...that said I tested your theory, and I didn’t have any corrupt date error message at all, and it loaded the game perfectly which was near THE END OF THE STORY, despite the fact that i just restarted it...Then I took my saved game from the end of the game and I replaced the MAINSAVE.BSG
Once done i copied this to the ps3 and i replace the old ie. Unaltered save that was on there, then i started the game and it loaded at the end of the story, as you can see i had no problem with loading the game, and no error /corrupt data message, perhaps yours is an isolated incident
You didn't really recreate the manner in which I am doing it. I'd venture to say you can't do it with an autosave and with one of those *.chk files as that may direct the mainsave.bsg file with what location to load.
I'll try it tonight with a manual save right after the game starts.
If you wanted to prove/disprove anything you should try and recreate the hacked save with an autosave.
If it is confirmed that auto saves files won't work with the known method of replacing the mainsave.bsg files then it should be spelled out in the "guides" and a separation of US EU and other territorial locations.
Are these saves you made with all updates with 1.10 being the most recent?
