So, to summarise: Pre-crashed Poser installation would save and load all scenes. Re-installed Poser will load all scenes, and save all but one. Inevitable conclusion? That scene got stuffed up somehow when your computer crashed. There's a minor possibility that there's something wrong with your new Poser installation, but it's unlikely; Occam's Razor suggests we adopt the simplest explanation. So... Delete the clothing figure, and try to save the scene then. If that works, reload the clothing from the CR2 which you saved. You know enough about Poser to have tried that already, and I know you know that, and you know that I know that you know... It's just that you didn't mention that step. You could try deleting things from a copy of that PZ3, until the damn thing does save. If you get down to an empty scene and it still doesn't work, sorry, you're doomed. If that doesn't work, you're reduced to picking through the PZ3 file with an editor, looking for errors. A thankless task. :( It's usually better to start again. Disheartening, but I find the new version usually comes out better in the end.
