I was working on my crazy bob walk cycle. I did a save of the scene and right after I saved truespace crashed. I reopened truespace and opened the scene and the scene is now blank and the file is a tiny size. This is a very bad bug. I have lost a lot of work that I can't get back. See attached file.

Hi guy, sorry about the loss. This reply won't help with the bug but may help nevertheless...

I discovered one day that every time you save a scene within trueSpace 7.5x which has exactly the same filename and location as a previously saved scene, the program automatically sends the previously saved scene to Windows Recycle Bin, making it possible to recover previous versions of lost work.

Hope that helps in this case,

Hm. seems like a better idea would be to rename the file to something like:


filename.RsScn.bk, rather than throwing the old one into the recycle bin.


But good find there 3dv.
