Ouch, thanks! That does NOT sound like something that I can easily parse any further with my crude bash one-liners :mrgreen: And it explains why my experiments with cmp & diff lead nowhere - even freshly started vanilla savegames are too different in their structure to recognize the difficulty s...

So I guess the problem is mostly that noone tried yet? Or did anyone fail already? I suck at that sort of stuff, so if anyone more skilled already failed - please speak up before I break my brain :D Also: Are those saves cpp parameter structures compressed with zlib or something after I ditch the un...

Why / how did you find that out? Shouldn't changing the difficulty in the savegame affect the attributes of creatures that weren't spawned yet at least?

Did some more testing. Could reproduce the crashes on saving most reliably when setting down a container with items in it on the ground before hitting quicksave. Hitting quicksave multiple times in a row without changing anything in the world on the other hand did not seem to cause crashes. Anyone a...

Had no crashes in one wineprefix with the GOG version pre patch. Now, in another wine prefix / steam version after patch I get frequent crashes when saving the game. Couldn't copy the error message, but it said something like this "vbrun: the program exited in an unusual manner" (nothing t...

So... If I start playing the beta as available on Steam now... will I have to start all over yet another time to get those invisible wall bugs and whatever else is there is fixed later?
