Animal Crossing City Folk hanging save

[Llewellyn]

Hello all,

I have been playing Animal Crossing City Folk on Dolphin for a couple of days just fine, however recently i am left hanging on my save
as it takes forever and never stops attempting to save. I have disabled Wiiconnect 24 in both the wii system menu WAD and in the pre game menu. I have been able to save on a downloaded save however i am wondering if there is a way to fix this issue or do i need to start a new save?

Have you ever used savestates?

I have heard of them but do not know what exactly they do or if it would effect my game because ACCF runs in real time

Good, I wanted to make sure they didn't break your save.

So I either have to use a secondary method of saving (I.e. talking to a gate keeper to get the game saved) or use a different save / map?
