This is an issue that started appearing with the safe mode patch.
That update seems to contain older versions of the editors and the e3 maps (which are basically upsilon with a few extra inaccessible unfinished rooms, The e3 maps have been added and then removed in some other updates, IIRC they were there on release, but then were removed, and then popped up again with the Tobii update but were removed again on a later patch).
In my case the update also overwrote all of the editors and the default SOMA maps.
The "new" editors are actually missing some features, such as object placement parameters. [Image: bJG1JL5.png] Most of the editors also lost their icons for some reason.
Luckily I still had an older version of the editor and asked Rom to upload it on the wiki: https://wiki.frictionalgames.com/hpl3/co...cy_editors , also I mentioned that people should replace the current level editor with that one in one of my hpl3 tutorials.
I also think that the model editor in general seems to crash more often but that might be just a coincidence.

Also, unrelated but.... if you're gonna do an update to make sure that the latest editors are used again, can you also include the teaser map from the 2013 trailer? Most of the modding community would really like to take a look at how assets were used in there.
