For those interested, a small program (Windows 64 bits version) to patch a save file for fixing the bug concerning the Clown Killer Quest on Festival Island (i.e. find who has stabbed the clown).
If you are concerned (i.e. if you have interrogated the people and inspect the blood BEFORE talking to the guard near the clock), you ALWAYS got the following text when speaking to this guard:
"Talk to me again when you're closer
to solving the case of the stabbed clown."
In this case, use this program on your save file (i.e. Save"n".rxdata with "n"=1 to 4 in your main game directory).
If the patch is correctly applied on the save file (i.e. "OK: Patch Done." message displayed), a backup file is created (i.e. Save"n".rxdata.bak) and you can now use the new save file instead. Otherwise, an error is displayed and the save file is not patched.
After the patch has been applied:
- start the game,
- load the concerned save file,
- speak again to the guard near the clock (see screen capture hereafter): the quest can now continue (i.e. identify the guilty woman in the owner's office at the Arena ...).
Caution: ALWAYS make and keep safely a manual BACKUP of your save file before patching it. This program makes minimal checks, and so an error is always possible.
*** EDIT ***
Switched to a modified 64 bits version as the former version is WRONGLY considered as a virus by some "minor" antivirus at Virus Total, and so by the AV system of this web site.
