Testing new map, game crashes on map selection

Using ScmDraft2
Created the basics of my map and was going to test the location mapping. Saved the map as both .scm and .scx
Single player UMS, as soon as I try to select either map the game crashes and gives a 'What happened' bug report. (yes, only those two maps)
I read through Heinermann's sticky, I checked my error's folder, it was blank.
I tried to open the map in the classic editor but that crashes as well.

Without any error logs or bug reports, I have no idea why it crashes my game and won't open in original editor.

Maybe one of you can figure it out or get an error code or something.
Thanks in advance for any helpers out there.

You have invalid dimensions. Maps can only have widths and heights of 64, 96, 128, 192, and 256*. You have 180 for the height, which is why it crashes. Scmdraft allows you enter in custom values for the width and height, but Staredit doesn't, which is why you can't open it in there.

*Technically you can have other values such as 12 or 20, but those require you to play a map beforehand so they're not the best values to use if you plan on playing this map with others.
