Question Regarding H.sie Patcher

Auto Rollback works great - except, what happens if you experience a CTD? CTD does not exit via Commander. Are you now rolled back, or not? Does Commander know how to cope with this situation? If you restart Commander, it recognizes that Auto Rollback is enabled, and does not give you the option to manually roll back. If you then restart SH3 from Commander, it overwrites a new copy of the Commander changes, and saves the "old" files - which already contained the Commander changes. Then, when you exit Commander after this session, it "rolls back" - to the changed files.

So Auto Rollback is a fine idea, as long as you never experience an in-game CTD. A while back, I got myself wrapped around the axle this way. Had to do a complete reinstall. (I know, I know! I should have saved a snapshot! Din't.) Now I use Manual Rollback and always roll back before exiting Commander. If anyone knows a way to avoid this, I'd love to hear about it.
