Portals not working 1.051

I've just updated Constructor to the latest patch on TDN...and my portals stopped working.

Followed the guide to install a clean 1.0.3, and then overwrite with the files from TDN.

Tried to unistall and reinstall 1.0.3...and see below;

* Export with internal -> crash on export
* Export with map2dif_plus_tse -> crash on import to engine
* Open *.csx, save as *.map, close and open *.map in Constructor, export with internal -> portals work!


Patched to 1.0.51 again...

* Export with internal -> crash on export
* Export with map2dif_plus_tse -> crash on import to engine
* Open *.csx, save as *.map, close and open *.map in Constructor, export with internal -> PORTALS DON'T WORK!

Does this mean I should 'revert' to 1.0.3 (can't seem to find the 1.0.4 anymore btw...) or am I modelling in a bad manner?! Is there some really important issues that I should know of?

Anyone up for testing my *.csx?

I use 1.0.51, regularly, The largest issue with the portals is there is a hole somewhere, I have 6 portals in 1 model work properly, once i fixed the holes. So there shouldnt be any issues with 1.0.51 itself.

There might be with the map2dif_plus_tgea exporter. I have the same problem in Quark as well as constructor with this version of the exporter. The older versions of map2dif_plus_tgea seem to be fine.
