pd crashed while I was saving a large patch. now, when I open that patch, about a third of the objects are gone, and ALL of the connections. what the heck happened..
In my experience Pd crashes quite often when I save. In some cases, it crashes _before_ it saves the file, so any change I've made since the last save is lost; in some other cases, it crashes just _after_ saving, so the changes are saved.
It never happened to me that after such a crash I got a corrupted patch or that I loose any object that were present the previous time I had saved the patch. I don't know whether it is your case. Maybe the objects that are gone are those that you had added after the last-but-one save and before the save that triggered the crash.
and am I totally screwed or can I fix it.
If that is the case, I'm afraid there's no fix :(
