Tonight while working on my game, i ran the clean dso.bat like I often do then ran my executable which launches my game with the TGB interface. This time ALL of my images are gone, all of the particles i made are being loaded however none of my images or other information are present. I suppose I can reload all of my images into TGB however I don't know all of the names I gave them. If anyone has recovered from this please let me know how.

I am using TGB RC1


Thank you for your time,
Jordan Hirsh

I haven't started using TGB yet, but the same bat file deletes all the precompile resources from Torque in TGE. I would suggest you have moved your original assets during development away from where they were, and so the program cannot access them now the DSO have been deleted and so cannot rebuild them. I think if you put them back where they were, the program probably has links to rebuild them.

Jordan, I know there is a problem with datablocks.cs getting munged somehow. If you look at your datablocks.cs file and your imageMaps are not there, that could be what your are experiencing. I'm not sure why it happens, but it has happened to me several times. I keep source revision copies of the datablocks.cs during development since I noticed the problem.

Rodney and Andy thank you for the replies, it seems that my datablocks.cs was some how corrupted or just cleared. I have alot of images this will take me some time to get back up and running but now at least i know i need to back up my datablocks.cs and know where to go from here.

Thank you for the assistance

btw is this listed in the bug reports?

Yep, I've posted it and Adam asked about it this morning, I'm trying to gather some information about "when" this happens, so if you can please post your experience also ...
