Machine model keeps resetting

I have a replicator clone, and so the machine configuration wizard set me up with the machine model for the replicator bed, which is nice because I can see where my prints will end up.

I recently changed the electronics in my printer for ramps+marlin, and so have reconfigured my machine setup in s3d to match. In particular, my origin is now front left of the bed (marlin standard) rather than the centre of the bed (makerbot standard). It all works well.

The stock STL provided with s3d for the replicator bed has it's origin at the bed centre, so i translated it in meshmixer and saved it out with a different filename, and changed the model file in the preferences tab of s3d. All was fine for a few weeks.

But suddenly, it now keeps resetting itself back to the original makerbot bed model, not my modified one. It happens after i've edited process settings (whether i actually make a change or not), and not every time.

it's quite irritiating!! anyone know why this might be?

thanks
