Tileset Problem

Hello,

I did a stupid thing. I wanted a Hoenn route 120-like puddle and well, while I was standing on the clear/still water tiles I noticed that you could surf over them, so I tried to change the terrain tag, thinking it would work. Being past midnight, I labeled the terrain tags to "0" where I was standing via the ingame debugger. After saving the game and then my computer froze, saying the script took too long. I had to reboot the computer. When I tried to reopen the game file, it said that RPG Maker XP failed to load tileset data. I also can't open the editor. How do I reinstall the data or am I royally screwed?

EDIT: Can I have this relabeled to an "Essentials Question"?

Did you force a shutdown while rmxp was open? That may corrupt the files.
First, try replacing just the Game.rpxpproj file and your Data/EditorScripts (I kind of forgot the file extensions) from a clean version. The latter may allow you to correct your Tilesets file.
If that doesn't work, then backup your Data folder and replace the corrupted files.
I hope you have an earlier backup somewhere, else you will lose a lot of work.
(If this was a collaborative project, see if anyone has a copy. I use Github to backup and distribute updates to my uncompiled project. If Github lost the files, my friends would have my last distribution.)

16.0 apparently. My test pikachu got paralyzed so I might be using an earlier version than I thought.
