Finally got around to this, sorry for the wait. The file is indeed corrupt, it claims it should have a single object, but there are no objects whatsoever. Is it true that the file was only supposed to contain a single object?

It is not clear to me how this could have happened, though if you know how to repeat this I'd love to know as well. This is obviously quite a serious bug.

The file you posted does not contain any additional information which might be harvested manually.

Hi David,

Thank you for your reply. The file contains 5 or 6 meshes (see attached .3dm file) No additional information just a mesh component with the internalised values. I am going to let you know as soon as I find repeating pattern into this... and hopefully find a way around this. I should try reinstalling GH as well.

Thanks again,

Marios

I doubt reinstalling will fix anything. If it works at all it's installed correctly in all likelihood.

Hi, David and Marios,

David I was going to send you an email, but I saw this thread ... I am getting the same error.  I was trying to open GH files having components with internalized curves, not meshes, but I have a sneaking suspicion that it's the same problem. If I save the GH file, then try to reopen it, it always gets the error Marios shows above.  The file still opens, but the Crv parameter with the internalized data is gone.

For even more fun and excitement, if I instead try to select the Crv parameter and make a cluster, it crashes all of Rhino.  I sent that to McNeel with the Rhino error reporting tool, but I've also included the three files here.

I zipped all the files together; let me know if you can't access something.

Now, I'm one of those crazy Mac people, and McNeel already sent the standard "you shouldn't use Rhino in Parallels" reply, but I'm guessing this problem has nothing to do with lack of 3D acceleration.  I've been working on a giant GH script and some involved Rhino files for months, in Parallels, with no problem.

More info:  Before this error, I saved another script with a cluster containing an earlier version of my internalized number tags, and I can still open that script and use it.  I included the 3dm and gh files for this; they are the ones named, jokingly, "elegant ..."

Between saving the "elegant" version, which worked, and the newer GH file that generates the error, there were some updates that Windows 7 installed, so I wonder if that might have something to do with it.  If you want some Windows system files pertaining to this, let me know.  I've included a screenshot of the latest Windows updates.

Other than the Win7 updates, I can't think of anything else that's changed.  Before this error began I already had all the latest versions of Rhino 4, GH, Parallels, and Mac OS X Lion.

Thanks for all your work. I love GH.
