Corrupted player list?

Alright, I'm having some serious WE troubles. One I posted earlier in the week, and now this.

Suddenly, upon testing a map using NewGen, it decided not to load. It booted WC3 and went to the opening screen. I tried to load the map manually, and it showed no players in the list. Normally it shows the open slots and the computer players. That section was completely blank, and when you clicked Start Game, the menu scrolled up to the top of the screen like normal, then it scrolled right back down to where I was.

Now, when testing, it doesn't even boot WC3 successfully. Has anyone run into this problem before? I'm worried it may have corrupted my map.

I figured it out! It was a trigger function added with UMSWE in NewGen, which is no longer supported. Using that those triggers cause the map to not load. In my case, it was a trigger for a display message, which was to display a new line (normally not available in WE). I removed that function, and the map loads fine.
