Default World won't open - 12-09-2009, 02:15 PM

A student of mine created the attached world in Alice 2.0 on a Mac. It won't open on either 2.0 or 2.2 now. On one attempt to open it I got an error message, but now the open function just returns the user to an empty world, even though the file name is correct in the Window title.

Are you sure that's the right world? The .zip file itself is completely empty except for the starting objects (camera, light, ground). I got it to open all right, but it's basically an empty file, nothing added to it.

Yes, it's the correct file. The file opens to a blank world when we try to open it too. But it is 1.8Mb in size -- there are objects in it. Alice can't seem to find them though.

Yes, but when it's opened, the size shrinks to 371kb. Whatever's in that file, it doesn't stick around when you try to look for it.
