So I'm trying to put down a bunch of ideas to use for the Blizz contest, and when I opened up my trusty map analyzer, I got "Unexpected format for MapInfo" errors. After doing a bit of research, I found out that this exact same thing happened before when Blizzard changed the format for maps, and I suspect that they have changed the format once again.
So what I did was I tried to use the analyzer on my map which brought the problem to my attention. Then I made a small throwaway map with only the basics and tried running that through with no luck. Finally I opened up a new map with the exact dimensions of Agria Valley and copied all the terrain, units, doodads, and starting points over into the new map and ran that through, and no dice.
Is anyone else having this problem? If so, is the tool's creator even still active, and if he is does he know that his tool has been broken?
Well I'll go ahead and post the link that has a temporary fix, seeing as the code for the latest version (1.4.6 unofficial) wasn't ever publicly released and dimfish has disappeared from the tl forums several months ago. Here's hoping for a better fix in the future.
