What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

With 5.0-12226, whenever I load a save state, I get this error:

"After "VertexShaderManager", found 0 (0x0) instead of save marker 66 (0x42). Aborting savestate load..."

No matter where I put a savestate in the game.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Reverting to 5.0-12219 fixed this problem.

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

Yes, issue is in 5.0-12228.

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

No.

If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)

5.0-12226

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer

[Attach any fifologs if possible, write a description of fifologs and screenshots here to assist people unfamiliar with the game.]

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

Windows 10 1909, i7-7700, 32 GB ram, GTX 1060 6GB video card.

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

I guess something we did should have bumped up the savestate version. Either way, savestates aren't meant to be portable between builds, so you should make a game save instead before swapping builds in the future.

This isn't the issue. My save state was created in 12228 (problem started with 12226), and loading that save state causes the error.

I also tested out Super Smash Bros. Melee (GALE01, Version 1.02) on 12228 created a new save on the memory card, created a save state, and tried to load it. Same error occurred.
