Emulator

It would seem that cashe code isnt cleared once you load a save state, possible cause of issue as later in the game it froze for a couple seconds (not from savestate) then unfroze once the cashe code was cleared again.

This is speculation thought form playing my self, this could be a cause for other gmaes possibly.

this is already been fixed or never was a issue.
because save states work on the latest revision (3.0-735 x64).
im also runnning pal version nothing wrong with it.

Latest version (754) and I am having this issue as well, but hey it's certainly helpful and fun to be totally dismissive...

655 and earlier work, 673 and later don't.

There's a crapload of commits between these two revs (all done on May 25), and many of them involve save states...

Yep, can confirm this ^

Same issue here with the latest v 3.0-840

Are you trying to load save states made with an older version? Those will not work anymore.

When I started this it was with one build only older rev test was just for testing it out

Happens to me with 3.0-776 too. Haven't updated to latest yet but apparently same deal.

This problem is compounded by the fact that my bluetooth keeps disconnecting from my wiimote, which makes the game unresponsive until I physically exit the window and go back in. And if there wasn't a save statue recently...Everything goes downhill. I need these save states ;-;

(Why is it that, when my wiimote disconnects and I reconnect it to the bluetooth while leaving the game open, the game refuses to reconnect with the wimmote using alt+f5 or anything else, unless I exit-restart the game? That's the source of my save-state dilemma)

It probably won't make a difference, but see if it works with a movie active.

Revision 19b0b02ad75d is actually the cause. Specifically, merging it to master. It works fine in more-save-fixes.

Revision 880992b10ff2 relevant?

r880992b10ff2 is indeed relevant. It added the following two lines to http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/source/browse/Source/Core/Core/Src/IPC_HLE/WII_IPC_HLE_Device_FileIO.cpp?name=880992b10ff2#370
p.Do(m_SeekPos);
p.Do(m_Filename);

r19b0b02ad75d removed those lines. Adding them back fixes this issue.

Thanks, limburgerite. I will rectify this issue soon.
