I just wanna throw something right now I need to let off steam as for the second night in sucession Mamba has trashed a load of my work!
I am anal about saving as in the past its been so unpredicatable that it you gotta get your head tested if you dont save regularly. But on friday I was working on a show (show A) and I saved it before replacing scenes spread across four tracks - just to see if it was any good and decided not. I reloaded the saved show to get an entirely empty show bar the scenes that I had cut.
Now I thought maybe i did something dumb and I tried to emulate this problem but couldnt so decided to do something else. Last thing I did before shutting down was play another show (show B) I had finished earlier in the week - it played great.
I have just loaded that same show and one of the framelists (frames B) now bears no resemblance to the one I had on Friday. AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHH
F**K F**K F**K F**K F**K F**K F**K F**K
The strange thing is the framest that I was using for show A has now also turned into the same frames B framelist - they are clones of each other . This is despite them having differnt names and being saved in different folders.
Am I going mad?
Fortunately I have a copy of frames B , though a couple of revisons old, on another pc that I can use but its still work I dont wanna do again and Im not confident it wont happen again.
I think I will go and sit in a corner and cry.
