Patch 1.24 was released to fix a Warcraft Custom Map Virus, which was a exploit by Hackers to lure players into fake Dota Maps. Players would then unknowingly download the virus, and once the game started, allow the hacker to access their computer and steal CD keys, plant keyloggers, and insert any number of viruses.
In the process of fixing this problem, the patch also fixed the H2I Return bug, which was an inconsistency in the way the World Editor and Warcraft III handled function returns. However, many maps used H2I so when the patch was released, a countless amount of good maps were lost .
As of right now there is no solution to the problem (atleast to my knowledge), however the guys with dota are experiencing the same issue and...knowing dota players, are probably working day and night to get the problem solved. Hopefully when they do, they'll inform everyone of a solution, but you can't be sure. But look on the bright side, the new patch raised the bnet map file minimum from 4 to 8MB (did someone mention High Rez Models? :O)
Ghan has said he has fixed this. Monovertex please confirm this fix. This was only a problem with people that had signatures in the upper levels like not the special members but the respected members.
