Maya 2018 - 60 last saves corrupted every time I reopen project

Anonymous — Wed, 29 Jan 2020 09:19:36 GMT

Hi !

I'm currently facing a huge issue.

I'm working on a 3D project with a spaceship and everything was working fine until 2 days ago.

Now (it started around my 576th save of the project), I don't know why this happens, I sometimes end with my 30 last saves going from 11mo to 6mo and when I open them I see I lost all my lights, cams, shaders and half of the meshes is invisible and got 2, 3 or even 4 shapes assigned to them.

I have to manually go into each mesh and uncheck "Intermediate object" in the new shapes that randomly spawned to get the mesh visible, and deleting all the other shapes inside.

I don't get why it has been doing this to me 3 times, I lost in total 120 saves and hours of work.

I'm going to reinstall Maya reset it's preferences but it's the first and only project that gives me bug like this, so I put my project here : https://we.tl/t-0EPreuCZDJ

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi!

Recovered scene attached.

I can't way why this happens, i did a few quick tests and here it works fine.

I recommend to delete history if not needed anymore and to clean up the scene.

I can only see about 50 objects in Viewport, but there are about 1500 nodes in your scene.

If you have problems to clean up your scene, then simply export your ship and import it into a new scene.

Thanks a lot I'll check that tomorrow !

Can you please tell me what you did btw ? Because I deleted history when I tried to recover the scene but it didn't work, neither deleting all the other shapes than the main one of each mesh. Thanks in advance
