Hi all,
I am having a problem with Vue 8 Studio crashing when I use the spherical terrain features (located in Options) to make planet scenes.  Frequently it crashes when I'm trying to tell it the radius I wish to use when I'm beginning a new file.

However, more serious (to me anyway) is that I've now had two spherical terrain scenes crash AFTER I've exited the Options menus and done work on them.  One of these files had several hours worth of effort put into it and I would GREATLY like to recover this file.

Once these files have crashed in this manner I cannot open them again.  Vue will start to load the file and then I get the message "Vue 8 Application quit unexpectedly" every time that I try to reopen it.  Usually, at this point, I have to kill Vue from within the Task Manager as it is not responding.  This also applies to the .bak and recovery files that I've tried to open for these files.

My system specs are:
Vista 32 Home Premium
2.66 Ghz Core Dual CPU
4 Gig ram (yes, I know that Vista doesn't see all of it)
Nvidia GeForce 9500 GT 1024 MB
350 Gig hard drive

If anyone could either provide me with any suggestions as to how I could possibly open/recover this file, or help me to stop Vue from crashing with the spherical terrain option, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks!
