Files won't open

[bighop]

Has anyone had this problem....I'm building the model plane, I've been saving my work every so often, now the files in the project work space, but the model window will not open.

 

Did I loose all my work? Any ideas what would cause this?

 

I'm using a Mac, not that it matters.

I had this problem once. Try hitting Cmd-W a few times to close the "offscreen" modeling window. Then, try opening the window again.

 

Hope this helps!

I have been experiencing this recently with A:M 12. The Copy/Paste command seems to introduce errors sometimes. At least that is what it seems like at this point.

 

Open your model file in a text editor, Notepad or what ever is available on a Mac, and scroll down. If you see a load of empty bone data holders you are probably experiencing what I am. (Sorry I can't think of the correct term for those 'open/close' statements at the moment). Sometimes A:M seems to get into a loop and just keeps copying these empty statements, adding thousands of lines to your model file. I don't know what causes this to happen but it has been around for several years.

 

The way that I rectify the problem is to highlight all of the empty statements, except one, and delete them. Then save the model file. That seems to do the trick usually.

 

Good luck.
