Map.exe crashes at Loading NPC scripts.

Hey everyone sorry to bother I have been gone about 6 months and my server worked previously, but now I cant get it to run at all. Map.exe crashes at the same point every time but nothing has changed on my end do I need to update to some newer files? sorry if this was mentioned before, but I looked around and I didn't see anything that fit my issue.

Update day 2 - I deleted everything and downloaded all new files got the same exception for C++ system error i've done everything i can think of now so if anyone else has any insight i would greatly appreciate it, otherwise i guess i'm just F'd.

I am just gonna put this here in case its useful or helpful to anyone else but its completely out my wheel house, from what i gathered online reading many forums about this issue is that apparently invisible unicode could be causing file crashes. complete gibberish to me but i am a dead head lol. oh and i even removed all c++ files restarted redownloaded and built another fresh server to the T still same exact outcome. \o/
