Hi everyone!
Yesterday i worked on a quit lage max 2010 project. Today it wont open anymore. Also the files from the last days dosnt work. There is no error massage and in the middle botom line of max is written: loading… .But i wait 5 minutes and more and nothing happens.
do you have a trick or idea how i could open my file again?

thx pat

see if the backup files open up.
max use to crash when i saved and exited the program corrupting the file i was working on,
but the backup files where always intact.
for me it was a window problem. had to format and reinstall

Max 2.5 through 2012, win7 64bit.
Quadro 4500
dual Opteron 2378 quad core

Try merging the corrupt file into a new scene. This has sometimes saved me when other methods have failed.

Sometimes merging only certain objects from the corrupt file will only work .

Good luck
