Wow, maybe you should save more often. Oh well, that is why Alice has backups. Go to the folder you saved the world on and you should see another folder with your work on it. Alice backs it up every hour or so I think, so you would have to redo any work that you did within the time the backup was made and the time you finished.

If the backup is corrupted, then I don't know what to say for you, sorry.

K, just make sure this time you try to see what caused the error, and try to avoid it before saving again.

EDIT: Woot, this is my 111th post

I had the exact same problem, that would happen because if you put a sound file in that alice can not play it freezes up and that could close the program easy. for my modern warfare game, i lost a lot of work, so i had to post a back up. I know how you feel, What i kept doing is saving it to different locatoins on the computer like my documents. Then delete the others and it should work for a while, then in mabye a week, save it in another spot

This has happened to me before so i know how to fix it
