Hi pistitom, welcome to wings3d community.

yeah, that file with .wings~ extension is your file before it be replaced by a save operation. I suggest you make a manual copy (backup) of the file before this automatic backup can be messed up by some test/operation.

A 6MB file seams to not be so huge. Are you using 32bit or 64bit version?

Thinking about a memory issue, I don't think you would be able to get a dump file (when I tried "explode" the available memory before I never got it, only a message in the Erlang console). You can follow the instructions in this post to make the Erlang console visible.

{wings_we,do_renumber,3,[{file,"wings_we.erl"},{line,677}]},

99% of the times we see this log starting with a reference to do_renumber is because there is inconsistencies in the mesh - usually caused for "improper" operations. In this case, you probably can fix it by using the command Cleanup in the body [b] mode - after select the whole object. Try this and save your project.
