Open GSavestate, load your Savestate and click on the VDP-Register. More Registers will appear, click on "Color RAM". You will see a Color-Chart and below, there are the Hex-Values for the Colors. The Background Color is found in the Chart at 0,0 - this is the Color you want to change. The Hex Value is $0000, but you can't search for that in a Hex Editor, because there are too many Zeros in the Savestate.
Instead, look at the Hex-Values for the Colors next to Black (in GSavestate). In my Savestate, its $0CCC. So i searched that in the Hex-Editor and got a Result, that has four Zeros before it. I changed them to "0E0E" (Pink) and gone is the black Background. Now i know, this sounds very complicated, but once you get the hang of it, it's quite easy. If you don't understand this at all, maybe i could make an illustrated Tutorial...
It keeps saying "Wrong File Type!" Why is that? The savestate's suffix is the same as the one specified in the program, but it won't open it.
