Lost 84 pages of a flash and ...

Post by Tiggerly1 »

I had a script back up which I pasted and can see the individual pages on the Visual Tab of Nyx.

However when I go to preview nothing comes up.

Also if I go to the Teases tab and hit open, Nyx drops all my content both media and words.

I had the forethought to back up my scripts and the media I uploaded is still there after I paste the entire script back into the Script tab but Nyx is apparently not saving the tease.

Any ideas?

No I am not a programmer by any stretch, which is why I copied my scripts into a notepad file for back up.

Yeah i had the same problem. Do you have a lot media uploaded?

I wasnt sure why the problem occurred in mine because it hasnt in the past no matter how many pages the tease had. I put it down to the fact that I had a lot more pictures uploaded than in my previous teases.

If the tease is finished, I suggest publishing it and seeing what happens.

(I got around my problem by splitting the tease into 3 parts)

Also (this is kinda obvious) make sure your first page is called start# or else it wont work.

Sorry to hear Nyx is causing you trouble.

Please post the tease ID and I'll take a look. :-)

Yup. I am in the process of breaking it down into smaller portions.

Its wierd. Nyx dropped all the script so I copy/pasted it from the text file and it showed the pages but would not preview any of them.

I had the media (Pictures) up too but then it started giving me error messages when i tried to upload them again to a different tease.

I removed all the media and just started over again. My plan is to break it down to three smaller teases though it would have played much better as one larger unit.

My tips about Nyx:
- If you work in script tab, forget the visual tab. Will bug your work. Start in Visual. Make all what you need there. So, go to script tab and finish your work there, without go back to Visual.

- If you have a large tease, the Preview dont work correctly. You need:
Save your work
close Nyx
close your browser
re-open everything

(cache problem?)

- In fact, dont use the editor in script tab. Copy/past to notepad (or notepad ++) or other. Script Tab lag when you have a large tease.

- Make backups :)
