WC1Sav savegame.wld load error

I seem to have run into a problem with the WCSav program. Every time I use, it says it is unable to load the savegame.wld file. I am using dosbox to run it, and the exe is located inside the GAMEDAT directory under WING1.

I am playing SM1 and Spirit has gone KIA over a little overrun problem. What can I do to correct this issue. It would be great if I just knew which hex bytes to change to restore the pilot, as I could change those easily.
 
Decided to ignore it. Finished SM1, transferred last mission save to SM2, played two missions, and now Major Chen is KIA.

Tried the wcsav program on crusade.wld and it doesn't work:

Fatal Error: Unable to open Crusade.wld

Tried moving the program outside of gamedat, tried also moving the savegame file outside of gamedat...no luck...even tried moving both program and savegame file outside of the wing directory....no luck.

Its like the program can't read the file. Even tried the original savegame file (with no save games) and it couldn't open it.

Edit: nevermind, Bossman was supposed to die anyway, looks like the game KIA'd him earlier than it should have is all
 
Oh man....WC2sav doesn't work with Wing Commander 2.

I follow the directions, use dosbox and everything but it is unable to read it.

Btw, I am using WC2 (hard-drive c/p method for the installation) from the deluxe CD package (the one that also has syndicate plus and Ultima 8 on it).

Edit: Smacks head, While it doesn't work in dosbox, the program will work natively in WinXP..."why didn't I think of this before"
