Error: No object name: bounds

I've been successfully exporting dts files from maya using maya2dts, but am now running into an error. After i select my mesh, triangulate it and delete it's history, I open the dts utility and click the "Create Bounding Box" button. A bounding box appears, but it's not centered around the object and the error log in maya shows "Error: No object matches name: bounds."

Also, I cannot Lock the bounding box. If I change the name of the bounding box from the default "boundsShape" to just "bounds" I can lock the box but when I try and export the whole thing I get a popup error from the dts utility that says "No bounds found"

Any ideas? Something must be messed up somewhere but I can't seem to find what, as I've followed all instructions for export in Maya and have been doing it just fine until now.

Thanks!!!
