When I use Transporter I will often write over an existing previous version of a file so it will link correctly when the EIAS project is reopened. When I save the file from Transporter it will ask if I want to replace the existing file. But the the file doesn't get replaced and instead Transporter creates a new file with a seemingly random 8 digit number and no extension. I can rename the new file and it all works correctly.

It's a minor inconvenience, but it's putting a snag in my workflow.
I am using Transporter 5.5.3
OS X 10.6.3 and a 8 core MacPro

Is anyone else getting this?

thanks,

I just tried with Transporter 5.5 (EIAS 7.01) and it worked as expected.
Will try tonight with 5.53 (I suppose it comes with V8)

Actually 5.5.3 came with (I think) EIAS 6.5, Transporter 5.5.4 came with 7 & 8. I don't use 554 because it is too slow with big models. It wants to recalculate normals whether you tell it to or not. It can take hours to convert very big models as compared to seconds with 5.5.3
