I've already posted this in a different forum but I'll put it here too;

I've been working on this game called Aeroblast for almost a year now, and some of the sprites have. A ton of costumes. Recently, my dialogue box sprite was corrupted by the overflow error (when scratch is has too many costumes, it replaces some of these with a gray box and a question mark until said costume is loaded.) This usually works fine, except that I accidentally saved over this and now 85 of my dialouge boxes need to be redone. I'm really annoyed/mad, especially since Aeroblast was supposed to release on November 7th. Does anyone know of a way to recover these?

And if it doesn't compromise anything, could the Scratch Team possibly find a less obtrusive way to keep these costumes deloaded without these side effects?

Please help, I'm really desperate here.

Thanks,
Firefly

If you have a back-up copy of your project that is recent enough, you can open it signed out or at https://llk.github.io/scratch-gui/develop​, and export the sprite that has the dialogue boxes. Then you can upload it into your online project to replace the version of the sprite that was saved not loaded

I didn't make any backup copies. Does it autobackup?

This was a bug in April 2021. See this for recovery: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/503423/
