I was able to retrieve some crucial bits from the corrupted scene
with the Journal File and reloading the scene several times, so
not everything is lost. Thanks for the tip Rob, and for the help
everyone.
cheers,

Thanks, I'll need to give it a shot if I don't want to loose a
days work. Seems like all backups are corrupt as well.
The weird thing is I was able to load the last backup scene, and
saved it under a new name. Then started redoing what was lost.
But when reloading the redo scene Softimage crashes again, and
now I can also no longer load any of the backuped scenes I could
retrieve one of just 20 minutes ago. A scene that was fine and
has not been changed is suddenly corrupt...it's voodoo I tell you.
Gonna check it tomorrow, I suspect I need some beer as well ;-)
Have a nice weekend.

in preferences>data management as far as I remember when
I last had this and was helped, it creates a text file
that tells you what models are loading and then on the
next load it skips the ones that it finds bad?
Is that the "Recovery Journal file" ? Do you remember where
softimage writes the text file ?
its a shot in the dark at least
you do realise its friday > 5pm though and this kind of
stuff is *meant* to happen.
I smell a conspiracy ;-)
