Interesting. I'm using the Steam version of BtS, which is automatically patched up to 3.19 or whatever. I am not using the original_unsupported_release version. I am using Zulan's exe. I'm using the wrapper that Ramk provided for faster Pitboss connection, but I'll have to double check what this does. Can't quite remember.

I've generated a pbem and attached the save, I'd be curious who can open it and who cannot. Although annoying, this is kinda fascinating.
Opens for me.

I was able to load Cairo's and miguelito's saves, but naufragar's gave me this error message:
So I think it is a problem with modified assets, and it looks like I need to fix my install
Edit: My version is loaded from CDs. Old school.

Eh... If my version's the only one causing problems, maybe don't bother and we just get Miguelito to start.
(Again, please speak up if this is unacceptable to anybody. Otherwise, I'll send him the WB file.)

Fine with me as well.
Regarding the issue I was also able to open everything else but nauf's save (same error that Dave got). I also have old school CD version.

I must say, this entire saga is extremely fascinating.
