File may be truncated

Hello,

working on a client project, last save from yesterday. All is fine, i rebooted once, and now all my files from that project says Error loading network “project1/etcetc”. File may be truncaded.

I am officially in panic,

Thank you

I’m really sorry you’re having this problem. Have you looked for backup copies in the ‘/Backups’ folder alongside your project? Every time you save it should copy the old version into that folder, so hopefully there might be a recent version there.

Otherwise, if you want to send your files to support@derivative.ca we might be able to recover something from them. However, It may be worth it to check the size of the file first though in case they are actually empty.

Thank you Robc. Unfortunately, it appears that all of them are encountering the same error. The size seems pretty decent, around 15 mb. Interestingly, a single copy of a recent crash save worked correctly. I’m not sure if Google Drive is a factor in this issue, as I have other projects on the same drive that are functioning just fine.

Were you able to recover the project from the crash save?

I guess it’s possible that the google drive sync somehow corrupted the file, but it does seem strange it would happen to all of the backups as well.

If you want to share a link to any of those files, we can take a closer look and see what we can recover and if there is any indication of what went wrong.
