Try first, worry after you run into trouble. Worst case you'll have to rebirth once or twice. Don't delete the old version until you have a working update with save working and you can do anything.
From what I saw I can load it fine but the minor issue I run into is whenever I use the Basic Needs command I get every option possible (though only the ones that can be used in the moment work, the rest give a "conditions not met" message).
Man I really would hate to restart.
EDIT: Well, I restarted anyway but it din't fix the menu issue. Bah.
EDIT2: Well it's also an issue in a new game from a fresh install of 0.7.0.3 so I'm an idiot and it had nothing to do with my save being glitched. Lol.
On that note I really wish you didn't have to go through the birthing process every time you wanted to start as a different race, it should be unlockable permanently.
