So, I'm back using the APCD

It's amazing what grief, despair and boredom will drive a person to.

It's also amazing how many APCD processes and APCD glitches one forgets over time by not opening the designer.

For instance, taking 15 minutes trying to create a seam blend before remembering I also needed a path mapping to make it work.

Or tediously painting in vertices for an hour and a half only to lose the lot due to a crash upon the final 'save as' after only using the save option during the session.

Sometimes it feels fun again, other times it reminds me just why I gave it up.

Luckily, there is always alcohol.

I've lost track of the number of times with computers where I have said to myself "I used to know how to do this".

I swear it is not a seniors moment!

Hi ya Todd...!!!!!!!

I have found that just doing a "save" and then copying that file to a backup folder and and renaming it with a -1 at the end and so on. Then I have multiple backups to go back to if needed. I save every 5-10 minutes.

Glad to see you back my Friend...... :clapping:

Long live alcohol....... :notworthy:
