Hi Kiwi-Hawk,
If you can reproduce the timeout fault when loading projects, can you please send me the log file afterwards? You can get to it using the 'All programs->Bundysoft->L3DT [version]->L3DT logs' shortcut in the Windows start menu. That link will open a directory in which you will find a file called 'log.txt'. With the logfile, I will be able to work out what is going wrong. Please collect the log file after the fault occurs in L3DT, and before re-opening the program, as the log file is overwritten at the start of each session.
By the way, which heightfield file format were you using when you exported from the previous version and imported into the current version, and got a difference in vertical scaling? My psychic debugging skills suggest that formats either doesn't encode the horizontal or vertical scaling (or both), so you get a different result when you re-import it. If so, it's not a compatibility bug in L3DT; it's just that some file formats suck for heightfield data (namely raw, bmp, png, jpg...in fact, pretty much any image format other than GeoTIFF). However, if you were using a proper heightfield file format, then some further investigation is merited.
Best regards,
Aaron
