Can't patch sakray

[Emerald]

Yes, I've read through all the guides and they don't work/haven't been updated in ages/lead to deadlinks.

Is there a working alternative to get this game patched proper? I'm running it from a fresh full-install of heRO (I reinstalled today, actually, after everything else didn't work) and sakray keeps giving me a popup error in the middle of patching that prevents it from finishing the job--it starts from 2008, makes it to february 2009, then gives a popup error that makes it stop patching but doesn't complete the process. Closing the patcher and trying again makes it start over from the beginning but still encounters the same error each time.

It's really frustrating, and I want to be prepared for ToH. Any ideas????\(?.?)/?

Pleaseandthankyou :<
