I once lost a whole shift while working at a product viz company.

The file got corrupted 3 saves back and the only viable version was from 2 days ago when I only started modeling.

lol 2 hours

2h is a cheap price to be taught that lesson Op. Take the L.

[Anonymous No.726862]

that's actually my problem too
when I'm working with code the solution is easy: git
when I'm working with assets the solution is: ???
heard that large companies use perforce but that monster is obviously not for me, the individual faggot who doesn't want to lose his shit again

Just make a new backup every time you do something important.

[Anonymous No.726901]

>>726695
please OP, tell us what software doesn't make automatic backups?

[Anonymous No.726916]

Lost an entire project, over a week of data and time. I never saved copies or remet scenes so now I always make two extra copies, one a save file and one a remet once I'm done for the day. You can't be too certain.

Incremental saves. And since you program as well, maybe you could make a global incremental backup software. Maybe upload it on git, too.

Considering that is looks completely symmetrical, probably, but people work at different paces - and it could have been further on than the image shown. Not quite sure how a sword can take too long though, unless it has some intricate geometry that would be a bitch to uv well?
