			The only items added to SSSC were the rememberizer and a few bromides, so it should be in there. I think JestroZooks was able to get it but not the tear... so maybe a flags issue, depending when each of you updated the patch vs your progress at the time?

			I will load the original untranslated version to confirm. Close to the end. Obviously still happens...

Didn't see this, but I've only ever gotten the iso to work in Fenrir. Just put that in its own folder. I name it 01.iso

			Beat the game, was ready to take control of Alex at the epilogue and the game freezes right at that point. Tried again, same thing, freeze for eternity. Also, had some graphics corruption in Phacias character portrait in the last area. Also, has a weird bug when Althena/Luna is shooting lighting at Alex; in the Japanese version Alex falls and it loads the movie sequence. In this version it kind of crashes, but you can keep walking up and get it to load the last movie sequence.

			Thanks for the update. Im not really sure whats causing the data corruption on that image as it exists in SSS. The portrait prior to it is new.. but i guess that ones fine. I would probably need a save to debug both that and the epilogue. Ill doublecheck the lightning.. i think there was a script alteration that may explain that odd behavior. Yeah right where the lightning is the commands are different. Ill revert them and see if that fixes the issues.

			Will be hard to get you those save files. Using original hardware.

Shouldn't be too hard to write a quick Saturn program to read the save data, encode it to audio, and play it. Using an RCA to 3.5 mm adapter you would then record it on your PC. It's basically a one-way modem. Maybe 100 bits a second throughput?

Barring of course the Netlink, Comms link card, Floppy disk drive, and new Pseudo Saturn carts with SD cards (not sure if you can transfer saves, I assume you can).

		cww80		Jul 5, 2020
			Alright, I'll do it. Show me the way. I could also mail my backup ram cart. Sadly, the saturn gamers carts with sd card slots are unavailable. (unlikely to be made again)

			How big is the save data by the way? If I were to do this I would use Jo Engine. 1) Jo Engine has a sample showing how to use the backup memory. johannes-fetz/joengine.... I would read the save data to main memory as step 1. 2) Depending on the size of the save, it might be possible to treat each bit as "dot" or "dash" like in morse code. So I would have two PCM files, one representing 0, and the other representing 1 and treat my file as a long bit string. 3) On the PC side, once you have the audio, write a program to convert it back to binary. I'm not sure what APIs exist for this, I can do a little research. If you are serious about attempting this I'm willing to help.

		cww80		Jul 5, 2020
			Absolutely, I have some free time tomorrow. Will be available after 930am central time. The save is 129, not sure what that is in kb.

			Try this build @cww80... It reverts text42 to use the SSS commands in the script. Probably doesnt fix the Phacia picture, but i think it will fix the lightning scene and subsequent crash. I'll try to get the debug script (text7) running, I had some mild success at one point. If it works, I might be able to jump to the end of the game that way.

		cww80		Jul 6, 2020
			It works better (Perfect! What was working Designs thinking altering it?) at the Luna as Althena scene, but unfortunately still freezes when you gain control in the Epilogue. I accidentally overwrote the Phacia portrait part. I didn't realize I was limited to 3 saves per ram type. Grr. Action Replay lets you save duplicates, but it's impossible to know what's, what... Btw, I currently started another file. Want to confirm that everything is working as it should. No more duplicate White Dragon Wings, etc

		Mr Conan		Jul 6, 2020
			At what point in the epilogue does it freeze? Are there any text boxes displayed? Or does it freeze right after the movie?

		cww80		Jul 6, 2020
			It freezes right after the initial exchange between the party members. Basically as soon as you are about to control Alex with Luna in the party.

		Mr Conan		Jul 6, 2020
			Try this... there was one command difference between SSS and SSSC, and it happens right before you get control. I just went and removed it.

		cww80		Jul 6, 2020
			It works!

			In my current playthrough with the latest patch, I received Luna's Bromide 1 and not 2 after Ghaleons big coming out. According to various walkthroughs its supposed to be Luna's Bromide 2. On my completed file as soon as I enter the epilogue it disappears from my inventory and then Ramus gives Luna's Bromide 1 and not 2.

Luna's Bromide 2 isn't in Silver Star Story, it was added in Complete. Other Bromides were moved around going from Silver Star Story to Silver Star Story Complete. Double check this page to see if they're still not correct:

LunarNET - Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete

		cww80		Jul 8, 2020
			Excellent. Thanks for that. I will keep playing through and see if it still happens during the epilogue.
