Ukstriker - thanks for opening this thread.
BETA-10 has been released, but let me know if anyone has crashes with it.
Dan - I only bought FM 2006 two and half weeks ago, and only finished my FM 2005 Holiday Game last Friday, so I did not have the time to test it with tons of save games.
Luckilly the FM 2005 & FM 2006 DB formats are not
that different.
I think when the tool will survive one week withouth crash reports, I will make it an RC (release candidate), and after another week it will be final.
Of course I will continue to incorporate new features in it, and the best of it will be the XML output with a transformer EXE and some XSL files that can transform the data into different formats - but anyone will be able to generate new XSL files.
I don't really think that this crashes are that bad, since if I have access to the save game, I can usually fix a crash in 20-30 minutes.
Also I tend to keep those save games that have been sent to me with a problem, and future versions are also tested with all those savegames.
