World Editor Broken ?

[MissD]

So I got this weird bug, everything used to work, I haven't changed anything, it just stopped working from one day to the other.

 

I can load in rooms on the world editor, change the room etc. etc. 

When I re-enter, no matter what I do, I will get back to my old room.

I can add new objects in, but I cannot delete them or change them after the rooms has been saved.

 

First I tried changing the proxy.

So I tried reinstalling the game, that didn't work. 

So I tried reinstalling the game and running Gizmo's tool, that didn't work.

So then I tried to Uninstall, reboot, use Gizmo's tool, reboot, install 3DX, reboot, then lunch the game, letting it update and finally reboot again. 

That didn't help either, so I'm lost on what to do now.

 

Does anyone have the same issue or is it just me ? 

Or does somebody have another idea on how to solve this ? 

[MissD]

Here is an example of my problem..

The pink circle was added earlier, to see if I could save new objects to my room, and I can, but can't delete them again

Looks like the old bug when you were opening a rool, it was empty... and when you left, room was lost 'there was no save"!

I know that it is back. But I am not sure if it server side (corrupted profile) or client side (your brandwidth)

[MissD]

Thanks MeiLing, I don't have any other problems other than that one, so I guess my profile is corrupted somehow

I get that a lot.What I do is load the room I have saved. Every now and then I save the room and try to remember to save before i log off. Once I log back on I reload the room rather than letting the game load the version it has, I load the version I saved. The rooms are saved to your computer, so unless the room file is corrupt by having an item that is zero, well then what i do should work for you.  

[MissD]

Thanks Rob, I tried loading in every world file I have in, it still goes back to the one saved by the game 

[Rob.]

That is very strange. Wait is that download able house?

[MissD]

It is strange, and yes, you can find it on the forums 

[Rob.]

maybe you can not alter the file..

[MissD]

I see what you're saying, but I have modified this room for months, making it personal, since I don't have the skill nor the patience to build amazing stuff like you 

It just stopped working one day to the other, for no apparent reason 

[MeiLing]

Have you try :

 

Clear all props

and then

Load the last file

Im not sure what is going on here, but I will share some things Ive noticed.

There are 2 versions of the room, first is the .world file in the 3DX directory, and the second is a copy of that file is made when editiing or hosting the room. There is definately a glitch sometimes where entering the room after editing doesnt show up the changes.

So now I always save to file, overwriting the old one each time I do more work, or sometimes after a set amount of time just to be safe. Since doing this, Ive never had any problems or errors.

Another thing to check is, where the .world file is located, windows being windows, if its not in the right place, it will not allow changes to the file.

I tried that, still no luck

It saves to the file, whenever I load it back in the editor, but as soon as I enter my room, it goes back to the way it was, even clearing all props, loading in another room, nothing will allow me to make changes, however I am allowed to add new objects to the room, but once they are loaded in, I cannot change or edit them in any way 

 

It's just really strange

I have had same prob for 3 weeks now, tried everything like you have described and others suggested,also tried moving files location, and too like you i have many diff rooms which i can load all of which revert back to previous saved room, i can load rooms in editor, make changes and save them, but always when i go back to room its the one saved from 3 weeks ago, also emailed support 2 weeks ago and the said looking into it, but never heard back, hoping new update is only chance of fixing it

[Erkan]

I thinking you need first load default room and later re enter again your edit room.

You need first load default world and later reset room.

I thinking for your problem fix this

 All of this started for me when you gave me the BETA. when I renewed my subscription. I cannot save my edits.  They save to my desk top though but will not reload. I understand 3D animation.  I Work in Autodesk Maya and Pixologic ZBrush. SO I UNDERSTAND IMPORTING to a new fresh space. I did not ask to have the BETA..., and I think you were in such a hurry ti get it out you did not test it enough.  I do not use 3rd party .dlls so that's not the problem. I have an H.P. Omen which has more than enough ram to handle this game.

  They are more than a few professional animators here whose help would improve this site immensely.  I can, if I knew the file type they use here, (ie. .OBJ .MB etc.),  for the builds could do them without a GAZILLION parts which makes the files heavy in the server and causes glitches and crashes and other problems.  But, you guys refused my help, I was gonna do it for free because I really like the site and have made many friends here. I was told no 3rd party poses. ALL your MODELS come FROM Maya, 3dsm, Poser, etc.  so how is THAT 3rd party?  I WORK  with the SOFTWARE that CREATES these models and can make some fantastic builds.

  Yes this IS a SEX site, But sex without IMAGINATION is Boring.

This started for me 2 day ago can't make new stuff or delete old stuff no matter what I do or try. I even uninstall the game and all files and reinstalled it is still happening.

[AlexaDarkness]

So here is a question... if you were part way through designing your room, when you go struck by this bug..  not being able to load a new room design, effectively renders your room unuseable... Right?

[Leonato]

OK I fixed mine the problem was the antivirus was closing the ports to download stiff into the game you got to tell your antivirus the game is safe and that might help you did me.

[MissD]

So just an update, I've spend some time with bitdefenders engineers, since the problem was caused by them.

They did release an update a while ago and the problem no longer occur for me 

[Jets]

yeah I got bitdefender too.... what did you ask them cos I have still got this problem?

[xMaceyx]

Suffered the same issue, same antivirus,  so would be interested to know also. 3dx and the file I wanted to load were both in the safe zone to allow, but it still would not load. I ended up getting so frustrated i uninstalled my antivirus just so I could load my new room, now i am having just as many issues trying to reinstall the antivirus.
