*BUMP

Where are the other files for the VX project?

just noticed that you replied today, it must not have notified me of a new post in the topic cause you made an edit to your old post.

If you still need that project file, maybe you can try adding in the missing files from another project.

Also in my previous post, i didn't know as much as I do now.

This happens to me a lot too. I don't know what causes it, but, I make a new project, then slowly move over the script, graphic and audio files from my old one to the new one. It's a temporary fix, but, it works.

You should keep a backup of the project as well.

Sorry, I wasn't much help, was I?
