Apply 2024 Matsuribayashi Ch.8 Crash Fixes
- The vanilla Matsuribayashi Ch.8 game received an update at the start of 2024 to fix crashes when loading saves with certain effects active, see here for more details: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1243670/discussions/0/4042609216213464008/?tscn=1704097237
- This fix just copies those fixes into our mod
- See here for more details 07th-mod/higurashi-assembly#120
- SAVE GAME COMPATIBILITY: This DLL is backwards compatible with old saves. However, the old DLL is not forward-compatible with the new one. Basically you won't be able to use old versions of the mod to load any saves you make (I've tested this and after making some 'new' saves, the old game won't start up and will give you a warning message about "unknown save version")
