Save checks stats!
« on: February 16, 2012, 03:13:49 AM »
Huh. If you change the characters max HP or MP while doing the Bonus Quest, complete the dungeon, and then save...

"The data cannot be loaded."


No such problems with money though.


Thank god for .bak save files!

Was this done via Strongirl Juice/Mystery Juice, or by using a cheat editor?  As I understand it, the bonus from stat boosters actually goes into a counter that is separate from base stats, so if you modify the basic stats, it is possible that the game would go "Huh?  Why is this character's basic attributes out of sync with this table?".

Done via editor. This problem does not exist if stats are changed and loaded in the main quest though.

I noticed that if the bug is done as per my previous post, the save file goes under a different location than "Prologue Clear Data" when it is saved.

That's the problem. I would assume that it could be possible to cause a ton of crashing by modifying values with a cheat editor, doing things the game believes it to simply be impossible to do, so its not been coded in ways to deal with such modifications because they can't happen during gameplay.
