Sure. But Autodesk made a clever move with Max. There is the option to save in an older format. So it'd be not a big deal, that if I want to save a scene for 2012, all geometries, that uses some new features are frozen, and saved in the older format. It could be a real life saver sometimes.

It's not "dangerous", but with every version of XSI you can never open new scenes in old versions. It's always been this way for as long as I remember.

I had Species rig in the scene, but it was working just fine, yet it removed it. I also had installed Move Normal prior to the disaster, so I removed it also. The scene was not opening any on our computers. I tend to believe what our artists say, SI 2013 line is cursed...they returned to 2012 SAP, and I am the sole 2013 user...

Try unloading any reference models using the scntoc file. That has sometimes helped to narrow down the problem for me.

If the scene is simple there may be some data you can recover.
