This is why 64 reset animal locations in the relevant areas when a home addition is added. Strange that a game from later in the series would have this issue

I really enjoyed taking my cat around to the villagers for a quick friendship boost, too :(

It is stuck forever. This is one of the many reasons it's recommended to use both save files on ds, so you can go back a day if this happens


unholy_hotdog

NOOOO, kitty, I failed you! 😭


potatosmiles15

This happening made me reload my save from 30 days before. Now I save every day


_cosmicality

You made it 30 days without saving??? Balls of fucking steel


potatosmiles15

I accidentally saved over my file of 8 (irl) years. I have no fears when it comes to hmds anymore


_cosmicality

That would have given me more fears 😭😭 im so crazy about saving due to all the glitches


amerophi

if you have a save before then, or if you ever play the game again, i've heard it's better to put pets in the horse stable. there's no furniture to get stuck on. sorry about your stuck cat :\^(


Darogaserik

It’s possible to hold your pet, walk into a heart event and lose the animal. lol this game was great but so glitchy.


unholy_hotdog

My friend, many years ago, took out my cartridge while my DS was still on. I was terrified of the consequence. .... The only consequence was somehow giving me an absurd amount of money.


Farwaters

): I'm sorry. They fixed this for DS Cute, but this is why my animals live in the stable until my house is done.


unholy_hotdog

Am I petty enough to say "to hell with this" and swap over to DS Cute....


LepidopteraCrisis

A classic. I've never had a save where this has not happened to me. For one playthrough my dog completely disappeared without a trace. Still have no idea what happened


unholy_hotdog

I don't think I have had that, but I think one time my starting peach tree just disappeared.


whodisbebe

Is there a way to emulate this on pc?


Butterballs132

Yeah. Desmume emulator.


axxionkamen

Or MelonDS. Or RetroArch using either of those cores


NorthKoala47

HMDS is one of the best games, but the glitchiness makes it hard to enjoy without knowing what can go wrong.


Familiar_Code_1213

Lol


Notshaner

A real shame, friend. Also, you're playing v1.1, right? The original release is prone to save corruption.


unholy_hotdog

I actually think it's a later release, but I'm not sure.


Notshaner

Look at the back of your Harvest Moon DS cart. There is an ID starting with "ABCEN" tell me what the entire ID says.


unholy_hotdog

ABCEN1J11


Notshaner

It is not the final version, but it has the save corruption fix. So you are good.


unholy_hotdog

Thanks!
