Motion 3 Keeps Crashing When Opening File

Question

Motion 3 keeps crashing when I try to open a file that has alot of moving text. I have words that keep falling like rain onto other words. Once in a blue moon I can get it to open and can edit it, but after I save it's a crap shoot to when it will open again. Any suggestions?
I have tried putting the text into another program (Adobe Illustrator) but it doesn't work as nice or as quickly. Thanks.

Answer 1

IMpossible to tell from here but try this:
If it gets opened, immediately save a copy. Quit Motion
In the Finder, make at least three or four more copies of the copy. Leave the original alone.
Open one of the copies, delete half of the layers.
Close it.
Open another copy. Delete the other half of the layers.
See where this is going? You're going to do some binary test to try to figure out which layers are making problems.
