Edited save changes get ignored - How?

So it's a pretty well known thing that if you edit your .dssave file, without jumping through some export and import hoops the game will just say "Yeah cool" and entirely ignore those changes. My question on this though is - From a programming perspective, *how* does it ignore the changes? Does it have some secret backup copy that it refers to in case the .dssave sitting in the Save folder doesn't match what it last saw as the saved game? Just about any other program will actually read the data it's being told to, and process it accordingly.

Realm of Kings review

A little review & my two cents on the Realm of Kings map, made by Graham Shelton.

I played this map up to the first town, Dromnar, and also had a look at it in Siege Editor. I loved parts of it, and hated others. Here we go:

1. What I loved

Is there a mod to auto use potions?

Is there a mod around to make party members drink life and mana potions automatically (once a certain threshold is reached)?

Possible to play solo MP map on PC not on network/internet?

Is it possible to play the DS/LoA multiplayer map solo on a Windows 7 PC that has absolutely no network or internet connection?

I've just downgraded my ancient games machines to Windows 7 Pro without any connection whatsoever to the outside world, expecting to have less troubles than with Win10, and when I try to host a MP game (solo) it shoots me back to the main menu. This for Zonematch (which I didn't expect to work anyway), Internet, and Network. So it seems that DS detects I have no connectivity and disallows playing the MP map.

Unable to select character file in MP

Would someone be able to venture a guess as to why a character file (i.e., [character name].dsparty) is not visible when selecting a character to play in multiplayer mode? I experienced a black screen when playing solo in Utraean Peninsula (Volcanic Caverns). I (stupidly) Alt-TABbed to see something in another app and that's when it went black. After I rebooted, I was no longer able to select my level 55 character.
