Title: Question on savestates/fba version
Post by: jugoso on January 02, 2014, 11:37:40 AM

I know that structs/classes representing machines have changed since v0.2.96.74 (yeah, ggpofba) and, therefore, "old" savestates can't be directly loaded on current version.

I know that I would have to compare source code for both versions in order to get an old savestate working for current version.

My question is: has anyone done this before? Is there a "mystandalonesavestatueupdater.exe" lying around?

thanks

You can certainly try, but there is no easy way. I intend to make some significant changes to the save state functions, I'm still mulling over how to go about it best.

ok, so no luck :C

I just want to update ggpofba to modern day. I know that ggpofba loads a savestate at start, so in order to "keep everything the same" (KISS mentality) I will have to import the savestate.

I will probably branch out the simplest application that loads the savestate, dump the machine struct as a JSON and quit.
