Note:
The saves are not from my own gameplay.
I recived information from other user. He started game with 1.2 slave and somewhere around level 4 he updated slave to 1.3.
So the bug may happend with slave 1.2.
Can be nice if slave can somehow fix broken save... :)

Do you have the real savegame files from the winuae savestat ? It’s not the same that in the whdload installed version.

Could he send you the savegame files, the savestat does not help me a lot.

Hi.
I finished the game recently myself and i was not able to reproduce the issue.
I bet that it was caused by starting the game with slave 1.2 which caused it, then upgrade to 1.3 with already broken saves.

The game crashed for me maybe twice or three times durning my gameplay. But this was random.

So this issue can be closed i believe.

BTW, i hit a real ingame bug preventing from the posibillity to finish the game. At last i think so. In level 23, there is a final fight with with Ariath - the boss mage. It is easy to finish him. But he can teleport himself to random places in the level to heal. Unfortunatelly, in my case he teleported behind the door from which he had the key, so it was impossible to finish the game. Luckilly, i had the save from start of the last level.
