I've never had that happen, so I suspect it's the method you are following. I use Vanishing Point's (THANKS , John!) free tool available on his web page.

Please go here http://www.vanishingpoint.biz/freeitemdetail.asp?FreeItemID=421 and download Vanishing Point's fine Free Tool. Once you have it saved to your hard drive, point it to your Prop with the embedded object. Press the GO button.

This utility will pull the Object out of the prop and rewrite the prop to point to the new object. ( it will also make a back up of the original, but I've never needed to use it!). This script will place the extracted object in the same folder the prop is in.

Now, move the object into a project specific folder in the Geometries folded, I.e Geometries/VendorName/ProjectName

Edit the prop to point to the new object in the new folder. :Runtime:Geometries:VendorName:ProjectName:objName.obj

**Thanks... Had a prop that was missing the obj and this will help me get it sorted... it's a freebie... **
