Edit: Tried what you suggested, backed up and deleted old savedata, loaded state and re-saved in 0.9.7, same result. Corrupt data. And 0.9.6 still loads the newly-created data just fine.

Hmm, not sure then. This is what I assume we're talking about:

Technically this is caused by a patch you're using. I guess a savestate won't work since it'll still have the wrong sdk version, darn.

That's the one, yeah. I guess the only way to fix it would be for me to start a new game in 0.9.7, then? Hm. Was trying to avoid that as I'm already at level 21 with Terra having just cleared Deep Space (quite some work in Critical Mode, needless to say). Oh well, I guess I could just stick with 0.9.6 for now.

Out of curiosity, what's the reason for the corruption, and why does it only affect the patched version of BBS:FM? I was under the impression the patch only translated the GUI with no modifications to actual game code, so I can't imagine why the patch affects savedata...

Edit: Just fully read through the bug thread you linked, found out it's due to the wrong SDK version being reported by the patched ISO. Would it be possible to directly edit the save file(s) using a hex editor to set the correct version?
