Map Crashing Problem

Alright, its been awhile since i've posted here, but here it goes.

A new map that I am currently working on (and fairly far into it mind you) is crashing on me everytime i try to run the test map function in the world editor. Thinking it might have something to possibly do with my editor i went and tried to play it in wc3 under single player, and the map crashed again. This is really frustrating me as I do NOT want to restart mapping this and am hoping someone can help me fix this problem.

Here are some key ideas that could possibly be resulting in the crash. I had done the import all trigger method from a previous map I had created into this one, just because the concept is nearly the same. So I was thinking instead of just putting in brand spankin new triggers of basically the same degree why not just copy in all the ones on my previous map using the "import all triggers" function in the trigger editor, so I did that. *Note I am currently only using about 5 triggers from it now (yes I know kinda a waste when you think about it)*

Next I had imported all unit settings from a way older map that never got completed, but because the new map I am working on is involving the same lore I figured why not just bring in all that data into my map to save some valuable time.

These are basically the only source I can stem the problem to, unless maybe it could be because I had also saved it a few times with the New Gen World Editor by vexorian and am now currently using the regular editor to save and put in my edits. Please I am hoping someone can come up with a solution to my problem and if it has to come to me sending the map to someone to look at I'll do that too, just it'll have to come in the form of a PM or email because I really dont want the off chance of this circulating around and losing all credit. Thank you.

Is it one of those pesky Fatal Errors?
Warcraft has lots of those and I have no clue how to get rid of them... There are people who might know, however.

Yes it is one of those Fatal Errors and if it's needed I'll try to post a screenie or give info on what the error says.

NewGen Editor maps are not compatible with vanilla WE maps, especially if you're using libraries and structs and the likes.

Wow thank you, it worked. Now for my next question, will other people still be able to play my map even if they dont have NewGen WE and will I have to now use the NewGen warcraft to run it?
