HELP - Map not loading

Everytime I try to load my map, the game crashes and it says it encountered a fatal error... what's wrong? Earlier versions were working before... but i made a whole bunch of changes to the new version so im not sure exactly what caused it to start screwing up. Anyone know the cause?

The only consistant cause i know of for fatal errors is units lacking pathing values, like if you try to place a unit without a pathing map it will always give u the fatal error. But at what point in opening the map does it crash?

It'll load about 3/4 of the loading bar and then crash...

I didn't place any units without pathing, though..

i had two custom abilities based off of the same ability (sentry ward), and i figured that might be the cause because i heard somewhere that that caused bugs or something... so I deleted one of them. but im still getting the fatal errors... dammit!

**UPDATE**

Well, I reverted back to an old working version... I redid all the old changes except those 2 abilities, and its working fine now... I don't see why deleting those 2 abilities in the bugged version didnt fix it, then...

**UPDATE**

Lol... looks like I found the problem. I'd put the ability in a Spellbook ability, but I'd had the Maximum Spells in the Spellbook set to 2, and there were 3 spells in the book, so it caused the fatal errors!
