What do you mean "test version"?
I have yet to see a version that couldn't save, which version of XSI are you using?

Are you using XSI ModTool 4.2 ? Why?
Mod Tool 4.2 is capable of saving after you register it and you don't have to pay anything but at this point I don't think the registering process for this relic still works. Try registering it or go and get yourself a more up to date version which you'll probably need to and should do anyway.

Confirmed notes:
Registration process no longer works which means you can't activate saving
File>Export>XSI is now the only way to get content out of this version

If you are just going from one version to another higher version of XSI the .scn files are still compatable you do not need to save them as .XSI

If you can no longer register (and consequently no longer save to produce a .scn file), then the export -> XSI is the only available option.
