Ahoy! I'm wondering if there happen to be somebody that knows how to fix this issue, or if the state is lost. I'm just playing Chrono Trigger casually and have saved as usual, but now everytime I load the state Snes9x crashes. I'm using the "snes9x-1.51-rerecording-wip-r11" It works with any other game/state it's just this one that has gone bad. Is there any way to remedy the save or is it just to suck it up and start over? I'm not quite sure what kind, if any, more information I have to provide to solve this issue. If there is anything more I have to tell, please let me know. I'm holding my thumbs that someone will have an answer. Thanks in advance!

I'm sorry to say it, but your savestate is probably toast. However, development on this version of the emulator seems to be active, so you could report this issue on the googlecode project, providing the the defective savestate, and the CRC32 of the ROM you've been using. A developer can hopefully fix the bug.

Ouch, okay. I imagined that this might be the case. I'm gonna load a previous game-save and replay it. For the future, is the 1.51 Snesx more prone to bugs and crashes than 1.43? Or is it no real difference?

It definitely seems that way.
