Unity Crashing : /

Unity Engine

Hello all!
Unity has crashed on me when attempting to move .jpg files from any folder to another, this is nothing out of the ordinary so I’m at a loss…I am able to continue working on the project as is, however I do not know if this is being cause by something I’ve done or if this is by chance a bug within the newest version of unity? I’ve never encountered this before and have moved .jpgs around plenty.

unity Version 4.3.0f4 (e01000627d60)

ISSUE:

Attempting to move, select and or highlight .jpg causes unity to post this error, followed by a forced application exit:

1435746--76697--$errorMessage.jpg

WHAT I’VE TRIED

  • Moving a different .jpg located within a different folder :: Results with the above error message followed by forced application exit
  • Moving other file types :: No errors
  • Moving files manually (through windows services) :: Results in total application failure (e.g. unable to open project at all); manually move files back to previous location corrects this error and allows project to be reopened.
  • Re-saving .jpg files :: This was a last ditch effort…still nothing :confused:

ADDITIONAL NOTES

All of the .jpg files are within the scene and working without problems, it’s only when clicking on the files within the projects folders I run into this…

On a side note the newest release of MonoDevelop seems to be glitchy as well, not to concerned with this at the moment though.

Lucked out, but not without a half heart attack

Unity would not allow me to open project, so did the following:

  • Through windows, renamed project folder

  • Removed known corrupted files

  • Opened with unity

  • WATCHED VERY CLOSELY TO INSTALLATION PROCESS, upon installation failure, removed those files as well

  • Finally able to open project, will need to spend a bit of time recreating lost assets.

…Better than nothing I guess, however still errors out when selecting files within projects window. I am now getting this error as well (assuming because I removed the corrupt file that disallowed me to open the project at all).

ERROR:
Asset ‘Assets/Imported Assets/Images/jpg/Earth/Clouds_10b.jpg’ is in assets but has no assettimestamp…

Will attempt to install backup from awhile back, but not hopeful…
