Different result from when re-opening ?

I will put this initially down to user error but I find this a bit odd.
I’ve had a scene calculating for around 20 hours, the final result is ideal for what I needed.
I saved the project, then used the simplify tool to reduce the scene polys, then unwrap, texture and finally exported as an FBX.
The model looks fine for my needs, as it’s helping with placement of proxy geo.
I didn’t bother saving this because it was a test of simplification.

(all good because it’s saved and we can tidy it up and put our own stuff in).

However, when I reopened the original un-simplified scene I can see that it’s not displaying the same result.

As seen here:

Is that something I’ve done wrong?
I’ve not cleared the cache or changed anything else.

did you make sure you have the correct component selected?

By default the first component (if there are multiple) is selected.

I’ve not read about this yet :oops:

I saw this thread below, and I’m just reading now:
[NOT A BUG] camera alignment lost when reopening project

There are 2 models in there but very minimal differences.
