Title: Zombie Lincoln has a problem
Post by: Sticky on May 17, 2011, 11:39:40 AM
Zombie Lincoln has a problem.  His computer crashed (again).  This usually happens a few times a year.

Fortunately, all of his animations and art are saved on a separate drive.  Unfortunately, something got bungled up this time and everything got wiped.  Almost every piece of artwork and every animation he's ever made is now gone.

He's a little distraught right now, although he'd never actually admit it.

I'm going to start combing these threads to see how much of his art I can find.  I'm sure there's a lot of it posted around.  If anyone here is willing to help, that would be awesome.

*Post links here to threads he's started with his drawings/animations
*Post artwork or animations that he's sent you via email
*Um...post words of encouragement or admonishment?

He doesn't know about this thread (yet).  It would be really neat if we could get a bunch of stuff posted before I show him the link.

Sincerely,
Sticky (Zombie's Ladyfriend)

That sucks. I've lost critical work after computer crashes and it is truly dispiriting.

Go to his profile (http://www.clockcrew.cc/talk/member.php?507) and click 'all started threads.'

Plz tell him we miss and love him.

He disabled file backups/recovery on his comp.  So no backups...  

It's usually a matter of reinstalling windows and wiping the C drive.  For whatever reason, most of his artwork/animation stored on the D drive got wiped as well.

I looked through my bookmarks of noteworthy threads and I couldn't find any with ZL's drawings in them, at least as far as ones that weren't deleted in the culling go.

I can't find the Clock Crew Academy subforum anywhere, I sure hope those threads still exist...

Tell him I'll draw him a smiley face if it will make him feel better.

I don't offer to draw many people smiley faces.

Tell him to try to use PC Inspector to recover the "100% completely gone" files. Sometimes it'll pick up the ghost files on the drive. So there is still hope!

I'm fairly certain I saved drawings of ZL's somewhere on my hard drive, I'm currently looking through every art related folder I have on there.

Also seriously, do we not have the Clock Crew academy threads anymore? Those had a ton of his drawings.

Also {{{{Zombie Lincoln}}}}

Thank you, it's a relief to see all these things are saved!

I also lost all my animations, including the incomplete ones I was working on. If I happened to send any of you a .fla file at some point...Though I don't remember if I've ever done that.

Anyway this thread is reminding me that I should hang out here and draw a bunch more!

have you tried one of those un-format recovery programs?
Title: Zombie Lincoln has a problem
Post by: DarkMatterClock on May 22, 2011, 08:59:54 PM
if all you did was format then a majority of the data will be recoverable.  best way is to get a program (i havent done this in some time so i cant reccommend one)  and that will let you explore and capture any files you need.  please do this asap before writing anything new to that drive.

The foxes are his, I remember him posting them in a thread about a children's book he was illustrating.

One time I accidentally formatted both my hard drives because the debian install cd is a piece of shit and ignored me checking to only use one partition. Anyway, non of the linux recovery software did shit so I had to install windows 7 onto an old 30gb ide drive so I could run windows recovery software and back up my two 1tb drives onto a million 4gb sd cards and old mp3 players I had in a drawer. After that I bought an external enclosure and a 1.5tb hard drive.

Also fuck Linux. You can't do shit on it. Can't run two video cards at the same time, can't install to a fucking external drive. I mean you could probably do all that shit but you'd have to write your own drivers or some shit.
