    I was playtesting my game when my laptop suddenly froze and I was forced to shut it down using the power button. After that, when I tried to play my game, I kept getting an error saying it couldn't load the system.rxdata file. I replaced the file with the original one from Pokemon Essentials, and now I keep getting errors regarding either the maps or the script. These are the messages I get:
    [PokeCommunity.com] Incompatible marshal format

    I'm really, really, really frustrated about this.... I was so close to being done with making my game, and then this happens.... Does anyone know if there's anything I can do about this?

    Hey,
    It looks very frustrating instead. I guess now you plan on making backups ^^"

    Do you still have your original System.rxdata, by chance?
    Maybe put it back, delete your savegame and try starting a new game. If you can't, show us the error message.

    Also, what was happening in your game when the laptop crashed? Compiling? Saving? Just running something else?
    I don't know what System.rxdata contains, so I don't now if it's regularly modified while the game is running. I highly doubt it though. I would guess that the problem is in the savegame.

    Maybe someone who knows better can give a more precise answer.
