BUG? Power Berry didnt register

[BleedingAngel]

I was trying to fish the power berry in winter season

and i caught it!At 5:50am....when the amination was tyring to eat the berry, the day was over.

And guess what?

It didnt register, but the music played (when I caught the berry)

i tried to fish it again.. couldnt get it again..tried to fish about 3 full days, not getting anything

Save File accidently over written ( because i was so excited that i finally got it, and i noticed it didnt register after i saved it...sad)

Anybody knows will i get it again or not?

If you open your Fishing log.. is the power berry listed? If so, then you won't be able to catch it again since the game registered the power berry to have been caught once, and you won't be able to catch it again.

Sorry to hear that, but I think you just had bad luck. It's possible to use a debug tool for your game and add that additional power berry manually into your stamina. Otherwise, if you don't want to go through all that you'll have to restart your playthrough. I'm sorry.

Here's a pro tip for you and for anyone: Always use the entire 8 save slots available to you. Use one save slot for one day, and use the next slot for the next day, and so on until you filled slot 8, then the next day you can overwrite slot 1. Like this example:

Slot 1: Spring 2
Slot 2: Spring 3
Slot 3: Spring 4
Slot 4: Spring 5
Slot 5: Spring 6
Slot 6: Spring 7
Slot 7: Spring 8
Slot 8: Spring 9

After the entire slot is full, Spring 10 could overwrite slot 1 and so on, so for Spring 10 and 11, it would look like this:

Slot 1: Spring 10
Slot 2: Spring 11
Slot 3: Spring 4
Slot 4: Spring 5
Slot 5: Spring 6
Slot 6: Spring 7
Slot 7: Spring 8
Slot 8: Spring 9

And keep going in each cycle.

That way, you always have a backup save 1 day before for the entire week. So if things like this ever happen, you just need to reload a previous save from a previous day, and you only miss out one day of work, and redo that one day instead of messing up your entire playthrough.

And there's enough backup files for a 1 week buffer if you mess something up that will affect a week's worth of work.

This is also good for permanently missable events or items.

I've used this save method since the PS1 era of HM:Back to Nature. I used all 2 memory cards for a total of 6 save slots for the game. It's really helpful.

Yea, its listed... caught 1 power berry

is there a way go back to the over written saved file?

[Neo King Arthur]

What about the Auto-save? did that get overwritten too because you got thrown to the next day?
Otherwise, no I can't think of any way to restore a previously overwritted save file.

[BleedingAngel]

yea, it automatically over written to the next day

dont worry, im about to start my 3rd journey

haha

what of a chance to get that------ 5:50am catches power berry hahahah

Yeah, I hope it works well for you.. I'm on my 5th journey now, had to reset a couple of things because I missed some events that won't trigger anymore. So I need to plan things more properly myself.

But have a think about my save method that I mentioned. It'll really help you with getting through tight spots like this.
