"Main map file could not be opened" Need solutions

I was working on a map for a year and a half and when it was ready for release, that error appeared on my unprotected version and messed everything up before i manage to fix one major glitch.

Any solutions to this problem?

So these are the options which are not fixes for me
-Using and MPQ program
-Using backups
-Using testeditmap.w3x
-Try and use an unprotection program
-Using WE unlimited to open it

Well it happened once to me, I remember I imported some icons and I closed world edit and opened the map again, but suddenly it tells me: "unit or level data cant be found" or something like that, thats why I dont trust icons so much now, for the solution well I dunno if none of those worked then I really dont know

'Main map file cannot be opened' should really say 'This map was protected'

That proves your ignorance, purplepoot.

Meanwhile, i'm still looking for a solution.

Same thing happened to me... i figured out that (if your using WE Unlimited) it doesnt correctly load cliff types, so you have to go in and manually add em. ;D, that is if model loading stops at 40/XXX
