Defect: Previous snapshots no longer work! #594

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Simple but annoying bug.

Older snapshot saves no longer work.
Displays message 'This file is not in Snes9x Snapshot format'. or something to 
that extent.

Been using the same snapshots for a long while, updating them as the revisions 
kept pouring out but this is really crappy. Lost a lot of really long, hard 
work and several hours worth of gameplay.

sorry I can't do anything about it. This is because the state format changed in 
Snes9x - it's just impossible to work around.

Changed state: Invalid

This is exactly why people need to make both savestates AND native saves 
(in-game saves). There has been massive changes in the core when it went from 
1.51 to 1.52. Not to mention there's no point in going back to the old core.

I figured that was probably what happened. Eh, oh well. Thanks for the heads up 
dborth.
