LDPatternCreator - Primitives not saved - Gerald Lasser - 2015-03-26

I came across the following issue while authoring the Helicarrier stickers. The large '64' sticker has lost of bolts which are best done with primitives and this amound to roughly 200 to be used. Now I worked on the file for a few days on and of, saved/quite LDPC multiple times and it always saved the primitives.

For some unknown reason it is not saving the primitives anymore, when I open the files, the primitives are converted to triangles...

Has anyone experienced this?

I think I did see that at least once, but since I couldn't reproduce I have not reported the problem...

I had the same problem in the past. I don't know what happened there.
I imported the original surface, reworked it with prims and less t-junctions and tried to export it. Finally I added the prims by myself in LDDP :-(
But I don't know what happened...

I think I finally need to go the LDDP way as well. I stripped now the converted Prims and the file shurnk to 25% of the original...

Also I think Nils should make it a feature to select multiple Prims at once. :-)

There will be a 1.6.0 release which hopefully fixes these issues.
