I'm finding that some of the maps uploaded here will crash or hang WC3 in various ways, and the common attribute is that they have imported .blp icons in use. For example, Angel_Island's Windrunner's Spells will freeze WC3 when I go to add a point to an ability, and Angel_Island's Admiral's Spells will hang 2/3 of the way through the map loading progress bar. If I delete all .blp's in the Import Manager, the maps load and play fine (albeit with broken icon graphics).
Anyone know what might be happening? I've certainly played maps using custom icons before, and can import and use them OK (I tried GooS's excellent lightning storm icon to test). So what would be particular about these maps that would somehow make their .blp's hang my Warcraft?
My WC3:FT is up-to-date (1.23.0.6352, no updates prompted when signing on to BNet). The only thing out of the ordinary is that I'm on a Mac... *ducks the inevitable thrown bricks*
