Turn on ignore version.

and if that doesn’t work keep ignore version on but try exporting as a .ma instead of a .mb. .ma’s are more robust and retain more information and are less likely to corrupt. The only downside is the file size is larger.



It’s never done! AHhh!

… .ma’s ... retain more information

Unless you know something I don’t, I’m pretty sure that’s incorrect.
