Hi Roy,
I created this large scene of a futuristic city with hi-rise towers, spaceport,
lake & park under a dome, etc. I would have lost the whole thing (14 days
worth of work) but I had done a backup on it 2 days before, but my system
crashed (so I still had 12 days of work saved. This crash occurred when I
exited TS & saved what I had created in that session.
I learned two (2) valuable lessons from this.
#1 – If your working on a good sized project, ALWAYS back it up before you quit
for the day;
#2 – SAVE your work in TS about every 20 to 30 minutes. If you do too much
work in TS then try to save it, you may crash.
I got totally involved with my scene I was mocking up, working for about 2
hours without saving. Then when I tried to save 2 hours of intense TS work,
the pay back was…"CRASH !"
It situation may differ from what happened with your work, but I just thought
I'd pass along what I learned the hard way.
