    This is a known bug in Worldcraft.  Just run Worldcraft without loading a map (ie, don't double-click your map, just run wc.exe).  Then turn off the option that says "Load default window positions with maps" (under the General tab, you may need to click "Use independent window configurations" first).  Now you should be able to load your map with no problems.

    If this doesn't work, PM Merkaba and he may have an answer for you.

    I've had to do that a few times with a couple of my maps. Comes and goes randomly, but Flay's got the answer.

    it's usually an issue with the sprite rendering, especially animated sprites such as fire. Make sure you don't have the camera pointing at these when you shut down worldcraft in future

    reducing the viewing distance helps too sometimes, its just that initial render of the 3d window that makes it go boom.
