Awesome map...but has WAR3.EXE ERROR every time...help!

I spent months making this map back on the 1.15 patch. Then i come back a year later, add some stuff to it, and it seems to work fine,

but it has a stupid war3.exe error NO MATTER WHAT and ANY random point while playing the game.

I mean i could be buying a potion, or clicking the "menu" button

Would someone PLEASE help me with this problem, i have left a copy of my map here, because i dont want to have wasted all that time making an awesome footmen map for it to be wasted

Open it and check whatever you need to.

Well it could be an error of the patch. It happened to me. When v1.18 my maps from 1.07 (and all that stuff) were all screwed.

so what do i just scrap my work and say OH WELL?

Have you tried saving it after the new patch has been installed? Odds are a trigger or somthing got broken. BLizzard always implements a lot of new things with each patch, sometimes some very drastic changes, changes that might conflict. No, you don;t need to scrap your work, but you will need to go through it piece by piece.

oh yeah i did save it since then. i have updated a few things and i thought it might be my updates that it was...so i played an old version without the updates and get the same error

if someone could play it once or twice and tell me any possible reason it could be i would appreciate that...because the errors are random for me so i dont know which triggers to even look at

hmmmm last time I got that error message was *flashback* when I made a trigger loop forever (I can't spell the harder words. *sad*). Or if Warcraft III was just pissed at me.

Vgsatomi, easily said, but this is how i lost a map of mine - endymion arena (it's uploaded in case anyone would like to fix it) I went through trigger by trigger, but nothing i could do to fix the crashes.
