Damn, that sample sounds pretty good, too.


...but maybe that's not what you wanted to hear. ;)

(Might I ask what you used to make the bassline? :D )
Digital Aura
Seriously...this sounds REALLY GOOD!
So do you have at least most of the layout in your mind? Can you salvage the smaller file to get some of this goin' again!?
Man...thats harsh. SOUNDS GOO
D!:sadgreen:

Oh crap.. That has happened to me once or twice aswell! Luckily I had a backup on my external HD. First time I ever backed it up, and boy was I glad I did. That sample is damn nice man. Hopefully you'll get it even better this time around! :)
Rob
So you made that much, and didn't even save it ONCE?

And you said it got deleted? I've never heard that one before:conf: Usually files get corrupted etc, and are some what recoverable on other systems. But DELETED?!?!??! :nervous:

In fruity there is "Save new version" which makes a copy and appends the next increment number to the file name. Do that at least once a session, so you'll never lose too much in case FL corrupts the file.

Your sample sounds awesome. :eyes: It's a shame fl deleted your project.
ronk
glad y'all like the sample....I'll try to do my best to reproduce the same thing.
but I think some of you didn't understand me...when I finished my changes to the project I pressed the save button and then fl said "could not save to the file, a plugin may cause the error" something like that, and then it overwritten my good project file with some file (I don't even know why, or what that file is) that I can't open with fl (it gives me an error every time I try to open it).

DJ_Ikronix: the bass, it was a Sytrus..lucky me rememeber how I did it :)

Digital Aura: thanks man, I remember most of the PATTERNS but I barely remember any of the effects on each channel...that's kinda .

Beyer: thanks man :)

Rob: I meant it got corrupted :) which means my good project got deleted (fl left me with some file...^^)

gcrasher: didn't know that...I'll use that option now every time.

Timothy: thanks dude!
Rob
So you can or can't open it? If you give it to someone on these forums, I'm sure they'll be able to open it with their version of FL, and salvage some sections of the track.

I don't think that will be possible, as FL overwrites the header of the file - in prep for overwriting the code within it. Then the error occurs, and there's still nothing written. So basically the file is empty, and there's nothing to extract out from it.

Don't know exactly, but I remember reading on some other forum a while ago that someone encountered the same problem. Someone told him that FL automatically makes backups of some kind somewhere to the Documents and Settings folder. Try looking there for some folder named after FL or Image Line. As I said I don't remember well. Hope this helps.

P.S. I'll try and look up that post again.

Wow, that sample sounds better than anything I've ever made in my life. =oD
a.m.
Go to your FL folder in program files. Open Trash Bin folder. Open Backup.flp... This is a backup of your last successful save (FL does this automatically.) If you haven't saved anything since the corruption, this should be your song.
