesn't match the one in RNG Reporter

Can you send some screens pls?

Does this just seem like timer0 shifting and I need to recalibrate?

#

Are you restarting the emu pressing restart on Lua window?

brave wedge
#

I've been hitting CTRL R let me see if that gives a different result

#

Read what I wrote in github

TY! Getting some weird results still even when doing it correctly, I'm going to do some troubleshooting and make sure its not a timer0 thing. Appreciate the help getting lua set up
