Map Maker Issues

Well, I make maps a lot, and this is the first time I've been unable to solve a problem myself.
Here's the issue:

I have two maps that this applies to.
I was exporting map A, it went smoothly. No problems so far.
Exporting map B, and as soon as it was roughly half-way the entire export progress, FH crashed.
Flustered, I opened FH up again and it crashed.
So, I saved all my meshes and map files into another folder, and redownloaded.
Placing the files correctly, I could open FH again.
So I went to export the maps again.
They wouldn't open.

Ever single time I went to open the map files, FH would crash.
I could enter them from Cape just fine, but map maker wouldn't let me.
I deleted the mesh the Exporting crashed on, I found a particle in my my_objects folder and deleted it, I've done everything I've done before.
Still doesn't work, and I'm too lazy to restart all my progress.


Any help here?

While I'm not very experienced when it comes to maps, see if the followin' will at least shed some light on yer situation:

If you keep trying to type the heightmap into the mapmaker, it may crash if certain things weren't done correctly such as:
~513x513
~grayscale
~no alpha channel
~only one layer
~named "mapnameTerrain"

If anythin' I've listed above doesn't help, I'll forage around for additional answers. I wish ye' luck, madam.

Thank you for looking around for me, Vespian, but the height map isn't my problem.
I can enter the terrain file into a brand new file and it works fine, same as the mask.
