As I noted in my last post on this, the file format changed with v2.7, 
so any stacks used with the v2.6.1 engine must first be saved in the 
older format.

The engine has a built-in property to govern this: the stackFileVersion. 
  Just set that to "2.4" (the version of the file format used through 
v2.6.x) and you should be fine.  I hope.  Let me know if not.

That said, as long as Rev ships with the v2.6.1 engine it should 
continue to provide a preference for setting the file format.  I would 
consider that omission to be a bug.
