I have a following problem.

Once I run toolset and open an area from my module it's everything fine but I can't see placeables/effects (some rocks/some waterfall animations etc.) which are placed all over this area. First thing I checked was Filter option but everything is set to Show. There is a way to make them visible by using menu File->Verify module... (this opens a new window with the verified area in which everything is visible) but this is rather annoying and there is a probability of crashing the toolset (Well I get toolset crash approximately once per 20minutes of working and nothing can be done about it :) ).

Will be gratefull for solution/ideas.

Have you changed your Options to AutoSave=False? (That might help with your 20m crash routines). The other issues may actually be related to that or may be due to not having baked in the items prior to crash (which is still possibly related to that.)

I don't think autosave is making crashes cuz they occur mostly when opening areas / modules (sometimes it opens right away, sometimes it crashes, sometimes it keeps loading forever, it occurs while opening the same module so it's not problem with areas/modules).

Anyway I can't tell you if that was issue with unbaked are (I baked them so I think it wasn't) cause I've just opened an area and I can see the placeables. I don't know if I should be happy or even more pissed right now :D.

It sounds to me like your module is corrupted. You might be able to export the affected areas into a new module and see if they are ok there. Then reimport them.



You should have autosave turned off. Autosave can corrupt modules without you knowing it until you try to open them. Corruption can occur without crashing.



Some modders also swear by working in directory mode rather than saving as module files. The primary claim is that this reduces corruption when crashes do occur when saving.



Personally I always work in module mode and just keep multiple copies of my modules at different stages.
