Mudbox file cockup.

Mjello..

On opening a mud file, mudbox gives me a "Not enough memory" error. Which really sucks because it has my last 2 days of work in it.

So my question is, is there any way to salvage the file, and perhaps, manually turn the subdiv levels down to 1 on all objects so I can open this beast? I tried shutting down all other programs than mudbox and even did multiple reboots.

Getting pretty desperate here. Using the 2009 version.

You could open mudbox then go file>import and select the file. Guess it will probably say the same thing but you never know!

Sorry not much help, hope you can get it open.

Hold on, imma try that, cleaning up my C drive as well, to give the ram some breathing room.

EDIT: Same message when i try that.

Could try send me the file (if you dont mind sending a stranger your work!) and I could see if I can open + save at a lower res. Or export out some obj's at least. Havent got any other ideas sorry!

hmmm sounds like you might have a corrupt file. I've had this happen to me before, lost half a days work, that was in Mud 2009. I think some of the service packs were meant to address this. Haven't had it since in 2010.

Thanks massbot, but i tried it out at the office monster pc, same story.

I managed to finish it up from some obj's, but it would be nice with a medium res for tracing when I am making the lowpoly geo.

Oh well, upgrade time, i guess!
