Save state

I think that when he said things like 'old version savestate' he did NOT mean what it would mean, if someone with a good grasp of the English language said it (which is how most recent posters seem to have taken it). So I do NOT think he was speaking of a savestate in a format from an old PPSSPP version.

Instead I think that his phrase 'old version savestate' simply means 'previous savestate made', and that it was made with the very same emulator version he is still running when the problem occurs.

So as I interpret his posts, his problem is that the emulator sometimes malfunctions in storing a new savestate, and in so doing overwrites the previous savestate with garbage data. (Thus leaving him with no working savestate to reload.)

I may be wrong, but this is the only interpretation of his posts that makes sense to me, in light of his admitted language problems.

If I am right, then a partial workaround for his problem would be for him to alternately swap between savestate slot 1 and slot 2 for each new save. This way he should always be able to reload a fairly recent save, if a new save crashes, as that should then overwrite an older save than the last successful one.
