GB Transferer II and pokemon silver

hi! i've just read on this forum http://www.assemblergames.com/forums/showthread.php?35049-Dumping-GB-and-GG-carts that the GB Transferer II has problems dumping GBC cartridges if they use a Macronix chip (and most of them do). Yesterday i tried to dump my pokemon silver and i got a lot of bad dumps with wrong CRCs and if i compare them with a good dump i have they all have some differences (in different places!). So im wondering if pokemon silver uses this Macronix chip or if there is another problem im not aware of (like a copy protection?)

thanks!

 

I've never been able to dump pokemon silver/gold/crystal with my gb tranferer II, only the save file can be saved correctly.

And yes Pokemon gold/silver/crystal uses a MX (MacroniX?) chip.

 

not looking good for me then

 

but it works perfectly for the pokemon saves i guess this is what you need the most

ok thanks, did you get (as i did) all different (and wrong) dumps?

 

Yes every time I tried the dump on emulator the results were different.

 

Are there any alternative programmers still available that work perfectly with gb and gbc games? Maybe even any better solutions to dump/upload game saves to retail carts?
