What's the error message, it doesnt sound like something I've seen before, although all the user maps I made in the earlier versions used to crash with the "darwinia.exe has encountered an error and needs to close". I think it was my bad as things worked after removing certain buildings.

Your blackbox indicates that it is trying to find a map that does not exist.

1) Make sure that you are using a profile that has not been used for any other mod or the original game. You may want to create a new profile, or set profile to none or AccessAllAreas in preferences.txt.
2) Make sure that every map specified in game.txt has a map file in levels/
3) Make sure that you have spelled everything correctly.
