Does maya just randomly disappear on anyone else? I was making good progress then. But then this about the 3rd time this has happened in the last few days. I only have myself to blame.

Ctrl + S!

Artist's best friend.

to be honestly I can't believe I was so stupid.

I started and worked a good couple of hours without making one save.

lost it all.

Do check on the Task Manager if it´s still running. If it is, you could have a chance of finding the software by ALT-Tab cycling the windows. I had Maya do that game on me for several times.

I have had maya crash on me 2 times, in my life. I reckon that is quite good atleast compared to my experience with 3DSMAX which, on average, randomly crashes 2-3 times / day.

I totally agree with you fredriksson, Maya's stability is far better than 3DS Max. One of the many reasons which made me switch to Maya.

Even more weirder, you geometry just dissapearing, buy the image planes dont ?

Mine only freezes when i do something HUGE! Mabey its your system... Got a Mac?

not my geometry. maya itself.

Yes. Often. I blame my crap video card as my CPU and RAM is more than sufficient. It won't kick up a fuss, just quietly disappear with all my work. :D

Ctrl + S!,take it easy
