Question about switching stages around

I really don't like Pokemon Stadium 1 being demoted to an alternate stage, so I want to move it back to having its own stage slot on the select screen. I switched it with the HD Saffron city stage by swapping their file names (STGDXPSTADIUM_Z.pac <--> STGSTADIUM.pac) and I did the same filename swap with the .rel files, but the game crashes when I select either PS2 or PS1. Should I just leave the .rel filenames the way they are and just switch the .pac filenames? Will there be any adverse effects if I leave the .rel files the same?

PS1's original slot is "STGDXPSTADIUM" which ps2 and ps1 both already occupy respectively.
You're getting freezes because simply renaming the rels doesn't work. You'd need to reconvert them for the new slots.
PS1 would need a rel meant for PS2 and Saffron (which uses Spear Pillar as a base) would need a rel for PS1.
You can convert rels on this site here: http://lakora.us/rel/

Alright, I got PS1 working in the PS2 slot where Saffron HD was, but Saffron HD sitting in the PS1 slot crashes. On the converter page, I selected Spear Pillar in the base rel side, and Pokemon Stadium in the To Replace side. I wanted Saffron HD in the PS1 alternate stage slot, so I renamed it to st_dxpstadium_Z.rel, which I think made it crash. The converter doesn't account for alternate stages, so how would I fix this? Or can PS2 and Saffron not exist in the same slot?

The "_Z" isn't something that affects the way .rels are converted. It just tells the Alternate Stage Loader to look for a particular file.

You actually need to convert a Final Destination .rel. Saffron used to use spear pillar as a base, but the HD version uses final destination, so that was misinformation on my part.
