I need some time off...
Hey everyone, OrbOrigin here. As you may already guessed from the title and the photos, I’m in a bit of a distressed state. On April 10, I woke up to find the hard drive that contains ALL of the 3D content for A Mother’s Love completely unopenable/corrupted. I spent the next few days searching online on how to fix this problem, asking friends and families if they knew anything, but nothing that was recommended was working. No matter what I did, it was still telling me that I needed to format the drive in order for me to use it and I refused to do so. Yesterday I took it to the store and they’re currently working on recovering the data. They told me they’ll get back to me in the next following week, so in the meantime I’ll be pausing everything and the billing cycle. I am sorry as this is only causing further delays in the production of A Mother’s Love. Lately I feel like things have been just going downhill for me, and it’s pretty exhausting. I also want to apologize for not being as active in answering personal messages and interacting with you all in the comment sections in the posts. I read them all, and even if I’m not messaging back yet, just know that I’m not ignoring you and I truly appreciate you taking a moment of your time to send/comment anything.
That is all I have for now. I'll let you all know more when I get an update from the store. Wishing for the best on the data recovery. See you all soon.

i would recommend getting a NAS so even then if one drive dies you still have all your data
When will we see part16?im so looking forward to it.plz.....hurry🥺
Is any other ways to pay for buying the game,like Steam or gog or whatever
Orb, will the call Nicole by first name be fixed, I wmnrioned before, but then update came out and wasn't fixed, it has to be exactly 12 times which seems like a bug, cause if we call the 13th time it doesn't work and we will call her last name still. Please fix
So long not any update 😓
i hope you will recover all the data from the disk and wish you luck for your future.
I think he recovered his datas
Hi, you may want to check the R-Studio utility to recover your files. Years ago, my external drive went into a similar status and I recovered ALL my files (my collection of music videos) using this utility. There was physically nothing wrong with the drive, just the partition map was messed up with. Just my two cents... https://www.r-studio.com/
Fixed it, should save the data in Drive.
Its alright orb we've all had to deal with stuff like this in one form of another. Creating is a tough gig, self care is important. Try getting a massage while you're on break they work wonders, I have one scheduled for Saturday and sometimes they for in perfectly with an increased demanding schedule
hey bro we need a discord server please join there :)
I mean I feel sorry for you and everything, but bro.. you make awesome content, but have you never heard of Raid or HDDsentinel?
Sorry to hear that. But no worries, just take your time.

Have a rest, and i hope you'll recover the datas...
Take your time. Rest! Recuperate! Heads up. Everything will be OK! There are many ways to return lost HDD. ...and next time RAID 1 yes!

don't give up please do not give up your game is worth waiting for and I would be most distressed if you gave up. I really hope things work out and you can recover your data.
Just hold on - wish You good luck for resolving the issues!
No problem, Orb. Take all the time you need. I hope everything goes well and they can recover your files.
I was in a similar situation less than a week ago. Though I did lose my 16TB data. Hope you get it recovered and take as long as you need.
You are also a developer
Everything will be fine
Take as long as you need, we can wait. We are here for you And thank you for letting us know.
Take all the time you need
Your time-off request is granted (lolz) Man, tough break - I had a RAID 0 z-e-r-o Fail about three years ago and thought all has lost! But I shipped it off to a data recovery place and got Most of it back - but $$. Now run RAID 5 and could get ALL of it back on future fails
No problem dude, you have your loyal fans here. We're not going anywhere. Life is full of the road bumps and potholes. You'll get through it and back up and running.
relax time np
Sorry to hear that - hoping the best for digital recovery but even then, the artist, you, are forever the most important asset with a blessing for creative story telling. Take all the time you need and be at peace when life gives the crap sandwich - you can give that sandwich a Falcon Punch with a roundhouse finisher and your supporters will cheer you on for as long as you're inspired to create and you're happy ;)
Sorry about your luck. Hope you have a relaxing weekend.
Please take a look at this site. Steve Gibson has been around forever and he knows his buisness better than most I own his spinright program and i have drives that are 20 years old and still working. https://www.grc.com/sr/spinrite.htm
I've had success with TestDisk before. It's a small program that runs on most systems including RaspBerry PI's which is what I used. I ran a scan for files and extracted all I could before making any changes.
No problem, I hope they can recover your files.
hey DEV, did you try this? Please take a look at this video, maybe you can get your data out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCkOVDHfFJM&list=WL&index=7 .... I did exactly like you see in this video when my M2 drive went "fire", I got ALL my data out, all of it. Try it out.. Good luck
Maybe you should look into companies that specializes in file recovery
