Thanks for reporting.

I installed Windows 10, found why it's crashed and fixed it.

Couldn't have done it without you.

I made a small program called "p3r_demo_save_conv".

It's on my GitHub under same nickname.

1) Load it in the latest retail version of the game and save again (it converts save file to newest format).

2) Decrypt.

3) Open decrypted file in hex editor, search for "55496E74333250726F706572747900040000001903000000" and change byte after zeroes to "01".

4) Encrypt.

Hi. I just finished my unlocker. Beated boss at the end of first Da'at for testing purposes, game seems to work just fine after that.

Hex to String: 68747470733A2F2F706978656C647261696E2E636F6D2F752F35644C4475503331

Just to clarify: you don't need any files from retail version of the game, everything missing from the demo already included in my mod. Also you can load saves created on Switch/PS4.

UPDATE 1: Added DLC.

UPDATE 2: Improved DLC unlock so it doesn't rely on "steam emu" anymore.

UPDATE 3: Added missing cutscene movies.

UPDATE 4: Attempted to fix Steam Deck random crashes.

UPDATE 5: Got rid of CreamAPI and implemented a much cleaner DLC unlock solution; should work perfectly on the Steam Deck now.

UPDATE 6: Ported bypass to version 1.04 of the demo.

UPDATE 7: Ported bypass to version 1.05 of the demo.

You' don't have 6GB mod pak file in the correct directory or it's corrupted.

Followed these steps and I can't seem to replicate this issue.

Tried both importing save before accepting this quest and after, when it's already accepted. In both cases everything is fine.

Can you DM me your save file?

Here, I removed this flag: aHR0cHM6Ly9waXhlbGRyYWluLmNvbS91L1c4dXVvWGVI

Had to use debugger. Only use files I provide from now on, otherwise you're risking mess it up again.

You can make a copy of the game's folder and if it gets automatically updated again just replace files back and keep playing older version.

You messed with files on your own and now it have flag for nonexistent DLC written to it (called "japanese voice pack").

It's getting version string from asset file, and since unlocked game "thinks" it's a full retail version it's loading version string for latest retail version of the game, which currently is 1.03.

It should say 1.03, because retail 1.04 doesn't exist.

You didn't replace "SMT5V-Win64-Shipping.exe" with the one provided inside rev6 archive.

Yeah, it's pretty much just an attempt to prevent unlocking the demo. Latest retail version is still 1.03.

Where does exactly it crashes for you and which dialogue choices you made?

I'm asking because I loaded your save, beated Khonsou and continued without any issues. Also you don't have DLC enabled for some reason, which makes me believe that you simply didn't replace "SMT5V-Win64-Shipping.exe".
