Aww! I am sorry to hear about the loss of the .rpg file :(

Data loss is always a bad feeling.

And what do you post on the engine every time we shut down?

"Don't forget to keep back-up copies of your work! You never know when an unknown bug or a hard drive crash or a little brother might delete your files"

Of course who reads those messages.... Oy!

And yes its hard which is why we not restarting for a while. We need some time to morn and get back into it. But we did save the OLD stuff. So we are not totally without. So Caits not dead, just in intensive care.

One handy trick is to email the game to yourself every so often. This works especially well if you're using more than one computer, since you'll need to transfer the file anyway.

That or dropbox. It automatically archives the last 10ish versions of a file, so if it somehow gets nuked or corrupt you can always revert.

That sucks, though. My sympathies.
