    So I spend about 2 hours making a camera path, and in trying to avoid this kind of thing, I wanted to exit so that It would save so i wouldn't lose it. Well, it didn't save, because when I opened it back up the path and everything was deleted. Any advice/things I'm missing? I would really like to get all that work back...

    You won't get that work back because you never saved it. I suggest reading through all of the docs before pouring multiple hours of work into it. I'd also suggest, before you spent multiple hours, to first try everything with small samples (open replay, create small, sample path, exit) to verify everything works as you expect it to.

    I'm not sure what piece of software made people think that exit = save but that's not how it is. If you exit, you exit the replay. If you save (see link above), you save, no need to exit.

    When exiting on the version that I have it say's saving... wait to exit(or something similar). Then it exits. I also did a test, and have read through the docs. I guess I just missed it. **Completely my fault**, but still annoying. Either way I learned a lot how to use the program. I've used other video editing programs before and they all had the save= exit functionality, but it was my bad for just assuming.
