System Information
WIN10 GTX650

Blender Version
2.78a e8299c8
Worked: (optional)

Short description of error
I can't find anything I built and painted ,but file's size seems like not empty.
The last time I opened it successfully ,I was trying to render the grease pencil animation, then, blender crashed.
I tried to append data from it,but nothing in it ,and when I was to back to index,blender nearly crashed again.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Just please help me get the animation data back, if it's still in it,it's small but I need it very much.thx.

Hi, sorry but if you can't upload it there is little that can be done. As a last resource, can you try to upload to www.pasteall.org and paste the link? But try to upload the file again to see if it works a second time, after a restart perhaps?

Hi,

You mention some crashing issues when trying to render: IIRC, there have been some recent fixes for crashes related to sequencer stuff.

A few debugging steps that you can try (these would be the things I'd check for in your file first anyway):

Is Grease Pencil "turned on" for the editor in question? (Hint: Check the properties (NKEY) region to see if the checkbox on the Grease Pencil layers panel header is enabled - It should be, otherwise, turn it on)
Are all the layers set to be visible?
If you have more than one palette, do they all have the same number of colours (and with the same names)?
Is the opacity for any layer set to 0?
If you go to the Grease Pencil mode in the Dope Sheet Editor, do you see any keyframes there?
If you go to the "Datablocks" view in the Outliner, expand the "Grease Pencil" section, and start digging into the datablocks listed there, is there any data under their layers -> layer -> frames -> frame -> strokes -> stroke -> ...?

As Dalai says, if it's anything else, we'd need to see the file to be able to figure out what's going wrong. Hope that helps. :)

@BillFeng that's a bogus file. It has nothing on it (all bytes are zero I believe).

Are you able to reproduce this from scratch?

maybe not.All I remember is that I didn't know I should use"OpenGL Animation Render",and I tried another way to render it .
All bytes are zero... It seems like I won't get my origin data back.
Sorry for I can't give useful imformation to find the bug.
And thank all of you,guys.
