I don't think any versions have had save compatibility, none of the recent ones anyway, but almost all of the updates come with a save code to start from the new content.
What Stil996 says in his post is correct - saves have never been compatible across the versions and people should keep that in mind while considering to play future versions; it could change but most likely not. That is why, again as Stil996 refers, that at least 7 out of the last 8 updates (from v0.10.5 up to v0.68.2) have included a preloaded save that may be unlocked to start at the new content.
if you're asking what application can be used to see the assets of the game, I use AssetStudio.
There were some reworks of scenes but generally speaking nothing new was added except the new beginning and a shit ton of NPC's. when was the last time you played?
They do not have DRM.
What has happened in the past few days that this question is all of a sudden a thing and we've had to answer it like 4 times in 48 hours compared to much less than that in the first week of release?
You might want to be more specific in what you are looking for or read the changelog for the past two updates.
don't even get me started on Apple) on windows might be that the assets are streaming and i don't have the protocalls for handling streaming MV4's
Right? My gut reaction is that they only read the first five bullets about the fixes in b from a - thinking that 4.5 months of work were for those fixes. OR that they read too far and think that "This patch contains many different fixes, which remove almost all known bugs. It has no new scenes or new content compared to the previous version." was meant for this version, when it was for v0.85.1 with regard to v0.82.4.
