I tried to reinstalling the program but error continues, I installed BTB in another pc and the error continues, I didn't edit recent xpack packs or edit system files.

Pitty!! I need to recover my project :frown::frown::frown:
 
Ok!, you're right, there are some files into the temporary files folder,

a3ghtdtx.ohv
oremvhd5.pys
q53nvfux.sjp
tior3ovh.14y
v3nsbg5f.3zq

So... how can I know what's the correct file and what extension I must to use... I see in my Project folder some project's files:

track.xml
exportsettings.xml
venue.bin
venue.xml

What's the file that the game reads to open and save the project? the temporary files have sizes like 1kb 2kb too small doesn't?... thank you!!!
 
venue.bin is the file you need to replace, so look for files in the Temporary Files folder that are the same size as your track's venue.bin file. The Temporary Files folder only keeps them for a certain time, so if you've not worked on your track for a couple of weeks they might have gone. :frown:

Also I think if you have Undo switched off in BTB then the backup files don't get saved.
 
Very early on when I was building my track I had a similar loss. From then on If I spent a day working on the track I would regularly back up with different names. For example today being the 24th of April I would save as 24041001 then each time I went into rFactor to see the changes I would create a new save 24041002 and so on. By the end of the day I'd typically have about 8 seperate saves.
 
Do you remember what xpacks you had used in the project? I had this kind of errors when I was manually removing xpacks from project folder (and they were "in use"). I mean maybe you got some bad block on your HDD and one of them is broken (try also to check if all of them are there in your project folder). Maybe you can try to copy whole think withing "My Projects" folder and overwrite xpacks - copy them once again from "XPacks" folder. Also, do the deep scandisc of your HDD. I'm guessing, sorry, but you can try that.
Have good luck anyway!
 
Thanks everbody for your help! I had not modified xpacks or similar so that was not the problem... I got it righ now!! I use the temporary files to replace the Venue.bin file, I checked it for modification date and the last two files were damaged, but the third file was ok, so I could recover my project with a few of lost changes.....

Thank you so much! I feel alive again hehehe!! :cool:

p.d. What's the difference about licensed and not licensed member?
