Hii everyone!

After seeing a friend play crystal chronicles on stream, I wanted to play again, but my new tv doesn't have the required kabels, and my cube was dying anyways, so I decided to emulate/ stream.
Version 5 gave me stutters during gameplay, and I also read you cannot complete a certain level (Goblin wall) so I decided a new version, which worked, until I forgot about the non completeable level. I went back to version 4.0.9224.
I works great! I had some issues with stutter, but nothing a google search couldn't fix.
What ever, what cannot be fixed is saves.
Whatever I do it seems to remember an old save. I removed dolphin 5 from my program list. I removed the entire save folder. Started anew, used CGi instead of memeory card. And if I shut down the emulator and start it up, no issues. But after a reboot, old save is back.
When I saved I uses save states, which I cannot load since it says I need the 4.0.9224 emulator, which is the one I am using. Whever I finish 1 or 2 levels, it suddenly sees the old levels, but the game has no option of LOADING, except restarting the emulator, which gives me the old save again. Save states do work again.
I have NO clue how to fix this, any leads?

In older versions of Dolphin, instead of Goblin Wall being uncompletable, Goblin Wall corrupts the game ID that is stored in the emulated memory, making it so that any saves created after that can't be loaded normally. There is no version of Dolphin where Goblin Wall actually works properly.

So if I am correct, once I run goblin wall and make a game save/ save state, it can never load it again?
Not even save states from dolphin?

I think savestates will work but not regular saves. Relying on savestates isn't a good idea, though.

Shame, ever since I went back to the older version I also had issues with graphical stutters. Seems like I am better of just trying it on my old gamecube then if I want stable gameplay... or wait for the renewed release!
Thanks for the info though!
