Save file size too big ?

[pistitom]

Thank You for Your help, I actually managed to somehow partially solve the problem, I disabled the autosave, and replaced the wings_file.beam with the one provided here. It's working fine now, though it always gets non-responsive when I save, but luckily only for a few seconds. More often the erl.exe still crashes when I load this one specific project. It's way bigger than others, that's why I thought it had sg. to do with size. There are no inconsistencies with the mesh ( well, I assume :-) ) , because I haven't got any save-related crashes anymore, I guess if that were the issue, it should've kept on crashing with error log. I'm using the 64 bit version, windows 7.
Thank You again.
Ps. Am I right assuming that wings 3d is capable of everything ( strictly modelling , no textures etc.) other programs are? It's basically unknown compared to the "big guys" ...
