Maya problem. my last 5 files were all fatal error saves... How do I solve this? :(
:( I don't know what is going on here. But the last 5 saves I've had were all saved with errors. I probably lost 2 days of work. When I open the file, it just gives me the fatal error message.

And yes, it had crashed before, but I was… -

Well that's quite the scene. When Maya hard crashes like this, there's also crashlogs in your user\appdata\local\temp folder. I don't know what to say about this crashlog other than it *really* didn't like something you did. Booleans maybe? I can't tell by glancing at your scene file what exactly your history and mesh…
